Hello , my oldest daughter lives in TX and has an 18mth old baby, she called her ped. today and they told her that even though baby had flu shot still needed swine flu shot, however, it wouldnt prevent swine flu. But, could shorten illness and recoup time. In TX they are already having shot clinics. I live in OK and havent had much luck finding out if my youngest can get a swine flu shot yet. Any info on the shot would be much appreciated.

From what I understand there is NO vaccination for this strain of flu. I have no idea what they are giving people and claiming is a vaccination.

I also agree with an above poster that millions get the flu each year & have complications including death.

I think going the Natural route is your best bet for staying healthy.

Look at some of the people that are sick & dieing, they may not have been eating healthy to start with. They are also at an age group that have been part of the vaccine & antibiotics craze.

I am betting that Mexico also has not given out all their info so, no other countries stop trade or visits and damage their economy. In fact, how will anyone know how many people have had this flu and just never knew?

As this flu spreads it can kill the economy - except for the big Pharma companies that are raking in the money as they pass off fear and fake fixes.

I have been very careful, also asking my boys to wash their hands etc. (like they will actually do it..right). I have been getting enough sleep and have been going to the gym on a regular basis. My last day of workout was yesterday, felt great but had what I thought were common allergy symptoms. Started feeling weird last night, and today I am sick in bed (all flu symptoms except no fever). I'm trying to keep my kids away from me. Since there are no swine flu cases in my area, the doc office told me not to come in unless I am running a fever. BTW- last Sunday some guy next to me on the treadmill kept sneezing and never even covered his mouth/nose. Bottom line, if you're going to get sick it will happen. I haven't been sick in a long time, so this is very unusual.

momwithboys,
I hope you get to feeling better. You were saying that you haven't been sick in a long time, your immune system should be up where you will be able to fight off this flu.Elderberry has been shown very effective in halting the advancement of the flu. To prevent flu from others, Defense Maitenance or THIM-J have been recommended to take to prevent. Liquid ALJ and VSC is recommended if you already have the flu, one bottle of each in 24 hours. With you not getting sick that often that is a great sign that your immune system is strong! Get well soon!

I TOTALLY agree with you, Margait!!!

I agree with keeping your immune system built up. For me and my family that looks like in addition to making sure we take our daily supplements, it's also limiting the amount of SUGAR, caffeine and processed foods and white flour/grains. These are known to lower the body's immunity to disease (read 'Sugar Blues'). Get plenty of rest, eat your fruits and vegi's, and drink water.

Also ready Jay Gordon's tweet, RT @JayGordonMDFAAP (famous pediatrician I highly respect) - 'Please, please, please do not buy into the Swine Flu hype. And don't buy Rumsfeld's Tamiflu: http://tinyurl.com/zogma' You can follow him for more info re: the flu.

I understand that 2 - 3 Tablespoons/day of coconut oil will work very well specifically for this swine flu.

Healthy blessings!

I heard today that people in the U.S. are not dying from the swine flu, that by the time it got here it was weakend. I also understand that it is affecting people between the age of 20 and 40, so far.
Colostrum,Silver Shield,olive leaf extract, coconut oil, oreganol and elderberry are a few immune enhancers.
I use coconut oil and oreganol all the time.

For perspective, I recommend this 3 min clip by Dr. Paul on the Swine Flu -

Just for perspective- Does anyone have any idea how many people die each year from the flu? We have vaccination available-some of those that get sick took the vaccination and some didn't. The flu season of 2003-2004 the CDC missed on the vaccination. Very bad flu year. Do you know how many people get the flu every year? Millions. Tens of thousands die each year from the flu. What is making this unique is it is a new strain. Just keep all this information in mind. By all means be careful but don't stop living your life. Do what you do everyday- wash your hands!!Get plenty of rest! The news is making me crazy. They are not any different than any other show-after ratings. You have to be able to weed through the hype to get the news.

I was reading about this in the newspaper today. It sounds like it wouldn't be a bad time to get emergency plans in place and be sure we have well-stocked households. We don't have to panic, but we can be prepared.

Widespread illness could really wreak havoc on the economy, couldn't it?

Thanks for the post minnermom, if we start preparing now, when the fall comes, and the flu season kicks in, our immune systems should be ready. Having extra stock in our homes would be to our advantage.

Feel free to add your comments to my blog.
I have posted recipes for using Silver Shield in your home to prevent bacteria, flu, fungus and mold.
Did you know that your vaccum cleaner holds alot of bacteria? Vaccuming up dead tissue cells in your carpet, the vaccum cleaner is full of germs. Sanatizing is a must to keep away airborne invaders.

Natural Health for Hard Times!
Prepare for Fall, when the flu could mutate.

What if a pandemic really happen and you were stuck in your house? Don't go out unless absolutely necessary. You want to be prepared so you don't have to go out to a doctor. Start practicing now, don't wait for a crisis. Your greastest defense is your state of mind! Think ahead. Does your body make a good host for micro organisms? Keep your body tune-up. Put the proper nutrients in your body. Greens are an important food to have in your diet, greens keep the oxygen levels up, this is important. Your first line of defense is your gut, use probiotics to keep your gut in check, if you have alot of stress take nutri-calm or stress relief. If you wake up in the middle of the night and someone is sick in your home, spray with silver shield or use lemon or grapefruit essential oil for sterlizing.
