My first reaction was to question wether they were actually given Tamiflu or are they unknowing test subjects for other meds.

They are easily contained and studied and if I remember right military members do not have to be told what they're given or why. Just a thought.

Holy crap, seriously already, I have to buy some stock in these Tamiflu manufacturers. These people are marketing geneouses, and with free government advertising no less! Instead of speculating on all these conspiracies we'd probably be better off getting IN on them.

So, fellow ATS friends... what do you think?

1) US military is truly taking H1N1 seriously?

2) US military is "appearing" to take H1N1 seriously?

3) US military is using this as an opportunity to conduct experiments on those on the vessel?

4) US military is advertising tamiflu?

5) Asia is prohibiting military/other cargo from their territory? If so, for what reason(s)?

Definetly not #1. If they had any kind of serious problem they would never publicize that info.

#2 is quite likely. But why put on the show? What do they have to gain? Any insight as to motivation would be appriciated.

#3 has my vote. But seems to me that they still wouldn't want this to be looked into very closely.

So why would they publicize it all, I wonder? Idea(s)?

Maybe a leak and they had to come to a quick cover that killed two birds. Make it look like they care on one hand and also test H1N1 spread and recovery at the same time.

Possibly a complete misdirection that has nothing to do with H1N1. They might have needed to cover the cancelation of some other mission dealing with that ship or some of it's crew.

Maybe they're allready testing for the next adaptation of H1N1 with a new anti-viral on a choice isolated group of subjects.

I want a quick answer with all of the uncertainty (sounds like I'm buying into "their" scheme, but I'm really sitting on the fence) but I guess only time will tell.

If I weren't new to this I'd star the above posting...but I gotta go research how to do that.

In the meantime, again,:
