 "More recently, Gilead developed and now owns the rights to Tamiflu, the untested avian influenza treatment, the development of which has secured millions of dollars in research support from the US Government.
Organon has ridden all criticism of its implant treatment in Britain. It has done this almost entirely by exercising the powerful links with its parent company and its friends in the corridors of power. Organon is served and protected by some of the most powerful business interests and directors in the developed world."- Martin J. Walker, HRT Licensed to Kill and Maim: The Unheard Voices of Women Damaged by Hormone Replacement Therapy (Get the book.) |
 "Inefficiency also plays a role. avian influenza H5 strains grow poorly in eggs. Each batch produces much less antigen than when making a vaccine for ordinary flu. Four eggs are needed to make one to two conventional flu shots. That's four billion fertile eggs to vaccinate less than one-quarter of the world's population. But would enough chickens free of bird flu lay enough eggs?
Because the risk of a pandemic is so imminent, the danger so great, and the profits for a new vaccine so high, scientists are feverishly working to develop egg-independent shots."- J. E. Williams, Beating the Flu: The Natural Prescription for Surviving Pandemic Influenza and Bird Flu (Get the book.) "Prelude to a Pandemic Why H5N1 avian influenza Is So Dangerous In 1997, a bird flu epidemic emerged in Southeast Asia, killing thousands of chickens and resulting in the slaughter of millions more ordered by governments and the World Health Organization in an attempt to stop it from spreading. The first human case was a three-year-old boy in Hong Kong. The illness was rapid and frightening. Doctors were powerless. In early May 1997, within days after infection, the child was dead. International health experts sprang into action. What they found was alarming." - J. E. Williams, Beating the Flu: The Natural Prescription for Surviving Pandemic Influenza and Bird Flu (Get the book.) "Only five types of influenza are known to infect humans: HI, H2, H3, and Nl or N2. The avian influenza viruses H4, H5, and H7 make birds sick but usually don't infect humans. That may be about to change, however. In addition to its technical designation, when the flu becomes a human infection, each of the different influenza A viruses is given a common name corresponding to the place of outbreak or origin: the Spanish flu of 1918 or the Hong Kong flu of 1968. The word "influenza" is derived from the Latin influentia, to influence." - J. E. Williams, Beating the Flu: The Natural Prescription for Surviving Pandemic Influenza and Bird Flu (Get the book.) "But clinical data are limited regarding utilization of these drugs with H5N1 influenza and only preliminary laboratory data indicate that, if the drugs are administered early, the avian influenza virus will succumb. Oseltamivir phospate (Tamiflu) and zanamivir (Relenza): These drugs may reduce the severity of symptoms and save lives, but only if taken in the first 48 hours after infection. There are not enough supplies to go around, however." - J. E. Williams, Beating the Flu: The Natural Prescription for Surviving Pandemic Influenza and Bird Flu (Get the book.) |
 "Avian Influenza, if it broke out, could have been as severe as the worldwide Spanish Influenza epidemic of 1918. They predicted hundreds of millions of deaths worldwide.
It did not happen.
Yet, they do it each and every year and it effectively sells a lot of vaccines of dubious efficacy, to an easily frightened public.
According to health consultant Jonathan Campbell, "The influenza, currently isolated in China, is a hemorrhagic illness."- Mark Sircus, Transdermal Magnesium Therapy (Get the book.) |
 "Indeed, the world is threatened by ongoing pandemics of HIV/AIDS, hepatitis B and C, tuberculosis, and, potentially, avian influenza that are being driven by the mineral impoverishment of global soils and the poorer quality food they are producing. Professor Foster has described, for example, the role played by selenium deficiency in accelerating the HIV/AIDS pandemic.11'12
Anti-aging
Niacin is a remarkable anti-aging nutrient, much simpler and safer than drugs prescribed to treat aging conditioned. A study by L.H."- Dr. Abram Hoffer, MD, FRCP (C) and Dr. Harold D. Foster, PhD, Feel Better, Live Longer with Vitamin B-3 (Get the book.) |
 "It's been shown to have an antibacterial effect (against Staphylococcus aureus) as well as an antifungal effect (against Candida albicans, or yeast), and even an antiviral effect (against avian influenza virus). It's really not so surprising that bee products like propolis would have such powerful antibiotic effects. Any beekeeper will tell you that bees are very susceptible to bacterial and viral infections."- Jonny Bowden, Ph.D., C.N.S., The 150 Healthiest Foods on Earth: The Surprising, Unbiased Truth About What You Should Eat and Why (Get the book.) |
 "If all that wasn't enough, in January 2004 the WHO warned of an "unprecedented" simultaneous appearance of avian influenza?bird flu—in chickens, geese, and ducks in ten Asian countries. By late March, Vietnam and Thailand had reported thirty-four human cases, twenty-three of which ended in death.2 The strain, A(H5N1), was of the same general type that killed a Hong Kong boy in 1997. Hong Kong slaughtered 1.5 million chickens and geese after that boy's death, only to see a similar pathogen raise its ugly head six years later. The 2004 outbreak killed nearly 70 percent of the people it infected."- Elinor Levy, Mark Fischetti, The New Killer Diseases: How the Alarming Evolution of Germs Threatens Us All (Get the book.) |
