Swine Flu Silliness

It would be funny if it weren't so fatally serious....

"Woman is 11th swine flu death in US" by Associated Press | May 25, 2009

NEW YORK - The woman, who was in her 50s, had other health conditions....

Oh, yeah, the lying and misrepresentations? Not funny.

Mitchell Wiener, an assistant public school principal who died May 17, was the city's first death from the virus. The 55-year-old had been sick for several days....

Not what he died from!

The virus has coursed through the city's schools and even reached its jail system....

Sounds MAN-MADE more and more every day!

"Swine flu genes may have circulated undetected for years" by Randolph E. Schmid, Associated Press | May 23, 2009

At which "Defense" lab?

WASHINGTON - Genes included in the new swine flu may have been circulating undetected in pigs for at least a decade, according to researchers who have sequenced the genomes of more than 50 samples of the virus.

I don't eat pork, and I would advise you against it as well.

The findings suggest that pig populations need to be more closely monitored in the future for emerging influenza viruses, said a team led by Rebecca Garten of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in a report released yesterday by the journal Science.

Oh, so that's what this is: the LIFE FORM GRID of the GLOBALISTS.

Of course, not one pig is sick, but that's beside the scare, 'er, point.

First detected last month, at least 42 countries now have confirmed the virus in more than 11,000 people - although those are only the cases tested, and authorities say many more have been sickened. Mexico has reported 75 swine flu deaths, the United States 10, and Canada and Costa Rica one each.

Those raced-based charges the blogs rail about starts to look pretty lucid now, don't it?

How the new flu originated has taken a back burner to the more pressing work of treating the sick and trying to create a vaccine.

Yeah, DON'T WORRY about HOW some MAD SCIENTIST CREATED and HATCHED this new flu -- let's just worry about BOOSTING DRUG COMPANY PROFITS and advance the neo-con agenda with mandatory vaccinations in the fall.

But almost immediately, the CDC learned that the flu's parents were some older swine viruses - one of them a combination of pig, bird, and human strains - that had mixed genes in a new way.

Yeah, IN A LAB!!!!!!

I'm sorry, readers; I'm no longer lapping up government bs.

Yesterday's report takes a closer look at all of the genetic material of the virus, and found the closest ancestor for all eight gene segments is of swine origin. That suggests the virus might have been infecting pigs for years, even if the infected pigs didn't appear sick.

Pffft

The new work doesn't shed any light on where the H1N1 virus made its jump from pigs to people.

Drip, drip, drip....

CHICAGO - A Chicago resident has died of swine flu, the first death in Illinois and the 12th nationally, from the illness, health authorities said yesterday....

Dr. Damon Arnold, director of the Illinois Department of Public Health, said in a statement that the victim in Chicago had other medical conditions, but authorities released no other information about the person....

Excuse me, readers. I'm not feeling so good.
