One interesting thing to ponder. I was trying to buy some N95 masks at a medical supply store in my area today. They are the only masks that guarantee the prevention of the virus from entering your nose and mouth. They were completely SOLD OUT! The owner said the N95 masks would be out of stock for months. She told me that the CDC is stockpiling them...Either someones putting on a good show or they are very concerned about what is possibly coming.
WHO stated that ‘All of humanity is under threat’ from a global flu pandemic. Not to go into scare mode, but I did some reading on the spanish flu last night. Apparently the SF came in 3 waves. It was also an H1N1 swine flu that hit in the spring of 1918 in a mild form. It swept again in the fall and winter and that is when it was most deadly. I pray the patterns are not similar.
Because Spain is in a seperate WHO region and their cases are transmitting within the community, they will probably raise the level to 6 soon. We’ll see. What I find strange is why WHO keeps lowering the infetion & death rate, which is different from the CDC.
or possibly playing up the crisis to push through their nominee (Sebelius) which got approved this week, AND to scare the legislators to approve the massive health care take-over and spend-a-thon.
