Swine Flu Pandemic has begun, first in over 40 years how many deaths will have to take place in order to?

Q: Finally increase our medicare spending so that new vaccinations are constantly made, and are spread out across hospitals and clinics nation wide?30,000 flu deaths a year isn’t enough.500,000 from the influenza of 1920s wasn’t enough.So how many people will have to die in order to finally do something about it? 1 million? 2 million? 500 million maybe?A neat thing about viruses is that they are a prodigy of Dawkins Theory. They evolve and mutate at a unfathomed rate which we can see in real time, and the nature is to go from host to host infecting and ultimately killing the host and move on.The virus has already spread significantly through the United States and the world. It is in whats known as phase 5 which means, it has spread from a specific origin and went world wide.That is very bad, especially if the virus evolves or mutates into a even more deadly strain lets say it becomes airborne can you imagine the catastrophe if that happened? Millions will die with out a doubt.Shouldn’t we take action now, and not what for something like this to happen?This swine flu could be the black horsemen of the apocalypse, surely Christians couldn’t overlook this.Belle the swine flu is not airborne. If it was AIRBORNE you can get the virus just by breathing.The virus is transmitted by in taking it. Mostly because someone doesn’t wash their hands.The Swine Flu can only be contracted by direct contact.

A: I survived the swine flu epidemic in 1958/59, I would not wish that on anyone. But if they refuse to take it seriously they just have to accept the consequences. As to all the scare tactics, so far this swine flu is no more deadly than the regular flu outbreaks every year. What scares the doctors is that it is most deadly among young people who have had no exposure to any swine flu.

Normal flu kills more than swine flu!!?

Q: why are people making such a big deal about swine flu?I read that “With seasonal flu, we see in the United States over 30 million cases. We see 200,000 hospitalizations and, on average, 36,000 deaths.” and im not exactly sure how many people have died this year from swine flu but i know that its no where near that number.So can someone tell me why the big deal?

A: right now it dosent seem to be a big thing but viruses are known to evolve fast and mutate. years ago, there was also a flu pandemic like now but wasn’t serious but a year later, the same virus striked back killing millions. thats why people dont want to take the risk right now and try to find more about the swine flu.

When the great race for swine flu vaccine commences, will you remember you don’t need to get a vaccine if…?

Q: …you realize the whole invention of the “threat” has been overblown right from the start to make the public panic and believe a vaccine is mandatory to prevent contracting a new strain of influenza that is somehow more deadly than other types? The truth is H1N1 has already shown to be no more deadly, no more contageous, no more a threat, no more a pandemic than any other flu virus out there. Yet, you see the media keeps plugging stories, keeps confusing people about how deadly it is, misquotes so-called “experts,” keeps trying to predict a future disaster, etc. If someone thinks I’m wrong, and you have some form of information to the contrary, tell me how you know your source of information was not planted by the pharmaceutical company soon to sell millions of vials each containing what is supposed to be a “swine flu vaccine”–a product that if they do not sell will be profit down the drain.Even the Centers for Disease Control website has ridiculously conflicting info. From the CDC:”Are there human infections with novel H1N1 virus in the U.S.?Yes. Human infections with the new H1N1 virus are ongoing in the United States. Most people who have become ill with this new virus have recovered without requiring medical treatment. ” –Then they say:”While the disease seen in the current novel H1N1 flu outbreak has been mild for many people, it has been severe and even fatal for others. There is no way to predict with certainty what the outcome will be for an individual…”–getting scarier. Finally, they say this:”The information analyzed by CDC supports the conclusion that novel H1N1 flu has caused greater disease burden in people younger than 25 years of age than older people. At this time, there are few cases and few deaths reported in people older than 64 years old, WHICH IS UNUSUAL [my emphasis] when compared with seasonal flu. However, pregnancy and other previously recognized high risk medical conditions from seasonal influenza appear to be associated with increased risk of complications from this novel H1N1. These underlying conditions include asthma, diabetes, suppressed immune systems, heart disease, kidney disease, neurocognitive and neuromuscular disorders and pregnancy.”–that means ultimately there is only a small portion of the population truly “at risk” for deadly effects from influenza, and it’s not just “swine flu.” But this is nothing new. Before anyone started to panic about “swine flu” the CDC reveals, “Each year, in the United States, on average 36,000 people die from flu-related complications and more than 200,000 people are hospitalized from flu-related causes…Over 90% of deaths and about 60 percent of hospitalization occur in people older than 65.” http://www.cdc.gov/H1N1flu/qa.htmSo when the great race to get a swine flu vaccine commences, will you understand you more than likely don’t “need” it, and the whole invention of the “threat” has been overblown right from the start to make the public panic and believe a vaccine is somehow mandatory?

A: I don’t do vaccines. I got the flu shot once. instead of getting a tiny case of the flu, I got it full force. Bullshit. Just like the Cervical Cancer Vaccine, they don’t tell you that it gives you a higher risk for other cancers. I’m against vaccinations, except for what you must have to attend school (Hepatitis, etc). I agree, its just a media scare. Anything for attention and to get the channel more views.
