WHO gears to declare swine flu pandemic

The World Health Organization is gearing up to declare a swine flu pandemic, a move that could trigger both the large-scale production of vaccines and questions about why the step was delayed for weeks as the virus continued to spread.

My understanding of the definition of 'pandemic' included mass deaths. Now it seems to be associated with mass uses of Tamiflu!

Sounds like WHO continues to be dominated by an interest in the wellbeing of the pharmiceutical companies.

More cases of the Mexican Swine Flu exist in the USA today than ever before, but apparently the press is not allowed to report this ? Heck, they arent even allowed to call it the Mexican Swine Flu now. No one had a problem calling the Asian Bird flu what it was.

The Pork industry would like us to rename it, "Porcine Flu."

Anyway, the good news is, The Porcine Flu is not a racist strain of influinza, but it does seem to be biased just the same.......... it likes young people better than old. Does that make it paedophillic flu?

30,000 cases in a world that contains 3 billion people and this is causing a pandemic? I wonder who is getting to line their pockets with money!

Nearly 100 deaths in the state of Florida alone. Not only can you NOT call it the Mexican Swine Flu, the mainstream media cant even talk about it period.

It's here. We just arent allowed to call it the Mexican Swine Flu now. We must protect the illegal Mexicans all we can nowadays. It's now H1N1 , but the Asian Bird flu is still the Asian Bird Flu though. No need to protect the Asians.
