Aussies Develop Successful Human Bird Flu Vaccine

Australia's Commonwealth Serum Laboratories (CSL) announced today that it has successfully developed and tested a vaccine against the much hyped and feared H5N1 avian influenza (so-called "bird flu") virus strain in humans. A CSL spokesperson claimed to have already validated effectiveness of the vaccine but no details have been provided on precisely how they did this.

Protection involves a course of two vaccine injections and one immune system booster of an unspecified type. Testing is now proceding on children and the elderly to ensure a suitable protocol will be available for all age ranges.

The CSL spokesperson said the company could develop large scale vaccination batches within 6 weeks if needed.

My position against vaccination is well documented. I am also against the hype that has been deliberately orchestrated by those profiting from the concern, fear and terror engendered by the "bird flu" hysteria. Perhaps now that a reputable and trustworthy supplier has actually developed an effective vaccine and is finalising a set of protocols we can hope for some reduction in many people's anxiety.
