In June of this year, this spectacular article came and went with barely a mention ’round the Internet. Richard Gale and Gary Null wrote a very important piece, “The CDC Votes in Favor of a Flu Vaccination Assault on Americans’ Health.” Early in the article, the authors make the statement that, “Nevertheless, we should still brace ourselves for another year of old yarn, fear-mongering, media spin and more voodoo science.” Indeed, though the WHO just recently declared the swine flu (non)pandemic to be over, the scaremongering is already ramping up regarding the seasonal flu. Note this laughable paragraph from a recent article in the Swine Flu Journal:

Federal health officials are gearing up to persuade more Americans to get vaccinated against the flu this fall, in the aftermath of last year’s pandemic that killed thousands nationwide, sickened millions, and frustrated many before petering out.

First off, “millions” weren’t sickened, and, what is the definition of “frustrated many?” The pandemic that wasn’t a pandemic ….. “frustrated many?” What does that really mean? Definition, please?

Compare the above statement with the fact that the CDC predicted up to 90,000 swine flu deaths in the U.S., with 2 million getting infected; the WHO was warning that 7+ million people could and might die; and the final tally was 12,000 deaths in the U.S. (rounded up), and 500 in the UK after UK propagandists predicted 65,000 deaths. And add to that the fact that the numbers reported in the U.S. were not verified scientifically – the CDC just made up numbers. The CDC and medical establishment that declared the pandemic a worldwide emergency intentionally avoided monitoring and tracking swine flu cases and the spread of the infection. As Gale and Null point out, the CDC also does not distinguish between deaths from flu and pneumonia, another intentional spin of the death numbers.

The article also discusses a “recent unanimous 11-0 vote by the members of the Centers for Disease Control’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) favoring every American over the age of six months receive the flu influenza vaccine.” This is a change from past recommendations, where only people who were deemed to be in “at risk” categories were included in the “must have vaccination” category. Indeed, the “at risk” categories were arbitrary, pseudo-science declarations made on behalf of establishment bureaucrats who were working in the best interests of the powerful government-medical-pharmaceutical complex. However, understand that the reason behind the creeping recommendations is that totalitarianism must take on a gradualist form in order to be inconspicuous to the hoodwinked members of the masses. All-at-once declarations are more transparent and immediately give rise to suspicions, questions, and resistance, whereas piecemeal oppression is less evident and has a “lighter” touch. Stealth socialism promotes gradualism and deception over outright insurgence and power grabs at breakneck speed. In fact, those “at risk” categories for flu vaccinations, as with everything else, gradually grew to include more potential at-risk individuals whose inclusion would serve to generate bigger profits for powerful corporate state interests.

Additionally, Gale and Null write this:

So far the CDC has weathered the WHO controversy in Europe unscathed. A fundamental oversight in the CE’s investigation and hearings has been solely targeting the WHO. It ignores the role of government health agencies’ complicity in promulgating the H1N1 hoax and the flushing away of billions of dollars into the drug industry, especially during an economic downturn and recession. As we witness the WHO’s indifference and denial of wrongdoing crumble, the question remains over whether or not the CDC was complicit in the propagandizing of the astronomically expensive H1N1 hoax.

…In the shadow of this medical charade, the drug makers are laughing their way to the banks. No Big Pharma executive is sitting before investigative committees to give an accounting of corporations’ role in the pandemic debacle. Instead, after scoring over $6 billion (Associated Press, May 19, 2010 ) it is again business as usual and another flu season ahead to further increase revenue.

The pharmaceutical industry places reliance on long-term planning in order to predict the direction and scope of its research and development. Predictability reduces uncertainty, and nothing is more comforting to corporate executives than being able to foresee, ahead of time, a fairly accurate representation of its potential patrons.

Big Pharma, as a whole, follows a systematic progression in its quest for securing a greater number of customers for its products. Essentially, there are three types of “customers” for Big Pharma’s legal dope:

1)   Sick people, most of whom do not need pharmaceuticals – with exceptions, of course – because they can cure what ails them through food choices and lifestyle modification.

2)   Healthy people who must be convinced, through the use of propaganda, that they have some ailment – restless leg syndrome, high cholesterol, a genetic predisposition for breast cancer, etc. – that needs medical intervention and a pharmaceutical silver bullet(s).

3)   Healthy people who are heavily propagandized into believing that every potential ailment or disease is a) a possible/likely event, and b) is preventable through aggressive drug treatment.

