2009 Swine Flu H1N1 UPDATE-Swine Flu Vaccinations
Swine Flu H1N1 UPDATE-Swine Flu Vaccinations are not selling like the pharmaceutical companies had hoped that they would.
The cities that where hard it in the Spring of 2009 are seeing less Swine Flu or H1N1 now.
In fact, doctors are saying that many New Yorkers are now immune. The possibility arises that many people in these spring-outbreak epicenters have already gained some immunity to H1N1, and this “herd immunity” is keeping a wider fall outbreak at bay.
OR is it that the swine flu is not the monster that they predicted that it would be?
New York, Philadelphia and other cities hit hard in Spring of 2009 by the swine flu or H1N1 are not seeing as much of it now, even though outbreaks are occurring in all 50 states.
According to a report released Thursday. October 8th 2009, health officials in New York City, Boston and Philadelphia, say they are seeing less swine flu now than they did during the initial outbreak.
2009 Swine Flu H1N1 UPDATE-Swine Flu Vaccinations…Is it the flu season of 1979 all over again? All hype? Is that why nurses and health care professionals are refusing to take it. even when they are threatened with their jobs, to take the flu vaccination…
“This is very much in keeping with what I am seeing here in New York,” noted one flu expert, Dr. Marc Siegel, an associate professor of medicine at New York University School of Medicine.
“Not only is there not a resurgence of flu in areas where there were previous large outbreaks, but there are probably very mild cases going around that are going under the radar, because people don’t even realize they are flu,” he continued.
Siegel agreed that widespread immunity from the spring outbreak may have led to a different kind of autumn outbreak. That’s because many people exposed to the flu don’t get seriously ill, but they do build an immunity to it. “There’s a large percentage of patients who don’t get ill…we only focus on those who do,” Seigel finished.
In New York City, was hit with 10 percent to 20 percent of the population falling ill with the H1N1 virus in the spring and up to 40 percent of New Yorkers may have been exposed to the swine flu. These people may have become immune to the disease and are thus preventing it from spreading now.
This high level of immunity may make a second wave of the H1N1 much less extensive, the experts are stating.
“We’re not seeing illness in the city right now,” Dr. Thomas A. Farley, New York City’s health commissioner during a flu conference last Friday led by Kathleen Sebelius, the health and human services secretary. “We’re seeing essentially no disease transmitted in the city. We had 750,000 to one million sick people last spring. We were the hardest-hit city then. So we have a lot of immune people right now.”
Reports in from Boston by Dr. Anita Barry, director of the infectious disease bureau of the Boston Public Health Commission, states that although 11 percent of teens in her city got swine flu in the spring, public schools and college health services have reported very little flu this fall.
In addition, Seattle, Connecticut and Utah which also had a lot of people with the swine flu in Spring of 2009, are seeing less now, Donald R. Olson, research director for the International Society for Disease Surveillance reports.
Should baby Boomers get the H1N1 or Swine flu shot or nose spray? Personally I would not get it if they paid me to get it. It is a man made flu and a man made vaccine. Follow the money.
Although areas hit hardest in the spring are seeing cases of flu, other parts of the country, where the flu was not as extensive, are seeing outbreaks, particularly in the Southeast, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
But hasn’t the CDC been linked with large pharmaceuticals? can you trust then any more?
I am not going for all of the hype of the swine flu or H1N1. I am what you consider a high risk person since I have no immune system with Lupus and I am not getting a shot.

There is a lot more to preparing for and preventing Swine Flu than just washing your hands and we can’t rely on an untested vaccine that is in short supply…
