The Swine Flu Vaccine Isn’t For Pregnancy

Monday, November 30th, 2009

A sad story about an eleven year old girl from South Bend who died last month from H1N1 was recently reported on Fox28.  Stories continue to surface about those who have died from the virus.

Food Consumer has published a story regarding pregnant women and the vaccine.  The story states that because the vaccine has not been adequately tested on pregnant women it can never be established as safe for pregnant women in any stage of pregnancy and pregnant women should instead, stay out of public places as frequently as possible.

9 News is reporting that the mutated H1N1 virus is responsible for the death of two French occupants.  The report goes on to state that this mutated version could increase the ability of the virus to affect respiratory tracts and lung tissue.  We’ve already seen the original Swine Flu virus cause considerable damage in respiratory and lung health, quickly turning into pneumonia and killing thousands.

It’s especially important, now that people are spending increased amounts of time in enclosed spaces because of the colder weather, that you take care of yourself and look for any way to naturally boost your immune system.

H1N1 Vaccine: Too Little Too Late

Friday, November 27th, 2009

In an enlightening report published by E Releases, the researchers found that the biological H1N1 vaccine could never be enough for the entirety of the 6.7 billion people being affected.  As with any pandemic, once a disease has gone viral, it’s already too late to attempt to make a vaccine of any type because to develop and manufacture a biological vaccine takes much longer than the brief period of time it takes a virus to take hold.

Sadly, many states are reporting their death tolls are continuing to rise. The Iowa Independent has confirmed the states 27th death. 

Naturally, with reports like the Cleveland Leader’s update on Canada’s GlaxoSmithKline fiasco, where the Swine Flu vaccine is causing an unusually high number of anaphalaxis, people get scared. 

Individuals are concerned about catching the virus and justifiably scared about getting the vaccine.

Looking toward natural remedies and preventative measures is a safe bet though that will have many other advantages for your physical, mental and emotional health.

You Can Catch H1N1 More Than Once

Thursday, November 26th, 2009

The most recent news about the Swine Flu has added twists.  The Faster Times is reporting that in both the UK and now in the United States confirmed cases of the Tamiflu resistant H1N1 strain.

Health officials and doctors are concerned that this Tamiflu resistant strain will be more problematic for those considered high risk because the virus could more adversely affect their lung health and could turn into pneumonia.

While the number of cases is minimal, five in the UK and 4 in the United States, it’s unknown how serious the resistant strain could turn.

Fox News is reporting that a West Virginia doctor has now had the H1N1 virus twice.  Unfortunately, everyone has been hoping that catching the H1N1 virus would give you automatic immunity against contracting it ever again.  The fact that the virus is mutating is also dashing hopes that this pandemic would pass quickly.

Still, while the virus is travelling globally, utilizing natural means for improving your health and boosting your immune system is your best bet for Swine Flu prevention.

What’s GlaxoSmithKline Hiding About H1N1 Vaccine?

Wednesday, November 25th, 2009

The latest news concerning Swine Flu and the speedily manufactured Swine Flu vaccine is that drug manufacturer GlaxoSmithKline has recalled a batch of 170,000 doses of the vaccine, reports the Associated Press.

As usual, the CDC and other medical groups monitor the reactions from the vaccine and it seems that this particular batch distributed in Canada is causing more allergic reactions than some of the others. 

GlaxoSmithKline is the second largest drug maker by revenue.  This should cause some concern because not only was the vaccine manufactured quite rapidly, but from the beginning, drug makers priority is to make money from the mass production of these vaccines.  Human error may have been the reason for the rate of unusual allergic reactions, but maybe not.

It’s been widely publicized that this particular vaccine includes some unsafe ingredients such as aluminum, squalene and even cancerous cells from animals to name a few.

While it certainly is tempting to partake in a mass vaccination which is being hailed as the cure all for the deadly H1N1 virus, it doesn’t change the fact that the vaccine unsafe and mostly untested. 

Almost every doctor will agree that a natural remedy is preferred over a chemical toxin and that boosting your body’s immune system is more beneficial than introducing an unknown substance to your system.

Mutated H1N1 Virus Causing Problems

Tuesday, November 24th, 2009

The Swine Flu season has hopefully peaked but now the virus has taken a turn for the worse. Trak has reported that the Swine Flu in some victims in North Carolina has developed resistance to Tamiflu.  The Examiner has brought up the question if the vaccine will be effective against the H1N1 virus at all? That’s unclear at this point.

For those with compromised immune systems the H1N1 virus is much more dangerous and can most certainly be lethal.  Gainesville has reported that some HIV patients have agreed to allow the H1N1 vaccine to be tested on them because they are such a high risk.

