H1N1 Swine Flu
Today the News is full of the escalation in cases of Swine Flu.. The media stated that we have had 55,000 new cases in this week alone, while we in Great Britain have had 29 recorded Deaths.
Some of the medical profession saying that this is only a mild dose, while others say it could mutate ..
Today I went to visit my sister, who’s two grandchildren were diagnosed with Swine Flu on Tuesday..
I asked How were they diagnosed?.. she said over the phone via the NHS Direct line…
This is what baffles me…. How can one say for definite that one has Swine flu over the phone.. After ringing the doctor, who told her Not to come to the surgery, after she told them their symptoms, she then spent several hours being past from phone number to phone number as the NHS, asked for the symptoms, which were then hours later confirmed to be SwineFlu. Her Grandchildren, my great niece and nephew are age 8 and 5, have been prescribed Tamiflu. And have been told to stay at home for a week. And not to go out. They are fine by the way, but had some unpleasant symptoms.
How many of the diagnosed over the phone are really Swine Flu?? And even those in the Media were saying that many were ringing up stating they had the symptoms to stock pile Tamiflu!!! But hadn’t got the Flu… So do we believe the figures??
I don’t know… But my instincts tell me that there is More to this Swine Flu than we are aware of..
I met a lady recently whose job was working in a funeral parlour.. She said that they had been asked how many deaths they could cope with, this was at the beginning of the year. As they expected a huge death toll in the Autumn and had been advised to increase their stock of body bags.. Interestingly she said just after October period every year, when the Flu jab inoculations for influenza are given, their intake of deaths went up dramatically.. As many elderly contracted pneumonia, after suffering reactions from the Vaccine..
I know this to be true as my own elderly Aunt had such a reaction, but she overcame it..
I know this is not my usual Type of Blog post, But I don’t feel this virus accidently came into being, And I think it will have another helping hand on its way, As many of the powers that be are saying this world is over populated.
What are your thoughts upon the subject of this Swine Flu?

Phone diagnose???? ~ it certainly sounds ridiculous !!. We have health-line here in Canada as well, but ONLY for advice , referral , meds refill. Really, how can you confirm an illness w/o having any proper test! Anyway do hope ur great niece and nephew get well soon!

Update on my Great niece and nephew,, The 8yr old girl is fine, But the 5yr old is more poorly with diarrhea and sickness, But this started after taking Tamiflu and it states this is a side effect… The parents are worried as this little boy was born pemature with a heart defect, and only a few weeks ago had problems with a racing heart beat… So I would ask that if you can you can send a few prayers to Branden… Those in the angelic realm know where to direct your energies… Thank you.. xx

It kinda sounds like the big pharmacies like to scare people into getting vaccines for the flu in whatever form it comes in. I have never had one of those shots in my life, and rarely get sick, when I do, I just let it run its course and my immune system is stronger for it. It is big money to the drug companies, they don\’t care about a few dead people… That is my thoughts.

They will never give us the full facts concerning this flu Dreamwalker, as you say there is more to this than meets the eye. One day there will be a deadly virus that will certainly wipe out a quarter or more of the population time will tell, and it will happen. Thank you for this in sight xx

It is very worrying, it seems we cant trust anything we are told.. we have to learn everything ourselves either through personal experience or from that of others.My young neice is terrified of getting swine flu because she has heard that much mixed reaction about it, she is now so worried .. something a child should not be.. she feels she cant find safety… from a child to an adult, we dont know where we stand or what is of truth or not .. I think there is ending up to be more fear in not knowing rather than actually getting swine flu itself .. its very very sad indeed.

I too am baffled that they could diagnose Swine Flu over the telephone…I just can\’t believe that is possible. I don\’t think these doctors have a clue; if a patient presents with symptoms they can\’t diagnose, they make up some name for it and scare the heck out of everyone…that\’s my take on it anyway. I agree with you…a diagnosis of something that is supposed to be a very serious illness over the telephone is outrageous!Good post and good information.Hugs

Hi Rhonda, the even more worrying thing is that those on the other end of NHS help lines are NOT Doctors… I clarified with my sister again, and she confirmed No one had seen these children to check them medically, After she had been passed from pillar to post via phone the last phone called confirmed their symptoms, and told the Mum to go to the Drs to collect papers he\’d signed, for her to take to a local hospital to collect the Tamiflu anti-viral drug.. They are both recovering well..

