False Science: The Parallels

False Science: The Parallels

by Jon Rappoport

I want to point out the common factors in certain disease research and global warming research.

First of all, global warming is based on the notion of a single cause: CO2.  Although pro-AGW (anthropogenic global warming) scientists readily admit there are other factors, they all say it is manmade CO2 which has pushed us over the brink.

In the so-called Swine Flu epidemic, the culprit has been announced: H1N1.  It is the cause of the illness.

CO2 has been absurdly isolated from a whole host of other relevant factors, in a highly complex weather system, as the single entity that has “taken the planet to the edge of disaster.”

H1N1 has been absurdly isolated from a whole host of other relevant factors (immune function, horrendous conditions at the La Gloria, Mexico, Smithfield pig farm, where Swine Flu supposedly originated, etc.) as the single entity causing Swine Flu.

When researchers attempt to explain how CO2 creates excessive warming, they run into contrary evidence and unsolved questions.  Ditto for H1N1.  For example, no standard diagnostic tests measure the concentration of the virus in the body—and it is the level of concentration (titer) which differentiates actual illness from mere passenger-viral status.

Swine Flu cases numbers and deaths don’t even begin to approach the figures on seasonal, conventional, run-of-the-mill flu.  In other words, the effect of H1N1 is relatively slight.  In the same way, when models and massaged temperature data are exposed as fraudulent, the picture of planetary warming becomes modest or even trivial.  The effect of CO2 is slight.

In the case of Swine Flu and global warming, alarmist propaganda has propelled these phenomena into money juggernauts.  Furthermore, in both cases, UN agencies have emerged as power players: WHO and IPCC.  Both agencies have globalist goals—central control of populations through over-hyped threats.

This last fact is more apparent in the matter of AGW.  But a wave of phony epidemics has placed WHO in a cardinal position to call shots on national economies and exert pressure to make governments fall into line and surrender aspects of their sovereignty.

The SARS “epidemic,” in which fewer than 1000 deaths have been reported, globally, since 2003, cost Asian economies $40 billion.  Toronto, shut down by WHO travel advisories, lost several billion dollars—and a budding effort to mount a suit against WHO faded away, as residents of the city bit the bullet.

WHO aims to become a vast and permanent international medical infra-structure that will govern all future epidemics, and in the process allocate resources from various governments to poorer nations.  Wealth re-distribution.

Of course, ceiling caps on carbon emissions and a “kinder, gentler” USSR-type allocation of natural resources, globally, is the goal of IPCC.

At the bottom of all this?  False science.  That is the engine.

Swine Flu Death Report

Swine Flu Death Report

by Jon Rappoport

November 30, 2009

Reuters has put the global death figure from Swine Flu at 6,250. That’s the official total from the beginning of the “pandemic” in April.

Doing the math, and extrapolating for the rest of 2009, we get roughly 10,000 deaths. World-wide.

However, the CDC claims that, in the US alone, every year, 36,000 people die from regular ordinary flu.

WHO estimates that, globally, 300,000 to 500,000 people die every year from ordinary regular flu.

Put it together, folks. This whole thing is a sham and a scam.

If we accept all these stats, CDC/WHO should be saying, “Well, thanks to Swine Flu, we’ve had a mild flu season so far.” Or they should be saying, “Swine Flu is nothing. Regular flu is killing far more people, as we speak. Forget Swine Flu.”

Why aren’t major media pounding on this hoax day after day? One, by and large, they’re too stupid. And two, they don’t want to take on the CDC and WHO and the drug companies that are making billions from the vaccine.

Note: There is a vast difference between publishing two or three articles that question the severity of Swine Flu—and mounting a day-in day-out campaign designed to expose the fraud. Two different animals.

With few exceptions, major media don’t run day-in day-out campaigns about anything anymore. The mindset is: here today, gone tomorrow.

To the degree that the legend of the crusading journalist and publisher was ever true…that day is over. You could drop tons of paint from planes and never hit a crusading newspaper.

I should also point out there is a potential domino effect here. IF a major newspaper or TV network decided to expose the CDC/WHO racket on Swine Flu, after all the heavy propaganda about the “pandemic,” other questions would be raised about these lying agencies and their pharmaceutical allies. There would be a piling-on.

Media are certainly not up for that. It would disturb too many icons and expose too many skeletons, and it would directly challenge medical science, big money, and the veracity of many doctors and medical bureaucrats who feed stories to reporters on a regular basis. The whole structure of medical/health reporting would tremble.

