Bird Flu ~ Even Scientists are seeing the HOAX

BIRD FLU UPDATE: EVEN SCIENTISTS ARE SEEING THE HOAXJON RAPPOPORT www.nomorefakenews.comNOVEMBER 14, 2005.Here is a very telling snip from a recent NY Times article about birdflu and the "dreaded" H5N1 virus.Hazards in the hunt for flu bugBy Gina KolataThe New York TimesWEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 2005From near the end of the article..."Some experts like Peter Palese of the Mount Sinai Schoolof Medicine in New York said the H5N1 viruses are a falsealarm. He notes that studies of serum collected in 1992from people in rural China indicated that millions therehad antibodies to the H5N1 strain. That means they had beeninfected with an H5N1 bird virus and recovered, apparentlywithout incident."Do you get what this means? First of all, going back as far as 1992,millions of Chinese people had antibodies to H5N1. That's 13 yearsago, and although you might expect that hundreds of thousands of thesepeople would have come down with an "H5N1 illness," THEY DIDN'T.Actually, as Peter Palese points out, you WOULDN'T EXPECT THATPEOPLE WOULD GET SICK, BECAUSE ANTIBODIES ARE A SIGN THAT PEOPLE PUTUP A SUCCESSFUL IMMUNE RESPONSE TO THE GERM AND STAYED HEALTHY.THAT'S WHAT ANTIBODIES ARE ALL ABOUT.This fact is devastating to the scare propaganda about bird flu.Devastating.To add even more fuel to the fire, as I documented in a recent article,the main type of testing for H5N1 in both animals and people aroundthe world is TESTING FOR ANTIBODIES.This is fraud, outright fraud: INTERPRET A SIGN OF HEALTH(ANTIBODIES) AS A SIGN OF ILLNESS.I can spell out the fraud a little further. Take some virus, give it aname, and then baldly assume, without evidence, that it is verydangerous. Then, check to see if people and animals have antibodies toit. If they do, you say, "Well, you see, we have direct evidence thatpeople have been encountering this highly dangerous virus. After all,they're making antibodies to it. That means they contacted the germ.So there is a good chance they are sick or will get sick..."Mad. Insane. Absurd. THERE WAS NO REASON TO ASSUME THAT THE GERM WASDANGEROUS IN THE FIRST PLACE. IN FACT, THE PRESENCE OF ANTIBODIES TOLDYOU THAT. IT TOLD YOU THAT THESE PEOPLE'S IMMUNE SYSTEMS HAD NOPROBLEM WITH THE GERM AT ALL.So why have 64 people died from H5N1 in Asia? THERE IS EVERY REASONTO SUSPECT THEY DIDN'T DIE FROM H5N1.To do good science, you have to go back and check, in great detail,what was happening to these people. What other medical conditions didthey have? What drugs were they taking? Redo the tests. Don't look forantibodies. Look for the H5N1 germ itself. If you can find it at all,determine how many H5N1s were in the bodies of these people---becauseit takes a whole lot (millions and millions and millions) of germsbeing very active to contribute to illness.Lately (and we see this kind of thing whenever a crazy hypothesisabout a germ causing death surfaces), several scientists have offered anunsubstantiated explanation for how H5N1 is supposedly killingpeople: the presence of H5N1 causes "a ctyokine storm" in the lungs.Cytokines are part of immune response. They help create inflammation,which is normally an aspect of immune defense. But in the case ofH5N1, the ctyokines are attacking H5N1 so powerfully (too powerfully)that the lung inflammation is enormous and closes off the airways, thebreathing passages, leading to acute oxygen deficit.It sounds good, but the one small batch of experiments done so farhas been IN PETRI DISHES, using lung issue taken out of the body andexamined in the lab. According to one group of researchers, this lungtissue becomes severely inflamed when exposed to H5N1. Frequently,though, these in vitro results are far different from what actuallyhappens INSIDE THE BODY. So here we have a situation where theexperiments were done only one time by one group of scientists in onelab. This is vastly premature "science."The hoax continues...JON RAPPOPORT www.nomorefakenews.com
