Im no scientist and not even close to a conspiracy theorist, but this I find very interesting. Top post on WordPress this morning was an article by a conspiracy site called New World Liberty The post surmized that the Swine Flu pandemic was predicted almost a month ago when Baxter Pharma was caught shipping a live deadly combination of both human and avian bird flu virus's. Heres a clip from the Toronto Sun (read it all if you get a chance) article from last month explaining what happened.
The contaminated product, a mix of H3N2 seasonal flu viruses and
unlabelled H5N1 viruses, was supplied to an Austrian research company.
The Austrian firm, Avir Green Hills Biotechnology, then sent portions
of it to sub-contractors in the Czech Republic, Slovenia and Germany.
The contamination incident, which is being investigated by the
four European countries, came to light when the subcontractor in the
Czech Republic inoculated ferrets with the product and they died.
Ferrets shouldn’t die from exposure to human H3N2 flu viruses.
Public health authorities concerned about what has been
described as a “serious error” on Baxter’s part have assumed the death
of the ferrets meant the H5N1 virus in the product was live. But the
company, Baxter International Inc., has been parsimonious about the
amount of information it has released about the event.
On Friday, the company’s director of global bioscience communications confirmed what scientists have suspected.
“It was live,” Christopher Bona said in an email.
The contaminated product, which Baxter calls “experimental virus
material,” was made at the Orth-Donau research facility. Baxter makes
its flu vaccine — including a human H5N1 vaccine for which a licence is
expected shortly — at a facility in the Czech Republic.
People familiar with biosecurity rules are dismayed by evidence
that human H3N2 and avian H5N1 viruses somehow co-mingled in the
Orth-Donau facility. That is a dangerous practice that should not be
allowed to happen, a number of experts insisted.
Accidental release of a mixture of live H5N1 and H3N2 viruses could have resulted in dire consequences.
While H5N1 doesn’t easily infect people, H3N2 viruses do. If
someone exposed to a mixture of the two had been simultaneously
infected with both strains, he or she could have served as an incubator
for a hybrid virus able to transmit easily to and among people.
So the idea here is that Baxter is shipping out mutated strains of virus created in thier vaccines. The one in Europe was caught but this is leading people to believe that the Swine Flu is one that WASNT caught. It is also intertesting that Baxter is workign very closely with the WHO-World Heatlh Orginization to provide a vaccination to the Swine Flu.

Specialty drug maker Baxter International Inc. will work with the World Health Organization to develop a vaccine that could stem an outbreak of a deadly swine flu strain in Mexico.
Baxter
spokesman Christopher Bona said Saturday that the Deerfield, Ill.-based
company has asked the WHO for a sample of the flu strain.
He
says Baxter has patented technology that allows the company to develop
vaccines in a half the time it usually takes - about 13 weeks instead
of 26.
Yeah I bet you do have the technology to treat it since you developed it in your labs!!! I am also reading alot about the fact that virus's mutate in nature but do not splice itself with animal DNA. Again I am no scientist but it is interesting that the pig genome is almost identical to the human genome.

A University of Illinois side-by-side comparison of the human and pig genomes has revealed remarkable similarities.
“We
took the human genome, cut it into 173 puzzle pieces and rearranged it
to make a pig,” explains animal geneticist Lawrence Schook. “Everything
matches up perfectly. The pig is genetically very close to humans.”
When
looking at a pig or a human, the difference is seen instantly. “But, in
the biological sense, animals aren’t that much different from one
another – at least not as different as they appear,” he says
Im espcially concerned that with only 20 reported US cases so far that European Health Commisioner advised against unecessary travel to the US.
