First US Swine Flu Death?

I like how the media hyped this one up. 

I never trust first reports.

And I find I’m taking this whole “pandemic” a little … annoying … to be frank.

For the record – the first human being to die on U.S. Soil due to the Swine Flu – was NOT an American. This in no way negates the loss of this child to his family – but it is being hyped up as the “first US death” and he was not a United States Citizen. He was a Mexican who brought Swine Flu to the US. He did not die because he caught it IN Texas – he was already carrying it when he got TO Texas. Which makes me think it’s maybe time to close the borders for a while. It’s very obvious that Swine Flu is coming FROM Mexico – so WHY are the borders STILL open and our schools – full of healthy Americans – closed? 

It’s … stupid…. if you ask me. 

It’s swine flu – but it’s still just flu. And it’s nothing new really. The same treatments you’ve used before to care for yourself are important still – and nothing new has been developed. Wash your hands. Cover your mouth when you cough. Stay home if you are sick. Get tested as soon as you suspect flu. Start Tamiflu IMMEDIATELY. Take Sambucol. Pump up your intake of garlic and vitamin C. Drink PLENTY of fluids. Rest. Rest. and Rest. 

So far 1 Mexican child has died on U.S. soil due to swine flu that he contracted in Mexico. He brought the infection with him to the US because our borders aren’t closed. He brought the infection with him to the hospital where he died. I’m sorry for his family’s loss. I hope no one else gets sick because this family brought swine flu into the United States. 

Furthermore – there has been 1 pediatric death (nationality aside) from swine flu this week. There was also ANOTHER pediatric death from the “regular” flu this week as well. Why didn’t Obama offer his condolences to that family?  They were probably even American. I’m not being racist here – I’m being patriotic. If the first US death from swine flu was a Canadian, I’d have as much to say about it as well. 

Did you know that SO FAR THIS YEAR – per the CDC’s own website – there have been FIFTY-FIVE pediatric deaths due to influenza? Per their reporting system:  http://www.cdc.gov/flu/weekly/

So 1 pediatric death is due to swine flu – and 54 are due to regular flu. Looks like regular flu is a little more scary that swine flu, if you ask for my uneducated opinion.

Call me cynical but I can just already see where this whole “Pandemic” is heading:  forced flu vaccinations. The government will rush to get a Swine Flu Vaccine ready. They will force us to vaccinate against our own moral/medical judgements. More people will possibly die from the vaccine than from taking their chances with catching/treating swine flu. Just like in 1976. Or – take it from someone even MORE cynical than me…. I read THIS ARTICLE and had to shake my head – because THIS is EXACTLY what I thought when I read that the government was pushing to get a vaccine against swine flu “market ready asap” – I thought…Great!  We’ll just inject the entire population with swine flu… couldn’t that just exacerbate the problem? I was already thinking that the Swine Flu would become a man made epidemic because the government will refuse to close the borders and demand that everyone get vaccinated. And in the case of a pandemic – the government CAN force vaccinations.

You, who are unable to think outside of the box and who believe everything the government says, might say- to the article below – HOGWASH!  Maybe even “Irresponsible Ramblings!”  But – first, I say, read the articles below and THEN read the news with a new set of eyeglasses – and see where your own independent mind can take you.

Dr. McBean has written HER expose about it HERE.

If you’ve read The Plague by Albert Camus – you can imagine how much worse it could get before it gets better. We don’t need to go that far in the U.S. We need to stop travel to/from Mexico, isolate swine flu cases as they emerge, quarantine whoever needs to be quarantined, and let this “pandemic” ride itself out. 

But with power moguls like Obama in office – they will milk every Mexican death they can (esp. if it happens on US soil) and begin to lay the groundwork for government forced vaccinations. 

Or maybe I’m just feeling a little EXTREME right now. You never know how it will really play itself out. We could all get sick and die. Who knows.
