Remember the avian bird flu scare back in 2005? The virus that terrified the world despite the fact that it had never infected a human and showed no scientific evidence that it would?
Here are some old articles to reflect on:
Bird Flu Hoax Makes Donald Rumsfeld $1 Million Richer
Bird flu fears have spurre the US purchase of billions of dollars of a drugs to treat this suspected pandemic. Dr. Mercola, a leader in the wellness movement in the U.S. has uncovered that Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld will directly benefit from this purchase.
(PRWEB) November 1, 2005 -- Last month President Bush stated that a minimum of 200,000 to a worst case scenario of 2 million deaths would occur in the US alone from the bird flu epidemic. This belief was used to justify the immediate purchase of 20 million doses of Tamiflu at $100 per dose which comes to a staggering $2 billion.
While administration officials believe drug therapy will help decrease the deaths in a bird flu pandemic, Dr. Mercola who is the founder of mercola.com the second most visited non-government health site after WebMD, states that, "Simple lifestyle changes can enhance your immune system to provide a virtual guarantee that you will not get the flu."
Unfortunately, lawmakers have already given Bush money to begin bird flu preparations. Last Thursday $8 billion in emergency funding was passed by the Senate which an amount considered close to what federal health officials believe they will need to apply a drug based solution to the projected bird flu pandemic.
Part of that money will be used to purchase a supply of the drug Tamiflu. Roche is the company that manufactures Tamiflu, but further investigations will show that the drug was actually developed by a company called Gilead which 10 years ago gave Roche the exclusive rights to market and sell Tamiflu.
The Rumsfeld Connection to Gilead
If you read Gilead’s website, you'll learn that Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld was named the chairman of Gilead in 1997.
According to CNN yesterday, he still holds a Gilead stake valued at between $5 million and $25 million and will handsomely profit from the scare tactics the government is currently using to justify the purchase of $2 billion of Tamiflu. Disclosure forms don't reveal the exact number of shares Rumsfeld owns, but in the past six months fears of a bird flu pandemic and the ensuing scramble for Tamiflu have sent Gilead's stock from $35 to $47. That's made the Pentagon chief, already one of the wealthiest members of the Bush cabinet, at least $1 million richer.
British Medical Journal Admits the Truth about Bird Flu
Last week's British Medical Journal has an editorial on the bird flu in which they state the following:
"The lack of sustained human-to-human transmission suggests that this AH5N1 avian virus does not currently have the capacity to cause a human pandemic"
Dr. Mercola, a New York Times best selling author and founder of the most visited wellness health site in the world http://www.mercola.com/index.htm, stated:
“While it is possible the virus could mutate with the influenza A virus and to acquire the means for rapid human to human transmission, the bird flu virus clearly does NOT have this ability now. All the preparation and fear being created in the media is about a theoretical speculation.”
Fortunately there are simple and highly effective lifestyle changes that can radically reduce your risk of becoming infected with the bird flu. To receive your free report please go to www.mercola.com/birdflu. - source
Influenza Viruses And Governmental Fear Mongering
Author Unknown - 2005-10-17
Influenza Viruses And Governmental Fear Mongering: The ‘Avian Flu’ Scare – A Repackaged & Updated ‘Swine Flu’! Today's Influenza Vaccines Are NOT Effective! Based on the current published studies on influenza effectiveness and the CDC’s actual reported "influenza" illness and mortality data during the period 1987 – 2000:
The current influenza vaccines are NOT effective for children 2 and under or adults over 65.
For all other groups, the current influenza vaccines are less than 50% effective in a good year and not effective in years where there is a "strain mismatch.'
For the past 20 years, the CDC's claimed 36,000 people die each year from "flu" or "flu-related pneumonia" is:
A KNOWINLGY FALSE CLAIM,
* When called on the truth of their statements concerning vaccines, CDC officials have admitted (in their "sworn: testimony before Washington State and Delaware legislators) that they knowingly lie about various aspects of vaccines because their "job’ is to promote vaccination at all costs, and
Count the people who die of pneumonia during the "flu" season" as "flu-related" deaths even though most are not confirmed to be infected with the "flu" virus.
The factual approximate "flu-related" pneumonia deaths per year for the CDC data available to the public in the period from 1997 to 2000 are as follows:
About 600 to 3,000 deaths each year, which translates into a death rate of about 1.7 to 8.3 persons per 1,000,000.
The range of influenza cases is from 34 to 130 million per year or, in percent of the population, 24.4% to 50.8%.
Between 13,000 and 44,000 people were hospitalized for "flu’ or "flu-related pneumonia" in the years data was reported by the CDC.
There is/was no correlation between the % of the population inoculated for "flu" and either the "attributed" deaths or the % of population getting the "flu"
When it comes to children, the available CDC data indicate that:
For the 1-to-4-year age group, "flu attributed" deaths were 6 to 16 each year, and
For the 5-to-14 year age group, "flu attributed" deaths were 1 to 14 each year.
Based on the preceding facts, the CDC’s "36,000 deaths per year" is a 12- to 60- fold INFLATION OF THEIR OWN DATA ON "FLU DEATHS, and AN OBVIOUS FABRICATION.
