Swine flu information

[Katinka Hesselink]

Hi all,

I thought you might want to get the update on what one can do to avoid Swine Flu - or cure it if you do get it: http://www.squidoo.com/preventing-swine-flu.
It's a pretty comprehensive overview, by a doctor.

I think you've made your point.

Clearly both the swine flu and the toxic vaccine which is used to spread it are being used as biological weapons.

I am not an ES member, but HPB's instructions for the ES say be vegetarian.

I guess you missed the memo - the ES now is as much a Leadbeater as a Blavatsky thing, from what I've heard. But that would not change the advice on this sort of thing. Now that I think on it, I do remember conversations with ES members on this, and they did specify very specific rules on alcohol and things. I was already a vegetarian, so I didn't focus on that. I guess you're probably right.

Keep repeating: It's the flu. It's the flu. It's not the Black Death!

Oh, I think the panic is quite gone by now, isn't it? The Dutch media aren't spending much energy on this anymore at all - quite clear that modern medicine is able to cure this for most people that don't recover on their own.

[Roy Stewart]

It is 'modern medicine which' created it.

There's a rather disturbing update that the current Swine Flu isn't so innocuous after all. The current flavor shares quite a bit in common with its 1918 H1N1 cousin. It has the same nasty tendency to go deep inside the lung and destroy tissue, unlike normal flu strains which are mostly upper respiratory in nature.

For more detail, please see the following article from today's issue of Nature magazine (Please see the attached pdf file. You must have Adobe Acrobat Reader to view). The article is a bit involved but we have some medically skilled folk on the site (i.e. Susan Thomas RN) who can take questions.

It looks like the Swine flu isn't over quite yet.

[Charles Cosimano]

It's still the flu.
