Swine Flu:
Some Questions which need answer

  1. Why was the WHO in such a great hurry to raise this to pandemic level?

  2. Multiple drug resistant tuberculosis has been spreading to all countries could kill millions if left unchecked reminding us of the great white death epidemic.  Why is that not a pandemic?

  3. Where is the controlled study to show the effect of Tamiflu against the new Swine Flu virus, in our medical system?

  4. Has the new vaccine been tested against the virus in a large study?  How are we certain that it will be effective?  Is this vaccine safe to give to all age groups, especially when we are ignorant of its true validity?

  5. What happened to the millions of dollars worth of Tamiflu stockpiled for the imaginary   pandemic of bird Flu?

  6. Will the linear projection of large deaths due to the imaginary dread of the new virus materialize? Do the nonlinear universe and the human body follow the linear laws?

  7. If this whole fear mongering fails to materialize who do we hold accountable at the end of the day?

  8. Do we not know that fear, especially of millions in the world, might weaken their immune system?

  9. Does the host resistance play any role in the final outcome of the fight between the virus and man?  Why are we not doing something to build good resistance against the virus?

  10. Why do we not accept similar untested, but inexpensive, remedies available in many other systems like the Chinese, Indian Ayurvedic and homeopathic systems?  Russian scientists have demonstrated viral (and other germs) destruction using particular frequency of subtle energy non-invasively! Our positive sciences understand only 5% of the total energy in this universe while the large 95% needs to be explored for common good.  Why are all those efforts classified as pseudo science?

  11. Let not our untested expensive interventions be worse than the patient’s disease.
