News about bird flu is breaking fast and furious - and I can't keep up. Here are two important new pieces of information.



Bird flu is spreading rapidly -
Bird flu found in two more African countries - and scientists are scrambling to find ways to block the coming human pandemic.

Some researchers recommend agricultural measures for poultry similar to those implemented for pigs years ago, which are designed to minimize cross exposures and prevent microbes from mixing and creating hybrids. However, it may already be too late.

How bird flu can be stopped


swissinfo: Do viruses of this nature typically cross over to other species? Presumably the risk increases the more other species are exposed to the virus?

S.J.: The H5N1 influenza virus is an RNA virus, which tends to mutate rather dynamically and to adjust to new hosts. And the transmission of the virus has been observed for some time, most recently in cats in Europe.

The species barrier is being crossed, also to humans and to pigs. That is of particular concern because pigs and humans can be the so-called "mixing vessels". If they are both infected with a human and an avian influenza virus, there may be a crossover. In that case, the combination of the genetic material would then result in a virus which would be transmissible from human to human and have the same mortality rate of H5N1.

So the concern is indeed justified. We are currently looking at the role of cats in the crisis, particularly in Indonesia, and it is not excluded that cats may have a role that has been underestimated in the epidemiology of the disease.

According to the Secretary of Health and Human Services your options are:


Ready or Not, Bird Flu Is Coming to America
In a remarkable speech over the weekend, Secretary of Health and Human Services Michael Leavitt recommended that Americans start storing canned tuna and powdered milk under their beds as the prospect of a deadly bird flu outbreak approaches the United States.










Please visit the link provided for the complete story.


Looks like the government plan is to for you to go hide under your bed with your stash of food. Leavitt is a mormon. The LDS church has same plan in regards to stockpiling food and not relying on the government to save their buns. How the government handled Katrina was a good example, so don't plan on big brother to do much for you.

Hello, just about every hospital in our area has had it for years, at no cost I might add, again nothing new. The stupid article just makes it appear that way when it is not. Typical media ya know, take and inch then claim its five or ten.



Hello - it's Forbes that's promoting the luxury medical spa experience in America. The USD is in the toilet, its buying power is extremely limited and there's a Bird Flu epidemic in Europe. The rich want made-in-America options.


More and more, hospitals across America are offering swank, hotel-like accommodations to patients who have the money to spend for added comfort and convenience. ...People who stay at the Amenity Suites at Sky Ridge Medical Center in Lone Tree, Colo., enjoy larger rooms, dinners prepared by a personal chef, bathrooms with Jacuzzi tubs, separate showers and lavender toiletries. The out-of-pocket cost: $200 a night. ...In Louisville, Ky., Jewish Hospital's Trager Pavilion offers valet parking, gourmet meals and rooms with fax machines and Internet access to patients willing to spend an additional $200 to $250 a night.

Forbes: Healing In The Lap Of Luxury




Ordinary Americans are looking at Halliburton-KBR built portable ERs - and the "luxury medical spa" industry is positively booming in America.

Think investment.

Also, get rid of your real estate, especially rentals, and position to pick up property dirt cheap after half the population kicks. Kinda like what happened in New Orleans but bigger.

Yeah, it's about the money, but it's also about the population. If they kept us from getting this by animal quarantine, then they wouldn't have the opportunity to quarantine the humans. The (non-wealthy) humans wouldn't get sick and die by the handfuls and there would be no need to buy up the craploads of Tamiflu they have ready to sell and it would really just ruin their whole plan of control and decreasing the population to manageable (and wealthy) clusters.




Nahhh. Do ya think? A long term depopulation strategy?

Couldn't be.

And wasn't that a great test-case for how Bird Flu would work out? God must really be on their side...




Perfect first run. BTW - have you followed the status of New Orleans insurance claims? And the price of post-Katrina NO real estate? And the development plans and contracts? It's kind of interesting how it's all falling out...


As far as medical care and US needs - we have bird flu, Mad Cow (think dementia and Alzheimer epidemics), and chronic disease epidemics. Bird flu can be quick - or cause chronic disease. Most scientists also recognize that it has become
endemic.

So everything is endemic - it's everywhere, always present, and it's NOT GOING AWAY - Mad Cow, bird flu, chronic disease.

Better human quarantine and euthanasia than actual treatment or a clean-up, huh?


Of course, that's not the official public position. According to this administration, there is NO bird flu in America, NO Mad Cow, NO problems.


Mysterious Bird Deaths in Texas

The good news is it's not the bird flu, according to the Texas Department of Wildlife. But officials say as a precaution, the dead birds should not be handled.

loam's thread

***

FYI - officials say there is no Mad Cow in the USA either.

So don't worry. Be happy. Spend money. Get more credit. And eat chicken and beef every day!

The only people who want to hurt you in America are the terrorists.
