Swine Flu Drug Side Effects
May 22, 2009 The Swine Flu scare, which I fell for, reminds me of the Avian Flu scare back in 2006. Then the Congress was goaded into passing $7.1 billion dollars in order to prepare for the possible bird flu pandemic. The projected figure of 200,000 Americans dying hyped up the hysteria. One billion dollars of that money was spent on Tamiflu and its distribution. That doomsday never transpired. And now the World Health Organization wants to “save” billions of people by spending billions of American hard-earned tax dollars to develope a vaccine that they admit is a mystery to science, and also for Tamiflu
Back in 2006, Dr. Joseph Mercola warned that the drug Tamiflu was worthless, and does not treat the avian flu. It can “possibly” decrease the amount of days that one is sick, but worse, it can actually contribute to the virus having more lethal mutations. Tamiflu is banned in Japan because it can actually kill people. Even the FDA, after a review of 600 cases of neuropsychiatric events reported by patients on Tamiflu, and 115 cases of neuropsychiatric events reported by patients on Relenza a drug in the same class as Tamiflu. has said that the Tamiflu label should include a warning about these behaviors. In some cases these behaviors have resulted in serious injuries in adult and pediatric patients including death. “The FDA staff said Relenza, a drug in the same class as Tamiflu, should have a warning label of “reports of hallucinations, delirium, and abnormal behavior” observed in some patients taking the drug. We all know how much politicians love Big Pharma. Need I say more?