Out of the three, the last choice has the greatest potential because:

a) Propaganda is most useful in this instance because people generally place a heavy reliance on their doctors and the medical establishment as a whole to understand exactly what their issues and risks are, and they tend to follow orders accordingly.

b) Preventative drugs, like vaccines, can be and have been mandated via coercive political policy that all but guarantees profits, subsidies, and/or the continuance of similar policies in the future.

c) Due to (b) above, there becomes a better understanding of the potential customer base, and therefore revenue streams and profitability can be predictable, serving to alleviate uncertainty.

In closing, the Medical Establishment Journal (ahem, Wall Street Journal) just published a story that revealed prescription drug use (caveat: based on government stats) that revealed an alarming rate of prescription drug usage. Among the findings:

The type of drugs used most often were asthma meds for kids, central nervous system stimulants (such as those used to treat ADHD) for teens, antidepressants for the middle-aged and cholesterol-lowering drugs for older people.

Depending on whose studies you believe, both pharmaceuticals and the medical system are listed as being among the leading causes of death in the U.S. On that note, how many die annually from the use of marijuana?

“The 1976 vaccination is regarded through the lens of history as a big disaster. We vaccinated 45 million people for what was perceived to be no gain,” McCullers said.

“This comes full circle now and maybe vindicates the idea that some good did come of it.”

There’s never an end to the bullshit and lies. The cover-up for the non-swine flu pandemic is relentless in its pursuit of an ways to exploit hapless, uneducated Americans. Thanks to Matt Toennies for the link.

The Washington Post reported that an estimated 71.5 million doses of H1N1 vaccine may have to be discarded if not used before expiry, costing millions in taxpayer dollars.

The CDC estimates that only one-fifth of American adults were vaccinated for H1N1. And you can be sure that is a high estimate. Here’s something from the article that I made a point of stressing back when this swine flu scheme was being launched:

It was not uncommon to discard seasonal flu vaccine every year, she said, and the only difference with the H1N1 vaccine was that the federal government had bought the supplies.

Thanks to Big Pharma’s agents, who are scattered throughout the governmental-pharmaceutical complex, there were no lost profits for Big Pharma. Here’s my blog from January that explores the government’s attempt to re-launch the swine flu propaganda. Since that time, the Swine Flu Journal, the Swine Flu Times, and the Swine Flu Post appear to be backing off from the scaremongering that just wasn’t working.

If you are really unwilling to let go of the H1N1 panic, you can go to the CDC’s website and send a free propaganda e-card to someone you love, convincing them to get the government’s shot. Or you can sign up for the CDC’s “emergency” text messages or mobile website. You just can’t make this stuff up.

Global health officials’ response to the swine-flu pandemic reflects major improvements in flu-fighting capabilities in recent years, but limited vaccine supplies, crowded emergency rooms, and other challenges show they still aren’t fully equipped to combat a deadlier scourge, the World Health Organization’s chief said.

While a second wave of infections caused by the H1N1 virus has ebbed in North America and Western Europe, transmission of flu remains intense in Central and Eastern Europe and parts of southern Asia, and health authorities must monitor its spread for another year or more, WHO Director-General Margaret Chan said in an interview this week.

“It is premature to say the pandemic has peaked world-wide,” she said. “The situation needs to be watched and monitored at least another six to 12 months.” The virus could still mutate to become more severe, she warned.

State bureaucrats ’round the world, and especially in the US, can’t stand it. They are absolutely disappointed that their perfidious pandemic was a bust, a flop, and a non-pandemic. Of course, there are no limited vaccine supplies or overwhelmed emergency rooms – that was a liar’s cacophony for the purpose of using the swine flu epidemic as a control mechanism.

What I am seeing from the press, now, is a bunch of inept fear mongering about a “third wave” of the swine flu – and this comes at a point when the general public long ago lost interest in the so-called “second wave.” The CBS Connecticut website ran a “third wave” bulletin that says since a third wave is “possible,” people should still be vaccinated. Federal despots, unwilling to be left out of either wave and the ensuing propaganda fever, have chimed in with the CDC’s warning of a third wave in January. The story states, “The CDC reports fewer people getting sick. That may not be the case come January.” Remind me of what happened to the “second wave,” or even the first?

