Alright,
If that's the case and you want to hear what I have, here's what is latest I heard with my own thoughts.
Like I said, can't back most of it up.
First of all and most importantly, there are swine flu cases in there, but the actual amount of people reported to have died to flu like illnesses is
still smaller than it was last year when the regular flu started, I didn't get numbers from my source, but ABC News article was talking about this as
well and they claimed it to be 10 percent lower. Maybe that is true, maybe not, I don't know.
So, in the very beginning it has been hyped up from political reasons. The biggest one is because of upcoming elections which are very important for
that country.
It might be possible as well, that there are going to be problems with the gas supply, Putin reacted to it already just a few days ago before this all
started. And before this "outbreak" started, there have been very strange news emerging in Ukranian media, I remember reading from some children's
summer camp, where some of the officials who are high in the party as well were blamed to be pedophiles, which was then showed to be far from truth by
other sources. Lots of finger pointing and bad blood between opposing parties and they will go to extremities to gain the upper hand.
I have been asking about those very same topics that have been discussed here as well because I wanted to rule them out for sure. "plague" like
symptoms and such. ..Well, none have been heard which are reliable according to my source. They have been looked into and the reason appears to be
pretty simple:
The biggest problem for some of the rumors are that the hospitals in country side are small and doctors in there haven't had any training and
information about the flu, so when it hits hard ..The symptoms, Like it can be found from the symptoms listed here, are nasty and scares hell out of
those who can't link it to H1N1 straight away, making them to find alternative reasons for it, and let's be honest: plague would fit well into some
of those symptoms.
To sum it up: No killer bug, no plague, nothing really alarming in that sense (I think H1N1 is alarming though if it spreads). H1N1 is present, it is
there, but it has not been found to be killing people like some source has suggested and situation is under control though it is actually bigger
epidemic than they first thought. Anyways they have been even able to get each one of those suspected cases who reported in to hospitals, to
quarantine. So once again, there are even less deaths this year.
So, like I said it seems it has taken them by suprise a bit (or then again, they even try to squeeze some money out from the international community
with this, which could be possible too), People are getting aware of it that there is H1N1 and they have to get ready for it (maybe it's bit too late
already though). So they have been buying pharmacies and shops empty from supplies, with this hype going on to even make it bigger, it's causing some
of the people to overreact and to magnify the "panic".
I think this did hit Ukranian people by suprise because:
This hype about the swine flu which has been going on in western media, ..It has stayed in the western media. (maybe it has been hyped in Asia, middle
east ..possible, but let's stick in this area) I am not completely sure though is this the case in Ukrainian media as well, we need Ukranian to tell
how it has been reported there.. Anyways, I read yesterday from Russian news source where they were even blaming the vaccination from the deaths of
some people who got the shot and adviced people to think twice before going for it. So this Big pharma "take the shot before is too late" is
certainly not in the news in Russia and I highly doubt that's the case in Ukraine too.
So, in one day, very dangerous killer bug emerges, schools closed, mass gatherings denied, quarantines put into place, lots of rumors which tend to
get bigger from mouth to mouth... What do we have? The current situation..
Now before some of you guys start to discredit me from this or start to do any personal attacks. Feel free to do so but remember this: This is my
opinion based into the information I got and what I have gathered, by no means you have to take it as truth and nor I meant it to be god's word.
Instead, it's just information for those of you who want it. There you go.
And sorry for the mistakes and if it does not make any sense at some parts, am ill myself, just seem to get worse and worse and mistakes tend to
happen
