Now, in an effort to keep my family safe AND fiscally solvent, I have been forced to become the expert in all things. (I am still learning macroeconomics and fiscal policy.)

To paraphrase the President’s Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel “Never waste a good crisis”.

Now I don’t think they started this flu epidemic, nor do they control the WHO, but they do control the media that is trying so hard to over play this seemingly mild flu.

This is part and parcel of politics as usual, you know… the type that was supposed to go away with the coronation of That One. These bozos in office use a trumped up crisis for two primary reasons:

1) They get to act as if they’re actually doing something to justify their phony baloney jobs and

2) They can do a lot of nefarious things such as rifle our pockets yet again while our attention is diverted elsewhere.

“This unprecedented H1N1-H5N1 flu outbreak implicates the Ango-American Vaccine Pipeline, says world leading consumer health protector, Dr. Leonard Horowitz”

Consider the skyrocketing stock values of Novavax, Inc., precipitated by dozens of alleged flu deaths in Mexico. Then investigate the leading Anglo-American network of genetic engineers manipulating, mutating, and distributing these viruses. The evidence compels you, for the benefit of public health and safety to seriously consider, even decree, a conspiracy to commit genocide, according to this Harvard trained expert in emerging diseases.

Here, Dr. Horowitz urges an investigation of Dr. James S. Robertson, Englands leading bioengineer of flu viruses for the vaccine industry, and avid promoter of U.S. Government funding for lucrative biodefense contracts, along with collaborators at the US Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC). These suspects helped Novavax, Inc., in Bethesda, Maryland, produce genetically-modified recombinants of the avian, swine, and Spanish flu viruses, H5N1 and H1N1, nearly identical to the unprecedented Mexican virus that is allegedly spreading to the United States at the time of this posting. The outbreak was precisely timed to promote the companys new research and huge vaccine stockpiling contracts.

Scientists at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) are implicated through collaborations and publications involving private contracts with Novavax, a company that obtains its biosimulars through CDC Influenza Branch director, Ruben O. Donis, and Dr. Rick Bright, previously working with Donis at the CDC, now Novavaxs Vice President of Global Influenza Programs.

Descriptions of this virus is pathognomonic, or diagnostic, of a virus that came from Robertsons circle of friends, Dr. Horowitz charges. No other group in the world takes H5N1 Asian flu infected chickens, brings them to Europe, extracts their DNA, combines their proteins with H1N1 viruses from the 1918 Spanish flu isolate, additionally mixes in swine flu genes from pigs, then reverse engineers them to infect humans. The end product could only have ended up in Mexico via the United States from Britain in care of the CDC. The CDC had to have sent them to Novavax, where Rick Brights team is now implicated in a conspiracy to commit genocide—the mass killing of people for profit.

Farmhand Infects Herd

A pig herd in central Alberta has been infected with the swine flu virus in what could potentially be the first human-to-animal virus transmission case, provincial officials confirmed yesterday afternoon.

More Albertans have also been affected by the bug, with Edmonton seeing its first four cases of the swine flu.

A man, young girl, and two women all have minor forms of the flu and are said to be recovering, and all are believed to be isolated cases, said the province’s top doctor, Andre Corriveau.

The 2,200 animals were exposed to the virus by a farm worker exhibiting flu-like symptoms after returning from Mexico.

The office of the chief provincial veterinarian was notified Tuesday that some of the farm’s pigs showed flu-like symptoms after the worker, who came home on April 12, exposed the pigs to the virus when he returned to work two days later.

The farm was immediately placed under quarantine and samples were taken and sent to the National Centre for Foreign Diseases in Winnipeg to be analyzed. A bulletin was also sent out to the province’s pork industry workers.

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency is now leading the investigation with the help of Alberta Agriculture and Rural Development.

The pigs, the farm worker, and the family living on and running the farm have since recovered or are recovering, said agriculture Minister George Groeneveld. There have been no other reports of swine flu viruses in pigs and the flu has been confined to this particular operation, he added.

Groeneveld emphasized that there is no evidence that the flu virus can be contracted by eating pork or pork products, adding: “Pork is safe to eat. There is no risk to our food supply.”

However, he said these findings could have an impact on Alberta’s pork producers and the export market.

“Border closures are unwarranted but there have been some closures because we have the (swine flu) in Canada,” Groeneveld said. “We’ll see what transpires. I think we’ll have to talk to our American counterparts and they have no problems, at this point, with the export of our pork.”

EVERYDAY STRAIN

Dr. Gerald Hauer, chief provincial veterinarian, said that swine flu is known to occur in pigs in the province, particularly a common everyday strain of the swine flu virus.

But this is the first time they were made aware of a swine flu strain that could be transferred from humans to animals.

Biosecurity measures such as limiting visitors to pig farm operations and ensuring workers shower before and after entering pig farms, are in place to prevent other similar incidents, Hauer said.

He noted that the flu virus is a “notifiable” disease, meaning within 24 hours of noticing or suspecting signs of the swine flu, incidents must be reported to the chief veterinarian’s office.

Corriveau, Alberta’s chief medical officer of health, said from a human perspective, a possible human-to-animal transmission of the virus gives no reason to panic. He added that people should continue to take precautionary measures to prevent spreading disease.

TWO NEW CASES

Alberta Health and Wellness also confirmed that elsewhere in Alberta, two new cases have been recorded in northern Alberta and one in Calgary, bringing the provincial total to 15.

None of the patients have required hospitalization.

They totally lost me too with the color-coded terror threat alert. Green-Blue-Yellow-Orange-Red. We’re still using the system. The threat-level color of the day for airline travel is Orange, with regard to all foreign and domestic air travel. For those of us who prefer words, that means the risk of air terrorism is HIGH. I don’t know why there are 5 colors. Green and Blue will likely never occur again. Yellow, or ELEVATED, is pretty much the baseline.

So, maybe or maybe not. I’m not willing to go out on a limb for them.

(Actually, they lost me when they elevated it to a colored alert. I don’t believe anything with colored alerts anymore.)

I heard there was a protester with a bullhorn saying “This is so great that you are here… Create fear and terror.”

Of course, there wasn’t much coverage of that part of their date

Why is this important to us? Not because you can get the flu from pork chops, bacon, or ham. You can’t. It’s important because pigs got the sh!tty end of the genetic stick which it comes to Influenza A. Pigs can get human and birds strains much easier than vice versa. The ability for a reassortment of the virus has just increased. Notice I didn’t say likelihood or probability. I just said ability. None of us can predict the future.

The US Department of Agriculture needs to change it’s name. It doesn’t give a flying fig leaf about animal health or the safety of our food supply. Just call it what it is….one giant lobby for agri-business.

What we’ve got here is the media exploiting a story that has grabbed the public’s attention. They don’t make and inflate “news” for Barack Obama’s benefit. They do it for ratings, market shares, and profit margins. Providing us with useful information–assuming that even happens–happens incidentally. The actual importance of the topic is entirely secondary to the effectiveness with which it captures imagination of the masses.

What significant events were entirely eclipsed as the media obsessively fixated on O.J. Simpson, Laci Peterson, Natalee Holloway, etc?
