The Mysteriously Shrinking Swine Flu Death Toll

I have been doing some reading, and something bizarre has happened in the MSM. A couple of days ago, Mexican Swine flu killed over a 150 people in Mexico alone. Now, that number is between SEVEN and TWENTY?

Check this out:

minnesotaindependent.com...

Now look at this article:

news.yahoo.com...

Then I find this Thread on ATS talking about another strain of flu altogether called H2N3.

From the US Dept. of Agriculture from 2007:

www.ars.usda.gov...

Is it possible that the death toll isn't 20, but actually much higher than 150, but most of the deaths were caused by H2N3 and not H1N1 allowing the CDC and WHO to down play the problem?

Edit to sex up the title.

I don't think we'll ever really know the Truth. But what I Found interesting is that, every year Regular Flu Kills 36,000 people.

So lets put this into Perspective. There's only about 200 deaths from Swine flu . And going down by the report.....

So what's the BIG DEAL?

The big deal is that if this thing is like the 1918 Spanish flu, we could expect that it is going to fade away as the summer months come. This could lead us to believe that it was all a big exageration, and have a cry wolf type of effect on the masses.

Then in the fall, when the regular flu season starts back up, this thing can come back like with a vengence.

Or what if this "flu" is simply the cover? Start a mild flu, hype it up so that no one forgets that it happened, then in a few months when people begin dying in large numbers blame it on the swine flu from a few months ago. By the time the regular flu season comes around, you sweep it all under the rug since everyone was out and mixing all summer.

When the WHO refers to confirmed, they do not count bodys, they count lab samples. Meaning there are a pile of bodies in Mexico, and a smaller subset of those were tested with samples arriving at some WHO location.


The body count is what ever sample size WHO decides to make it.

Almost no one dies of seasonal flu. About .6% die of pneumonia 4 to 6 weeks after the flu.

I has not been 4 to six weeks since the flu outbreak in Mexico.

Accoring to a NY Times article today test results show that of those suspected of having the flu, only 750 actually have it.

NY Times article, Outbreak in Mexico May Be Smaller Than Feared


Accoring to RSOE EDIS Mexico has 1757 suspected cases total, and 181 deaths.

So the projected infected number is 750.

Add to that 750 the 181 dead. That gives you 181 out of 931 dead, nearly a 20 % mortality rate.

If only two percent die, and the entire world is infected, that comes to 135 Million dead, 20% comes to 1215 Million dead.

This is potentially before the usual killer, pneumonia spreads through the weakened population.

These are not the usual folks in nursing homes dieing. These are the healthiest people, who's own immune systems overreact and kill them.

No where in history has a disease been so horrendously lethal.

I pray these numbers are wrong. This would certainly be Bio-Warfare if this played out with these numbers.

Anybody remember this?

Not only that but right during this uproar, and in the middle of people being so distracted, the EU is pushing a bill in on May 5th, to limit and split up the internet into parcels where you only can chose amongst certain services. Thats a pretty big destruction of our world, and freedom of information. Obviously, the news and real information is getting out to too many people.

Perhaps this was merely a distraction to destroy the internet, their biggest adversary, the tool of the people, something they never dreamed could actually undo them in the end.

This is what has been scaring me. Its like there trying to distract us from something else.

However, many of those people who don't have H1N1 DO have H2N3.

How about....they are getting people to be tested for more than one virus. One of them is natural. The other is not. They hype the one, and not the other.

When information about the wrong one gets out, they quickly replace it. Such as having the original stories showing the concerning flu being an odd human-swine-avian mix, and then replacing it with its a swine-swine recombinant.

Distract people from what you are looking for with something that is pretty close to exactly the same thing.

Yeah, I've been wondering how the WHO's math works. The more the truth comes out that fewer and fewer people are being infected as previously thought, and fewer and fewer people are dying as previously thought... the higher they crank up their cute little 6 level alert system. They've probably got Charles F. Richter's son working for them or something like that.

Clearly this is a test of some sort that they're experimenting with. They're testing to see how gullible the populace is and guess what? For the most part we're dumb enough for them to crank it up to the next level in a year or two. I can hear it now. I know what they're thinking! "Damn that internet, it's ruining our plan. The peasants have a better communication system than we do and they know what's going on. God damn it! We must destroy the internet before we can go to operation 'release the poison'."

That’s what I am starting to think. I think that H1N1 isn't the real killer, but its H2N3.

en.wikipedia.org...

When I first read that this Mexican virus was H1N1 I immediately looked it up and found it hard to believe that it was the culprit.

Now that there is information that H2N3 - a far more rare virus - is on the loose, it make you think that someone is hiding something.

More on H2N3:

I would be very interesting. Under any circumstances a double viral pandemic would be fascinating.

If both were natural it would be so illuminating.

If one weren't natural - WELL, that's just brillant as a way to study its spread. Regardless if it was released intentionally, or if it was an accidental release, what a great way to cover it. Brilliant. Nasty. Immoral. Unethical. But brillant.

Irony wasted on so many deaf ears here on ATS.

Members so desperately want to believe the apocalypse is upon us in the form of a bug.

I've stocked up on garlic just to be sure, but see my sig for my current view on this latest 'pandemic'

Bravo my man! Been waiting for people to put this together. You do realize how they test for flu right? They dont test for multiple strains if you run the high tech current test you will get a negative if someone died of the flu but a different strain. Bravo glad someone else is out there putting two and two together. Mexico City is one hell of a bioreactor

20,000 everytime I see you post that lie Im going to report you for trolling. Anyone who sees someone do this I urge you to click alert under their post and report them. They clearly only read the title of an article and posted it here or are lying on purpose.

I think you mean " sarcasm"

It's too early to tell, the outbreak started in late march/april and the incubation time is about 7 days. Its like rings on the water. I've also read some threads about the 1918 pandemic that killed millions but very few during otubreak late spring, the real effect came later during fall.

That is exactly what I'm worried about. That which ever virus (H1N1 or H2N3) comes back in the fall, it will be a real killer.

Right now TPTB want us to start forgeting about this thing and focus on more important things like American Idol or Brittney Spears. The don't want us to get prepared for a real pandemic by hording food and water over the summer.

They want us to be unprepared in the fall and winter when this thing rachets back up.
