Its not just one case but many. All these in the area of Kolkata, India.

Other respected news sites report over 500 affected. This thing is spreading and spreading fast!

Winter has just hit the area.

Hearing on TV that quite a few have died but could not find links to post.

We have to wait to see how this develops...

I don't know if it's because I am just paying more attention lately, but it seems that there have been more 'unknown' epidemics lately. I monitor RSOE and I have been reading several reports from various parts of the world.

All of the root cause illnesses listed carry other major symptoms, however except for two - flu and chemical poisoning.

In this case I'm more suspicious of some kind of poison introduced through the air or water. Any major industrial activity located in that area?

Interesting, I found there are 6 Industrial Parks in the area with the predominant industry being foundries.


1 W.B.I.I.D.C. Growth Birshibpur, Uluberia
2 Balitikuri Industrial Howrah Centre, Estate,
3 Bauria Industrial Estate, Bauria, Uluberia, Howrah.
4 Howrah Maidan Industrial Cum- Commercial Complex
5 Jalan Industrial Complex, Jungalpur, Domjur, Howrah
6 Jalan Industrial Park, Jaladhulagori, Sankrail, Howrah


All the sick recovered and did not have any of the further progression type symptoms of the swine flu, I'm more and more convinced they were exposed to something, probably from one of the metal working plants via airborne toxin or irritant of some kind.

The test results from the NICD should be back soon, hopefully.

2009 - the year when a cocktail of unknown deceases hit the planet and the media told everybody it was the swine flu.

"Joint swelling" is missing from the major symptoms. All the patients had the three major symptoms. They might have had other, minor ones but the article didn't say.

I looked for root cause illnesses which had all three major symptoms and no added major symptoms. They had to have all three and no others. Minor symptoms weren't part of the equation.

It's just an educated guess regardless. The test results should be interesting if they publish them. Follow up seems to be an issue with the press these days. (Unfortunately)
