US Swine Flu 'National Emergency'

CSM:

“When the President formally declares a national emergency, he may seize property, organize and control the means of production, seize commodities, assign military forces abroad, institute martial law, seize and control all transportation and communication, regulate the operation of private enterprise, restrict travel and, in a variety of ways, control the lives of United States citizens,” writes Harold Relyea, a specialist in national government with the Congressional Research Service, an arm of the Library of Congress.

I've been searching around for what powers are granted under a national emergency. Thanks for posting that.

sorry if this has already been posted,

Two Purdue University math researchers have predicted the novel H1N1 flu will peak so early that planned vaccinations will not have a large effect on the number of people infected.

Purdue researchers: H1N1 about to peak

www.wlfi.com...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. (WLFI) - Two Purdue University math researchers have predicted the novel H1N1 flu will peak so early that planned vaccinations will not have a large effect on the number of people infected.

Sherry Towers, from Purdue's statistics department, and Zhilan Feng, from Purdue's math department, used a mathematical model to predict the spread of the disease. They used data collected by the Centers for Disease Control in May, June, July and August.

The result? The model predicted that H1N1 infections will reach their peak in either the week before or the week after Halloween.

The researchers said this early peak for the disease mean that the vaccination campaign will only reduce infections by, at most, 6%. However, as the model also predicted that 63% of the US population will have been infected by the end of the year, a 6% reduction could still mean that the vaccinations could save thousands of lives.

Around Halloween sounds about right to me considering the situation.

Bloomberg is saying the statement was 'emailed'...

Oct. 24 (Bloomberg) -- President Barack Obama declared swine flu a national emergency, the White House announced in an e-mailed statement today. The proclamation, signed last night, is designed to help U.S. medical treatment facilities deal with a surge in H1N1 influenza patients by waiving government rules on a case-by-case basis, the announcement said. For example, hospitals might be permitted to set up separate emergency facilities to deal with an influx of flu patients.

How pathetic, something this big and he sends an email?

'Did you get that memo?' lol...

Sounds like Obama and his crony's are trying to keep this as low-key as possible.

I just don't know why some people don't see how easy it is for a group of extremely rich corrupt individuals to control everything quite easily!
There are big big changes on the way. Everything is not as it seems. Wake [snip] up!

espicaly if it is mutating, if they have hint that a much worse version is emerging and they have no meds to do anything to stop it, the only recourse would be to stop / slow the spread , and the only way to do that is to limt travel.

of course its mutating
at the high school two weeks ago after our swine outbreak
we were all given 'cleansers'
but no one reads labels
they all have benzene derived compounds and other 'highly toxic chemicals' in them...
and a prof. at UWa did a study and showed that most of our 'household cleansers' have small levels of highly toxic chemicals in them

genetic engineering 101 put a virus into highly toxic chemicals and it will mutate rapidly

now if those cleansers were bacteria or plants we would call this 'chemical warfare'

can you post the link? Trying to forward this video to my friends...

I watched it and it SERIOUS business!!!

With martial law (national emergency) they can knock on your door

"Excuse me, please show your documentation of your H1N1 vaccine."
" Uhh...we decided against it"
" Follow us out in to this white van" ( Health Dept van)
" Where am I going?"
"To the local health dept...If you decide again to not to be vaccinated, you'll be assigend to one of the local quarantine sites"

Not to mention that "your children belong to the state"...they can forcefully vaccinate our kids, but they will quarratine the adults.

Hopefully just a coincidence, but there happens to be an 'FIA Industry-Wide Disaster Recovery test scheduled for Saturday, October 24, 2009':

Full Announcement

In our continuing effort to provide seamless trade processing capability to our clearing participants in the event of a disaster, The Clearing Corporation (CCorp) is pleased to announce its participation in the FIA Industry-Wide Disaster Recovery test scheduled for Saturday, October 24, 2009...

...Please be aware: CCorp will be operating from its DR location; therefore all data entered into the DR clearing system will be deleted. Firms that receive data during the test to their production system should take precautions not to process disaster recovery transactions with production data.

This was posted by Vitchillo here within the last hour.

Hopefully it doesn't mean what CT-ists might suspect it could mean, but it might be worth posting now in case the whole shabang really does go down in the next few days.

