I've discussed this subject endlessly over on YouTube for days now. A lot of us feel that the media is making a whole lot of fuss about nothing just to entice people to get the vaccine (whether for money or to do people harm (these vaccines usually seem to do more harm than good.)
Strange facts about this case:
-It is being treated as a pandemic, but it is not (TheFreeDictionary.com's medical definition for
pandemic is:
"(a) Epidemic over a wide geographic area and affecting a large proportion of the population." Too few people have it for this to be anything near a pandemic right now.
-Of the few people who seem to get it, most of them are tourists. In this way, by amazing coincidence, it has managed to spread to several countries. This is also why they say that this influenza attacks people from the age category of 20-40, because that is the average tourist age group! Very suspicious isn't it?
-Border patrol officers in the US have been ordered not to wear protection masks, even though several of them are demanding it (supposedly this is to keep up appearances, but if this is supposed to be a breaking pandemic...weird indeed.)

- In the U.S., an estimated 25–50 million cases of the flu are currently reported each year — leading to 150,000 hospitalizations and 30,000–40,000 deaths yearly. If these figures were to be estimated incorporating the rest of the world, there would be an average of approximately 1 billion cases of flu, around 3–5 million cases of severe illness, and 300,000–500,000 deaths annually.
Source: http://www.flufacts.com/impact/statistics.aspx-The only justification for all this over-reacting is the singular point that as it is a swine flu, which is rare, it is "more unpredictable." Well, so is any virus. Or anything, for that matter! So the establishment's argument for all this panicking, work and expense is because it is "more unpredictable." There is nothing to indicate that this may become a pandemic, so why is it being treated as one?
-A weird fact is how the medical establishment has been preparing for years for a "pandemic", and this has been kept pretty well under wraps from the public's attention. For years now! How could they see so far ahead? I knew about this from an ex-landlord of mine who used to work in the hospital, but here's one source:

Most of the benefit of a pill, whether for a headache or for something more serious like asthma, is due to how you believe in the medication. Two pills may have the same ingredients, but if you believe that Pill A will work better whether because of a TV commercial or from what you've heard from friends and family, that one will likely work better for you. That is the power of the mind over body (of course they are connected.) So, since this flu is being all "hyped up" to be a "deadly killer", couldn't that only worsen its impact? I do not know whether or not this is the intention of the media, but this is the negative effect of what they are doing.
