Will the avian flu cause a disaster similar to the Spanish flu of 1918 that killed more than fifty million people in the world?
Avian flu or avian influenza is spreading at an alarming rate and it is believed that if it continues its flight, it has the potential to cause another major pandemic around the world. This time, it is estimated that up to one hundred and fifty million people may die.
Avian flu is a disease caused by a specific type of avian or bird influenza virus. Scientists have discovered that there are fifteen types of avian flu viruses that affect the bird populace. The current outbreak of avian flu is caused by the H5N1 virus.
Although the avian flu virus is supposed to be typically affecting the birds, the nature of this flu virus is that it can mutate and transfer from one species to another. The avian flu virus that has been killing birds previously is now affecting human beings too. Those people who have been affected contacted the disease because they were unhygienic in handling infected poultry.
The H5N1 virus has been found to be highly contagious and it can be transmitted to human beings through the contact of excretal or nasal secretions from infected birds. In addition, if the avian flu mutates and joins with a human flu virus, it will be transmitted easily from one person to another. If not detected and treated early, it can become fatal. The deadly avian flu virus is highly infectious and if it spreads rapidly, it will cause rapid fatalities to the human species.
This virus was first discovered in Hong Kong in 1997. It was spread by infected migratory birds such as wild ducks, swallows and wild geese to domesticated fowls like chicken, ducks, geese, turkeys and eventually affecting human beings too. A number of countries have confirmed human deaths due to avian flu and the figures have been constantly on the rise. Apparently, the avian flu virus has infected several hundred people and killing at least one hundred and fifty of them. It has also spread to a number of other countries such as Cambodia, mainland China, Indonesia, Thailand, and Vietnam.
The lethal H5N1 virus has caused the death or culling of an estimated two hundred million birds over a widespread of countries such as Cambodia, China (including Hong Kong), Indonesia, Kazakhstan, Lao People’s Democratic Republic, Thailand, Malaysia, Mongolia, Romania, Russia, Turkey and Vietnam.
When infected with the pathogenic H5N1 virus, the birds may develop severe sicknesses such as respiratory diseases and they usually die within the same day. Other telltale symptoms are loss of appetite, diarrhea, nervousness and depression as well as a reduction in egg production and ruffled feathers.
As prevention is the best cure, the precautionary measures initiated by the various affected countries helps in curbing aggravation.
At poultry farms, once a bird is infected, it must be culled immediately and the others properly vaccinated. While the owners are to routinely send randomly selected birds to the nearest avian lab for thorough check-ups, all of their workers must be properly covered when handling the fowls so as to avoid any direct contacts with infected birds.
It is believed that the avian flu virus cannot survive in temperatures above 100C. As such, all poultry products must be cooked thoroughly and properly. In addition, it is important to wash one’s hands with soap and hot water before food preparation and meals or after coming in contact with raw poultry products.
Although two drugs, Tamiflu (oseltamivir) and Relenza (zanamivir) are found to be effective against the deadly avian flu virus if taken within forty-eight of occurrence of first symptoms, no preventive drugs has yet been discovered against the H5N1 virus.
Avian flu infection in human beings portrays common flu symptoms such as cough, fever, headache, sore throat and muscle aches or pains. These may then progress to life threatening complications such as severe chest pains, breathing difficulties, respiratory failure and viral pneumonia. However, at times, the only symptom that an affected person has is an eye infection such as conjunctivitis, which can be mistaken to be ordinary sore eyes. As such, there may be misconceptions on whether the person has ordinary flu or the life-threatening avian flu.
The avian flu is certainly a potential pandemic threat to humanity and has to be addressed globally. As prevention has always been the best cure, the temporary solution is to maintain a healthy and hygienic lifestyle all the time.

H1N1 SWINE FLU SINE , SYSMPTOMS AND TREATMENT BY DR HARSHAD RAVAL MD (Hom.)
Now a day all over the world people are suffering from swine flu so this disease is declared as a pandemic disease. This flu can preventable and successfully treatable by homeopathy medicine. The 2009 flu outbreak in humans is due to a new strain of influenza A virus subtype H1N1 that derives in part from human influenza, avian influenza, and two separate strains of swine influenza. The origins of this new strain are unknown. It passes with apparent ease from human to human, an ability attributed to an as-yet unidentified mutation. The strain in most cases causes only mild symptoms and the infected person makes a full recovery without requiring medical attention and without the use of antiviral medicines.
