The coach of hockey world champions Russia, Vyacheslav Bykov, has confirmed reports that the national team’s defender Oleg Tverdovsky has been diagnosed with swine flu.
Tatyana Golikova is absolutely correct. This is a press fear mongering. H1N1 has a lower mortality rate than seasonal flu. The vaccines are a joke and are more dangerous than the flu itself. As for Ukraine, their situation is interesting as there are rumors of a plague like lung disease that pratically liquefies the lungs. Could this be more fear during Presidential run up? There was a story about a Mossad agent saying they would release a contagion through the vaccines in Ukraine. He was arrested shortly after a radio address. I am curious how this hockey player contracted the flu. One thing is for sure Fear spreading is definitely an agenda.
