Drudge: Obama Greeted in Mexico by Man who died days later of flu symptoms
Drudge Report ^ | 04.25.2009 | Drudge

Posted on 04/25/2009 2:52:45 PM PDT by Cicero

The money paragraph to which Drudge links (Bloomberg):

"The first case was seen in Mexico on April 13. The outbreak coincided with the President Barack Obama’s trip to Mexico City on April 16. Obama was received at Mexico’s anthropology museum in Mexico City by Felipe Solis, a distinguished archeologist who died the following day from symptoms similar to flu, Reforma newspaper reported. The newspaper didn’t confirm if Solis had swine flu or not."

Better put everyone who has had direct contact with Obama in isolation as well. I guess that would include all the Congressional leaders, Obama's cabinet and staff and various banking and financial leaders.

Then by global warmers logic, Obama's is the cause of the flu outbreak

I don’t know about tap water. We are on our own well here, and I THINK that chlorination would kill the virus, but I’m not an expert on that.

If there’s any doubt, you can always boil it.

I am wondering if I should try to lay in some tamiflu. I think there’s a generic version that’s not too expensive.

Problem is, if this really gets going, it could go in waves over a fairly long period of time. But I am also thinking about staying out of public places if it spreads.

Unique Strain: Is the Swine Flue Outbreak a Bio-Terror Attack?

In a discussion this morning with a cell biologist and medical doctor working at Johns Hopkins, my friend thought this 4-part flu combination is highly unusual and looks like it could be man-made. Especially because it has an avian strain.

Not with the CDC, though.

Google the herbal product, Sambucol. It is an elderberry extract that mitigates many flu symptoms, turning a 7 day bout of flu into a 2 day bout, typically. I learned about it on another thread. This is similar to sambucus, a different brand of extract. Apparently elderberry has been in use for 2500 years as a traditional flu cure, and it appears to alleviate the symptoms rather well. It is unknown what this will do for the present strain.

I’m going shopping for some tomorrow to have it on hand just in case.

Here’s a discussion, see the comments under Ecology.

Yep. The 1918 Spanish Flu Pandemic killed off 50 million evil, CO2 exhaling, planet-warming humans.

Why was it called "Spanish Flu"?

Because it first received widespread media attention in Spain.

The flu epidemic had started during World War I in 1918. The warring countries had press censorship and censored reports of outbreaks of the flu. Neutral Spain has no wartime press censorship so the rest of the World learned about the flu from Spanish press reports of a flu epidemic in Spain.
