the avian flu H5N1 pandemic is the most likely threat. as it slowly mutates, progressively stack up on the canned foods...

Cholesterol drugs flu-busters? Cholesterol-lowering drugs called statins might help fill a void in the global medicine cabinet during a flu pandemic, a U.S. scientist argues in an upcoming issue of a medical journal. The drugs, which appear to fight inflammation and the damage it can inflict, might be useful to help modulate the impact if the virus that causes a future flu pandemic is one that induces an overactive immune response, said Dr. David Fedson.

Anyon can make a vaccine for any virus, you jus cana't guarantee it will work. You are hearig about preparing because you have time to get food and prepare to survive. Fortunately, bird flu has not yet made all the chnages it would need to be the killer flu it could easily be. It could change to a killer flu in 1 day by combining with a flu that is easily spread between people. That is all it will take. Since viruses duplicate themselves every 20 minutes that is all it would take. get Ready NOW!

onemorepromethean(.)com ^^^ Details on avian flu vaccine and the World Health Organisation's protection racket. The post there is also on wikileaks' selected reports.

Good advice and I don't doubt that about the vaccines, since they are already so full of other crap. Vaccines are for generating a customer base. I recommen more vitamin C than just 500mg per day. Calcium citrate, Ester C, and Rose Hips are good sources, and you are right about acetic acid being crap.

The odds against it mutating into a human transmissable form makes it statistically impossible. The people it killed slept on the floor with their chickens and many were elderly. The CDC said it was not a threat once, but just once.

Does Tamiflu work? (I don't know) If it does, I'm glad we have it.
