I'm wondering, these reports all seem to indicate known diseases. Leukemia is mentioned, Influenza, Pneumonia and others.
Does anyone find it strange that this is a big mystery and yet the mysterious aliment is "maybe" what people have been dying from forever? How is that a mystery?
Of course officially its unconfirmed what "exactly" is responsible. Probably never officially will be.
I'll tell you what is confirmed...
Has anyone heard of even one single person dying anywhere around the globe of radioactive contamination from Fukushima?
Not one_single_confirmed_case?
Hmmm...

OK, I'm a little freaked out to be honest. I usually ignore these virus scare things, but...my gram came down with something two days ago that's gotten progressively worse. She's coughing and hacking and has had to have her oxygen on for days. Where usually it's a very sporadic thing. She's got these sores on her lips and her right arm is swollen. My uncle took her to the walk in clinic and she said they couldn't figure out what was causing it.
A health report shows one of the two people who died recently due to respiratory illness suffered from the H1N1 virus. A second person also died but it's not immediately clear what virus that person suffered though at least one person treated tested positive for the AH3 virus.
Niman also said it's also unusual for people in their 30's and 40's, unless there have underlying conditions, to die from either H1N1 or AH3. Both victims were in the age range mentioned by Dr. Niman.

Not all of the patients are the same age. In the Texas case, yes. But in Alabama, the reported age of patients being admitted, ranges from their "20s' to late 80s.'"

Also, the CDC is awaiting lab test results - due back later this morning, that may determine the origins of the 'mystery illness' in Alabama.

Obama needed yet more of a smoke screen to divert from IRS, Benghazi, Fast n Furious, AP, Foxnews, and every other scandal he has going on right now.
Obama: "Hey, CDC? Need your help."
CDC: "Yes Mr. President"
Did Obama cause the tornado in OK as well?? It seems that he is the perfect scapegoat for everything bad that happens in America.
He can't escape the scandals surrounding him.edit on 22-5-2013 by olaru12 because: (no reason given)

He immediately put him in his vehicle and started for Baptist Hospital in Beaumont again. Halfway there he was met by an ambulance as the seizures hadn’t stopped. That was the last time Tyler was conscious.
Once there he was admitted and then sent to Hermann Hospital in Houston.

Y'all best get started looking for the liposomal vitamin C thread, that stuff for real is a virus killer!
It's supposed to be more available then IV vitamin C, it works, very well. Mega Dose Vitamin C for the win!
PARIS — Scientists said Tuesday they had managed to kill lab-grown tuberculosis (TB) bacteria with good old Vitamin C — an “unexpected” discovery they hope will lead to better, cheaper drugs. A team from Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York made the accidental find while researching how TB bacteria become resistant to the TB drug isoniazid. The researchers added isoniazid and a “reducing agent” known as cysteine to the TB in a test tube, expecting the bacteria to develop drug resistance. Instead, the team “ended up killing off the culture”, according to the study’s senior author William Jacobs, who said the result was “totally unexpected.” Reducing agents chemically reduce other substances. The team then replaced the cysteine in the experiment with another reducing agent — Vitamin C. It, too, killed the bacteria. “I was in disbelief,” said Jacobs of the outcome published in the journal Nature Communications. “Even more surprisingly… when we left out the TB drug isoniazid and just had Vitamin C alone, we discovered that Vitamin C kills tuberculosis.” The team next tested the vitamin on drug resistant strains of TB, with the same outcome. In the lab tests, the bacteria never developed resistance to Vitamin C — “almost like the dream drug”, Jacobs said in a video released by the college.
