The WHO are using the influenza pandemic of 1918 - 1919 as one of the reasons to justify declaring the current H1N1 swine flu as a pandemic. The circumstances now are very different from 1918-19. Back then there was no vaccines and no anti-viral drugs. All the people had to fight the influenza was the drug aspirin. According to Dr. Karen M. Starko, in an article in Clinical Infectious Diseases, there is a possibility that many of the people who died of influenza may instead of died due to aspirin overdose.

With backing from the reputable Journal of the American Medical Association, people took 1000-milligrams doses of the aspirin drug every three hours, which these days is the equivalent of taking 25 standard 325 milligram tablets in a one day period.

This level of aspirin overdose is now known, in some people, to cause toxicity and build-up of fluid in the lungs, it is this fluid in the lungs which may have contributed to the severity of symptoms, bacterial infections, and death.

There is a report from one pathologist at the time that the quantity of bloody, watery fluid he came across in the lungs while doing autopsies was too much for it to be brought on by viral pneumonia (a complication of the flu). Instead he considered the watery liquid must have been caused by something else, -- aspirin overdose.

The Year 2009.

Every year in the United States, on average, 36000 people die from getting the seasonal influenza. In the United Kingdom, in a normal year, 12000 people will die from the seasonal flu. World wide it has been predicted that almost a half-million people will die as a consequence of having the seasonal flu.

Does the World Health Organisation declare a world-wide influenza pandemic at level 6 every year for the seasonal flu. No. They do not.

According to the WHO on June 11, 2009. In the United States there were 13217 cases of swine flu and 27 deaths. In the United Kingdom there were 822 cases and zero deaths. World-wide there were 28744 affirmed cases of the swine flu and one hundred and forty four deaths.

In a statement to the press on June 11, 2009 the Director-General of the World Health Organisation, Dr Margaret Chan, said that after conferring with leading influenza experts, virologists, and public health officials and an Emergency Committee established for this purpose. It was decided to raise the level of the swine flu pandemic alert from phase 5 to phase 6.

More than half a million people dying from seasonal influenza every year is not enough dead people for the WHO to issue a pandemic alert of level 6. When 144 people die from the H1N1 swine flu virus this very minimal number of dead people IS sufficient for the World Health Organisation to proclaim a pandemic alert of level 6. This is strange.

With 12000 people every year dying from the seasonal flu the United Kingdom government usually buys up to fifteen million doses of seasonal flu vaccinations. Three quarters of which go to the over sixty-fives.

With a death rate of zero, on June 11, the United Kingdom Government has ordered 120 million doses of the 2009 H1N1 flu vaccine. Enough vaccine for every person in the UK to have two shots. This is irrational.

According to the vaccine manufacturers, during the 2008 flu season in the US, 143 million doses of seasonal influenza vaccine were made readily available for people to purchase at no cost to the US Government.

The US Government has ordered 250 million doses of the swine flu vaccine at a cost of two billion dollars and has promised to buy enough to vaccinate every American if there is enough demand.

With 36000 people dying from seasonal influenza every year the United States Government spends nothing. Yet when twenty-seven people die from the swine flue virus the United States Government spends two billion dollars on a vaccine. Why.

Something strange is going on.
