hennie—just funnin’ ya!

I have my own tinfoil hat theories regarding the plague in the Ukraine. Historically, the Russians have hated the Ukrainians. They tried to wipe them off the face of the earth in WWII and failed. This may be another insidious attempt at genocide, by releasing these deadly viruses into the Ukrainian population. Germ warfare on a grand scale.

well that’s good to know- I thought it a bit strange that supposedly a combination of flu viruses could cause ‘pneumonia plague’- Although flus can cause pneumonia, I beleive it’s different than the pneumonic plague that animals carry which is so dangerous if it gets goign in humans.

From what I recall waaaaaay back in the early days, with the first reports of alleged pneumatic plague was that it seemed to me, that no one in Ukraine realized that MANY of the extremely ill Westerners in the industrialized world who were hospitalized due to flu, that they had lung hemorrhaging - from H1N1.

What I've said here may be totally incorrect; however, I'm just sharing what my initial impression was... in the beginning, that they didn't seem to have much understanding about the course of H1N1 in severely ill individuals.

And of course, as more TRUE information, fully evidenced and scienfically documented becomes available, then perhaps we will decide some brand new explanation to this scenario.

yep- back when the h1n1 first started makiing news, those hwo died were autopsied, and showed massive lung damage, which made me wonder about what the lungs of those who survived the flu must look like (provided they got pneumonia and survived it)- they said the autopsied lungs looked like the damage that people who got the bird flu and died looked like- it would appear that the damage by the h1n1 and pneumonic plague are similar, and I guess I can see where people thought h1n1 might have been pneumonic plague, and perhaps htoguht another outbreak of plague had begun- While the plagues of old happened a long time ago, plagues still strike fear in people, and rightfully so- The nubmers of deaths just seem like numbers far removed, unti lthey begin hitting close to home- then it becomes al ltoo real, and peopel are udnerstandably nervous about soemthign that might be unstoppable- thankfully the Ukrain deal isn’t the plague, but I can understand how they feared it might be

Interesting, CottShop! Also, I’ve read that the Pneumatic Plague is exceptionally contagious - and that’s downright scary!