We have quarentine situations left, right and center here….In fact we have people who have died from natural causes held high as swine flu cases…most recent in our own city…Media causes panick say prepare for Bad Pandemic…..but we are only a very little country here so prepare for what…..To die??Our people were once genocided from flu infected blankets and clothes brought here from over the sea…It seems history is repeating and an elite group of drug companies and thier ilk are making millions….I would be very questioning Tamiflu…..Prayers and well wishes for your family…xx

Good Morning Dreamwalker, Today (23/07/08) the latest news in regards to the H1N1 Virus here in Australia today, reports that forty two people have now passed away with the virus. It\’s reported that 21 000 people have been confirmed with the virus and numbers and deaths are growing at a staggering amount. Our winter season here is June-August, with August always being the worst for all coughs and flu\’s. In Australia, there is no over the phone diagnosis. Swabs are taken using this long thin rod with bristles and inserted right down the nasal cavatity and then takes seven days for confirmation. Jaiden had to have this test twice. I thought at the time how brave he was, as I don\’t think I could have even done it.It\’s very interesting how you noted that the elderly had their normal annual flu injection and many of them then had a reaction to the injection, causing further illness.My Doctor, believes and supports the annual flu vaccine, HOWEVER, for people such as myself she says NO don\’t have the injection. I\’ve never had one ever because when I worked it was offered by my employer. Those who did have the injection always ended up sick. I fully believed then that the flu injection was of no advantage.To-date, I have still never taken up the option of having the annual jab. But it appears our hospital intensvise care wards are sadly filling up with people that have contracted the deadly virus H1N1 and within days pass away. It\’s also now had a flow on effect to the Health Workers. So doctors and nursers are stetched to the limit.For me, I do feel somewhat anxious about being out in populated areas. I know the media do sometimes beef these things up more than what they are but with that being said I go by the old notion of PREVENTION IS BETTER THAN CURE.I am cautious when going out, and the times when we had to go out while JL was sick we both wore face masks. I kinda think that I\’d rather do that, then take the chance of the possibility of ending up with the dreadful virus. Yeah, we look silly, but I\’d rather look silly then be struck down by H1N1.People most at risk of contracting the H1N1 already have underlying health issues, so that concerns me, but now it\’s reported that it\’s the healthy are now contracting this terrible virus.I love your thoughts here where you said "I don’t feel this virus accidently came into being, And I think it will have another helping hand on its way, As many of the powers that be are saying this world is over populated."I agree with you 100%… I do not feel this virus accidently came into being!" God warns us that there will be many warnings and signs at the end times. Will we sit up and take notice? This is my view, and my view only. When I think of the Swine Flu, I think back to Genesis in the Holy Bible and what happens in Sodom and Gomorrah. God destroys Sodom. Abraham interceds for Sodom, by challenging God. He asks the Lord if he will indeed sweep away the righteous with the wicked. God rescues Lot, who is Abraham\’s nephew, his wife and daughters so they would not be swept away in the punishment of the city. The Lord rained on Sodom and Gomorrah sulfur and fire, overthrowing those cities, all the valley, and all the inhabitants of the cities. Why? Because it was filled with wickedness.If you get a chance Dreamwalker to read the story of Sodam and Gomorrah that would be wonderful, as I have only given a brief outline. My point is there is so much sin/wickedness in the world. Perhaps, God is preparing us, testing us for worse times ahead. Swine Flu is here, it is out of control… only the righteous will survive.Okay, well just my thoughts. Lots of Love to you always, Kerrie xXx

The swine flu does require much thought. Which is what I have been thinking more and more about. Believing it didn\’t accidently coming into being. Knowing, we have no vaccine available for this virus other than the drug Tamiflu, people are working all around the globe struggling to come up with an apropriate drug and correct dosage. Today human trials begin in Australia for a drug made to combat this virus. I guess when the vaccine is approved, we will see if it is effective, but my inner feeling is that the virus will mutate and another vaccine will then be worked on all around the globe. Since the Swine Flu first hit our headlines at the end of June, they say, don\’t panic, panic, don\’t panic, panic…. this is the work of the devil! I have realised that my concerns are not valid, I trust in God. I\’m not going to give the devil a foothold. The devil is doing exactly that \’trying\’ to get a foothold… goodness always prevails and those who know God, love Him, and I pray will remain steadfast in faith and trust Him, and we will have the victory for Jesus.
