Sharyl Attkisson is a CBS News correspondent and investigative reporter and she did an investigation on this "deadly flu epidemic". The CDC would not give her the documents she was requesting pertaining to the swine flu so she had to file through the Freedom of Info. Act to obtain some info and she had to go directly to each state to get around the CDC, who was trying to stonewall her.
Turns out that the vast majority of cases said to be the swine flu are not the flu at all but some other respiratory illness with flu like symptoms! It turns out that 99.9% of the people are not having any serious complications from H1N1,the CDC doesn't want us to know this....People are still not realizing that the mortality statistics for H1N1 are being deceptively reported and are NOT accurate – the vast majority of those who died did most likely not even have the H1N1 virus, but rather succumbed from other viral or bacterial causes and complications.This is just one statement from her three month investigation......
....when you come down with chills, fever, cough, runny nose, malaise and all those other "flu-like" symptoms, the illness is likely caused by influenza at most 17 percent of the time and as little as 3 percent! The other 83 to 97 percent of the time it's caused by other viruses or bacteria.So remember that not every illness that appears to be the flu actually is the flu. In fact, most of the time it's not.
Of those presumed likely swine flu cases out of approximately every hundred of what was tested, only a small fraction were actually swine flu. In every instance, perhaps the biggest number of cases that were swine flu was something like 30%. The smallest number was something like 2% or 3%.
Maybe there’s one state where it was just 1%.
The point is, of the vast majority of the presumed swine flu cases recognized by trained physicians, the vast majority were not flu at all. They weren’t swine flu or regular flu; they were some other sort of upper respiratory infection.”
And here is the clincher that it seems the CDC just doesn’t want the American public to know …
“The CDC explained that one of the reasons they quit counting was because of all the flu that’s out there, most are swine flu. Well, that’s true. Most of the flu that was out there was indeed swine flu, but they failed to say that most of the suspected flu was nothing at all. And I think that’s the caveat the public just didn’t know,” Attkisson explains.
She gives even more striking examples of the numbers the investigative report revealed. For instance:
* In Florida, 83 percent of specimens that were presumed to be swine flu were negative for all flu when tested!
* In California, 86 percent of suspected H1N1 specimens were not swine flu or any flu; only 2 percent were confirmed swine flu.
* In Alaska, 93 percent of suspected swine flu specimens were negative for all flu types; only 1 percent was H1N1 flu.
Why is the CDC still pushing the vaccine when the study by Purdue found that the swine flu has peaked in October! Also from the article.....
....But I wanted to share one final detail, and that is a new study just released by Purdue University researchers and published in the journal Eurosurveillance.
The researchers found that at this point in time any vaccinations that are given in the United States will likely have little effect on the number of infections. The researchers state:
"The model predicts that there will be a significant wave in autumn, with 63% of the population being infected, and that this wave will peak so early that the planned CDC vaccination campaign will likely not have a large effect on the total number of people ultimately infected by the pandemic H1N1 influenza virus."
In other words, infections are predicted to peak in late October (now) and by the end of the year it's estimated that 63 percent of the U.S. population will have been infected with H1N1 swine flu.
What does this mean? By the end of the year the majority of the U.S. population will have likely acquired natural immunity.
Natural immunity is what you gain when you recover from influenza and natural immunity is what is protecting older Americans, who have recovered from exposure to H1N1 strains of influenza in the past and are therefore less susceptible today.
