The Swine Flu Pandemic – Let The Blame Game Begin

Wolfgang Wodarg, head of health at the Council of Europe, is claiming that the swine flu outbreak was a ‘false pandemic’ perpetrated by drug companies that stood to make billions of it:
A resolution proposed by Dr Wodarg calling for an investigation into the role of drug firms has been passed by the Council of Europe, the Strasbourg-based ’senate’ responsible for the European Court of Human Rights.
An emergency debate on the issue will be held later this month.
Dr Wodarg’s claims come as it emerged the British government is desperately trying to offload up to £1billion of swine flu vaccine, ordered at the height of the scare.
The Department of Health warned of 65,000 deaths, set up a special advice line and website, suspended normal rules so anti-flu drugs could be given out without prescription and told health and local authorities to prepare for a major pandemic.
Planners were told to get morgues ready for the sheer scale of deaths and there were warnings that the Army could be called in to prevent riots as people fought to obtain drugs.
But with fewer than 5,000 in England catching the disease last week and just 251 deaths overall, Dr Wodarg has branded the H1N1 outbreak as ‘one of the greatest medical scandals of the century’.
He said: ‘We have had a mild flu – and a false pandemic.’
He added the seeds of the scare were sown five years ago, when it was feared the much more lethal bird flu virus would mutate into a human form.
The ‘atmosphere of panic’ led to governments stockpiling the anti-flu drug Tamiflu and putting in place ’sleeping contracts’ for millions of doses of vaccine
Dr Wodarg said: ‘The governments have sealed contracts with vaccine producers where they secure orders in advance and take upon themselves almost all the responsibility.
‘In this way the producers of vaccines are sure of enormous gains without having any financial risks.
‘So they just wait, until WHO says “pandemic” and activate the contracts.’
He also claims that to further push their interests, leading drug companies placed ‘their people’ in the ‘cogs’ of the WHO and other influential organisations.
He added that their influence could have led the WHO to soften its definition of a pandemic - leading to the declaration of a worldwide outbreak last June.
Dr Wodarg said: ‘In order to promote their patented drugs and vaccines against flu, pharmaceutical companies have influenced scientists and official agencies, responsible for public health standards, to alarm governments worldwide.
‘They have made them squander tight healthcare resources for inefficient vaccine strategies and needlessly exposed millions of healthy people to the risk of unknown side-effects of insufficiently tested vaccines.’
I’m actually surprised it took this long for the finger pointing and bloodletting to begin.
Dr Wodarg is claiming the swine flu scare was perpetrated by the evil drug companies. Yet, the evil drug companies can’t declare a pandemic, only the WHO can. And they did. So Dr Wodarg then claims that the evil drug companies sent patsies into the various levels of the WHO and different branches of world governments in order to get them to soften their stances and declare a pandemic, and in turn, the drug companies would make zillions of dollars from the manufactured vaccines and other paraphernalia.
Dr Wodarg then goes on to state, “(the vaccine) needlessly exposed millions of healthy people to the risk of unknown side-effects of insufficiently tested vaccines.’
Hmmmm, I seem to remember hearing from our state-controlled media, the WHO, and various government officials that these vaccines were SUFFICIENTLY tested. I also seem to recall that the only side-effects to the vaccines were mild - things like a little tenderness around the injected area, or perhaps a tiny headache that would only last a few hours. And now we hear that the vaccines were actually “insufficiently tested” and people were exposed “needlessly…to the risk of UNKNOWN side-effects”.
Don’t those words make you think that the doctor knows more than what he’s letting on?
What I see happening here is that in typical Euro-weenie fashion, the good Doctor is deflecting the swine flu blame early in order to limit the financial liabilities to his organization when the thousands of lawsuits over this inoculation disaster start to fly. In other words, “We didn’t do it, the evil pharm companies did – so sue them!”
The Great Swine Flu Pandemic™ is total and utter bullshit – just like we said from the start. The media played its part as usual, by scaring the living daylights out of everyone with their 24/7 non-stop over-the-top, YOU’RE GOING TO DIE IF YOU DON’T GET INNOCULATED news coverage. The media based their coverage on plain ole hysteria and lack of any solid facts whatsoever. And now the media is silent, waiting for the next important Tiger Woods story to break. Typical.
The government can’t be counted on to tell the truth or to ever do the right thing, and they lived up to that in spades, so I don’t blame them one bit. And the Euro-weenies? well, they’ll never change. They’ll always be a bunch of cringing, gutless, lying arseholes who only care about padding their own bloated pockets.
So I guess we have to blame the pharm companies that had the nerve to fill orders and make a profit.
Say, who is John Galt?

The hysteria never affected me — I had already made up my mind that I wouldn’t get the vaccine.
As for the media…same old story. They hyped up the AGW scare as well, but remain relatively quiet on the leaked files that exposed the fraud and junk science.

You’d think it would be a great story for some media types to chase down how this whole pandemic nonsense was spun way out of proportion. I think there would be a huge story there for someone. But then again they’d be admitting that they can’t be trusted in the first place. Quite the conundrum.

You mean large corporations can profit from misery? Kinda like those corps that are bankrolling Global Warming?
I think of them everytime I life a shovel; I cannot afford a snowblower because of green taxes. Scum

The LPC and NDP excoriated the government for NOT being better prepared for the deadly pandemic. Wonder if they’ll apologize for their idiotic remarks.
