What is Swine Flu? How Does an Animal Disease Spread to a Human Host?

The Geeks are Sexy blog has a great post explaining everything you need to know about swine flu and how animal diseases can jump across the species barrier.

Have you been watching the news at all recently? If so, you’ve probably heard the term “Swine Flu” bouncing around a lot. While most people come down with the normal human flu at some point, it’s not really a danger to anyone but the very young and the very old. Why is this flu different and what does it have to do with pigs?

Let's not get too hasty now... EVERYBODY PANIC, AFGOIDFJjo

but seriously, unless you're a microbiologist or a doctor, just live your life and don't get caught up in the fear. This is the kind of thing that makes me happy I don't have a TV anymore.

The swine flu is a man-made virus, just like Aids. If you have not got it, you will get it and other man made viruses - if you take th vaccine the will come out with shortly. The vaccine already exists - it will be announced shortly - once there's a pandemic among the world population - then they will announce a vaccine has been developed and it will then be sold to governments world wide and someone will make alot of money - this process of money making is known by such names as: 'government sponsored terror'; 'false flag ops', 'capitalism/socialism'; 'war on the third world' and 'zionist Jew new world order'. Stay alert - STAY AWAY AND DO NOT TAKE THE VACCINE (if you the swine flu will kill you) or anyother vaccines for any condition - do not let them vaccinate your children - vaccines destroy your immune system - and in future they bring out a stronger flu virus and it WILL wipe you out because you have the disarming vaccine in you. Remember these people do not car about you - so take care of yourself and love your neighbor. Pass this info on. NO ONE CAN FIGHT ALONE. THESE ZIONIST JEWS ARE THE ONES RIGHT AT THE TOP BEHIND THIS PLOT - IT IS DESIGNED TO WIPE OUT BROWN AND BLACK SKINNED PEOPLE - THIS ANOTHER 9/11 NEW WORLD ORDER PLOT. REMEMBER ITS ONLY A CONSPIRACY UNTIL IT KILLS YOU OR SOMEONE YOU LOVE FOR NOTHING. THEN WHO YOU GOING TO CALL FOR HELP. THE WILL LAUGH AND IGNORE YOU - JUST LIKE YOU WILL IGNORE THIS MESSAGE.