What is H1N1 (swine) flu?
H1N1 (referred to as “swine flu” early on) is a new influenza virus causing illness in people. This new virus was first detected in people in the United States in April 2009. Other countries, including Mexico and Canada, have also reported people sick with this new virus. This virus is spreading from person-to-person, probably in much the same way that regular seasonal influenza viruses spread.
In late March and early April 2009, cases of human infection with swine influenza A (H1N1) viruses were first reported in Southern California and near San Antonio, Texas.
In the beginning it was difficult to predict the effect of this virus on general population. In seasonal flu, there are certain people who are at higher risk of serious flu-related complications. This includes people with 65 years of more age, children below five years, pregnant women, and people of any age with chronic medical conditions.
This virus is contagious but, at this time, it not known how easily the virus spreads between people. The symptoms of H1N1 swine flu in people are similar to the symptoms of regular human flu and include fever, cough, sore throat, body aches, headache, chills and fatigue. Some people have reported diarrhoea and vomiting associated with H1N1 swine flu. Severe illness (pneumonia and respiratory failure) and even deaths have been reported with H1N1 swine flu infection. Like seasonal flu, H1N1 swine flu may cause a worsening of underlying chronic diseases.
Homeopaths are singularly confident about treating viral illness, including flu. There is a long history of successful management of serious acute infections with homeopathy, particularly the flu. Homeopathic medicine proved extremely effective in the management of the 1918 flu epidemic, and it will prove itself in any future flu pandemic, just as it does every winter in the treatment of that year’s flu cases. The Spanish flu pandemic was a plague that exceeded the ravages of the Bubonic Plague of 1347 that killed a third of the European population. Worldwide the Spanish flu killed an estimated 40 million people. In some primitive cultures the death rate was 100 percent.
Fortunately, many patients in the United States had access to homeopathic medical care. A report to the American Institute of Homeopathy in 1921 documented the dramatic success of homeopathy in the worst flu pandemic in history. The death rate of 24,000 flu cases under conventional medical care in that study was 28.2 percent, while the death rate of 26,000 cases treated with homeopathy was a nearly miraculous 1.05 percent. Similarly, many homeopathic physicians each reported treating thousands of patients with very few deaths.
1The most significant flu pandemic occurred in 1918/1919. The global mortality rate from the 1918/1919 pandemic is not known, but is estimated at 2.5 to 5% of those who were infected died. With 20% or more of the world population suffering from the disease to some extent, a case-fatality ratio this high would mean that about 0.5-1% or 50 million to 100 million people worldwide were killed. In 1957, an Asian flu pandemic infected some 45 million Americans and killed 70,000. Eleven years later, lasting from 1968 to 1969, the Hong Kong flu pandemic afflicted 50 million Americans and caused 33,000 deaths, costing approximately $3.9 billion. In 1976, about 500 soldiers became infected with swine flu over a period of a few weeks.
Signs and Symptoms:
* Difficulty in breathing or shortness of breath * Pain or pressure in the chest or abdomen * Sudden dizziness, sneezing, coughing * Confusion * Severe or persistent vomiting * Flu-like symptoms improve but then return with fever and worse cough
Coughing, Diarrhea, Fever, Headache, Lack of appetite, Lethargy
children, emergency warning signs and symptoms : * Bluish or gray skin colour * Not drinking enough fluids * Severe or persistent vomiting * Not waking up or not interacting * Being so irritable that the child does not want to be held * Flu-like symptoms improve but then return with fever and worse cough
Which of these swine flu medicines to take with Homeopathy?
If the patient has mild flu like symptoms (runny nose and watery eyes etc) but no other peculiar symptom but is anxious if it might be swine flu - think about Aconitum napellus: This remedy is used for symptoms that come on very quickly and strongly especially at night along with fever and thirst alternating with chills.
If the flu patient is listless, prostrated, indifferent, has offensive diarrhoea and the parts rested upon feel sore and bruised - think about Baptisia. Influenza with marked gastro-intestinal symptoms may need this remedy, especially when there are present putrid diarrhea stools.
Homeopathy swine Flu Prevention
For at least the past 125 years homeopathic practitioners have used the medicine Influenzinum as a flu preventive. Influenzinum is a homeopathic medicine made from flu viruses. A proprietary preparation is produced each year using the flu virus strains recommended by the World Health Organization for the year’s vaccine production. The typical dosage is once per week for four weeks beginning in October or later, followed by another dose three weeks later.
