Is anyone else concerned that Baxter pharmaceuticals has been designated to design a Swine flu vaccine when just weeks ago they shipped out vaccines that were tainted with live Avian flu? Just think what would have happened if the tainted vaccines were not caught ahead of time.
Are they actually trying to kill people? It seems like the first scandal may have been a way to cause a widespread pandemic so that they could in turn make money from the disbursement of a vaccine?
Are you pregnant and getting the H1N1 vaccine along with the normal flu shot…?
The reason I’m asking is because i keep hearing how important it is to get these shot…I’m not as concerned about the regular flu shot as I am with the H1N1…I am currently 7 months pregnant, and i’m terrified to get the H1N1 and then later hear of a recall or it causing major health problems in unborn babies…Just wanted to know if anyone shares my concern and what are your plans…Thanks
I’m not getting either of them. I’ve never had a regular flu shot (and have also never had the flu) and all my family members who have ever had a flu shot have had an adverse reaction to it. My grandmother (a RN) was hospitalized the first (and only) time she had one. She said never again! As for the H1N1, I don’t care what the “experts” say…it hasn’t been tested enough on pregnant women and nobody knows what will happen. I’d rather not take my chances.
I’m pregnant with my third baby, and all three of them have been (or will be, in this case) carried through winter/flu season. I’m going to continue doing what I do best–washing my hands consistently, using hand sanitizer on a regular basis, and keeping a wide berth of sick people.
Batch of H1N1 vaccine recalled for severe reactions!
Apparently, someone forgot to tell that to the scientists who are actually experts in the field of climatology. I guess, but you know better than them.
whereby a patient’s airway becomes inflamed and constricted limiting breathing – can be enormously frightening. The lack of control that comes from having your own breath leave you is something only an asthma sufferer can understand.
The treatments sought for asthma include a number of highly successful and reliable medical interventions. Asthma patients often rely on respiratory inhalers and prescription medications to easy asthma symptoms and prevent attacks. Further, for those asthma patients whose condition is exacerbated by environmental stimuli, avoidance of allergens becomes a main focus of daily life.
Today – as the emphasis on healthy living becomes more prominent – more and more people are looking for a natural cure for asthma. And they’re finding them; ways to alleviate symptoms and prevent attacks. The natural cure for asthma derives from a holistic approach to treating the whole body, thus correcting specific symptoms.
One approach to a natural cure for asthma that has been embraced is chiropractic work. Patients report a greater overall feeling of well-being after visiting with a chiropractor. Chiropractic manipulation works to align the spinal column thus removing pressure from the nervous system. Because our central nervous system is all connected along the spine, we can be enormously benefited by having adjustments.
Another approach to a natural cure for asthma is acupuncture whereby sterilized needles are placed – painlessly – in strategic areas of the body to correct internal imbalances.
Additionally, many in search of a natural cure for asthma have found that certain types of exercise – most specifically yoga – have relieved their asthma symptoms. Again, overall health in the body addresses many symptoms.
Others have found non-traditional techniques such as hypnosis and laser treatments to clear airways very successful in their search for a natural cure for asthma.
To research a natural cure for asthma, go online; there are many resources available for those who suffer from asthma including a multitude of chat forums wherein other people share their experiences and what has worked to ease their asthma symptoms. Having support from people who understand can be more than half the battle.
No matter what you choose in your journey to alleviate your asthma, always check with a medical professional prior to experimentation. It may be that you can use any of the methods mentioned above in conjunction with traditional medical treatment. Either way, staying proactive and positive will one day find you enjoying a much healthier life.

Serious decisions must be made about symptom recognition, vaccination and vaccine safety, antiviral drug treatment options, testing, caregiving procedures, patient care, respiratory protection, social distancing requirements, school and co…

If given the swine flu vaccine the nasal spray do you think its possible to sneeze and spread the virus to someone else who has not been vaccinated yet? especially when the nasal vaccine contains a weakened but live virus? Please let me know what you think, I have 3 kids suppose to be getting it Monday morning and need to know…
Good. Absolutely.
Possible but not likely. Discuss your concerns with someone at the clinic, and then get the vaccine.

An Introduction To The Latest Global Health Threat Called Bird Flu
The World Health Organization (WHO) recently sounded a global health alarm in response to a new threat that has been emerging in several regions, particularly Asia. This threat is the avian influenza, more commonly known as bird flu, which is an infectious diseases that affects only birds…until recently.
What exactly is bird flu?
Bird flu is an infectious disease caused by several subtypes of the Influenza A virus, which is known to affect birds, particularly migratory birds, ducks and chickens. Bird flu is also reportedly known to affect pigs and ducks although these animals only serve as carriers and are not known to exhibit symptoms of the disease. Migratory birds, in general, are equipped to handle the virus. They do not get sick but they have the ability to contaminate other birds in areas they migrate to. This is crucial factor in the spread of disease because migratory birds travel great distances, often from one country to another.
When did bird flu start?
Bird flu is not a new disease. First discovered in Italy in 1878, it was initially called “fowl plague” because it largely affected chicken livestock. However, it was only in 1955 that the Influenza A virus is the cause of bird flu. Since then, several subtypes of the Influenza A virus has been discovered in about a hundred bird species.
According to research, wild waterfowls, particularly ducks, are the most common carriers of the disease. The ducks, however, do not get sick from it. It was discovered that gulls, waterfowls and shorebirds are natural “reservoirs” of the bird flu virus. These animals appear to have developed antibodies to fight against the virus. Other bird species, however, have not developed this immunity to the virus.
Symptoms of bird flu
Birds with mild forms of avian influenza can exhibit ruffled feathers and poor egg production. Birds with advanced or extreme forms of the disease may show signs of excessive shedding, respiratory infections and a swollen head. When the disease worsens, death usually comes within 48 hours. This is because bird flu not only affects the respiratory systems of birds but also other tissues and organs, causing major hemorrhaging.
History of bird flu outbreaks
In the 1980s, bird flu outbreaks in chickens and birds occurred in Scotland, England, Canada, Germany, United States, Australia and Ireland. Again in the 1990s the same countries, with the exception of Germany and Scotland, had outbreaks. This time, Italy, Pakistan, Hong Kong, the Netherlands and Chile joined them. However, these outbreaks were small-scale; and highly pathogenic outbreaks are rare.
Then in 1997, a major outbreak of bird flu occurred in Hong Kong, which left 18 people infected and six people killed. In response to the outbreak, the Hong Kong government killed Hong Kong’s entire poultry population, which was estimated at 1.5 million. Many believe that this rapid response to the bird flu outbreak was the best solution and helped avert it from becoming a pandemic.
To determine if a bird flu virus is highly pathogenic, eight chickens between four and eight weeks old are inoculated with the infectious virus. If 75 percent of the samples (six chickens) die within eight days, the virus is considered to be very pathogenic. In addition, a highly pathogenic virus will show a distinctive sequence of amino acids located at the cleavage site, the HA part of the chain.
