Baxter working on vaccine to stop swine flu, though admitted sending live pandemic flu viruses to subcontractor
By Lori Price, www.legitgov.org 26 Apr 2009
The OMFG moment of the century: Illinois-based Baxter working on vaccine to 'stop' swine flu outbreak in Mexico 25 Apr 2009 Specialty drug maker Baxter International Inc. will work with the World Health Organization to develop a vaccine that could stem [foment] an outbreak of a deadly swine flu strain in Mexico. Baxter spokesman Christopher Bona said Saturday that the Deerfield, Ill.-based company has asked the WHO for a sample of the flu strain. He says Baxter has patented technology that allows the company to develop vaccines in half the time it usually takes -- about 13 weeks instead of 26. [Is Baxter International taking a page from the Blackwater playbook? Just as Blackwater/Xe keep on killing to justify their multi-billion dollar contracts to provide 'security' in Iraq and Afghanistan, Baxter International is poised to make *billions* to vaccinate people against their pandemic.]
Are you ready? Wait for it...
Virus mix-up by lab could have resulted in pandemic [Uh, it apparently f*cking *did.*] 06 Mar 2009 It's emerged that virulent H5N1 bird flu was sent out by accident from an Austrian lab [the Austrian branch of US vaccine company, Baxter] last year and given to ferrets in the Czech Republic before anyone realised. As well as the risk of it escaping into the wild, the H5N1 got mixed with a human strain, which might have spawned a hybrid that could unleash a pandemic.
'This was infected with a bird flu virus.' Viral Pandemic H5N1 flu threat: Illinois-based Baxter contaminates European labs by error 25 Feb 2009 According to the scientific network PROMED, Baxter International Inc. in Austria "unintentionally contaminated samples with the bird flu virus that were used in laboratories in 3 neighboring countries, raising concern about the potential spread of the deadly disease". As PROMED reports, the contamination has been discovered when ferrets at a laboratory in the Czech Republic died after being inoculated with vaccine made from the samples early this month. "The material came from Deerfield, Illinois-based Baxter, which reported the incident to the Austrian Ministry of Health, Sigrid Rosenberger, a ministry spokeswoman, said today in a telephone interview", the network-alert-system is quoting. "This was infected with a bird flu virus," Rosenberger said. "There were some people from the company who handled it."
'That mixing process, called reassortment, is one of two ways pandemic viruses are created.' Baxter admits sending live avian flu viruses to subcontractor --People familiar with biosecurity rules are dismayed by evidence that human H3N2 and avian H5N1 viruses somehow co-mingled [!] in the Orth-Donau facility. 27 Feb 2009 The company that released contaminated flu virus material from a plant in Austria confirmed Friday that the experimental product contained live H5N1 avian flu viruses. And an official of the World Health Organization's European operation said the body is closely monitoring the investigation into the events that took place at Baxter International's research facility in Orth-Donau, Austria.

Spectre of pandemic 26 Apr 2009 The new strain contains gene sequences from North American and Eurasian swine flus, North American bird flu and North American human flu, according to the US Centres for Disease Control and Prevention. Most of Mexico's dead were young, healthy adults, and none was aged older than 60 or or younger than three, the World Health Organisation said. This has alarmed health officials... Pandemic flus - like the 1918 Spanish flu and the 1957 and 1968 pandemics - often strike young, healthy people the hardest. Mexican officials promised a huge immunisation campaign in the capital this week. [The deadly vaccine program *ensures* a pandemic

this was no accident
+7Horrible! I heard about this when the flu was first announced. I felt right away the current flu is no naturally mutating virus. No telling what kind of things any of us have been given in vaccinations. I wish I had been as aware when my kids were in school. I hated them getting shots but schools wouldn't let them in without shots. But I seriously had no idea it could be as dangerous as it really was.
this has been planed for a while, and the H5N1 has been laced with Ebola, now that's a kicker if the shot some how does not kill you lets throw in a bit of a flesh eating disease for ya.
Swine flu has been around a long time. The best way to combat it is to take reasonable precautions. Stay away from crowds, wash your hands, and keep yourself in good shape.
Baxter: Product contained live bird flu virus