Between the years 1918 and 1957 the preparation of Influenzinum was derived from samples of blood or nasal secretions taken from patients who contracted the flu during the deadly 1918 flu pandemic. Subsequent to 1957 Influenzinum preparations come from a homeopathic preparation of the yearly flu viruses chosen for the flu vaccine.
Homeopathic Flu Medicines, Natural Remedies for the Swine flu:
The two most frequently indicated homeopathic flu medicines over the past 100 years have been Gelsemium and Bryonia. There are significant differences in the symptom pictures of these two medicines that make it easy to decide which is the better fit. They are not the only medicines used to treat the flu, but between them they will probably fit the majority of cases.
SWINE FLU Homeopathy remedies:
Arsenicum album: For exhaustion and chills as well as restlessness and anxiety, watery runny nose, frequent sneezing and dry cough. The head feels very warm while the body is chilled
Allium cepa. Profuse catarrhal coryza; the nose runs freely, there is sneezing, irritability cough, for when the eyes water and sting, along with frequent
Apis mellifica: For fever which alternates between sweating and dry periods, flushing of the face, sore throat and swollen tonsils in conjunction with low thirst, pain in the ears and swollen eyelids.
Antimonium tart: For late night feelings of suffocation, mucous rattling in the lungs, strong frequent cough.
Baryta carbonica: For runny nose, swollen lymph nodes, tonsils, adenoids and lips.
Belladonna: For sudden and strong symptoms which can include fever, hot skin, flushed face and hypersensitivity to light as well as an inflamed sore throat, strong migraine, frequent cough and feeling of cold to the extremities.
Bryonia: For muscle aches, headache, frequent strong cough, stomach pains and a dry mouth with constant thirst.
The trouble here is largely bronchial and going down. When a person is very grumpy and feels miserable with the flu, wanting only to lie still and be left alone, this remedy is likely to be useful. Headache, muscles, aches, and cough or stomach pain may be the major symptoms. Everything feels worse from even the slightest motion. The person’s mouth usually is dry, with a thirst for long cold drinks.
Carbo veg: For throat roughness and rawness accompained by pain, hoarseness, evening cough and mucous.
Causticum: For cough at night or caused by stooping and accompanied by hip pain, painful throat, rattling in the chest, feeling of lack of air when talking or walking.
Chamomilla: For tightness of breath, dry cough at night, wheezing and rattling in the chest, hoarseness and raw throat.
Dulcamara: For nasal congestion and facial pain especially if the individual has a history of allergies.This is one of our best remedies in the acute form; the eyes are suffused, the throat is sore and the cough hurts because of the muscular soreness. If brought on by damp, cold changes in the weather, so much the surer is Dulcamara indicated.
Euphrasia: For inflamed teary eyes, bouts of sneezing, cough from phlegm collecting in the throat and clear nasal discharge.
Ferrum phosphoricum: For reddened cheeks, migraine, tiredness and fever along with frequent dry cough, powerful thirst and vomiting after meals.
Kali bichromicum: For the later stages when it is hard to clear the throat from viscous stringy phlegm, strong coughing, and pain at the base of the nose.
Kali carb: For middle of the night coughing, hoarseness, sharp jabbing pains on the sides of the chest when breathing deeply.
Lycopodium: For forcible cough, especially at night or when breathing deeply, pressure and constriction of the chest.
Mercurius solubilis: For swollen lymph nodes, bad breath, tonsil or ear infection, sensitivity to temperature changes and sweating and drooling at night.
Natrum muriaticum: For migraine, attenuated sense of taste and smell, cold sores around the mouth, chapped or cracked lips and clear nasal mucous.
Nux vomica: For strong chills and nausea, digestive cramping, painful cough and forced breathing along with high fever, hypersensitivity to light, odors and sound.
Oscillococcinum (also called Anas barbariae): This one is generally regarded to be the number one product utilized for homeopathic flu remedies. It is widely used in Continental Europe, especially in France.
Phytolacca: For roughness and inflammation of the throat with dryness and soreness.
Phosphorus: For reddened face, dizzyness, weakness, migraine, sore throat with cough and a strong thirst followed by vomiting.
Pulsatilla: For thick, greenish yellow mucous, congestion and fever especially in the late evening and night.
Rumex: For throat irriation, inability to cough up mucous, pains in the centre of the lung which may be accompanied by rawness and burning.
