News is just “ news ” Not the absolute truth. Let ’ s put Swine Flu (H1N1) into perspective

What are the symptoms of Influenza A (H1N1)? Fever Headache Cough Sore throat Runny & stuffy nose Extreme fatigue Muscle aches Nausea, vomiting and diarrhea (these symptoms may also occur, but are more common in children)

So Just about anyone could have swine flu.

Deaths? 816 deaths worldwide in 160 countries Europe – 16,556 cases with just 34 deaths ‘Given that countries are now no longer required to test and report individual cases, the number of cases reported actually understates the real number of cases.’

The ODDS of: # death by assault in your lifetime : 331/1 # death by assault in your lifetime : 331/1 # death by falling : 250/1 # death by falling : 250/1 # death by firearm : 325/1 # death by firearm : 325/1 # death by poison : 1,400/1 # death by poison : 1,400/1 # death in a car crash : 5,000/1 # death in a car crash : 5,000/1 # death by choking on food or something else : 5,000/1 # death by choking on food or something else : 5,000/1 # death by drowning : 9,000/1 # death by drowning : 9,000/1 # death by murder : 20,000/1 # death by murder : 20,000/1 # death by lightning : 71,000/1 # death by lightning : 71,000/1 # death by dog attack : 137,000/1 # death by dog attack : 137,000/1 # death in the bathtub : 807,000/1 # death in the bathtub : 807,000/1 # death by a flood : 713,000/1 # death by a flood : 713,000/1 # death by falling out of bed : 2,000,000/1 # death by falling out of bed : 2,000,000/1 # being killed in a terrorist WMD attack : 6,000,000/1 # being killed in a terrorist WMD attack : 6,000,000/1

Only 1154 people died of Swine flu (worldwide!) The Odds? 8,000,000/1

Yup, that’s right You are at a greater risk from drowning in a bathtub

Some Stats The regular run-of-the-mill strains of influenza kill more than 35,000 Americans each year! Bird flu – WHO reports (1 June 2009) 436 cases and 262 deaths (was supposed to wipe us out!) But, more than 25 million people have died from AIDS since 1981 (up to July 2007) 1.6 million died from TB in 2005 alone! SARS (Severe Adult Respiratory Distress Syndrome) – 167 deaths up to 2003 (was also supposed to kill millions!)

“ Cui bono? ” Who else benefits? Drug companies – more medications sold Drug companies – more medications sold Doctors – patients with mild cold will not ‘ take any chances ’ Doctors – patients with mild cold will not ‘ take any chances ’ Medical institutions Medical institutions Media – more interest = more sales Media – more interest = more sales Some politicians Some politicians

Only Treatment Tamiflu Also only treatment for Bird flu

Chairman of Gilead Since 1997 – 2001 Held major stocks

Who is it?

Bush authorised $ 1.7 Billion to fight bird flu – 14 % went to Gilead Inc. Bush authorised $ 1.7 Billion to fight bird flu – 14 % went to Gilead Inc.

Every month people die from AIDS in South Africa Every month people die from AIDS in South Africa Every day nearly 1,600 people die of AIDS Every day nearly 1,600 people die of AIDS Every year 18,000 people die on our roads Every year 18,000 people die on our roads 25,000 people are murdered 25,000 people are murdered Every year 80,000 die of TB. Every year 80,000 die of TB. So Let ’ s Understand …

But we are forced to focus on … Influenza A (H1N1) Or Swine Flu

Because the Powers Don ’ t make money from treating TB, AIDS, measles, malnutrition, etc.

Some Scientists even say swine flu is a lab created virus Because it is an unnatural virus, containing, human flu, bird flu & swine flu together, which doesn ’ t ever occur in nature! Just another scam to frighten people and make a lot of money. These cooperate giants always practice tricks.

But don ’ t fear the Swine Flu Fear the Vaccinations! Dr. Marc Girard, a specialist in side effects of drugs, a medical expert commissioned by French courts, said on French TV that the "swine flu" VACCINE could cause 60,000 deaths in France, especially among young people, children and pregnant women. He also said that the people promoting the "swine flu" vaccine are doing so because they have links with pharmaceutical companies. ( See Translation from French: "A vaccine is being developed in conditions of amateurism such as I have never seen. Lets take the pessimistic hypothesis: one death among every 1000 patients. There are plans to vaccinate 60 million people, and so you already have 60,000 deaths, and this time, young people, children, pregnant women. "

So what can we do? Natural non-pharma doctors advise us to: Keep healthy by keeping up your immune system, by … Keep healthy by keeping up your immune system, by … Getting enough exercise, Getting enough exercise, Eating right! Eat your fruits & vegetables! Eating right! Eat your fruits & vegetables! Avoid too much sugar & artificial sweeteners, MSG, diet drinks, junk food, GM food, chemicals, pesticides, etc. Avoid too much sugar & artificial sweeteners, MSG, diet drinks, junk food, GM food, chemicals, pesticides, etc. Get enough sunshine (vitamin D resists flu!)
