" BIRD  FLU  ---  PROPHYLAXIS  --- or ---  PROFITAXES " 
Do you know that " WW.I. bird flu " was re-discovered in Vietnam 9 years ago?

Do you know that barely 100 people have died from it worldwide in all  that time?

Do you know that it was the Americans who alerted us to the efficacy  of the
human antiviral TAMIFLU as a preventative ?

Do you know that TAMIFLU barely alleviates some symptoms of the common flu?

Do you know that its efficacy against the common flu is questioned by a great
portion of the scientific community ?

Do you know that against a SUPPOSED mutant virus such as H5N1 , TAMIFLU 
barely alleviates the illness ?

Do you know that to date Avian Flu predominantly affects birds only?

Do you know who markets TAMIFLU? ROCHE LABORATORIES.

Do you know who bought the patent for TAMIFLU from ROCHE LABORATORIES in 1996?
GILEAD SCIENCES INC.

Do you know who was the then president of GILEAD SCIENCES INC. and  remains
a major shareholder? DONALD RUMSFELD, the present Secretary of Defence of the USA.

Do you know that sales of TAMIFLU were over $254 million in 2004 and more
than $1000 million in 2005 ?

Do you know how many more millions ROCHE can earn in the coming months
if the business of  " Medi-Scare "  fear continues ? 
               
       So the summary of the story is as follows:
       ----------------------------------------

Bush's friends decide that the medicine TAMIFLU is the solution for a  pandemic that
has not yet occurred and that has caused a hundred deaths worldwide in 9 years .

This medicine doesn't so much as cure the common flu.

In normal conditions the  Avian Flu virus does not affect humans.

Rumsfeld sells the patent for TAMIFLU to ROCHE for which they pay him  a fortune.
Roche acquires 90% of  the global production of crushed aniseed, the  base for the
antivirus .

The governments of the entire world threaten a pandemic and then buy  industrial
quantities of the product from Roche.

So we end up paying for medicine while Rumsfeld, Cheney and Bush do  the business.