Thus:
TODAY’S "FLU" VACCINES ARE NOT EFFECTIVE IN PREVENTING YOU FROM GETTING THE "FLU"!

The ‘Avian Flu’ Scare – A Repackaged & Updated ‘Swine Flu’!
NEXT, THE BIRD FLU VACCINE BOONDOGGLE
Since: a) the current influenza vaccines are not effective, b) the exact "bird" flu influenza (H5N1) virus that will "cause" the alleged "bird-flu pandemic" is not known BECAUSE the H5N1 virus is rapidly mutating, c) the current experimental vaccines are already a mismatch for the current strain infecting chickens and people in Asia, and d) it takes months to convert a detected viral strain into a vaccine, but only weeks for a "flu" to spread to a significant portion of a population in America, WHY, except to fatten the "flu" vaccine makers pockets and fund their new facilities and research efforts,
WOULD ANY SANE GOVERNMENT of the people, by the people, and for the people FUND ANY SIMILAR "BIRD-FLU VACCINE" BOONDOGGLE? JUST LIKE THE LAST ‘ANIMAL’ INFLUENZA THREAT!!!
HISTORY 101: THE GREAT "SWINE FLU" FIASCO
They say that people who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it—has everyone forgotten the last flu SCARE: The ‘Swine Flu" – a pandemic that never was!
Like the small contained "Avian flu" outbreaks occurring in China in 2004 and 2005, a small, contained "swine flu" outbreak (which the Centers for Disease Control [and Prevention] {CDC} investigated and confirmed had been caused by a swine-type influenza A virus) occurred in the U.S. in February of 1976 at Fort Dix in New Jersey.
Like the current "sky is falling" reaction,
The Department of Health, Education and Welfare, as well as numerous medical experts, became concerned that a major flu epidemic was imminent for the coming fall.
FEAR of influenza deaths in numbers similar to the 1918 flu epidemic led to a recommendation that the federal government vaccinate all Americans.
When insurance companies refused to provide coverage to the vaccine manufacturers, the government agreed to accept liability for claims of adverse events.
This obstacle having been cleared, the National Influenza Immunization Program (NIIP) officially started in October of 1976.
The number of vaccinations given each week increased rapidly from less than one million in early October to more than four million in the later weeks of the month, and reached a peak of more than six million doses a week by the middle of November 1976.
The NIIP was unique in the annals of epidemiology: an organized surveillance effort was in place from the very beginning, and over forty million people were vaccinated during the short time the NIIP was in effect.
However, on December 16, 1976 the NIIP was suspended following reports from more than ten states of Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) in vaccinees.
By January of 1977, more than 500 cases of GBS had been reported, with 25 deaths.
Millions of dollars in lawsuits and many years later, the only "epidemic" was an epidemic of vaccines injuries as the "swine flu" pandemic never appeared.
Influenza Viruses And Governmental Fear Mongering:
The ‘Avian Flu’ Scare – A Repackaged & Updated ‘Swine Flu’!
Yet, today, our government is AGAIN:
Fear mongering about another influenza, the "avian"/"bird" flu, and
Pursuing the same stupid path to create a vaccine for a disease that may never exist and, like the swine-flu vaccine, is likely to damage thousands, even though
There are drugs that are effective treatments for treating those who contract any influenza virus and other drugs and treatments for the symptoms and post-infection diseases, mainly pneumonias, which tend to become active in those infected by an influenza virus.
WAKE UP AMERICA!
STOP THE LIES!
STOP ANOTHER UNSOUND VACCINE!
STOP THE ‘AVIAN FLU’ VACCINE!
DEMAND THIS OBVIOUSLY UNSOUND
"AVIAN FLU" VACCINE
PROGRAM BE STOPPED!
ALSO, DEMAND THAT:
1. THE CURRENT INEFECTIVE INFLUENZA VACCINATION PROGRAM SHOULD BE STOPPED IMMEDIATELY!
2. THE CURRENT ANTIVIRAL "FLU" DRUGS BE STOCKPILED AND USED TO TREAT THOSE WHO CONTRACT ANY INFLUENZA VIRUS!
3. AN IMMEDIATE PROGRAM FOR DEVELOPING BETTER ANTI-VIRAL DRUGS FOR THE INFLUENZA AND OTHER VIRUSES that are currently being addressed by vaccines with serious side-effect risks!
You want to know more about why Avian Flu is a hoax. Not just about Rumsfeld but also about all the science and all the politics that are clearly indicating this is a mastermind of the pharmaceutical companies in cahoots with the politicians. Go to my blog.
ReplyDeleteInfluenza Pandemics were never started from birds and never will. You can only catch influenza from birds if you eat, sleep, and generally live with birds that are infected. The real culprit is the swine. That’s the vector that caused all of the other pandemics. While we focus on birds we may be missing the boat and will find ourselves totally unprepared for the real pandemic that those pigs will transmit readily and that we will then propagate from one human to the next.
If you want more, check my web site ,and read my book on the topic “The Return of the Spanish Lady: The 1918 Influenza Virus is Back”.
Then you are welcome to contact me to tell me if you believe in what I am saying or not.
