Do you know that 'bird flu' was discovered in Vietnam 9 years ago?
Do you know that barely 100 people have died in the whole world in all that 
time?
Do you know that it was the Americans who alerted us to the efficacy of the 
human antiviral TAMIFLU as a preventative.
Do you know that TAMIFLU barely alleviates some symptoms of the common flu?
Do you know that its efficacy against the common flu is questioned by a 
great part of the scientific community?
Do you know that against a SUPPOSED mutant virus such as H5N1, TAMIFLU 
barely alleviates the illness?
Do you know that to date Avian Flu affects birds only?
Do you know who markets TAMIFLU?
ROCHE LABORATORIES.The governments of the entire world threaten a pandemic 
and then buy industrial quantities of the product from Roche.
So we end up paying for medicine while Rumsfeld, Cheney and Bush do the 
business.
Do you know who bought the patent for TAMIFLU from ROCHE LABORATORIES in 
1996?
GILEAD SCIENCES INC.
Do you know who was the then president of GILEAD SCIENCES INC. and remains a 
major shareholder?
DONALD RUMSFELD, the present Secretary of Defence of the USA.
Do you know that the base of TAMIFLU is crushed aniseed?
Do you know who controls 90% of the world's production of this tree?
ROCHE.
Do you know that sales of TAMIFLU were over $254 million in 2004 and more 
than $1000 million in 2005?
Do you know how many more millions ROCHE can earn in the coming months if 
the business of fear continues?
So the summary of the story is as follows:
Bush's friends decide that the medicine TAMIFLU is the solution for a 
pandemic that has not yet occurred and that has caused a hundred deaths 
worldwide in 9 years.
This medicine doesn't so much as cure the common flu.
In normal conditions the virus does not affect humans.
Rumsfeld sells the patent for TAMIFLU to ROCHE for which they pay him a 
fortune.
Roche acquires 90% of the global production of crushed aniseed, the base for 
the antivirus.The governments of the entire world threaten a pandemic and 
then buy industrial quantities of the product from Roche.
So we end up paying for medicine while Rumsfeld, Cheney and Bush do the 
business.

Somebody requested that if any news on the referee scandal arises, would I 
keep them informed. I forget who asked, but heres proof that dodgy things 
occur.


So perhaps Jose was right about CL referees...
  Now I know there are those on here (mentioning no names of course) who 
believe Mourinho is being totally malicious about the influence of certain 
big clubs on referees in the CL. However, there has just been a most 
interesting transcript released in Italy of intercepts of calls between 
Juventus management and Pierluigi Pairetto (designator of refs in Italy in 
2004) about arranging friendly refs for the CL. Pairetto was, and still is 
vice-president of the UEFA referees committee, and was telling Juventus 
which referee had been allocated for their CL game a fortnight before the 
match. Now of course, that's Italy for you, isn't it? Except of course that 
the president of the UEFA committee is Spanish and it seems highly likely 
that he is prone to tipping off (at least) Spanish clubs about who has been 
designated for their games. Choice of referees is of course supposed to be 
confidential until three days before a match. On a related point it appears 
that the UEFA referees committee held an emergency meeting the day after the 
Barca-Milan semi-final to discuss the disallowed 'goal' by Shevchenko, 
concluding that Markus Merk was wrong and that it should be recommended to 
FIFA that he not be involved in any game involving Italy in the World Cup. 
The newspapers in Italy report that a similar meeting took place after the 
Liverpool-Chelsea semi last season. The conclusion then was also that the 
referee was wrong to give the goal, but as clear TV evidence was not 
available, no action was taken in relation to Lubos Michel or his assistant. 
It also appears that Volker "Chelsea are the enemies of football" Roth, also 
involved in referee designation, is likely to be asked to retire from his 
position as head of the referees' association.
