Release:
17 November 2009 -- Preliminary tests reveal no significant changes in the pandemic (H1N1) 2009 virus based on investigations of samples taken from patients in Ukraine. Analyses are being performed by two WHO influenza collaborating centres as part of the global influenza surveillance network.
Preliminary genetic sequencing shows that the virus is similar to the virus used for production of the pandemic influenza vaccine, reconfirming the vaccine's efficacy at this time.
The World Health Organization says tests on swine flu samples from Ukraine show no significant mutation of the virus. The global body said Tuesday that preliminary genetic sequencing at laboratories in Britain and the United States showed that the virus in Ukraine was similar to that used for production of the pandemic flu vaccine. The Ukrainian Health Ministry has registered some 1.4 million cases of flu and respiratory illness since the start of the swine flu outbreak. WHO says most cases are likely swine flu and the infection rate is in line with neighbouring countries such as Russia and Poland.
Why the 13 day delay in the release of the sample results? Did they take samples from individuals that weren’t exhibiting pneumonic plague symptoms?
Their bottom line – Nothing to see here, just take the vaccine.
I suppose getting 1.4 million cases in two weeks is normal? Correct me if I am wrong, but obliteration of one’s lungs wasn’t a symptom of the swine flu? Right? Reports of planes spraying the region right before the outbreak, all of that is just happenstance.
So far a little over 3% of the country is officially infected and the mortality rate is reportedly low. As of 11/15. it appeared that the infection rate is slowing down a bit, however today the numbers are showing another uptick in infection and hospitalization. “and the infection rate is in line with neighbouring countries such as Russia and Poland.” That’s because it’s spreading to those countries. Nice cover.
Is WHO just a hopelessly corrupt and useless organization?
No doubt.