Sabadilla. Sneezing is the great keynote of this remedy. Sneezing and lachrymation on going into the open air. The throat is swollen and the pain is worse on empty swallowing; the sneezing is excessive, shaking the whole body. Shudderings, with gooseflesh chills creeping upwards, are also prominent symptoms. Frontal headache, dryness of mouth, without thirst and cough, worse on lying down, are additional symptoms. It suits well many cases of the catarrhal form of flu; other remedies having sneezing are Cyclamen and E Sanguinaria nitrate is especially valuable when the trachea and larynx are affected. Phytolacca. Specific when the throat is inflamed and spotty, with great hardness and tenderness of the glands.
Spongia. For hoarseness with a feeling of burning or constriction in the throat, dry, frequent coughing, difficulty, and chest weakness.
Sticta pulmonaria. General confusion of ideas ; inability to concentrate them. Dull sensation in the head, with sharp, darting pains through the vertex, side of face, and lower jaw. Dull, heavy pressure in forehead, and root of nose. Catarrhal headache before the discharge sets in. Burning in eyelids, -with soreness of the ball in closing the lids or turning the eyes.
Sulphur: For long lasting or ongoing symptoms of a searing, hot origin with sweating.
Homeopathy Dosage Directions Select the remedy that most closely matches the symptoms. In conditions where self-treatment is appropriate, unless otherwise directed by a physician, a lower potency (6X, 6C, 12X, 12C, 30X, or 30C) should be used

Should kids be allow to go back to school after the swine flu nasal spray?
My daughter had her swine nasal spray few weeks ago. And today I was reminding the teacher not to give her swine flu shot at school. And one of the teacher ask me a question. Did the doctor tell my daughter not to come to school after the nasal spray? So I was wondering are the kids allow to go back to school after the swine flu nasal spray since the nasal spray is a live virus being spray into the nose.
Note: The teacher wasn’t complaining she was just curious. And so am I now. I tried to search in on-line about it but no where can be found. Maybe someone here may have some point of view. And my daughter was fine after the spray.
Note: Now my daughter’s doctor had called me just now letting me know that once the kids taken the nasal spray and the kids has no fever or illness within the same day of the spray they are allow to go back to school as normal.
I was worried about this too. I asked a lot of different Nurses and Docs. They all said it was okay to be around people after the nasal vaccine except people that have any of the conditions below;
For at least 21 days after receiving nasal influenza virus vaccine, avoid close contact with anyone who has a weak immune system caused by disease (such as cancer, HIV, or AIDS), or by certain medicines such as steroids, cancer chemotherapy, or radiation treatment. A person with a weak immune system can become ill if they have close contact with you after you have recently received a an influenza vaccine.
My whole family got the nasal vaccine last Friday. No problems. I got the shot. I did feel a bit of tummy ache later. Don’t know if this is connected or not. Good Question to ask though…

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?

Trout,
I think we should worry about false flag later and assume it is a real threat. I am far less concerned about being made a fool of than I am about my children being dead. Many of the people in my neighborhood and that attend my youngest son’s school travel frequently between here and Mexico. I will be keeping a close eye.
I would be very interested to know who the woman was on the other end of that phone call. Who was she talking to btw? I didn’t see that info posted.

The H1N1 virus, better known as swine flu, is expected to be a major threat this winter. We hear about this virus in the news and are aware of their existence, but most of us are not aware of their history or efficacy of vaccines that have been created to address this strain of flu. I chose to research information on the H1N1 virus to make a more educated decision on whether or not there should be vaccinated my daughter.
The presence of this virus was brought to our attention in the spring of 2009, when the Mexican government began to close most of the facilities public in Mexico City due to an outbreak. Obviously, because there was a case of swine flu spread there before we noticed. Spread United States and many other countries before June 2009. The swine flu dates back to 1918 when it was commonly referred to as the Spanish flu, although its origin was never detected. Five hundred million people were affected worldwide and 50 to 100 million people died as a result. The virus attacks people whose immune systems healthy and popular idea that children and the elderly would be the hardest hit was not the case. A healthy immune system would be self-defeating to try to the virus and, meanwhile, would overreact and actually have the opposite effect in the body.
