Swine flu pandemic has begun - WHO says it decided to raise the pandemic alert level from phase 5 to 6
WHO: Swine flu pandemic has begun, 1st in 41 years
35 minutes ago
GENEVA (AP) — The World Health Organization has told its member nations it is declaring a swine flu pandemic — the first global flu epidemic in 41 years.
The move came Thursday as infections climbed in the United States, Europe, Australia, South America and elsewhere.
In a statement sent to member countries, WHO says it decided to raise the pandemic alert level from phase 5 to 6, meaning that a global outbreak of swine flu has begun. The decision was made after the U.N. health agency held an emergency meeting on swine flu with its experts.
GENEVA (AP) — The World Health Organization held an emergency swine flu meeting Thursday and was likely to declare the first flu pandemic in 41 years as infections climbed in the United States, Europe, Australia, South America and elsewhere.
Health officials from Scotland, Indonesia and Thailand said the agency would declare a swine flu pandemic — a global epidemic — on Thursday after a teleconference with leading flu experts. Officials at U.N. missions in Geneva also said they expected the imminent announcement of a pandemic.
WHO spokesman Thomas Abraham said only that the emergency meeting began at noon in Geneva and WHO member nations would be informed of the result. WHO Director-General Margaret Chan was holding a press conference at 6 p.m. (1600 GMT, noon EDT).
"It is likely in light of sustained community transmission in countries outside of North America — most notably in Australia — that level 6 will be declared," Scotland's Health Secretary Nicola Sturgeon told Scottish lawmakers, adding it would be Thursday.
Indonesian health minister Siti Fadilah Supari said she had been notified by WHO that "today will be declared to be phase 6."
Phase 6 is WHO's highest alert level and means that a swine flu pandemic is under way. The last pandemic — the Hong Kong flu of 1968 — killed about 1 million people. Ordinary flu kills about 250,000 to 500,000 people each year.
Since the new flu strain — dubbed A(H1N1) — first emerged in Mexico and the United States in April, it has spread to 74 countries around the globe. On Wednesday, WHO reported 27,737 cases including 141 deaths. The agency has stressed that most cases are mild and require no treatment, but the fear is that a rash of new infections could overwhelm hospitals and health authorities — especially in poorer countries.
The long-awaited pandemic announcement is scientific confirmation that a new flu virus has emerged and is quickly circling the globe. It will trigger drugmakers to speed up production of a swine flu vaccine and prompt governments to devote more money to containing the virus.
In May, several countries urged WHO not to declare a pandemic, fearing it would spark mass panic.
Fear has already gripped Argentina, where so many people worried about swine flu flooded into hospitals this week that emergency health services in the capital have collapsed. Last month, a bus arriving in Argentina from Chile was stoned by people who thought a passenger on it had swine flu. Chile has the most swine flu cases in South America.
In Hong Kong, the government on Thursday ordered all kindergartens and primary schools closed for two weeks after a dozen students tested positive for swine flu.
In Australia, swine flu cases jumped to more than 1,000 on Monday and reached 1,260 by late Wednesday.
WHO says its pandemic announcement would not mean the situation was worsening, since no mutations have been detected in the virus to show it is getting more deadly.
In Edinburgh, Sturgeon told lawmakers that a WHO announcement means countries should immediately activate their pandemic plans.
"A move to level 6 is not a verdict on the severity of the virus," she said. "It simply means that the extent of global spread now fulfills the definition of a pandemic."

Their stated intent is the worst! Under the paragraph heading “Use of live vaccines”
Drs Wood and Robertson were ASKED their OPINION on PRIMING the POPULATION for a PANDEMIC USING LIVE VACCINES and if they consider it to be a good idea. However the timing is critical; if LIVE H5N1 VACCINES are used now it would be CONSIDERED too DANGEROUS,but IF a PANDEMIC is IMMINENT the RISK may be JUSTIFIED. A STOCKPILE OF LIVE VACCINES,with the cleavage site removed,could be USED to PRIME the POPULATION IN ADVANCE of the PANDEMIC REACHING the UK. Even without an exact match in virus strain, it is predicted that this would provide a broad immunity to the population.
THERE YOU HAVE THEIR STATED INTENTIONS!!! Releasing every little nasty bug they have on the public to “PRIME” them for coming big pandemic. And have they provided themselves with the stated justification for this procedure??? Mainly emminent pandemic?

Summary of oral evidence: Dr John Wood and Dr James Robertson, National Institute for Biological Standards and Control (NIBSC) 27 April 2006
Dr John Wood and Dr James Robertson are Principal Scientists in the Division of Virology at NIBSC. Dr Wood and Dr Robertson lead the NIBSC’s influenza group and their responsibilities include the control and standardisation of influenza vaccines. On behalf of the World Health Organisation (WHO) the NIBSC is involved in the serological testing of vaccine trials; the PREPARATION and DISTRIBUTION of INFLUENZA VIRUSES TO VACCINE MANUFACTURERS; and the COORDINATION of EU STRAIN SELECTION PROCESSES.
That’s right folks , Dr James and co. grow/collect/and control influenza virus strains for vaccine makers , we told you the vaccine WAS the sickness! They do this for WHO (On behalf of W.H.O.) and coordinate the spreading of sickness (strain selection process) in europe. But since they CONTROL all strains, any other strain selection process being carried out globally would have to approach Dr Robertson for any specimen samples! Another reason this is done is for them to test systems and force investment and fear based control and profit. Could it be they COORDINATED with Baxter U.S. to send the Avian flu to those 18 labs in Europe ??? Thank Jehovah the lab in Czechislovakia tested on ferrets and discovered they had been killed by “LIVE AVIAN”! http://www.naturalnews.com/025760.html%20

forced innocculations-vaccinations, forced quarentine, and execution to avoid spread!
Now remember...these's people's enemies are THEIR CREATONS...IMAGINARY...MADE UP....
and so will their excuse to start pushing this....
the viruses are free, the vaccins are poisoned and stacked and paid for. The system and infrastucture is here...as Alex has shown us! And elsewhere...
There's more than 1 thing planned, more than just THIS THING.....
but according to the executive order.... it will only take 1 THING...OUT OF ALL OR ANY....and it DOESN'T EVEN HAVE TO BE REAL !
I'll remain calm as a bomb and watch...guard..stand ready.......

Thanks for posting this info, I have not been posting any information on my site about this because I feel like the numbers speak for them selves has brother David L O'Connor said. But I also agree to be prepared but to also be conscious of these tactics a global vaccination program would make billions for big pharma, but if they use the vaccination program to spread more of the H1N1 or a new concoction they created while everyone is trying to make H1N1 vaccines then the profit could go into the trillions so brothers and sisters be on guard and do all you can to keep all that will listen safe, KEEP SWINGING PEOPLE!!!!
Thanks again for the post J...
