the FLU...new CDC report....widespread FLU..bush* does NOTHING (links)

[diamond14]

bush* only delivered HALF THE VACCINE for the FLU this year....then bush* appeared on TV and told Americans to SACRIFICE for others and DON'T GET THE FLU VACCINE, in fact, bush* claimed that he himself would sacrifice and NOT get the VACCINE....

now, more FLU Vaccine has become available, but bush* is NOWHERE to be seen on National TV, AWOL again,, showing no effort to FIX the mess he made.....many will DIE from the FLU this year...the FLU causes PNEUMONIA, leading to DEATH....

---------------------------------------------------------

http://www.cdc.gov
look at this 'color-coded' alert systems developed like homeland security...deceptive for certain, lacking any real numbers on DEATHS and Hospitalizations for FLU, hiding DEATHS behind statistical manipulation, like all bushites do, created to confuse and very unclear....but definitely SPREADING and FLU at epidemic levels in the NorthEast.....


----------------------------------------------------

All over America, TWELVE STATES moved up a whole step, on the 'color-coded' chart...bush* death progrom marches through America....over 40 MILLION Americans have NO HEALTH INSURANCE under bush*....this is a slow-motion CATASTROPHY under bush*...."homeland security", anyone???

2. It is very confusing. For some reason, I'd have thought yellow

was somewhere closer to red, and green somewhere closer to "no activity", but that's just me. From the site, here's what the conditions mean:


No Activity: No laboratory-confirmed cases of influenza and no reported increase in the number of cases of ILI.

Sporadic: Small numbers of laboratory-confirmed influenza cases or a single influenza outbreak has been reported, but there is no increase in cases of ILI.

Local: Outbreaks of influenza or increases in ILI cases and recent laboratory-confirmed influenza in a single region of the state.

Regional: Outbreaks of influenza or increases in ILI and recent laboratory confirmed influenza in at least 2 but less than half the regions of the state.

Widespread: Outbreaks of influenza or increases in ILI cases and recent laboratory-confirmed influenza in at least half the regions of the state.

4. you forgot California: WHITE...NO REPORT !!!!

and what is a "region of the state"? is that something like a gerrymandered Congressional District?.....what about Idaho? how many REGIONS are in that state?, more than Delaware??


what's an ILI????

--------------------------------------------

(last posted on CDC web site on December 16, 2004...when 713 Americans DIED in ONE WEEK from the FLU/PNEUMONIA....THOSE numbers are not reported anywhere on the CDC web site anymore...if you find those, please post)...

THE BIG QUESTION:
HOW MANY AMERICANS are KILLED FROM THE FLU, everyday, all across America???
