I believe very little of what the main stream media is telling us about swine flu these days. Nor do I trust the sacred word of our current elected and bureaucratic leaders.
I wish it were not so, but it seems obvious by now that our political and media structures are heavily compromised by special interests. Just look at the recent wave of bailouts that have been made at the expense of the taxpayers, all of us.
That said, where are we to go for our information? Who are we to trust? Fortunately, there are quite a few reliable sources out there as well as documents, interviews, and statistics that can paint a clearer picture if we take the time to do a little digging around.
Remember the crazy, pointless hype in recent years over such non-events as SARS, West Nile, Bird Flu, etc.. They were all made out to be the next global medical terror and each fizzled out to nothing. I am equally suspicious about all this swine flu hysteria now, especially as regards the highly suspicious vaccine that is being made mandatory in certain sectors. So what exactly is the swine flu?
I came upon the following article by Dr. Mercola over at mercola.com. I have found him to be a well educated and enlightened resource over the years. He makes several particularly important points:
1. This swine flu appears to be a weak virus. Those who have supposedly died from it have likely had weak immune systems to begin with as other types of flu statistically cause such deaths. The vast majority of reported swine flu cases have been mild.
2. This is not the first time we’ve encountered the swine flu. Back in the 1970’s there was a swine flu scare and a national vaccination program. The program resulted in $1.3 billion worth of claims filed by people who suffered paralysis after receiving injection. Several hundred people developed crippling Guillain-Barre Syndrom with even healthy 20 year-olds ending up as paraplegics. The vaccine was also blamed for at least 25 deaths. The swine flu pandemic itself never materialized as a problem.
3. The swine flu hysteria is set to make a few companies a LOT of money. Couple this with the fact that the pharmaceutical industry gives huge amounts of money to our politicians. The vaccine makers have now been given immunity from any suits that might be filed due to injury from the vaccines. These are all huge red flags that make it even more important to investigate things for yourself.
4. There are a lot of things you can do to naturally protect yourself from swine flu and other seasonally occurring flus:
1) Optimize your vitamin D levels. Vitamin D deficiency is likely the true cause of seasonal flus.
2) Avoid sugar and processed foods as these can weaken your immune system.
3) Get enough rest.
4) Have effective tools to address stress
5) Exercise regularly
6) Take a good animal based source of Omega-3 fats
7) Wash your hands reguarly
8 ) Eat garlic regularly for its natural antibiotic properties
9) Avoid vaccines and hospitals – again, the last swine flu vaccine harmed and killed more people than the swine flu itself. This time around, the vaccine is not completely tested for safety and contains known toxic ingredients such as squalene, thimerosal, and others. (google those two for more information)
So this is an introductory discussion about the swine flu and the vaccination program. I encourage you to read Dr. Mercola’s whole article HERE. He has many other good articles with links to video and such on his site. There are also useful discussions on Youtube and elsewhere on the web. I’ll be posting some of those in the coming days. The more we know, the wiser our choices can be for a bright and healthy future.
Wishing you well!
