Avian Flu Talk Speaks Out Against World Health Organization

 

 

Download this press release as an Adobe PDF document.

 

 

Avian Flu Talk recently created a very popular H5N1 bird flu discussion forum that is in the midst of capturing the world’s attention as people from all walks of life continue to join this new forum. It has already logged in approximately 350 members in only 90 days since its inception.

(PRWEB via PR Web Direct) February 3, 2006 -- Avian Flu Talk recently created a very popular H5N1 bird flu discussion forum that is in the midst of capturing the world’s attention as people from all walks of life continue to join this new forum. It has already logged in approximately 350 members in only 90 days since its inception.

One topic on this new forum that has raised a lot of attention is with regard to the members criticizing The World Health Organization for its alleged unwillingness to provide updates to situations regarding current outbreaks.

“It’s apparent that we get very few updates regarding patient conditions as well as new suspected cases,” said Ryan Evans, founder of the forum. “The lack of current information that is being provided by the WHO seems to add to the overall tension of the situation among our forum members,” he said. Evans fears that because the H5N1 super virus has an incubation period that ranges between 3 – 17 days, the virus may have a chance to mutate and spread around the world before the public realizes that it has changed into a form that can now be easily spread among humans. “Any delays by the WHO in providing current updates to the situation will only add to the tension on our discussion forum,” Evans said.

Avian Flu Talk also recently announced the launch of its new forum on the site that is specifically designed to provide educational preparedness for the impending superflu pandemic. “The site has become a community of people who are collectively working to together to achieve goals in the fight against the pandemic threat,” Evans said. It is very unique to see a forum in which the members truly care about one another and who are working side by side to discuss ways to best prepare for a bird flu pandemic.”

The Avian Flu Talk forum is clearly emerging as a leader among worldwide groups who are expressing a need for pandemic preparedness. Whether you are seeking current information regarding the avian bird flu , or if you are seeking moral support and you would like to discuss your concerns about this situation, this new forum appears to be the place to visit.

For those who are interested in visiting this exciting new forum, go to: www.AvianFluTalk.com.

I wonder how many hits resulted from Google trolling up the Stephen King reference and directing traffic here. I prefer to read his books rather than be a character in them. At least with the book I can put it down.

Well, I just googled that, and unfortunately you are right that it seems  "bird flu=The Stand" to a lot of people.  But do you think that accounts for today's heavy traffic? 

If this story gets picked up from here, IMO it will be because many more people than us are becoming increasingly uncomfortable with the WHO's handling of this situation.

Thanks Albert. 

Now we will all be scaned by the UN and they will search the site and find me. Here' comes the world police.

They're probably gonna take our shot cards from us and "No soup for you. " when it comes time for test vaccines.  They probably also took us off the alert list about the pandemic to  level 5 (We should already be on 4 if they followed their own rules. We already have multiple outbreaks over 1/3 of the planet)

Hit squads will be at our door. I'm altering my profile on the forum to read "Chinese Biological Wepond Developer", living in the Suschian Region. They'll never look for me there.

Joe we've be had.

I figure they are a bunch of Kopi Annan's relatives. The same ones that ran the Iraq Oil for food program. Their chief advisors are from Halburton and getting lobby money from the casket industry. We can take them but well have to act really stupid so that we can think like them.

Used to sing in the Church Choir when we went to Community Bible Church.  Funny, they haven't asked me to do so for years now.  Suppose they are trying to tell me something?


Actually, we changed churches years ago, and the one we go to (Maranatha) uses professional singers.  I sure miss singing.  Even an old basso profundo can still hit a few low notes.

WHAT Health Organization Speaks Out Against Avian Flu Talk

 

Download this press release as an Adobe PDF document.

 

Avian Flu Talk members are in the midst of being captured as the WHAT continues to destroy this new forum. It has already aprehended  approximately 350 members in only 90 days since its inception.

One topic on this  forum  criticizes The WHAT (Wimps Helpless Aganist Tattle Tales) for its alleged unwillingness to provide updates to situations regarding current outbreaks.

"That's not fair. We have racked up a lot of frequent flyer miles and even helped spread the desiese by letting reporters go into contaminated areas." says it's director. "Look at this handy pocket calculator I got from the airlines. I use it to count dead people. Pretty neat hugh?"

"They are just a bunch of rifraff, hoarding all the supplies and a danger to the community." says the director. "We recently got 3 million doses of Tamiflu as a donation and I only kept enough for my family and friends."

The groups ring leader is still at large, belived to be hiding out in a local storage shed with 1000 rolls of toilet paper and 2000 packs of Ramien Noodles. "It's just a matter of time before we find him," says the director. "He might have all that food but without ketchup he won't last long and you can't have all that tissue without creating a paper trail. We'll find him."

"I thought it was Forum about Frankie Avalon not Avian." says aka Corn. "I like birds. Here, you want to play a game of Catch the Dead Chicken Head."

Joe,Shopie-Z, Muskrat, Mewee and TnBone were also captured after lengthly searches. "We have found their one weekness is thier inability to stay away from Costco's and Sams Clubs.  We hang out by the latex glove section in the store pretending to eat Zinc losenges and wait...When we see someone buying a box of gloves, wammo, we know its them!"

These members will be sent for deprograming and enlisted to help in the Flu fight."We'll probably use them to test vaccines or place them among poultry to see if they have the flu." It's called "Chinese Testing."

"We have done a lot of good ." says the director. "We recently ran the virus out of Turkey and now just all Turkeys neighbors have the disease." Turkey is a perfect example of what WHAT can do and is capabile of!"

"I'm just glad we have these trouble makers on the run. Everybody knows there is no risk from bird flu killing more than a few million people or so. WHO cares?"

LMAO.  Im gonna have to change my signature to read, "I thought I was paranoid until I met Corn, now I'm just under-drugged."
I'm not afraid, I'm paranoid. Dont talk too loud, they are listening.

OMG!  Corn you should be ashamed of yourself! 

That was SOOOOOO cool!  They got me with that data mining trick of theirs.  I guess my Google searches on "WHO'S the moron" ticked em off.  But don't worry, I didn't give them any information about the TP stashes or ammo bunkers.  They told me that my fingernails will grow back lickety-split.
