cavanami Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2009/04/28/Swine-Flu.aspx This is NOT the First Swine Flu Panic The last time was in 1976... More People Died From the Swine Flu Vaccine than Swine Flu! Where did This Mysterious New Animal-Human Flu Strain Come From? Just last month I reported on the story that the American pharmaceutical company Baxter was under investigation for distributing the deadly avian flu virus to 18 different countries... Another example of the less sterling integrity of Big Pharma is the case of Bayer, who sold millions of dollars worth of an injectable blood-clotting medicine to Asian, Latin American, and some European countries in the mid-1980s, even though they knew it was tainted with the AIDS virus.... Avoid Hospitals and Vaccines In this particular case, I'd also recommend you stay away from hospitals unless you're having an emergency, as hospitals are prime breeding grounds for infections of all kinds, and could be one of the likeliest places you could be exposed to this new bug. Vaccines will not be available for six months at the minimum but when available they will be ineffective and can lead to crippling paralysis like Guillain-Barré Syndrome just as it did in the 70s.

USVirgin Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 Looks like Egypt saw this as a great opportunity to do some pig killing: [color:blue]CAIRO (AP) â?? Egypt began slaughtering the roughly 300,000 pigs in the country Wednesday as a precaution against swine flu even though no cases have been reported here, infuriating farmers who blocked streets and stoned vehicles of Health Ministry workers who came to carry out the government's order.

I trained with one in the Army. He said he'd moved to the US because he got tired of the discrimination against Christians. Wonder if the mullahs massacred the feathered creatures to prevent bird fever. p.s. If "swine flu" is Allah's revenge against infidels, the Almighty must have a strange sense of humour by letting the Israelis beat the crap out of his "true" people every time they fight a war.

Sakai Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 Flashermac, 1948-1956-1967-1973-1982 are just Allah's ways to humble is followers because they didn't shout Allahu Akbar loud enough. Tsahal would surely have been defeated if the 'believers' had shouted loud enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sakai Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 Read in the BKK post that the Thai authorities decided to give 100K face masks to taxi drivers and tourists. -> bad foreigners bring the flu, of course no Thai citizen coming from abroad could carry the virus, only foreigners are a threat.

Flashermac Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 Latest news is the cloth surgical masks are not that effective. Instead, the Ministry of Health is issuing hundreds of thousands of plastic bags for people to put over their heads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sakai Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 Great, Thai authorities also need to remain the people wearubg the plastic bags to tie a knot around the neck to keept the mask in place. Of course, no holes must be allowed in the plastic bag otherwise they will catch the flu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
