It's time to be more transparent, and this process begins with the release of sequences and updated epidemiological reports on the situation.

The H1N1 flu vaccine is not effective
April 12, 2011

With eight days behind the state Health Department Lara confirms the relationship between the death of a female on 31 March and the H1N1 virus. The lady lived in the town Jiménez and attended a health center, the day of his death, symptoms associated with influenza.
At the time of his death was a suspected case and was confirmed April 8 that his death was caused by this disease.

Another case involving the issue occurred on Friday April 8 when a young man was admitted to the surgical unit "Lions" and was taken to the intensive care unit for complications that occurred following the implementation of the vaccine, "says doctor preferred to reserve their identity.

Puntomedionoticias.com was given the task of gathering information about the disease for the third year that keeps us awake to the Venezuelans, and this was found.

In the preliminary report issued on March 10, 2011 in Geneva by a group of scientists charged with evaluating the management of the World Health Organization (WHO) pandemic influenza A, is disclosed that is recognized and there are certain actions or omissions by the WHO that "fed" the confusion and suspicion, while questioning his "lack of force" in responding to criticism that he did (WHO), Efe reported.

"The vaccine takes effect within 15 days and therefore the alarm is still present at that time and so the individual can get" Dr. Edgar Rivera, Director of Epidemiology of the state of Lara.

Dr. Edgar Rivera Audio


"The effectiveness of the vaccine is 50 to 70 percent," said Wednesday 6 April to VTR Regional Health Director Mary Moreno.

"In most cases only half of those vaccinated will develop antibodies because the vaccine is not 100 percent effective. Perhaps because they are new, or live virus. " Francisco Arocha, infectious disease specialist and professor at the Faculty of Medicine, University of Zulia.

These are just two of several statements on the denial of the efficacy of injection. To Arocha the fact that the influenza A H1N1 virus in the news again in the country is no reason to wonder because since 2009, never left. "The virus" A "here to stay and will from time to time epidemics in the world, because as born of a pig and the animal reservoir, the virus passed to humans and get infected."

The doctors consulted told us that this is a vaccine for seasonal flu in all countries round the world, and has not yet created a vaccine for the H1N1 strain, which is why the trivalent doses given to the people of Venezuela is a composed of three dead viruses that were isolated and inactivated to form the Vaxigrip vaccine.

The strains that make the vaccine are: a california/7/2009/h1 n1, n2 and B/Brisbane/60/2008 A Perth/16/2009/h3, because they always do with the strain of the previous year, but in no when the effectiveness is 100% and that is why it takes between 15 days for the individual is fully immunized, says Arocha.

The vaccine does not work


Several versions say that it aims to create a laboratory where disease prevalence is the purchase of the product to big pharmaceutical companies to meet a few, says President of the Commission for the analysis of German drugs Gert Wagner.

But he is not the only thing is to keep that version on the television program "Counter Strike" which is broadcast by Venezolana de Television VTV, Venezuela's official channel of the statements given and Sister Teresa Forcada doctor that explained that this virus "A "is part of the seasonal virus that occur every year in the world that the only thing new is the strain, but behind him there are more interests and foundation for this explanation, according Forcada, is that the drug has not been tested enough in humans and it is determined that is a generalized risk to the population.



It is important to note that the date according to figures from the Health Minister Eugenia Sader 1556 are confirmed cases of flu in the country and that the outbreak is controlled. However, despite the large number of Venezuelans who have been vaccinated threat still exists in the population.

How it all began


Going back to the beginning we find that the first information that is known worldwide media attention on this disease was when the U.S. government began an unprecedented system of alarm about the flu, "new" which affected, called H1N1.

Then they began to know about its origins and where it came from and found that this is a highly contagious respiratory disease of pigs suffering. It produces one of the many influenza viruses type A that exist, the mortality rate among humans, however, is low (between 1% and 4%), the disease is spread by direct contact with animals carrying, whose immune system is very similar to humans, information from the website of the OMS.Y from that time was called the media began to call the swine flu.

But not until April 25, 2009 which is held the first meeting of the Emergency Committee of the World Health Organization when it responds to cases of swine influenza A/H1N1 in the alarming deaths reported in Mexico and the United USA.

Since then the world's eyes turned to the flu, "new" that was circulating and affected humans. However, recent reports have shown that influenza A is not new but only one strain, it affirms the sister teresa Forcada, medical and driving on advertising the "new disease laboratory"

If you need to verify the information provided in this paper reviews the following link:

The Committee, composed of international experts in various disciplines, has been established in accordance with International Health Regulations (2005).

Teresa Forcades, author of "Crimes of the big drug companies" and "feminist theology of history" in the video expresses concern that governments can declare mandatory H1N1 flu vaccine because, among other things, to ignorance about side effects.
