In the midst of a plethora of unqualified news regarding the swine flu and the success of my post on Steve Jobs’ Health I thought I should share my thoughts on that topic as well.
First of all, this entire media-hyped scenario of fear and death is absurd. Am I the only one who sees a connection – in terms of media – to the SARS Coronavirus, where 150 people died in 2003?! It is absolutely stunning that all of a sudden certain people tend to compare lifestyle, environmental status and health-related status between two totally oposing parts of the world.
Roche, which licenses/produces Tamiflu or Relenza, which are both part of the neuraminidase inhibitor family, are very effective and selective treatment options for viral Infections, such as SARS and… the Swine flu. Austria for example has ordererd tons and tons of Tamiflu in order to protect the entire population, furthermore millions of face masks that don’t make any sense at all because viruses are among the smallest organisms and can therefore easily pass such face masks. Yes, there are certain resistances for current neuraminidase inhibitors, but comparable to other problems with face on the planet they are negligable.
Tamiflu – 19,00 $
Face masks – 45,00 $
Doctors being paid a sh*t load of money in order to push Tamiflu and Face masks – Priceless
