For the first time in world history, we've been following a live broadcast of every single evolution of this virus. The reports that are being issued by the World Health Organization are reassuring. Except for countries like Mexico and Argentina where the incidence of death has been relatively high, all other countries ( including Chile, to give a geographical comparison) have had a death rate which was less than or equal to that of common seasonal flus.
This is a slow form of virus, just like the others. Its symptoms are in all ways similar to those of a common seasonal flu. It may give rise to some greater intestinal disturbances, but it's quite similar to the usual influenza and as such we can use the following simple prevention measures:
1) Healthy diet and lifestyle. Consumption of fruit and vegetables in abundance, regular practice of physical activity and adequate sleep are some of the most effective natural means for keeping your immune system in top working order.
2) Preventive dietary supplements. Zinc, Copper, Selenium, Manganese and Vitamin C, together with natural antiviral remedies like Oscillococcinum 200K (always recommended on our site for winter prevention) are even in this case the best means of prevention and therapy that we have, without negative side-effects.
3) Awareness of the scientific facts. The continuous bombardment from the news media is promoting the concept that this virus must be treated with specific drugs. On the contrary, as the WHO's vaccination advisors in Geneva reminded us several days ago (July 13), this flu form is self-restricting and passes on its own.
Therefore there's no need for Oseltamivir or Tamiflu (drugs that are generating considerable popularity on the stock market). Even though they are being passed off as the only effective medicines, we are also being told at the same time that they ineffective in preventing contagion.
Personally, I recommend that people who vacation in areas where it's easy to come into contact with the virus (colleges, work seminars, etc.) use a simple prevention treatment in the form of 1 or 2 daily does of Oximix 1+, a daily supplement of Vitamin C (1-2 doses of Selenium, Vitamin C, Ester C, Cellfood Vitamin C) and the usual weekly prevention dose of Oscillococcinum 200K. Take along some Copper, Gold, Silver (3-4 doses for 3-4 days) to be used in case of cold forms. These are the same recommendations that we would have made last year for cold prevention, regardless of the season.
Speaking of last year and vaccines, no less than 7 months ago virologists the world over were anxiously preparing a triple vaccine for the upcoming winter flu that would obviously have been disastrous and devastating (which it WASN'T).
Today it seems that everyone is trying to invent a preventive vaccine against the H1N1 flu, although people should remember that the most serious side -effects caused by a flu vaccine date back to 1977 when scientists tried to find a vaccine for a similar swine flu that was breaking out at the time. The incidence of neurological damage among people who had been vaccinated was considerable. .
It might be a good idea to use more caution in advising people to take a vaccine whose "brother" caused more harm than the illness that it was supposed to prevent...
