H1N1 vaccine clinics

H1N1 vaccine clinics are now open in some parts of the world like British Columbia and Chicago. These H1N1 vaccines will be given with high priority to those who are at very high risk of flu complications.

In Chicago, six free H1N1 vaccine clinics will be opened to help combat the H1N1 swine flu pandemic, according to the city's health department. Health officials said free clinics will be set up at six City College locations (all except Harold Washington) to administer the two million doses of swine flu vaccine the city expects to get from the federal government. A first shipment of 16,000 nasal-spray vaccines arrived last week and is being administered to the most at-risk. The city expects weekly shipments of between 50,000 to 150,000 doses of the vaccine.

H1N1 vaccine clinics - Swine Flu Vaccine
In Vancouver, the Vancouver Coastal Health (VCH) had started its H1N1 vaccination clinics on Monday, giving free shots to priority high-risk groups, including people under 65 with chronic health issues, pregnant women, and people who live in remote or isolated communities, including first nations.

The second phase of the vaccination program starts next Monday (November 2), when the H1N1 flu shot will also be available to children six months to five years of age, people who work in health care, and people who are in contact at home or through home care services with infants and those who have compromised immune systems. People who are not at highest risk are requested to wait until mid-November to get immunized when BC receives its full orders of H1N1 vaccine.

But is there really a need for people to get these flu vaccine shots? I just wondered how intensely necessary it could be, because there are some reports saying that these vaccines are developed to depopulate the human race. Sounds scary. I think people should meditate deeper into their minds and think thoroughly, will these vaccines save them or will it cause them their lives.

Swine Flu Virus

This is a follow-up to what I have written days ago about the formerly called Swine Flu Virus or Influenza A (H1N1) virus. Most countries around the world are in some panic due to the health threats that this swine flu virus strain is causing.

Check out the following articles:


So, please, people, DON'T TAKE ANY VACCINES OFFERED. THEY COULD KILL YOU BEFORE ANY VIRUS KILLS YOU.

In October 2005 the Pentagon ordered vaccination of all US military personnel worldwide against what it called Avian Flu, H5N1. Scare stories filled world media. Then, Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld announced he had budgeted more than $1 billion to stockpile the vaccine, Oseltamivir sold under the name, Tamiflu. President Bush called on Congress to appropriate another $2 billion for Tamiflu stocks.

Tamiflu is no mild candy to be taken lightly. It has heavy side effects. It contains matter that could have potentially deadly consequences for a person's breathing and often reportedly leads to nausea, dizziness and other flu-like symptoms.

Since the outbreak of Swine Flu Panic (not Swine Flu but Swine Flu Panic) sales of Tamiflu as well as any and every possible drug marketed as flu related have exploded. Wall Street firms have rushed to issue 'buy' recommendations for the company. 'Gimme me a shot Doc, I don't care what it isÉI don' wanna dieÉ'

The press reports are invariably biased. They will quote 152 or 159 deaths from the H1N1 virus, when in fact only seven of these deaths are associated with the A/H1N1 swine flue strain, according to the Minister of Health. The other deaths may be associated with cases of ordinary flu and/or related conditions, but it seems that the reports rarely make the distinction. Moreover, no details were given as to the lab results pertaining to these seven cases.


Swine flu panic is spreading in Mexico and soldiers are patrolling the streets after it was confirmed that human to human transmission is occurring and that the virus is a brand new strain which is seemingly affecting young, healthy people the worst. Questions about the source of the outbreak are also being asked after a public health official said that the virus was “cultured in a laboratory”.

Scientists said the virus combines genetic material from pigs, birds and humans in a way researchers have not seen before. Amazing! Suddenly a deadly virus combining DNA from three different species appears from nowhere! Or really nowhere? Or perhaps from a U.S. biowarfare lab?

Influenza A (H1N1) Virus

Globally considered as one of the most deadly causing virus outbreaks in the history of the human race, Influenza A (H1N1), formerly called as Swine Flu Virus had brought fear to the lives of millions of people.

It was known that Influenza A (H1N1) virus had started in Mexico and slowly began spreading to other countries throughout the world. The World Health Organization with the coordination of other different institutions and health departments of concerned countries have continually monitored the evolution of the virus and scientists are trying hard to find solutions to combat the effects of the virus to humans until a vaccine be formulated and be made available for people's protection.

But how did this virus came to existence? This is one of the critical questions that lingers in my mind. Why?

In today's modern world, the use of medicinal plants and herbs have largely increased its popularity and more and more companies have shifted and invested to the production of natural-based food supplements as part of our diet. Anywhere we look, we could see flyers and billboards of the products, and we could read from papers and hear testimonies from people how a certain kind of food supplement had helped boast their energy and improved their health although some of the labels say, "No Approved Therapeutic Claims". Even doctors prescribed to their patients these food supplements. As these new alternative medicines increase popularity subsequently dominating the market, the demand for pharmaceutical drugs have slowly decreased.

According to the news, there is yet no vaccine available to combat this Influenza A (H1N1) virus and there is no other primary cure for this illness other than the prescribed medicine Tamiflu.

Just a point of query, is it possible for this Swine Flu Virus or Influenza A (H1N1) Virus to be scientifically man-made? To cause what? I think I'll leave the rest of the thoughts to you.
