As a result of all this, when this next flu pandemic strikes � and the WHO believes it could be just around the corner � vaccines will be in short supply and the majority of people simply won't have access to them. With that scenario, what can you do to stop the spread of influenza before it infects half the population of the world? That's not an exaggeration, by the way. Klaus Stohr, head of the WHO's influenza program, now says that a pandemic virus could infect half the population of Europe in just three to ten weeks as it gets passed from one person to another. Only radical efforts to halt international travel and local transmission of the disease would prevent widespread death, and that is exactly what the WHO is planning to do.
WHO's strategy also includes closing schools, since schools are obviously another place where disease can spread quite easily. This brings up another question: What about hospitals? Hospitals are perfect for the spread of infectious diseases. They have re-circulated air, they are enclosed spaces and they typically house people who have compromised immune systems and are more susceptible to the disease. Furthermore, hospital staffs are not very good at washing their hands to prevent the transmission of infectious disease. That has been proven by numerous studies in recent years. So what do you do about hospitals? Well, you can't close them, because that's where people are going to go when they get the flu, even though it won't do them much good, since hospitals can only treat their symptoms and attempt to use late-stage antiviral drugs with less-than-ideal success rates.
In effect, hospitals become death traps during any pandemic. If you read about the pandemic of 1918, you'll find that hospitals were, in fact, playing such a role, as unfortunate as that may sound. During the 1918 pandemic, bodies were sometimes stacked six feet high on the floors of hospitals, schools and all other available buildings. There was such a massive inflow of patients that each patient received little or no care; hospitals were just places where people went to die. The only surviving patients overcame the flu thanks to the strength of their own immune systems.
However, even that solution prompts a question: How do you actually stop people from entering the country? We can't even do it today. Nearly 4,000 illegal immigrants cross the border from Mexico into the United States every 24 hours. If that many people enter the country in the midst of a global flu pandemic, chances are that at least one or two of them will be infected with the flu. It only takes one or two, since it will then spread from one person to the next in families and communities. It will be spread by people driving vehicles from one town to another. Soon, the whole country will be infected, even though our borders have been officially shut down.
I think we no longer live in a world capable of being isolated. I think we live in an interconnected world instead. If the bird flu virus gets out of control in Hong Kong or China, it's going to become a global pandemic very quickly. In fact, I think it's a minor miracle that SARS did not become a global pandemic a few years ago. Once again, the WHO, the CDC and infectious disease experts deserve tremendous credit for identifying SARS and stopping its spread using what might only be called rather radical procedures or safeguards. Whether or not they will be able to catch the H5N1 influenza virus in time to stop the spread of that monster is entirely unknown. Remember: This isn't in the hands of scientists. This is nature at work, and we as human beings are actually at the mercy of nature, especially when it comes to infectious disease.
If you are in a public place and start showing symptoms of influenza, SARS or whatever infectious disease is currently in play, you will have no rights. The government can not only kidnap you, it WILL kidnap you and put you in a health facility. You will be isolated from your home, your family, your job and everything you have known as your life. You will be kept there until the health officials can be absolutely sure that you are not infected. Then, if you weren't infected before you were quarantined, there is a chance that you will be infected by the other people in the quarantine area; thus, you could actually end up acquiring the disease during this mandatory quarantine sentence, even though you didn't bring the disease with you in the first place.
I know it sounds like a scary and messy situation. That's exactly what it will be like, however. That's why it is critical that you take charge of your immune system right now and give yourself the advantage of being able to defend against the flu. Doing this will prevent you from getting these symptoms, so that you will not be kidnapped by your government and placed in quarantine. This not an exaggeration. If you ask anybody at the CDC or the WHO, they will tell you exactly what I'm telling you. They have the right and the political power to quarantine individuals, households or even entire towns and cities. Those quarantines will be enforced by military power. I'm not trying to be an alarmist about it, but this is reality; this is what we have to do during an infectious disease outbreak. I actually agree with these policies. If you don't want to be a victim, and if you don't want to be caught up and quarantined, then you need to take responsibility for your immune system health right now.
If you don't want to be caught up in the quarantine and all of the associated complications that will happen in your life if you start showing symptoms, you need to have a strong enough immune system to conquer the disease without showing any symptoms whatsoever. That's why you need to learn the information I provide in Beat The Bird Flu Virus. That book not only shows you how to fight influenza if you are showing symptoms; it also shows you how to boost your immune system to the point that you don't show any symptoms whatsoever. That's the situation you want to be in. You want to go to sleep one night and wake up the next morning with antibodies manufactured with the help of your immune system to make you immune to influenza. You want this to happen in such a way that nobody around you knows it ever happened. Once you manufacture these antibodies, you are no longer contagious; you are no longer spreading this disease to other people. In another sense, boosting your immune system is your responsibility to your family, friends and the people in your community. When you are infectious, you are a threat to their health and life. When you quickly overcome your disease through a healthy immune system, you are not a threat to those people around you. You are helping to protect others by protecting yourself. This is the kind of information you'll find in Beat The Bird Flu Virus, available at www.truthpublishing.com.
Finally, remember that pandemics occur with regular frequency in the human population. This is nothing new. This is something that has happened many times in the past, and it will happen again in the future. Right now, we're overdue for a major pandemic. Our rather bizarre practices with animal feed and disease maintenance today make us more susceptible to pandemics.
Don't sit back and think that this is all some headline news that doesn't affect you. If this becomes an outbreak, it will affect you, and it may change your life in ways you never suspected. It doesn't matter how much money you have. It doesn't matter whether you're a senator or you own a billion-dollar company. If you start showing symptoms of this disease in public, you're going to be quarantined by military force, whether you like it or not. Learn how to protect yourself, so that you can save yourself from all that trouble and protect your family, friends and loved ones from influenza. Don't be a carrier and a transmitter of this disease. Learn how to boost your immune system right now, so that you can overcome it and be virtually immune to it.