A strain of H1N1 was responsible for a smaller outbreak in 1976, a Fort Dix soldier died shortly after complaining of not feeling well. This strain was controlled, but a new one was born just after extended very quickly. The vaccine was created to prevent a recurrence of the epidemic that took many lives in 1918. Vaccination helped the spread of the virus, but ended taking more lives than the virus itself. Many died as a result of adverse reactions to the vaccine and 532 people were diagnosed with Guillain-Barre syndrome as a direct result of drinking. This is an autoimmune disorder that results in nerve damage among many other debilitating health problems. Many people who need Guillain-Barré syndrome to undergo any form of dialysis that removes antibodies from the blood and the blood is replenished back to the body. It is possible to survive this condition health, but generally there is a long road to recovery may take several years.
There was a limited case of swine flu labeled Zoonoses was detected in 1988 when a pregnant woman in Wisconsin died after being in contact with infected pigs at a fair. There were some others who were in contact with it they were infected with a mild form of the virus. Most pigs were infected throughout the U.S. in 1998, and it was considered that the pigs had a common flu was transformed into a new strain, due to a combination of their own flu were merged with those of humans and birds. Most pigs were infected in the Philippines in 2007 as well. The H1N1 virus is a combination of spinning flu in four different ways, including two parts of human influenza, bird flu and swine flu hand side.
The 2009 H1N1 virus symptoms that are similar to the flu in his diary. Among others, sudden fever and cough, along with any of the other symptoms of the common cold, such as chills and body aches. Most people who catch the virus can treat it as you normally would with bed rest and fluids. People have a weakened immune system may experience complications such as pneumonia and respiratory failure. Those who are considered at greatest risk are persons under 5 years and 65 years of age. People who have recently undergone treatment for asthma by taking prescription drugs are also at risk. H1N1 can have an incubation period of up to seven days, although this has not been confirmed. You can buy the same way as the common cold through something as simple as a sneeze. One out of every 1,000 people died of swine flu that is comparable to the number of people who have died from flu. The best way to prevent disease is by routine washing and covering your mouth and nose with a tissue when sneezing or coughing and quickly have it.
How do we know if we have a common cold or flu swine? In most cases other doctors and patients usually do not try to differentiate the virus they have. They carried out a test if symptoms are severe with administration of a blood test or rubbing the back of the nose and throat. H1N1 is usually treated with Tamiflu or Relenza, when diagnosed. These are antiviral medications used to treat the symptoms until the virus runs its course. The fact that most people are not testing H1N1 virus is of concern.
The number of people who actually carry the virus must be known if all people infected with flu symptoms has not been tested. Although most people with this virus have a mild form of it, I think that the world Health and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention would like to know how many cases out there if infected people have severe symptoms or not. If this virus is more widespread than we think, perhaps it is possible that a further strain great for developing that we are not prepared. I wonder why this year recommended to be vaccinated to prevent this disease if there is not enough concern for doctors to test, even for him. The mortality rate is the same for the H1N1 virus as it is for the common cold and most of us have worked very well without a vaccine for that.
The H1N1 vaccine is not a cure for the virus as it is simply a preventive measure. Flu shots are on average 70-80% efficiency as information provided by Fox News. Keep in mind that if you administer this vaccine is injected with a form of virus that was grown in chicken eggs in a laboratory. The evidence for the safety of the product is only started earlier this month and is now considered safe. Now he is being "tested" in pregnant women and children. Are these pregnant women and parents of these children who are being "tested" ready to participate? It is possible for a person to develop immunity about 5 weeks after the vaccination process is complete, allowing you to be victims of the virus in the meantime.
This is because the fact that each person will need at least two rounds of the vaccine to be effective. It is said that there is only one part of the vaccine available in October, then more vaccines will be released each month thereafter. Is this a way to test the vaccine that was recently reconstructed from the same type of vaccine that was administered in 1976? This is not what worries me. They will also be throwing in additives that have never been tried for the second batch of vaccines. How long do they test in this batch, if not even been created yet?
Do I want to vaccinate my daughter? I think not, and I hope it does not become mandatory. I weighed the pros and cons to get their vaccine. Should I take extra precautions so that my daughter did not contract the virus that is virtually identical to the common flu? Keep safe from the flu does not seem as important as prevention of problems that can occur from taking the vaccine. The vaccine given in 1976, and cases of Guillain-Barre syndrome that resulted from it is worrying. I prefer that my child has a mild form of influenza that those who die because their immune system that attacks the nervous system in the future. The Neuroscientists have already been warned to keep eyes open for new cases of Guillain-Barre syndrome, when vaccination is released. It seems that the risks outweigh the benefits with this vaccine, but not easy for pharmaceutical companies to lower the chance of making a killing income.