The best way to guarantee good health and resistance to the H1N1 virus is boost your immune system naturally.

There are some very useful tips available online for boosting your immune health.  Some practical but helpful tips include getting plenty of rest, eating a healthy and balanced diet low in sugar and fat but high in fiber and nutrients.  It’s also helpful to remember that any chemicals introduced into your body are unnatural and can compromise your immunity.  This includes vaccinations, artificial foods and toxins that exist in your every day environment .

Is The Swine Flu Mutating?

Monday, November 23rd, 2009

Although we know much more about Swine Flu now than we did even 6 months ago, rumors continue to swirl as bad news regarding the virus is reported.

While, yes, the Swine Flu is considered a pandemic, the rate at which it’s spreading is why it’s considered a pandemic, not because of how lethal it is.  The New York Times is reporting that the Swine Flu seems to have peaked.  While medical organizations speculate this is as bad as it will get in the United States, many others believe it will peak more than once.

The Washington Post is reporting that investigations into two deaths in Norway are cause for concern that the H1N1 virus has mutated.  A potential mutation could mean a more severe virus that penetrates the lungs more deeply or one which leads to a more severe case of pneumonia.

And sadly, the Washington Post has also published the sad details of a 6 year old Virginia girl who has died from the H1N1 virus.  The girl, who was seemingly healthy died quickly from the virus, even after seeing a doctor earlier on.

Although, these stories are frightening, it’s important to continue utilizing natural means to strengthen your immune system to fight off all seasonal illnesses.

You Don’t Have To Fear The Swine Flu

Friday, November 20th, 2009

Reports of death and pandemic continue to flood the airways .  The Examiner is reporting that in the Ukraine, they’ve had 18 Swine Flu related deaths in the past 24 hours.

With reports being published like this recent one on Breitbart, that 60% of Americans will be infected by the H1N1 virus, it’s tempting to feel helpless and at a loss.

It’s also quite disturbing to hear experts like Wolfgang Wodarg verbalize on Bild his concerns over the Swine Flu vaccine contributing to cancer.

With seemingly few answers more and more Americans are turning to natural preventative means and alternative remedies to boost their immune system and protect themselves from illness.  Experts in every medical field are recommending that one of the best means of protection from the Swine Flu virus and illness year round is to boost your immune system.

While there is no cure for the flu opting for an untested vaccine could be just as deadly.  Choosing to boost your system naturally is safe and effective.

Swine Flu Party Of One

Thursday, November 19th, 2009

With the Health Care bill still in the air, leaving many Americans on their own to figure out how they’ll get much needed medical care and often left without options because many don’t get paid sick leave, it’s more important now than ever to be proactive.

PR Newswire offers the “Ultimate Swine Flu Survival Guide.”  This list is packed with sensible ideas such as extra rest and good hygiene habits but also with stellar recommendations for supplements and herbs.

While Reuters is reporting a spike In Canada’s Swine Flu related deaths Bloomberg reports an astonishing 37 deaths in just a short week.

Criminals are also taking advantage of those seeking out Tamiflu and other flu “cures.”  Examiner is reporting that government officials are cracking down on those selling phony drugs and those companies who are making false claims that they have a drug that will “cure” the Swine Flu.

So, with the virus looming and many suffering at its hands it’s important to take precautions but the healthiest and safest option is to pursue natural remedies and preventative methods to build your immune system.

The Risks From The H1N1 Vaccine

As the Swine Flu Vaccine gets distributed across the globe stories of mishaps, illness and death are becoming all too popular.

Time has reported that in China, two people have died after receiving the Swine Flu vaccination. One victim was a female school teacher.  Chinese officials have pulled the batch in which that particular vaccine came from and are no longer distributing vaccinations from that batch.

Going Natural With H1N1

Monday, November 16th, 2009

Fox News is reporting that a 14 year old Virginia boy has developed Guillain-Barre Syndrome after getting the Swine Flu vaccine and the seasonal flu vaccine.

Info Wars is also reporting that a French healthcare worker has also developed Guillain-Barre Syndrome six days after she received the Swine Flu vaccine.

With reports like this coursing through newspapers and the Internet, individuals across the globe should resist getting any vaccine that could jeopardize their health and their lives.

While, yes, the virus presents a clear danger, like in Kentucky where WLWT is reporting a young man is the state’s 20th casualty from the H1N1 virus.  The virus itself is a risk to healthy, elderly, young, pregnant – virtually everyone, so what can be done?

Doctors and specialists are recommending that boosting your immune system is one of the safest and natural measures you can take.  For old and young alike, eating healthy, resting, good hygiene and adding natural supplements to your diet will surpass the benefits most artificial drugs can give you.
