Is the bird flu vaccine like a regular flu shot?
The bird flu vaccine is a completely different vaccine than the standard flu shot. This bird flu vaccine will only protect against the bird flu and not any other strains of flu. There is not even a real bird flu vaccine available that we the public are able to get yet. It will be some time before we can get a bird flu vaccine. The only known bird flu vaccine is still in the experimental stages and they do not even know yet how effective it will be, it may not work at all. We hear about the bird flu every day and about how many people it is going to kill throughout the world but to keep things in perspective it is important that you realize that very few people have actually caught the bird flu and even fewer have actually died from it and this is all without the help of a bird flu vaccine. The main cases of those who have gotten this terrible bird flu are cases in which the people themselves were in contact with birds. Bird flu doe snot seem to be spreading from person to person at all so far so there is [...]
Bird Flu,Symptoms Of Bird Flu and Treatments
In other bird flu news The Times this week published an article relating a proposal from flu experts David Fedson, Peter Dunnill and Susan Chu that the use of common cholesterol-lowering medicines against flu be investigated. A highly persistent chemical, dioxin can take more than 15 years to degrade to half its original concentration. If released into the local water supplies—for example, ponds and rivers—it can accumulate in fish. Bird flu virus is highly serious, just like the Swine Flu H1N1 virus is. Commonly known as Avian Flu, it is transmitted by coming into contact with another person who has it, or else by going into an area where there has been an outbreak of this virus. The avian flu is a specific bird condition that affects all kind of birds but wild ones seem to be more resistant and carry the virus without showing any obvious signs. Poultry is most sensitive to the virus and develop the disease; mild cases evolve with respiratory symptoms, low egg production ruffled feathers. The official scientific name for the bird flu virus is H5N1. All flu viruses have an H number and an N number. The H refers to hemagglutinin, which is a [...]

Some interesting stuff I found out about the possibility of such a hybrid virus being created and released as a bioweapon.

Symptoms Of Bird Flu
Whether man is on the nature-conquering spree or the nature is on the spree of subduing the humanity? Who is the master and who’s whose servant? Technology or man? Can the push-button comforts provide relief to all your miseries? Have you conquered all the diseases, identified all the viruses so that you can ravel in a state of perfect health? Then why do you have these symptoms, which your doctor has identified as bird flu? You have been giving something to the dear birds, in the form of cruelty, since time immemorial. Now it is the turn of birds to repay you in the same coin, with compound interest! Air space is free for the birds and migration from one part of the globe to another part, is their birth right. They don’t require visa. The virus is found in the bird’s intestines. Even in the birds,the symptoms are not severe as such. Buy you see in poultry farms the way in which the birds are handled—they are packed closely together with chicken and turkeys—thus man helps the cause of rapid spread of the latest disease called bird flu—to give it a more trendy name, avian influenza! A general alert [...]
The Risk of the Bird Flu is Still Present Among Us
Public health authorities are alarmed by a strain of H5N1, also known as the virus of the bird flu, which has firs affected the birds across Asia and Russia. It also has infected more than 100 humans in the past 18 months, killing about half of them. Scientists fear that the virus could begin to spread between humans and so this will unleash a global pandemic. At the annual regional meeting of the World Health Organization in Auckland, New Zealand, among other top items presented, it is expected to be discussed the H5N1 strain of bird flu. The spokesman of WHO declared that even though the cold months in Asia might reduce the damage produced by the disease, the risk factors will remain the same. Richard Nesbit, the acting regional director for the Western Pacific of WHO sustained that the pandemic risk is still present because the virus is highly embedded in the environment. Besides the continuous outbreaks in poultry in Indonesia, now there have appeared new cases in Cambodia and Thailand too. By this moment all the cases when humans were taken ill appeared due to a close contact with infected poultry, but some special [...]
Answers About Bird Flu
We often hear about bird flu from the media. We know that it is a virus that usually affects birds. This virus is a complex one that it does not affect only birds but humans too. Asian countries are the most common areas where bird flu might develop. Also called avian influenza, bird flu is known to develop 15 subtypes of viruses. The most dangerous virus that proved to be a threat for both birds and humans is H5N1. The virus occurs in most of the cases among birds. Wild birds carry the virus in their intestines but usually do not get sick from it. At risk are the domesticated birds such as chickens, ducks or turkeys. After catching the virus these birds are, in most of the cases, going to die. There are known two forms of influenza viruses that are distinguished by low and high extremes of virulence. The low pathogenic form may go undetected and may cause mild symptoms but the highly pathogenic form spreads more rapidly and affects the internal organs of the birds. In more than 90 % of the cases the highly pathogenic form leads to death in less than 48 [...]
Cambodia: THE BIRD FLU “PANDEMIC” HOAX! (2of2) [EN&KH]
Terminator seeds Seeds that produce fruit that does not, in turn, produce seeds (such as “seedless” watermelons). These initial seeds have been patented by the mega-corporations, so the farmer must buy new seeds every year rather than being able to save seeds from his own harvest. In addition, the farmer can only purchase the seeds from the owners of the mega-corporations. This becomes so prohibitively expensive that the farmer goes bankrupt. Patented Genetically engineered food that can be withheld at will to promote famines. Weather control to make growing areas into dust bowls to engineer world-wide famines (Search the web under Weather Control.) Destruction of the food supply of the world by killing off the turkeys, ducks and other birds used for food (because of the irrational fear of Bird Flu) in addition to the destruction of cows (because of the REAL threat of Mad Cow Disease which they are presently down-playing), and sheep (because of the REAL threat of Scrapie which is Mad Sheep Disease). This is one of the ways they will bring about massive famines that will starve to death millions of people. Man-made Diseases, (such as AIDS) bioengineered in government and military laboratories to cause super-infectious [...]
Who is Most Vulnerable to Bird Flu
Right now, the people must vulnerable to bird flu are those who come into close and frequent contact with infected chickens and other poultry. Therefore, the main danger is to rural farmers and chicken sellers in Asia and Africa. Anybody who slaughters chickens, plucks their feathers, eviscerates and cooks chickens. Anybody who sells their raw meat in a market. Anybody who attends a cockfighting match, because fighting cocks spray blood into the air. Their children seem to be most at risk. That’s probably because they play and pet the chickens that run wild in their villages, they play in the dirt that’s infected with chicken droppings and they have undeveloped immune systems. Anybody who eats raw or undercooked chicken or eggs from infected chickens is at risk. That is why Vietnam is discouraging its people from preparing a traditional dish of raw duck blood soup. Right now, this applies to people in rural Asia, Africa and Europe. When H5N1 spreads to North and South America, it could apply also to small farmers who raise chickens the traditional way. Modern chicken factory farming protects chickens from contact with wild fowl and other outside birds, so they’re unlikely to catch bird flu [...]
