Die every year from seasonal flu complications because of the world up to half a million people. Relevant information, instead of scares people in the media today "seagripi" named H1N1 virus, which caused deaths have not yet even a couple of hundred.
Intimidation of dangerous human viruses began after 2,001th of 11 September terrorist attacks. Twin Towers after the collapse of America as they held a fear of anthrax letters, or containing antraksit. Cases might have to read the fingers of two hands, yet the fear came to Europe. Even in Estonia addressed postiümbrikus likely to arrive in the form of powder to counteract. So far, this is not precisely known in Fort Detriki uurimislaboris developed for military-type Ames katkupisiku distributor, since it is likely collided jälgedele FBI investigation that led to the CIA's action.
"Monstrous" SARS
SARS broke out in the autumn the world's roll flu-like virus scare. The first known outbreak was written in China Guangdong province 16th November 2002. Haigega contact with a doctor traveled to 21st February 2003, Hong Kong and its people exposed to the virus spread further through several Asian countries. Air and started a re-examination, but also metalliotsijaga degrees and they look gripisümptomeid. 26. May 2003 dailipress.com reference agency AP reported that the global total of 715 deaths and infected more than 8100 people. 23. May epideemiaoht was declared closed.
It is worth remembering that a normal year, died of influenza in at least 250 000 people or 684 people per day. Why scare people, so if the virus is well controlled and the control and the treatment is working half a year about the same proportion as the other viruses in one day? For example, 3 million die each year of AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria 1 million to 2 million people.
"Õudne" avian flu
2004th The outbreak of avian influenza-panic. This time it was awful keyword H5N1. It was soon soon-infect domestic poultry in Asia in addition to the millions who came to kill, even pre-emptively, even thousands of people. It is also followed by the screening at the airports for passengers, people with masks väljajagamine vaccines and pharmaceutical communications turulepaiskamisest.
The same intimidated influenza in 2005. and 2006. year.
Even in the Republic of Estonia was bought to control avian influenza drug Tamiflu, a roll-call. World Health Organization (WHO) recommended that countries establish ravimivaru for 20-40 percent of the population. 30. March 2006 notified the Postimees that the Republic of Estonia is a potential influenza pandemic in the event gripiravimit doses of Tamiflu stockpiled 3000, whose suitability for avian influenza control is questionable.
The only thing which is not followed in 2007. and 2008. was to a large number of linnugripijuhtumeid world. However, the media went all birds rändeajal linnugripiohust information.
WHO home data was 1 June 2009, died due to H5N1 avian influenza in 262 people worldwide and infected 432 people. The largest number of cases was 115/141, Indonesia, Vietnam, 56/111, 27/77, Egypt and China, 25/38. The remaining 11 countries other than where avian influenza had occurred, was 39 deaths and 65 infections. This five-year period.
"Üliohtlik" seagripp
However, the 2009th The spring was läbimurdeliseks influenza hirmutajatele However, because this time the disease is much closer to humans biologically species - domestic swine. Cycle repeated once again that the media have already played against: every week brought "rindeteateid" a dangerous virus. The first case occurred in California (USA) 30 March.
Even though Estonia is as important to know yourself, because after all came to us with quite a few people who were carriers of the exotic virus. But once again it is criminal to panic, because the virus spreads slowly and is subject to medication.
However, the WHO declared the 11th June seagripi A (H1N1) pandemic officially, although it was attributed only 141 deaths.
Fortunately, the economic crisis has not yet been described as in Estonia as "enthusiastic" if Spain, which has 4 million unemployed and the economy next kiratseva took the money to buy Tamiflu for 10 million people.
In summary - does not pay to believe gripipaanika distributors. They justify it just state ravimitootjale orders. Also, they are overshadowed by the economic themes to be addressed.
History of Evil
