N1H1 scare, another United Nations Leftist hoax? The numbers say absolutely
By Kevin “Coach” Collins
Remember the dire predictions of 50, 000,000 worldwide swine flu deaths? One year later that prediction made by the World Health Organization (WHO) has been proved to be just another United Nations hoax like the melting Alps. It fell short by 49,985,858 deaths.
Now in hard Left “We know better than you” style, the WHO attacked as “irresponsible” those who have called its claim fraudulent.
WHO claimed everything pointed to a worldwide pandemic outbreak of N1H1 influenza and it denied allegations of being influenced to make this claim by powerful pharmaceutical companies. In October the AP found that 75% of Americans were worried about the virus.
There is ample evidence that Big Pharmaceuticals benefited from mega orders for vaccines and anti-viral medications. Nevertheless, the WHO itself says that each year “annual [ common influenza] epidemics result in about three to five million cases of severe illness, and about 250 000 to 500 000 deaths.” If we’re to believe these people at all we have to consider the possibility that this flu season was a one to celebrate in terms of the very low number of deaths.
Numbers that don’t wash
If the WHO had predicted 50 million deaths and there were 14.4 million, fairness dictates it be credited for saving lives with its warning.
If there were 1.4 million deaths you would have say, “You were a bit overboard but 1.4 million is still a lot of deaths from anything.”
If there were 140K deaths red spinning lights start to shine, but with just 14k deaths the only conclusion is that WHO is just another lying sack of dung UN operation that reminds us we should steer clear of the United Nations as best we can: They are socialists who lie to get what they want which is our money.
Crushing blow to the pork industry
A Canadian Economist has estimated that calling the N1H1 virus “swine flu” has done major damage to the pork products industry in North America. He estimates about $1.3billion have been lost because of the WHO and the media’s stupid use of dangerously inaccurate language.
The next time the United Nations tries to get America to do anything let your Congressional Representative know you want the proposal researched very carefully. Tell these people NOT to merely throw money at anything the UN has going because its track record is very poor. Most of what the UN wants to do has its roots in the fleecing of the West and especially America.
What did you do to defend American freedoms yesterday? What will you do today and what do you plan to do tomorrow?
