Stupid thread premise is stupid.
fela, I'd suggest to come and visit the flu planning team at my PCT and find out just how 'scaremongery' it is for those working in the NHS who will actually be dealing with the problem en masse, before you open your mouth and start spouting bollocks like this.
Meanwhile back on track after that brief excursion...
Some sobering reading in the following link which outlines the background leading up to this 'pandemic' we've been told is going to kill so many of us. For those who are planning on having one of those vaccinations when they become available, take careful note while reading this article.

"The WHO is planning for the production of 4.9 billion dose, enough to inoculate a large share of the World's population. Big Pharma including Baxter, GlaxoSmithKline, Novartis, Sanofi-Aventis and AstraZeneca have signed procurement contracts with some 50 governments. (Reuters, July 16, 2009). For these companies, compulsory vaccination is a highly lucrative undertaking:
"The WHO has refused to release the Minutes of a key meeting of an advisory vaccine group "packed with executives from Baxter, Novartis and Sanofi" that recommended compulsory vaccinations in the USA, Europe and other countries against the artificial H1N1 "swine flu" virus this autumn.
In an email this morning, a WHO spokesperson claimed there are no Minutes of the meeting that took place on July 7th in which guidelines on the need for worldwide vaccinations that WH0 adopted this Monday were formulated and in which Baxter and other Pharma executives participated.
Under the International Health Regulations, WHO guidelines have a binding character on all of WHO's 194 signatory countries in the event of a pandemic emergency of the kind anticipated this autumn when the second more lethal wave of the H1N1 virus "which is bioengineered to resemble the Spanish flu virus" emerges.
In short: WHO has the authority to force everyone in those 194 countries to take a vaccine this fall at gunpoint, impose quarantines and restrict travel." (Jane Burgermeister, WHO moves forward in secrecy to accomplish forced vaccination and population agenda, Global Research, July 2009)."

Do you agree with your quoted sources that the H1N1 has been bioengineered and the World Health Organization plans to vaccinate everybody in the world at gunpoint, as part of a sinister plan to reduce the world's population?
The best protection against the H1N1 virus that has now been released and that will inevtiably become more lethal as it mutates in autumn is colloidal silver and also vitamins to strengthen the immune system, face masks and other such measures.
I filed charges with the FBI against WHO and the UN among other defendants in June. I included President Obama among the defendants because I believe the time has come to identify and isolate the core members of this international corporate criminal group which has annexed high government office in the USA, and put them in prison once and for all

You do know that 6,000-12,000 die from 'flu each winter in the UK in a non swine 'flu year? The number depends on the severity of the winter.Thousands will die this year from swine flu in britain? Well, let's come back in five months and see how your prediction stands up. I doubt somehow this will come to bear. Maybe a hundred or two.
Worst public health issue for decades? Again, seems like alarmist nonsense to me. Almost as deadly as all that terrorism that was coming to kill all those american and british and australian lives. That's why i compared the two. It's all bullshit. People have always died of flu. Nothing new here except the media hype that seems to have snared so many, including yourself.
But you then seem to recognise the role that corporate interests play in all of this. It's all interconnected. Swine flu is simply another one of those tools they use to keep us all in a cloud of fear. So much easier to manipulate.
You do know that 6,000-12,000 die from 'flu each winter in the UK in a non swine 'flu year? The number depends on the severity of the winter.
The modelling suggests this particularly strong strain will between double and quadrouple the usual numbers, again depending on the severity of the winter.
This really isn't about a continuuim of TERRAH!, it's an immediate and extemely rare public health issue for every country.
By all means join up the dots, but you've firstly got to identify the right dots. Look at ID cards and corporate fraud for a start, not swine 'flu.
Depends what you mean by "effectively" really, I suppose. The number of hits on govt flu sites, the number of masks I saw on a trip to the British Museum and the number of schools shut would suggest that it has been very effective for some. Thousands die from flu EVERY year though.Fear isn't being 'racheted' up effectively at all.
I didn't know. It's not a lot really is it? But i fail to see how this impacts on the argument that swine flu is part of the greater effort to engineer a world in a certain way.
Why is this flu in the summer? And what do you mean by 'modelling'? And who issued those figures and how believable are they? And in any case, if those figures prove to be the case, then they ought to retroactively declare swine flu NOT a pandemic.
Thousands die from flu EVERY year though.
fela fan - I'm not going to do you research for you. If you want to be better informed about issues, rather than jump from one outlandish judgement to another, I'd encourage you to do more reading and less posting - that way you're ideas will gain depth, nuance and possibly even credence.
fela - I don't need to read that link, I read the whole Jane Burgermeister story about 3 months ago, and it was as much a pile of bollocks then as it is now.
You have no idea what quantity of reading i do.
You really have no idea do you? The flu isn't 'in the summer' - it was first identified in April this year. Epidemiologists - those who map the path of infectious diseases through a population - are the ones who do the modelling. They use a wide variety of statistical models, based on estimate on infection rate, geographical patterns of infection etc etc, and from this they are able to produce data that shows how the virus will progress through a population - so far the UK predictions have been pretty much on the money both in terms of where the virus would be concentrated, and how many people will have it. 'Pandemic' is a very specific term that epidemiologists use to describe a specific level of viral presence in a given population, and H1N1 passed that point a couple of months ago.
Like I said, you have no idea what you're talking about.
We have some idea of its quality, however.
that this thread is not so much here to say it's a pandemic or not,
And in any case, if those figures prove to be the case, then they ought to retroactively declare swine flu NOT a pandemic.
Yes, I've read the article now, and if anything it's an even bigger pile of shite than Burgermeister. Most if it is speculative, it quotes very selectively from it's source material, and makes plenty of unsubstantiated claims,
How many of you are there?
You have zero idea, to claim otherwise reflects a closed mind. You're yet another person in a long line of them on urban who cannot debate the topic but instead needs to focus on rubbishing people. Pathetic really.
What? The vaccines are going through human trials at the moment, prior to their predicted release to the public in mid-September. Until those have concluded no-one is in a position to make any comments about their safety of efficacy. And neither can the author of that article.
I was responding directly to this comment you made:
'Pandemic' has a specific definition in epidemiology. The criterea for 'pandemic' had been reached. Therefore they used the word.
But hey, don't let that put you off your rantings about how this was an engineered flu outbreak to usher in the NWO...
Sometimes I can be bothered to debate, but when it's the same old nonsense over and over, it's a bit tiresome, and others are doing that job perfectly well on this thread anyway.
Are you a 9/11 conspiracy believer too, by the way? If you are, then that's kind of enough to tell me that you're not worth the effort. If you aren't, then you should be aware of the fact that that website you linked to is, along with its editor who wrote that article.
I'm not a believer of anything teuchter. That is a precursor to shutting one's mind down.
As for conspiracies, they've been around forever and a day. People in power are always conspiring. Do you disagree?
conspire
Verb
[-spiring, -spired]
1. to plan a crime together in secret
2. to act together as if by design: the weather and the recession conspired to hit wine production and sales [Latin conspirare to plot together]
