then maybe ask some mod to ban everyone trying to do personal attacks here from now on. it's a great thread, but from time to time 2-3 persons appear and try to discredit eco's theory and my posts as well, without even trying to proof their claims. if someone thinks something about someone else, (s)he should take it to U2U - such issues are nothing compared to the importance of the subject we're dealing with here, but at the other hand they successfully block any possibility to claim own opinion, because one immediately gets bashed right in the head.
like kids.
PEOPLE ARE DYING, DAMMIT.
I did some looking into this, and only two articles of interest came up. But boy, are they interesting!!
Lets take a look at the first, found here: Bioterrorism in the Ukraine?
This is a pretty informative article giving the rundown of what we know, what we don't know, on line with many theories presented here. A very interesting read to catch up on things, and perhaps refresh yourself on a few facts you may have overlooked in 200 pages.
Now, this is the interesting one! Sep 2009 Interpol had a "Black Death" simulation
"In September 2009 Interpol had a simulation. What they simulated was a "global bioterrorism attack" and it was called the "black death scenario". Interestingly that scenario has now came to be a close reality with the pneumonic outbreak in Ukraine."
It is starting to look more and more like this event was planned, or at the very least, expected.

Thanks for the posts. Yes, it reminds us of the "drills" that happened on 9/11 and 7/7....just before the attacks.

And with Iran threatening this week. And Obama stalling on the Afghan decision this might very well be a showdown.

If you're going to keep putting yourself out there as an expert, you should reveal what you do for a living. After all, when you go to medical continuing education program, every speaker has to disclose their biases, i.e. they have to reveal who they work for, and whether or not they are getting paid any "consulting fees" by any drug companies or other organizations.
I have just pointed out over and over again how biased his posts sound, that that I would like to know what he does for a living and who is paying his salary, etc... since now he's on here giving medical advice.
I never once asked him to leave the thread, nor do I want him to leave. There have been many posts that he has made to this thread that I have found very valuable. However, that does not mean that I also do not find his posts without bias.

It's like the rice pudding sprinkled with arsenic my dear old mother used to feed me. If you're hungry enough it's worth eating anyway, and you can get immune to the arsenic. If someone is sprinkling propaganda onto the information they give, they can still be just as lovable as my mother was.
Btw I really appreciate the sincerity and integrity of your posts. You help make this thread worth reading.
What do you think of the reports of the WHO using tetanus vaccines to cause infertility in girls in Nicaragua and the Philippines? Do you see any possibility of the swine flu vaccine reducing female fertility?

Common cup or plate is problem especially with bacterial infections - streptococus and staphilococus families and so on. Viruses (here kind of flu) usually use respiratory mucosa as pathway into the body. Now they report also possibility of infection through eyes. I think - and please correct me - that there is much greater risk of infection in room with coughing man then if you share cup with him, shake his hand or even kiss him. I live in quite wild community with very low hygiene standard then rest of society think is normal. Yes we had troubles with some illnesses but nothing out of normal. Yes everybody here got some african beast after our friend came back from Mali - but I'm pretty sure that situation would be same with higher hygiene standard. Just one point: If you are in contact with various bugs on regular basis, then your immune system is much stronger. Our children have 3-4 time stronger resistance against hepatitis than average population - laboratory confirmed on 3 cases. Dirt and body fluids interchange are not your enemies if you can keep it in reasonable proportions.

The other major point was something like 200,000 people die each year of "regular" flu on a good year with low death rate and up to 400.000 on a particularly bad year.
What does that mean in relation to this outbreak? About 200 people worldwide have died of swine flu and another say 30 of this new variation?
Well the numbers seem to represent a much much lower mortality rate than regular flu and the rest is media blowing it out of proportion to get people to vaccinate.
And supposedly the WHO changed the definition of a pandemic from highly contagious disease with a hi mortality rate, to just highly contagious/infectious diesease with no mention of mortality rate.
.....SNIP
The expansion of the government's inoculation programme was revealed as the latest weekly bulletin showed a sharp rise in patient deaths and the number of children being admitted to hospital.
