Pandemics and Birds
There is no doubt in my mind that there will be a pandemic one day
again.....but frankly, when it will happen is imo completely
unpredictable...and if one can prepare globally for it is imo
completely doubtful. Truthfully, we already have pandemics
now....AIDS for one is a real threat to everyone. Yet, people still
act as if its a "gay thing" or somehting that cannot touch them. The fact that there are more people in africa with aids than not should be daily front page news...but its not. Why...because its not profitable at this time to garner that much attention onto it....not for the newspapers nor for the true corporate conglomerates that pull all hte puppet strings of the world. You watch...the day "they" come up with an "AIDS vaccine" will be the day that you will start seeing the insane numbers behind AIDS. Of course, i think that you will start to see the media hype wheels start up and then the vaccine will miraculously emerge mere months later....in supposed response to the public concern. You watch...i know that i come across as completely cynical and paranoid with regards to the whole vax issue...but watch the news...read the news....the paranoia starts and there is a vax or pill treatment with stocks and profit margins right behind it fanning the fires.
There are more things in your life right now that are far far riskier than any bird flu is to you personally right now. Im not being flippant when i say that traffic fatalities are cause for concern.
Globally to date this avian flu has killed almost 100 people...thats
since 2003.....100 since 2003....think about that number for a minute will ya? Approximately 35 per year. The media is hyped about a death rate globally of 35 people per year....think about it. Does that make sense to you?
Who is behind the hype?
Think about it. Think about it. How many traffic fatalities are in north american alone per day?? How many world wide? Do you honestly think that the media in North America is going to start convincing people to stop driving their
petrol greedy SUV's?? No way....fiscially, its profitable for people to drive. Economically, the tamiflu crap recieved insane
profits....which of course "they" say now its ineffective against the avian flu strain thats of real concern. How interesting.
No, you cant "catch" a car accident but so what? Does the modality of transmission of your demise really matter when you consider the real risks?? I say no.
Im very aware of the dangers of driving my car. I take those risks
daily because life is fraught with risk.....im not worried about avian
flu. Not yet.