SWINE FLU A FRAUD; PUBLIC HEALTH AGENCIES LYING.

RECENT EPIDEMICS A BUST; PUBLIC FRIGHTENED BY CRIMINALLY FALSE STATEMENTS.

LEADING EXPERT ADMITS WEST NILE, SARS, BIRD FLU, SWINE FLU A BLIP ON THE SCREEN OF DEATH STATISTICS.

106,000 AMERICANS DIE EVERY YEAR FROM THE EFFECTS OF FDA-APPROVED MEDICINES.

US MEDICAL SYSTEMS KILLS 225,000 PEOPLE A YEAR; THIRD LEADING CAUSE BEHIND HEART DISEASE AND CANCER.

CDC, HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES LOOK THE OTHER WAY ON MEDICALLY CAUSED DEATHS.

MAJOR TRANQUILIZERS CAUSE 300,000 CASES OF BRAIN DAMAGE.

And so and so forth, the dominos falling.

Collusion between the press and the public health agencies is the barrier that keeps the overall fraud from crashing into view.

“You lie to me, I’ll lie to the public.” That’s the unspoken treaty between reporters and medical bureaucrats.

No wonder television reporters need so much make-up. It has to cover so much.

CBS and The Swine Flu

CBS and The Swine Flu

by Jon Rappoport

October 22, 2009

Get this. The CDC stopped testing people for Swine Flu in JULY. Why? Because CDC assumed there was already an epidemic, and therefore more tests would be waste of time and money.

CBS has been trying to obtain state-by-state numbers for Swine Flu cases compiled, by the CDC, BEFORE the testing was stopped. The CDC has refused to come across with those numbers. It’s been stonewalling CBS for the last three months.

Why? No answer from the CDC. But the truth is obvious. The actual Swine Flu case numbers don’t begin to match the ominous pronouncements about Swine Flu from the CDC, and the case numbers certainly don’t match the general press hysteria and fear-mongering.

But CBS didn’t stop at the stone wall of the CDC. They went to individual states who continued to test patients for Swine Flu after July, and they obtained some VERY interesting figures.

The figures show that all sorts of illness one might blithely assume was Swine Flu was NOT. Not Swine Flu.

In California, based on 13,704 tests for suspected Swine Flu, only 2% of the patients had Swine Flu. That’s right. 12% had some other kind of flu. And a whopping 86% didn’t have flu at all.

What did the 86% have? Who knows? A cold? A brief cough? A case of fear generated by the CDC?

Boom.

In Florida, based on 8,853 tests for suspected Swine Flu, only 17% had Swine Flu. 83% were negative for other flu. So 83% didn’t have ANY kind of flu.

In Alaska, based on 722 tests for suspected Swine Flu, only 11% had Swine Flu. In Georgia, based on 3,117 tests, only 2% had Swine Flu. 2%.

I have to mention that there are at least two problems, even when lab tests for Swine Flu ARE done. First, the so-called Rapid Test, according to the CDC itself, does not definitively identify H1N1. And two—and much more important—none of the usual Swine Flu tests assess the number of Swine Flu viruses in the body of a particular person. Why does that matter? Because you need millions of a particular virus chomping away to even begin to say that virus is contributing to illness.

So we can assume that the very low numbers of actual Swine Flu cases these states are reporting are even lower. Much lower.

The degree of lying and obfuscation here is huge. The CDC has been caught with its pants down around its ankles. The “epidemic” is at best a trickle. The game is over.

But of course the hysteria will continue. The CDC will ignore these revelations. The vaccine campaign will continue. The utter bullshit will keep piling higher and higher. The drug companies will keep ringing up the cash register.

President Obama, whose cabinet post, Health and Human Services, is in charge of the CDC, will perhaps not even know what is going on. If he does figure it out, he’ll do nothing. The train has already left the station. It’s too late to suffer the level of executive embarrassment the truth would deliver.

Remember this moment. Remember it, because you know that, in the future, the CDC will be making announcements about other diseases. You’ll be able to muster the amount of gargantuan doubt that the CDC deserves. Unless you like being fooled. Unless you like the fear. Unless you like having something, anything to believe in, regardless of the track record.

Here is the CBS story:

Swine Flu Cases Overestimated?

