s
the number of swine flu deaths swell to an alarming 1,800
worldwide, and the World Health Organization predicts an
"explosion" of swine flu cases in the coming months and
declares a "public health emergency of international concern," a
pandemic appears to be not only possible but
inevitable. The last pandemic -- the Hong Kong flu of 1968
-- killed about 1 million people.

In the U.S., a White House panel warns that swine flu could
kill up to 90,000 Americans. The outbreak of swine flu virus
last spring was only a preview of the chilling events to
come. NBC's Today Show reports, "Up to half the U.S.
population could potentially be infected when the virus hits
with full force." The onslaught of swine flu will make itself
painfully known during the upcoming flu season, starting fairly
early in September. It will most likely
infect
30-50% of the U.S. population, or up to
152 million
people; 1.8 million hospital admissions are expected;
and as many as 300,000 people will be requiring intensive care,
according to the panel of advisors to President Obama.

Initial supplies of the swine flu vaccine, which will be
available sometime in October are expected to be very limited --
barely enough to inoculate the 160 million people who are at
high risk of becoming infected. An even bigger concern is
whether the fast-tracked vaccine is safe and effective -- since
it's being rushed to market without the appropriate
testing and safety evaluations.
It is a growing suspicion in the general population and
among certain members of the medical community, including Dr.
Joseph Mercola, the publisher of a popular self-titled natural
health newsletter, that being exposed to this new
swine flu vaccine might prove to be more dangerous than the
swine flu itself.
NBC's Today Show even ran a news report in which the
question was posed as to whether the swine flu vaccine testing
(which started August 10) was making people "human guinea
pigs." This question must necessarily be asked because the
swine flu vaccine catastrophe of 1976 is still fresh in
the public's mind. Dr. Mercola reported that in 1976, the swine
flu vaccine was blamed for 25 deaths; several hundred people
developed crippling Guillain-Barr
Syndrome; and $1.3 billion in claims were filed by victims who
had suffered paralysis from the experimental vaccine. "Even
healthy 20-year-olds ended up as paraplegics."
Madison Cavanaugh, author of
The One-Minute Cure: The Secret to Healing Virtually All
Diseases insists, however, that the fear is
incorrectly placed on the swine influenza virus itself.
"Microbes, germs, harmful bacteria and viruses, such as the
swine influenza virus, do not cause disease in and
of themselves," Cavanaugh states. "They do seek their natural
habitat -- such as an oxygen-deficient body -- rather
than being the cause of the disease. It's no different
from the way mosquitoes seek out stagnant water, but do not
cause the pool to become stagnant."
Cavanaugh's assertion is consistent with the findings of Dr.
Rudolf Virchow (1821 - 1902), also called the "Father of
Pathology." It is also supported by Louis Pasteur, the notable
19th century French chemist and microbiologist best known for
his remarkable breakthroughs in the causes and prevention of
disease, who recanted his germ theory of disease at his
deathbed, stating, "The microbe is nothing. The terrain is
everything." The terrain of which he spoke refers to an
oxygenated environment in the human body, which makes for a
strong immune system. A weakened or suppressed state of the
immune system only occurs when the human body lacks oxygen,
thereby allowing viruses, such as the swine influenza virus, to
breed. It therefore
stands to reason that the swine influenza virus does not
cause disease, but rather seeks out an environment where it can
thrive best -- and that is in oxygen-deprived bodies. "A
sufficiently oxygenated body is uninhabitable by disease,"
Cavanaugh states, and viruses can neither survive nor thrive in
it. Therefore, the best defense against microbes, germs,
harmful bacteria and viruses, such as the swine flu virus, is to
keep the body oxygenated.
Cavanaugh's book,
The One-Minute Cure, discusses the therapeutic use of
the only natural substance which stimulates the movement of
oxygen atoms from the bloodstream to the cells to a dramatically
greater degree than is usually reached by other means. This
action creates an oxygenated environment that
enables the
body to cure itself of virtually all diseases ranging
from influenza to cancer, AIDS, heart disease, asthma, diabetes
and arthritis. The natural oxygenating substance which is the
core subject of the book has a long history of therapeutic use
dating back 170 years ago when it was used to reverse a wide
variety of illnesses -- from minor ones like colds and flu to
serious ones like cholera and malaria. It has even been used to
help stop the Spanish Flu of 1918.
Over the past 70 years, this safe, inexpensive and powerful
healing modality has been administered by an estimated 15,000
European doctors, naturopaths and homeopaths to more than 10
million patients to successfully treat practically every known
disease. The natural remedy can be self-administered at home in
less than a minute, and costs only 1-1/2 cents a day to use.
