CBS News recently reported that if you've been diagnosed "probable" or "presumed" 2009 H1N1 or Swine Flu in recent months, the odds are you didn't have it.
CBS News recently reported that if you've been diagnosed "probable" or "presumed" 2009 H1N1 or Swine Flu in recent months, you may be surprised to know that the odds are you didn't have the H1N1 flu. It's virtually impossible to get an accurate number of H1N1 victims because of lax reporting procedures and the secretive -- potentially fraudulent -- actions of the Centers for Disease Control (CDC).
Was the number of Swine Flu cases purposely inflated to create a pandemic? Much of this 'pandemic' hasn't made sense since it began. Loosely worded laws allow for convenient manipulation to achieve whatever end result is desired by the Federal Government. Given the reputations and past malfeasance of several of the large Pharmaceutical companies -- coupled with the egregious profits being made by said large Pharmaceuticals companies -- one has to wonder what is really going on.
CBS News conducted a three month investigation into the Swine Flu. State-by-state test results obtained by CBS reveal that many of the presumed 2009 H1N1 cases may in fact not be the flu at all.
The CDC and Britain's National Health Service say that once you have the H1N1 flu you're immune from future outbreaks of the same virus. If many people think they've had the Swine Flu but actually didn't, they might think they're safe from future outbreaks when they're not.
Vast Majority of alleged Swine Flu cases Tested Negative
Due to cost and other factors, including the quick creation of a Swine Flu pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO), the CDC advised states to stop testing for the Swine Flu in late July. It took CBS more than two months to get information from the CDC regarding their actions and state-by-state results prior to the changes in testing and tracking the Swine Flu.
All 50 states were asked by CBS to provide data for statistics on state lab-confirmed H1N1 cases prior to the changes in testing and tracking the outbreak by the CDC. As it turns out, the vast majority of alleged Swine Flu cases were negative for H1N1 as well as the seasonal flu. Patients who tested negative for H1N1 were not tested for any other illness, so it's not clear what they were infected with.
Sensationalistic headlines such as the one that appeared on Sept. 22 of this year claiming that the H1N1 Flu had infected over 250 Georgetown students are intentionally misleading. There was no confirmation that any one of those students actually had the flu. That number was 'estimated' by counting "students who went to the Student Health Center with flu symptoms, students who called the H1N1 hotline or the Health Center's doctor-on-call, and students who went to the hospital's emergency room." The actual number of Georgetown students who had the Swine Flu is most likely a lot fewer than 250.
Large Pharmaceutical companies that are making billions, at taxpayer expense, rushing untested Swine Flu vaccines to the public have spent $16.3 million between January and September of this year lobbying -- also known as bribing -- politicians in Washington. There are six registered health care lobbyists for every member of Congress, so it's no wonder the public is questioning the safety of the vaccines, the so-called Swine Flu pandemic and the actions of the U.S. Government.
America's Pharmaceutical Industrial Complex is Corrupt
Despite the fact that the Swine Flu vaccines have not been properly tested, the CDC is recommending that people get vaccinated and that the vaccines are safe. How safe are they? Despite claiming a national health emergency due to the Swine Flu, President Obama's daughters have not received the Swine Flu vaccine. Deaths from the Swine Flu vaccine are being reported in Europe and the German government will be receiving better vaccines than its citizens.
Swine Flu vaccines in the U.S. were swiftly -- using waivers -- approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) without proper testing being done to ensure that they are safe. On top of insufficient testing being done on the Swine Flu Vaccines, the U.S. Government immunized all the vaccine makers from any and all damages and deaths that may occur as a result of the vaccines.
An increasing number of doctors and health experts are reportedly speaking out about the dangers of vaccines, including the dangers of the H1N1 Swine Flu vaccines. America's Pharmaceutical Industrial Complex is corrupt and needs to be dealth with accordingly. Topping it off with the rampant fraud and corruption of politics as usual in Washington doesn't exactly inspire that warm and fuzzy feeling.
There are too many unanswered questions and too much secrecy surrounding the Swine Flu pandemic. The increasingly usual use of fear campaigns to scare the masses by the government -- a disturbing trend has become blatantly obvious -- raises a lot of red flags and suspicions. Before rushing out to get questionable Swine Flu vaccines, we need to know the truth about the Swine Flu pandemic and the vaccines so we can make informed decisions.