Send them to population, they will enjoy it there....LOL
To have this happen -- a number of things had to occur --
-- the Ho-Hum .. so here we go again 'sloppiness' of not caring to follow standard safety protocols to contain bio-hazardous materials ..
-- the fact that the supervisors and up the chain of command do not care to enforce those protocols or look the other way ...
-- that there were 'others' in the lab at the time who just are mixing things up -- not reading -- shipping and packaging and NOT checking the labels to see if they match what SHOULD really have been in the package (just blind pick up the item, put it in a box -- we don't care -- we're just the shippers) ..
-- opening the package and just not caring to check the invoice or inventory control packed inside
-- MIS-labelled sample .. or not reading it ..
-- blind injections -- because this is the vial and let's not even check.
-- using the same injection/needles to take samples from EACH of the vials (again -- against standard protocols designed to contain bio-hazardous materials for sure) ...
SLOPPINESS ... negligence .. lack of following basic protocols to ensure that bio-hazardous products are 'contained' ..
So .. al...

So .. all this is something that SHOULD be investigated .. looked at .. and yes, if it results in prosecution -- so be it at this time.
There is a general lack of quality in work, maybe even pride has been replace with nonchalance, there is a carelessness and sloppiness that is everywhere now.
I see it in my industry, there is no ethic left. Yes, there are people with ethic and that do great jobs and have enormous pride in their work however they are growing fewer and farther between and are no longer the norm. .
not shocked, not surprised.. nor will i accept any shot!
My children, now all in their 40's and 50's were immunized, there were no cases of polio in their time..I guess I have a strong reaction because I lost friends to a debilitating disease that was stopped, and now that disease is on the rise, so vaccinations, I am all for them. Flu shots, nope never had one and doubt if I ever will.. Go figure?
In my day and my kids time growing up, I believe the vaccines saved many lives, maybe even mine, now I have reservations about flu vaccines and some others as well.
I believe the smart thing to do is weigh each one separately. I know of cases where the vaccine actually killed the patient, however its a relatively small number.
There are hazards in everything, there are reactions in some to almost anything.
I am overwhelmed when I watch commercials about medications, lets say to help sneezing and itching eyes from common allergies.. Take this "medication" and you wont sneeze or have watery eyes.. However you may have dry mouth, itching skin, cold sores, blisters on your finger tips and sudden and prolonged hair loss, oh, and maybe even death! But how many really die? Loose their hair? A few out of millions. Good sense is what is needed and then its a personal choice for some vaccines and medications. For kids, don't put them and others at risk because you fear something may happen . Vaccines for diphtheria, yes, flu shots? That's a persons prerogative whether to get them or not. They maybe a good precaution for the very elderly or highly challenged immune systems, yep, the shot may be worse than the disease itself, but then, maybe not.
As for saving lives, as in all things nothing is perfect and the outcome will never be 100% positive.
The polio outbreak of my time was devastating, when they made it mandatory for kids to have the vaccine before entering school the numbers dropped greatly, there were very few cases in this country in the 70's and 80's..
As for what surfaces in adulthood and senior years, well, again, who knows.
A young man I knew had Hodgkins disease at 17, after surgery to remove the tumors he had massive doses of radiation to kill anything left, that was the standard treatment then, and now.
He died 10 years ago at 41 from an off shoot of that disease, Non Hodgkins Lymphoma ,the doctors said that the radiation that he had 20 odd years earlier was the reason the cancer came back. They say it happens a lot.
Point, he lived a good although short life. No one knew then it would kill him later, but he would either die then at 17 or live a while, happily and healthy.
I moved from Hawaii to Washington state, I was overwhelmed at the amount o...'

I moved from Hawaii to Washington state, I was overwhelmed at the amount of food born illness here, it was as if the kids here had no immune system at all. So I agree that if we can fight a disease or illness without drugs or vaccines, then I am all for it, if a vaccine will give life then that's another story. OK I babbled..
My children were all vaccinated for every childhood disease there was and they are fine, now 40's and 50's..Damn that makes me old, I hate saying their ages although they a great.. OK back to the topic..
I have never had a flu shot, and I don't intend to have this one either. I don't think they help.
I have only old knowledge and attitudes about vaccinations, traveling the world I have had shots to keep me from getting things, I guess they worked, I am well, and if they were dangerous I am still well so I am lucky.
I will certainly look deeper into this . You are right about people, it was a different world. Thank you for the comment
i guess they realy believe that all the rest of us are not as intelligent as they are???
wrong
think about it, what are the real chances of this happening all by its self in nature or a "controled" enviroment????
hes such a puppet
