Odd how the President mentions a revamping of health care and
BANG
a flu scare happens.

Health care workers won't be losing their jobs.

My thoughts exactly, Diko. For anyone not familiar with this little fact, just do a search on "baxter live avian flu vaccine". This article sounds more like a marketing piece written by/for Baxter than an objective news story. Considering Baxter's history and the cases of Guillain-Barré Syndrome associated with the 1976 swine flu vaccination program, I'd think long and hard before choosing to be vaccinated, especially if Baxter is the manufacturer of the vaccine.

And lets not mention the HIV contaminated Baxter Bayer products. That would really mess the vibe of the article up.

Great, but until they get that we better be prepared! I just got myself a Breath of Life Emergency Escape Mask. It's manufactured by a company called Technon and their mask is a pocket size solution that filters everything - including this virus. Their website is www.ProactiveAndPrepared.com

For anyone who doubts that a Baxter subsidiary was recently caught releasing a live viral strain:

Why has this barely been mentioned in the U.S. press, apart from the Bloomberg report? Why did the Tribune story not mention it?

Good job guys... send this article to Alex or aaron. I already emailed but I haven't seen any articles posted on the infowars site yet. I must say the informed comments are encouraging that people are waking up. Again, good job.

I would suggest Nancy that before you label people as "paranoid" you should follow some of the links posted in the comments which show there is good reason to be skeptical about the intentions of this company. They have already been caught putting bird flu in vaccines. Medical researchers have said there is no way they accidentally could have been put in there. But don't believe me, do your own research.

Reading the naysayer comments I guess I am supposed to believe that Baxter a $30,000,000,000 company in business longer than any of the naysayers have walked on this planet has earned their 30-billion through corrupt business practices.
If they come up with the Swin Flu vacination I will be first in line to receive mine and like it or not y'all will pay for it.

Deerfield, Illinois-based pharmaceutical company Baxter International Inc. has just been caught shipping live avian flu viruses mixed with vaccine material to medical distributors in 18 countries. The “mistake”(if you can call it that, see below…) was discovered by the National Microbiology Laboratory in Canada. The World Health Organization was alerted and panic spread throughout the vaccine community as health experts asked the obvious question: How could this have happened?

A little research will show that this isn't all that bazarre. There are many articles on how Baxter "accidently" mixed the avian flu virus into vaccines and shipped them to 18 different companies. This being a FACT.. why have they been chosen to come up with a vaccine?

Do a little bit of internet research about Baxter and this lab created "Super Flu" outbreak.

BAXTER CREATED THIS FLU!

I figured this out on my own yesterday studying these 3 types of flu that have been melded together. Why is the media not on top of his?

Jeepers Baxter, thanks for devoloping a vaccine for us...
