Swine Flu What is Swine Influenza? Swine Influenza (swine flu) is a respiratory disease of pigs caused by type A influenza virus that regularly causes outbreaks of influenza in pigs. Swine flu viruses cause high levels of illness and low death rates in pigs. Swine influenza viruses may circulate among swine throughout the year, but most outbreaks occur during the late fall and winter months similar to outbreaks in humans. The classical swine flu virus (an influenza type A H1N1 virus) was first isolated from a pig in 1930.

Past few days I had sore muscles and a lack of energy, and I noticed every where around me people had been coughing constantly.

Not until I figured out I had a fever did I consider that I was actually sick.

For the past week I've been taking a quarter dose of Elderberry along with my 8 other herbs I normaly take.

After learning I had a fever I took a full dose of Colloidal Silver, a full dose of Elderberry tablets, and an extra Reishi/Astragalus pill. Hour and a half later I checked and my temp was down to 95f.

Been several hours and I feel great and my energy has returned.

For first line against sickness I nominate Elderberry and Colloidal Silver.