The link is on the video. A panel should come up and refer you to the main YouTube link

Just don't get caught up in this weapon of mass distraction and forget about net neutrality, which is also in full force this weekend.

They come like a thief in the night...

In order to explain this EMERGENCY all you need to know is:

Barack Obama sees worst poll rating drop in 50 years

Barack is in a panic because of his pole numbers and he needs something to make him look PRESIDENTIAL.

If you're smart. You will come up here to Canada for a while eh.

We wont make you take any shots, we have places in every province where you can smoke your wacky legally, lots of bacon, great beer, great wild life, and lots of gorgeous women.

But really, id leave the US for a bit.

Holy cow! That video you posted on p.6 is INCREDIBLE.

Off the scale. How can a democratic country come to this - on the back of an overblown FLU virus?!

On a nother thought, whats the odds that this move has something to do with things that we have no knowledge of right now?
Something about to happen, that tptb know about but msm and others realy have no clue, solar burst, quake (although dont know how one could know abou that) , incoming metior, other virus, terrorist threat that is real. The swine flu would be a good guise to get things in place before it happend without alerting and panicing the masses.

I know all of that. What I meant by let us know what is happening, if there is any state troops out on the streets, any centres being set up, new channels in the US running Government Propoganda on being a good us citizen and going for your vaccination jabs etc.

I apologise if I did not come across clear enough

.

We are OK. Thanks for asking.
The swine flu scare isn't working for Obama.
People die from the regular flu every year.


I'm not getting any flu shots at all.
My parents gave me great DNA. I'll tough it out.

What all is involved with that? I would love to come up for awhile!

The pharmaceutical company Baxter created the virus and The Department of Homeland Security were the ones who shipped it out and started infecting people with it;

So Obama declaring a state of emergency means that they are going to release more of the virus; possibly maybe even a new virus;
and there will possibly be forced vaccinations, road blocks, fema camps, death trains, martial law....

we will probably be seeing NATO military in the country since the UN made obama head of UN security forces

This is obviously a power grab;

You guys need to remember their formula;
If there is a power grab right after a crisis then it was planned false flag attack
like on 9/11

Crises + Power Grab = False Flag Attack + Conspiracy

en.wikipedia.org...

A state of emergency is a governmental declaration that may suspend certain normal functions of government, alert citizens to alter their normal behaviors, or order government agencies to implement emergency preparedness plans. It can also be used as a rationale for suspending civil liberties. Such declarations usually come during a time of natural disaster, during periods of civil disorder, or following a declaration of war (in democratic countries, many call this martial law, most with non-critical intent). Justitium is its equivalent in Roman law.

In some countries, the state of emergency and its effects on civil liberties and governmental procedure are regulated by the constitution, or a law that limits the powers that may be invoked or rights that may be suspended during an emergency. In many countries, it is illegal to modify the emergency law or constitution during the emergency.


Use and viewpoints

Though fairly uncommon in democracies, dictatorial regimes often declare a state of emergency that is prolonged indefinitely for the life of the regime[citation needed]. In some situations, martial law is also declared, allowing the military greater authority to act.

For state parties that are signatories to the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR), Article 4 permits states to derogate from certain rights guaranteed by the ICCPR in "time of public emergency". Any measures derogating from obligations under the convention, however, must only be to the extent required by the exigencies of the situation, and must be announced by the state party to the Secretary-General of the United Nations.

Some political theorists, such as Carl Schmitt, have argued that the power to decide the initiation of the state of emergency defines sovereignty itself. In State of Exception (2005), Giorgio Agamben criticized this idea, arguing that the mechanism of the state of emergency deprives certain people of their civil rights, producing his interpretation of homo sacer.[1]

New from Reuters:

On Friday the U.S. Food and Drug Administration issued an emergency use authorization for an experimental new drug called peramivir, made by Biocryst Pharmaceuticals Inc (BCRX.O) and licensed to Shionogi & Co Ltd (4507.T).

The authorization allows the intravenous drug to be used in hospitalized patients who cannot take pills or inhale Relenza or when Tamiflu or Relenza do not seem to be helping. (Additional reporting by Maggie Fox, editing by Eric Beech and Mohammad Zargham)
