Continued from page 21 – Epidemic in AfricaBermejo's research supports a different study released inJuly which concluded that the virus was spreading amonggorilla groups, rather than from humans to apes. "Ourwork is complementary to that -- we have shown it isspreading between groups," Walsh said."The issue here is that there is a certain amount of workthat needs to be done to take these vaccines that alreadyexist and put them into gorillas," Walsh said. "The pricetag on that is a couple of million bucks." He is hoping forcontributions from wealthy donors.amb/Reuters/APhttp://www.spiegel.de/international/0,1518,453323,00.html☻☻☻☻☻☻☻Was the 'Spanish Flu'Epidemic Man-Made?Sixty Million Dead In 1918-19By Henry Makow PhDDecember 2, 2006In 1948 Heinrich Mueller, the former head of theGestapo, told his CIA interrogator that the mostdevastating plague in human history was man-made.He was referring to the influenza pandemic of 1918-1919that infected 20% of the world's population and killedbetween 60 and 100 million people. This is roughly 3times as many as were killed and wounded in World WarOne, and is comparable to WWII losses, yet this modernplague has disappeared down the memory hole.Mueller said the flu started as a US army bacteriologicalwarfare weapon that somehow infected US army ranks atCamp Riley KS in March 1918, and spread around theworld.http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/amex/influenza/peopleevents/pandeAMEX86.htmlHe says that it "got out of control" but we cannot discountthe horrible possibility that the "Spanish Flu" was adeliberate elite depopulation measure, and that it could beused again. Researchers have found connections betweenit and the current "Bird Flu."http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/4308872.stm%20There was nothing "Spanish" about this flu. According toWikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanish_flu%20"In the U.S., about 28% of the population suffered, and500,000 to 675,000 died. In Britain 200,000 died; in Francemore than 400,000. Entire villages perished in Alaska andsouthern Africa. In Australia an estimated 10,000 peopledied and in the Fiji Islands, 14% of the population diedduring only two weeks, and in Western Samoa 22%. Anestimated 17 million died in India, about 5% of India'spopulation at the time. In the Indian Army, almost 22% oftroops who caught the disease died of it.""Indeed, symptoms in 1918 were so unusual that initiallyinfluenza was misdiagnosed as dengue, cholera, or typhoid.One observer wrote, "One of the most striking of thecomplications was hemorrhage from mucous membranes,especially from the nose, stomach, and intestine. Bleedingfrom the ears and petechial hemorrhages in the skin alsooccurred. ...Another unusual feature of this pandemic wasthat it mostly killed young adults, with 99% of pandemicinfluenza deaths occurring in people under 65 and morethan half in young adults 20 to 40 years old. This isunusualsince influenza is normally most deadly to the very young(under age 2) and the very old (over age 70).”MUELLER'S SOURCEAt a 1944 Nazi bacteriological warfare conference inBerlin, General Walter Schreiber, Chief of the MedicalCorps of the German Army told Mueller that he had spenttwo months in the US in 1927 conferring with hiscounterparts. They told him that the "so-called double blowvirus" (i.e. Spanish Flu) was developed and used during the1914 war."But," according to Mueller, "it got out of control andinstead of killing the Germans who had surrendered bythen, it turned back on you, and nearly everybody else."("Gestapo Chief: The 1948 CIA Interrogation of HeinrichMueller" Vol. 2 by Gregory Douglas, p. 106) (Actually theArmistice didn't take place until August 11, 1918.)The interrogator, James Kronthal, the CIA Bern StationChief asked Mueller to explain "double blow virus." Itreminds me of AIDS.Mueller: "I am not a doctor, you understand, but the'double-blow' referred to a virus, or actually a pair of themthat worked like a prize fighter. The first blow attacked theimmune system and made the victim susceptible, fatally so,to the second blow which was a form of pneumonia...[Schreiber told me] a British scientist actually developedit...Now you see why such things are insanity. These thingscan alter themselves and what starts out as a limited thingcan change into something really terrible."The subject of the Spanish Flu arose in the context of adiscussion of typhus.
