I think he’s wagging something else at us.
Why? Probably because soon it will be determined that guns and ammunition cause H1N1.
This is not a National Emergency.
and what certain federal laws would the govt be planning to bypass pray tell, oh news media? are we going to have quarantines set up?
HEY NEWS MEDIA! WHAT SAY YOU FIND OUT WTF IS GOING ON AND LET US IN ON IT!? Give balloon boy a day off maybe, huh.
Really?
Please cite authority for that statement.
CVS has been revamping many of their stores to install mini clinics. They will spend a lot of money so there is a lot of money to be made. They wouldn’t be doing this if there wasn’t some prearranged plan with the powers that be to be sure it’s profitable. Guaranteed this is somehow factored into the health plan.
CHAOS!
Like the JOKER!
[wheres that at?]
PantyWaist President
Why am I not surprised.
from: Things to watch for during a “Declared National Emergency”
Let’s see, 1000 dead from swine flu out of 300 million people. That comes down to 1 out of 300,000. A percentage rate of: drum roll please: .00033%. Yep, time to declare a national emergency. Our dictator wannabe is up to something big time.
CVS did this because walmart did it. They saw a way to increase sales per square foot by offering low cost procedures to people without insurance. Free market health care reform.
Got ammo?
Got food?
Got gasoline?
Key Flu Indicators
October 23, 2009, 11:30 AM
Each week CDC analyzes information about influenza disease activity in the United States and publishes findings of key flu indicators in a report called FluView. During the week of October 11-17, 2009, a review of the key indictors found that influenza activity continued to increase in the United States from the previous week. Below is a summary of the most recent key indicators:
* Visits to doctors for influenza-like illness (ILI) increased steeply since last week in the United States, and overall, are much higher than what is expected for this time of the year. ILI activity now is higher than what is seen during the peak of many regular flu seasons.
* Total influenza hospitalization rates for laboratory-confirmed flu are climbing and are higher than expected for this time of year.
* The proportion of deaths attributed to pneumonia and influenza (P&I) based on the 122 Cities Report has increased and has been higher than what is expected at this time of year for two weeks. In addition, 11 flu-related pediatric deaths were reported this week; 9 of these deaths were confirmed 2009 H1N1, and two were influenza A viruses, but were not subtyped. Since April 2009, CDC has received reports of 95 laboratory-confirmed pediatric 2009 H1N1 deaths and another 7 pediatric deaths that were laboratory confirmed as influenza, but where the flu virus subtype was not determined.
* Forty-six states are reporting widespread influenza activity at this time. They are: Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming. This many reports of widespread activity are unprecedented during seasonal flu.
* Almost all of the influenza viruses identified so far are 2009 H1N1 influenza A viruses. These viruses remain similar to the virus chosen for the 2009 H1N1 vaccine, and remain susceptible to the antiviral drugs oseltamivir and zanamivir with rare exception.
Not legal orders for the military to follow. Uphold the Constitution is what is sworn to.
Why? Because he can.
And it throws a bone to the doctors and pharm. companies before he and Snowe run an end around to get his precious 60 votes.
good to know...thanks
