Well the good ole doctor seems to be overjoyed with telling this great news. Maybe there's some hot chick filming these videos. Hell maybe the entire film crew are hot chicks. We'll never know.

Are we, "the public", the only ones being threatened by this thing? Am I the only one that thinks it strange coincidence that one of the first people to die of this thing shook Obama's hand less than 48 hours before meeting his demise?

Sounds to me that it's more than just the American people who are being threatned. And that those doing the threatening don't care who knows it.

I did a quick google search and the general accepted amount of people that die from 'regular' flu, each year, is around 250,000 world wide. That's about 685 people each day, across the world.

So why is this new strain getting so much air time and throwing WHO, etc, into doing live news broadcasts? I don't get it. Only 149 people dead in Mexico over a few days - if we say the first died last Friday then that's 5 days which is only equal to around 30 a day.

Normal flu kills 685 per day. This flu kills 30 per day. Hmmmm? The numbers just don't add up as to why this new strain is making all these headlines.

It does give the perfect excuse as to why those green shoots of a recovery might now vanish. They can now tell us how the bailouts were working but unfortunately this flu threw a huge spanner in the works. Not their fault that they wasted tax payer money because they didn't see this flu coming. Am I close?

The man always speaks the truth, it is amazing and sometimes I wonder, why the PTB have not tried to keep him quiet in one way or another.

I am so sick of hearing that there are no deaths yet in the US, it's just starting here and only the young have been infected, by that I mean those under the age of 25.

The problem with this type of flu is that it doesn't kill children or the elderly, it kills the healthy young adults with healthy immune systems. The flu is not what kills adults, it's the healthy bodies response to the flu that kills a person. A healthy immune system will overproduce white blood cells to kill the infection, thus filling the lungs with fluid, thus drowning the healthy person in their own secretions.

The CDC and WHO know exactly what is going on, this is a pandemic and it's just the beginning. It may take 6 month to a year before this hits it's peak, by then, there may well be millions dead.

Go read about the swine flu of 1918, they though everything was fine, they all went out to celebrate the end of the war, the next day 5,000 were infected. It didn't stop until around 1921 around the world, no air travel back then and ships would take 3 months to reach another country, not today.

I find it funny though on a normal year when it's killing the young and elderly they don't make a big stink about it and now that this particular strain causes people with strong immune systems to kill themselves from the inside it makes the news.

So all I can take away from all the news is that children, elderly, hiv and hep c folks will be fine because their immune system is already compromised in such a way to not respond drastically to this.

Last night I was wondering "OK why are they babbling on about this, when there are other things much more dangerous killing more people yearly than this has or chances are even will. No one died from it in 76 what makes them think they will this time around?"

Then it occurred to me, it's because every one of these news agencies employee people in that age group. So of course they will spam it all over the news because they are terrified it might strike them and in doing so makes it appear more volatile than it really is at the moment forcing the political hand of the government to at least look likes it's trying to do something for it's people even though in all reality other than a vaccine (that could potentially kill you back in 76) what can they do?

Restrict travel sure but can you tell me how will they stop illegal immigrants coming to this country? We can't even do that now. It is in Mexico and will be here one way or the other.

Point being no need to panic the whole population about a flu bug when there are much more pressing matters this day in age that have a much higher mortality rate. They had a panic in my state saying there were several cases here oh gee as of right now false alarm, it was a normal flu bug not the swine.

The man is brilliant. Thank you for finding and sharing this piece.

I am encouraged by Dr. Paul's speaking out more and more. He's right. The flu is not what we should fear but the "vaccine."

Look folks the bailouts would have worked, I swear they were working...of all the rotten luck, all these business having to close to keep the disease from spreading...

I know this is off topic, but I think it's important to address in conjunction with everything that is going on. The "economic recovery" was an illusion. After the initial blow(s), they "printed up" (created) trillions of dollars and tucked them in financial institutions where they sit, not affecting things...yet.

But I can assure you that increasing the money supply so staggeringly hugely cannot do anything but hyperinflate the currency - WHEN it is flushed into the economy wholesale. And They plan on that. That is one way to take away our wealth (what little is left of it). And then control us.

And control is what they're after, both in hyping Tamiflu and in hyperinflating our currency.

The doctor sums most of it up although he never quite gave an answer why he thinks HLS and the media are hyping it up..

Interesting indeed..

I think he did but not in a blatant way. He said, "Those who love big government take advantage of things like this." That pretty much summed it up. I think he was saying that the reason they are hyping this up is to use it against us should they decide this is the perfect opportunity to use the extraordinary powers Bush put into place. Remember, one of his executive orders gave the president to declare martial law in America should he determine we are in a state of emergency.

I don't know if they'll really do it. I think they are just testing the waters right now. Maybe it's a test run.

One thing is for certain, I am in no way freaked out by swine flu. The only thing that has me worried is why they are hyping it up so much. I'm not worried about getting sick; I'm worried about losing more freedoms.

Ron Paul is the ONLY (and I mean only) reason I don't want term limits for representatives.

"Don't blame me, I voted for Ron Paul."