I am amused each time I go into a Walgreens, or drive by a CVS, health clinic, doctor’s office, or urgent care center. They all have signs in the windows, on the doors, and outside in front of their buildings: “H1N1 – get your shots here.” No one wants the vaccination so they have to push it and advertise it. Next thing you know they’ll be doing “buy one get one free” H1N1 shots. In fact, many places are giving away free vaccines. Isn’t this the same vaccination for which the US government declared – over and over and over – there would be an extreme shortage, and we must all hurry and get it if such a “blessed” opportunity appears on the horizon? Again and again, Americans were propagandized and being conditioned to believe that there was an undisputed, full-scale, worldwide health emergency that would soon mushroom into an uncontrollable killer flu, and our chances of being victims of some hideous health horror were far higher than tripping and stubbing your toe.

Government, along with its obedient media arm, perpetually warned Americans of massive deaths, overrun hospitals, a shortage of lung machines, and the lack of available medical personnel to handle the massive overrun of resources that would be the result of a ginormous swine flu outbreak. Every day, every hour, the Swine Flu Journal, the Swine Flu Times, the Swine Flu Post, and all of those other organs of fear mongering and swine journalism, kept us up to date with play-by-plays of the expected date of H1N1 vaccination arrivals, the current shortage, and the expected time frames to relieve the shortage. And the media was never short on advice about what to do if you couldn’t manage to find an available swine flu vaccination for yourself. Zillions of dollars were put into the pockets of the large and powerful Big Pharma interests who lobbied to sell the swine flu as a killer affliction and paid off scores of politicians and health bureaucrats to have it declared a pandemic. The US government spent at least $2 billion dollars on vaccinations for Americans so that every single American could suck up Big Pharma’s moneymaking unhealthy juice.

So what is the result of the government’s Big Plan going kaput? The fizzle and flop was similar to the one that occurred, recently, in a Nigerian’s underwear somewhere over Detroit. The whole thing fell flat on its face because the totalitarian government of Washington D.C. overplayed the drama and fear, and like a broken record, their overreaching orders, advice, and dictates began to sound more and more like vaudeville one-liners.

And repeatedly, the little people that couldn’t – that is, the true-blue followers, the government faithful, the non-thinking pliant beings – insisted that I was crazy for exposing this all as a crock from the beginning.

Remember that The President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology released a report on August 7th stating that the swine flu”epidemic” could cause up to 90,000 deaths. As stated in the report, that is after “initial concerns of an extremely high fatality rate have receded.”

Jordan McFarland, a high school athlete from Alexandria, Va., left Inova Fairfax Hospital for Children Tuesday night in a wheelchair nearly a week after developing severe headaches, muscle spasms and weakness in his legs following a swine flu shot. He will likely need the assistance of a walker for four to six weeks, plus extensive physical therapy.

“The doctor said I’ll recover fully, but it’s going to take some time,” the teenager said.

Dr. Claudia J. Vellozzi, deputy director for immunization safety at the CDC, said “there’s no clear link between the new vaccine and the disease.” She states that these GBS cases are “events” that just “happen” after the vaccination. They are just coincidence. Doctors at the hospital refuse to talk about GBS in connection with the vaccines, and accordingly, they are giving the press very limited information.

Meanwhile, ScienceNews has published a piece that attempts to debunk the notion of side effects (GBS, miscarriage, MS, Bell’s Palsy, seizures, etc.) by pointing to statistics that show ‘it would have happened regardless.’

If policymakers, physicians and the public don’t understand the magnitude of background rates for diseases and health impacts, they risk inappropriately attributing certain adverse events to vaccines.

Then why do we have George Bush’s gift to Big Pharma – the 2006 Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness Act? This is the law that “allows the DHHS Secretary to invoke almost complete immunity from liability for manufacturers of vaccines and drugs used to combat a declared public health emergency.” How convenient it is.

A severe outbreak of the H1N1 pandemic could overwhelm internet providers’ capacity, according to a report submitted Monday, which called on Department of Homeland Security officials to develop contingency plans to avert such a crisis.

“Concerns exist that a more severe pandemic outbreak than 2009′s could cause large numbers of people staying home to increase their internet use and overwhelm internet providers’ network capacities,” according to the report, which was prepared by the US Government Accountability Office.

More people staying home = more people on the Internet = bandwidth overrunith. In order to mitigate this “threat,” the DHS should consider rationing bandwidth or blocking websites, according to the GAO report. Well, wait a second. I thought that so many people were going to be ill and dying that hospital emergency rooms were going to be overrun? Just so you know that I am not mixing up satire with reality … for your reading pleasure, here is the GAO report. It is 77 pages long, so no, these guys aren’t kidding.
