Un grup de ucrainience vor să demonstreze că virusul gripei porcine poate fi tratat foarte bine prin sex ! Atenţia sporită acordată gripei porcine de către media a stârnit reacţii diverse în ţările afectate de pandemie. Astfel, în timp ce italienii sunt foarte panicaţi şi marea lor majoritate apelează la serviciile medicilor la primele simptome ale gripei, alte popoare consideră că virusul H1N1 nu este atât de periculos precum se spune. În acest sens, un grup de feministe din Ucraina a decis să protesteze împotriva propagandei alarmante pe care mass media şi guvernele le o promovează printre cetăţeni. Astfel, câteva membre ale grupului Femen au defilat aproape dezbrăcate la temperaturi foarte scăzute prin Piaţa Independenţei din Kiev, fiind îmbrăcate doar cu lenjerie intimă construită din măşti medicinale.

Schweinegrippe im Gegensatz zu normaler Grippe Es ist einfach unglaublich wie die Schweinegrippe hochgespielt wird.Man sollte glauben,daß die Pharmaindustrie am Hungertuche nagt und endlich mal wieder Geld in die Kassen spülen will. Warum wird eigentlich die normale Grippe- Impfung nicht genauso stark propagiert,wo doch bisher wesentlich mehr Menschen an der normalen Grippe (Influenza) gestorben sind, als an der Schweinegrippe. Hier ein Auszug aus einem Artikel, der auf der Internetseite von 3sat erschienen ist, wobei es um die Monate Januar-April 2009 geht: "Die ungewöhnlich starke Grippewelle des vergangenen Winters hat in Deutschland rund 16.000 Menschen das Leben gekostet. Damit lag die Zahl weit über dem Durch- schnitt von 5000 bis 8000 Grippetoten pro Jahr, teilte das Robert Koch-Institut (RKI) in Berlin mit."

The U.S. government is rushing to deliver H1N1 swine flu vaccine to states on or around Oct. 15. Vaccination likely will take two shots given three weeks apart. No protection is expected until two to four weeks after the second shot - around Thanksgiving for those who start vaccination in mid-October. You are on the front line of this fall's flu fight then. It's going to be up to you to try not to catch the flu. And if you do catch the flu, it's going to be up to you to try not to infect anyone else. It is essential for people to make plans, because U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) will not have a vaccine available for a few months. The first part of the plan is to avoid infection: * Wash your hands frequently and thoroughly. Use soap and warm water when available; use hand sanitizer between hand washings. * Avoid close contact with sick people. Close contact means getting within 6 feet of a sick person.

Researchers launched trials to test H1N1 vaccine in the HIV-infected pregnant women. The H1N1 vaccine by Novartis Vaccines and Diagnostics, contains attenuated 2009 H1N1 influenza strain virus. The trial is initially poised to test in 130 HIV-infected pregnant women (in the age group of 18 to 39); all in their second or third trimester (14 to 34 weeks) periods of pregnancy. According to Dr. Anthony S. Fauci, Director of National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases(NIAID), both HIV and pregnancy create poor immune response condition and so the studies assume importance. The study involves taking blood samples from the pregnant women who are given the H1N1 dose, immediately after the dose and then 3 and 6 months after the vaccine. The samples will be studied for amount of antibodies that the recipient produced against the H1N1 influenza virus. Once the woman delivers baby, the umbilical cord blood sample will be studied for... details >>>

The vaccine for the H1N1 influenza, better known as swine flu, is expected to be available in Pitkin County by mid-October, health officials told the county commissioners Tuesday. Members of the Pitkin County Board of Public Health stressed that all people older than six months of age should get vaccinated for both H1N1 and seasonal varieties of flu. It's important for people to take personal responsibility to minimize the spread of viruses, said Dr. Morris Cohen, a member of the county health board. “They all need to be immunized. That's the first thing,” he said. There was a surge last week in the number of students reporting illnesses with flu-like symptoms, according to Public Health Director Liz Stark. One case was confirmed to be H1N1. “So we've got it in our community,” she said. Overall, 96 students were ill with flu-like symptoms, Cohen said. More than 99 percent of the flu in circulation at this time is H1N1, he said. So chances... details >>>
