Playing with numbers

"Swine flu has killed at least 12,799 people worldwide since it first emerged in Mexico in March 2009, WHO said Friday in its weekly pandemic update on lab-confirmed cases."
Which, interestingly enough, isn't that far off the 1,000 Canadians who die every month from hospital-acquired infection.

Maybe we're not all gonna die after all.

Here's the real farce.

The normal flu in the USA kills close to 30'000 people a year and almost 500'000 globally according to the "Consensus" by WHO and the CDC in the USA.

I listened to a Expert one night on the radio and they pointed out the scams to focus on small numbers but cause the MSM to believe it's a crisis so they report more Deaths in Articles.

When AirPlanes were the Topic du jour for crashes it was the MSM that frightened people to perceive
a crisis where Airplanes where falling from the sky or crashing every day.

BTW

The AGW scam is up, just check out the Snow Fall in Mexico which is recorded as the first time in 150 years for that area.
Iknow.....snow and cold weather is the first sign of Global Warming.

Over our way, they're selling off the vaccine now - no one wants it or needs it any more.

By the way, I've put up a post about Canada and apologize ahead of time in case you see it.

Lets send the left over vaccine the UN and Mugabe as out contribution (instead of cash) to cover our climate crimes.

hey, we could cover a lot of dept with this, how about sending Millers green bins to the UN too.
