The Bird Flu Conspiracy

By , About.com GuideMay 11, 2006

Follow me on:

Did you know that governments worldwide are stockpiling the antiviral drug Tamiflu in preparation for a bird flu pandemic even though only about a hundred people have died of the disease in the past nine years? Did you know that Tamiflu sales exceeded $1 billion last year? Did you know that Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld owns stock in the company that patented Tamiflu valued at between $5 million and $25 million?  Hmmm...

The way our government pops out these viruses, and invests in the drug companies, it’s a wonder anyone is still alive here in the “homeland”. Don’t get me going!!!!

Nobody is going to die from Birdflu except hopefully George Bush and Rumsfled family. This is another hoax from the profiteering pharmaceutical circus. Dont worry. As far as I know, the lesser western medicinal drug you take, the healthier you are..that includes all the vitamins.

The way I see it, you can’t ever trust anything thats said by anyone anymore. There is always a reason that the government brings stuff like this up and this article explains it. Bird influenza is just another scam. and everyone is buying it.

The current global economic crisis could potentially be the catalyst that sets everything into motion. You can’t tell me that Paulsen, Bernanke et al, we completely taken aback by the looming global financial breakdown. those that think we can avoid another Great Depression are only fooling yourselves. With a drastic reduction in population, there are fewer mouths at the various governments’ teats.

if they dont use bird flu, they could easily use aerosol anthrax… 90 lethality rate in humans.