CBS News Exclusive: Study Of State Results Finds H1N1 Not As Prevalent As Feared

by Sharyl Attkisson

October 21, 2009

If you’ve been diagnosed “probable” or “presumed” 2009 H1N1 or “swine flu” in recent months, you may be surprised to know this: odds are you didn’t have H1N1 flu.

In fact, you probably didn’t have flu at all. That’s according to state-by-state test results obtained in a three-month-long CBS News investigation.

The ramifications of this finding are important. According to the Center for Disease Control, CDC, and Britain’s National Health Service, once you have H1N1 flu, you’re immune from future outbreaks of the same virus. Those who think they’ve had H1N1 flu — but haven’t — might mistakenly presume they’re immune. As a result, they might skip taking a vaccine that could help them, and expose themselves to others with H1N1 flu under the mistaken belief they won’t catch it. Parents might not keep sick children home from school, mistakenly believing they’ve already had H1N1 flu.

Why the uncertainty about who has and who hasn’t had H1N1 flu?

In late July, the CDC abruptly advised states to stop testing for H1N1 flu, and stopped counting individual cases. The rationale given for the CDC guidance to forego testing and tracking individual cases was: why waste resources testing for H1N1 flu when the government has already confirmed there’s an epidemic?

Some public health officials privately disagreed with the decision to stop testing and counting, telling CBS News that continued tracking of this new and possibly changing virus was important because H1N1 has a different epidemiology, affects younger people more than seasonal flu and has been shown to have a higher case fatality rate than other flu virus strains.

CBS News learned that the decision to stop counting H1N1 flu cases was made so hastily that states weren’t given the opportunity to provide input. Instead, on July 24, the Council for State and Territorial Epidemiologists, CSTE, issued the following notice to state public health officials on behalf of the CDC:

“Attached are the Q&As that will be posted on the CDC website tomorrow explaining why CDC is no longer reporting case counts for novel H1N1. CDC would have liked to have run these by you for input but unfortunately there was not enough time before these needed to be posted (emphasis added).”

On Aug. 4, CBS News asked the CDC for e-mail communications to states and other documents regarding the guidance and its rationale. When CDC did not provide us with the documents, such as state-by-state numbers prior to halting testing and tracking, we filed a Freedom of Information request with the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). More than two months later, the request has not been fulfilled.

We asked all 50 states for their statistics on state lab-confirmed H1N1 prior to the halt of individual testing and counting in July. The results reveal a pattern that surprised a number of health care professionals we consulted. The vast majority of cases were negative for H1N1 as well as seasonal flu, despite the fact that many states were specifically testing patients deemed to be most likely to have H1N1 flu, based on symptoms and risk factors, such as travel to Mexico.

It’s unknown what patients who tested negative for flu were actually afflicted with since the illness was not otherwise determined. Health experts say it’s assumed the patients had some sort of cold or upper respiratory infection that is just not influenza.

With most cases diagnosed solely on symptoms and risk factors, the H1N1 flu epidemic may seem worse than it is. For example, on Sept. 22, this alarming headline came from Georgetown University in Washington D.C.: “H1N1 Flu Infects Over 250 Georgetown Students.”

H1N1 flu can be deadly and an outbreak of 250 students would be an especially troubling cluster. However, the number of sick students came not from lab-confirmed tests but from “estimates” made by counting “students who went to the Student Health Center with flu symptoms, students who called the H1N1 hotline or the Health Center’s doctor-on-call, and students who went to the hospital’s emergency room.”

Without lab testing, it’s impossible to know how many of the students actually had H1N1 flu. But the statistical trend indicates it was likely much fewer than 250.

CDC continues to monitor flu in general and H1N1 through “sentinels,” which basically act as spot-checks to detect trends around the nation. But at least one state, California, has found value in tracking H1N1 flu in greater detail.

“What we are doing is much more detailed and expensive than what CDC wants,” said Dr. Bela Matyas, California’s Acting Chief of Emergency Preparedness and Response. “We’re gathering data better to answer how severe is the illness. With CDC’s fallback position, there are so many uncertainties with who’s being counted, it’s hard to know how much we’re seeing is due to H1N1 flu rather than a mix of influenza diseases generally. We can tell that apart but they can’t.”

After our conversation with Dr. Matyas, public affairs officials with the California Department of Public Health emphasized to CBS News that they support CDC policy to stop counting individual cases, maintaining that the state has the resources to gather more specific testing data than the CDC.

