By now, the world has already realized that the dreaded pandemic-level disease called swine flu, also known as Influenza A (H1N1) ‘isn’t as contagious and deadly as feared.’ Unfortunately for Big Pharma and vaccine manufacturers who want to cash in on the intended pandemic paranoia (remember HIV/AIDS?), ‘the initial fear that swine flu [...]

It’s a most timely garb for the busy executive who just might be paranoid over the infectious spread of the dreaded Influenza A H1N1 virus, also known as Swine Flu. A Japanese menswear company named Haruyama Trading has produced some 50,000 pieces of said suit that is ‘coated with titanium dioxide, a chemical commonly used in toothpaste and cosmetics [...]

Pandemic diseases, due largely to their alarmist and apocalyptic propaganda, have reduced some humans to a sorry showcase of fears and vulnerabilities. The virus has also revealed weak health care systems, as well as unprepared and incapable medical infrastructure and hospital systems. All these while some people concoct conspiracy theories and accuse [...]

A leaked ‘UN report says pandemic may result in anarchy unless the rich western countries pay for antiviral drugs and vaccines.’ The amount to shell out is $1.5 billion. The swine pandemic is expected to ‘kill millions’ which would ‘cause anarchy in the world’s poorest nations,’ thereby causing weak economies to completely collapse, [...]

The recommended medication for swine flu or the novel Influenza A (H1N1) virus is Tamiflu. According to the British Medical Journal, “Taking oseltamivir (Tamiflu) is not a pleasant experience, with side effects that include nausea, diarrhoea, and hallucinations.” A very recent UK research reveals that ‘more than half of children taking antiviral [...]

The method used in estimating the proportion of people who will die if infected with the swine flu virus is inherently flawed, according to UK researchers. The present death rate estimate used in the UK and the US is 0.5 percent or that for every 1000 people infected, about 5 of them will die from the infection. There are reasons why this method of [...]

The World Health Organization (WHO) has already hiked up the H1N1 influenza, formerly known as swine flu, to a global pandemic level. So far, most infections are mild, but the agency believes the virus could mutate at any time to a more dangerous form. As of June 19, there are 44,287 laboratory-confirmed cases worldwide. In the U.S., the condition [...]

After an emergency meeting, the World Health Organization (WHO) has finally declared a global flu pandemic, a first in 40 years after the 1968 Hong Kong flu that killed approximately 1 million people. Health authorities admit, however, that ‘the current pandemic seems to be moderate and causing mild illness in most people.’ Professor John Oxford, [...]

The latest outbreaks in several countries of the Influenza A (H1N1) virus, formerly known as swine flu, may just be the harbinger of an impending reality that disease is bound to be the century’s most daunting challenge. Malaria is also rampant in the world, as well as terrifying outbreaks of dengue fever that is said to be more currently devastating [...]

The vaccine specific to Influenza A (H1N1) virus, formerly known as swine flu, will be available by November at the earliest. The predicted production timeline has been set back by two months from the earlier September schedule. The World Health Organization (WHO) has requested the vaccine makers to reserve a portion of the production for poor countries. The [...]