Because of the uncertainties, the CDC advises even those who were told they had H1N1 to get vaccinated unless they had lab confirmation. “Persons who are uncertain about how they were diagnosed should get the 2009 H1N1 vaccine.”

That’s unwelcome news for a Marietta, Georgia mom whose two children were diagnosed with “probable” H1N1 flu over the summer. She hoped that would mean they wouldn’t need the hastily developed H1N1 flu vaccine. However, since their cases were never confirmed with lab tests, the CDC advises they get the vaccine. “I wish they had tested and that I knew for sure whether they had it. I’m not anxious to give them an experimental vaccine if they don’t need it.”

Speaking to CBS’ “60 Minutes,” CDC Director Dr. Frieden said he has confidence that the vaccine will be safe and effective: “We’re confident it will be effective we have every reason to believe that it will be safe.”

However, the CDC recommendation for those who had “probable” or “presumed” H1N1 flu to go ahead and get vaccinated anyway means the relatively small proportion of those who actually did have H1N1 flu will be getting the vaccine unnecessarily. This exposes them to rare but significant side effects, such as paralysis from Guillain-Barre syndrome.

It also uses up vaccine, which is said to be in short supply. The CDC was hoping to have shipped 40 million doses by the end of October, but only about 30 million doses will be available this month.

The CDC did not response to questions from CBS News for this report.

Update on Swine Flu

Update on Swine Flu

by Jon Rappoport

October 17, 2009

As some of you know, the World Health Organization has listed Swine Flu as a pandemic.  This is yet another step in the direction of getting governments to take “emergency” postures and actions.

Translation: Let’s trash the Bill of Rights where we can and see what happens.  Each one of these fake epidemics (West Nile, SARS, Bird Flu, Swine Flu) provides a test for those who want more control over your life. 

What can they get away with? 

How compliant will you be? 

If the vaccine is made mandatory, will you take it? 

Will you accept a diagnosis of Swine Flu and refrain from questioning its validity? 

If you’re told to take the vaccine and refuse, will you submit to quarantine in your home?

Is there a point at which, even though you feel doubt about the whole charade called Swine Flu, you’ll buckle under the pressure of constant media reports and accept the official line on what Swine Flu is, where it comes from, and what you must do to “behave like a good citizen?”

One central idea you should understand at the core: these “propaganda diseases,” as I call them, all proceed from the growing notion that no one is an individual and we are all part of the Group.  As such, we must “share and care,” become “more responsible” and “more sensitive” to the needs of others.  It’s a big philosophic idea, really, and it’s existed since the dawn of time:

THE GROUP IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING.

THE GREATEST GOOD FOR GREATEST NUMBER.

However, behind this apparently humane concept lurks the hand of power.  If people can be programmed with this assumption and belief, they can be manipulated on that basis until the cows come home.  They can be told such and such action must be taken, because it is in the “greater interest.”

In the case of Swine Flu, the proposition could approach this climax:  You can’t be allowed to run around as a potential carrier and spreader of the disease.  Therefore, you must take the vaccine.  You must refrain from travel to certain cities.  You must not meet with more than six people at one time.  And so on and so forth.

If you obey the mandates coming down from on high, you’re a good boy and a good girl, and you’re helping the Group.  If you refuse to obey, you’re bad.  You’re an outcast from the Group.  You need to be brought into line.

And now add in this: Swine Flu has never been established, through rigorous and confirmed science, as a legitimate disease.  The test for its presence in an individual is completely flawed and without merit.  From available evidence, what is being labeled Swine Flu is exactly what has been called “flu.”  Ordinary flu. It comes about from many sources, and its remedy does not entail taking drugs or vaccines.

The “protection” that health agencies and governments are offering to “ensure your safety” and the safety of others is without merit.  It amounts to naked control over your life.

Here is a key point.  All the tests being done to determine whether a person has Swine Flu overlook one major factor.  How many Swine Flu viruses are actually in the body of an individual?  Why is that vital?  Because it takes an army of millions to make a dent in the health of a person—and quite often, a person has only a few viruses of a particular kind in his body.  In that case, the result is nil.  Zero.  There is no disease.  There is no illness.

The current tests for Swine Flu ignore this whole issue.  If these tests suggest there is ANY Swine Flu virus present in the patient, he is declared a Swine Flu case.

It’s bad and ludicrous science, and the whole fake epidemic is based on it.
