In the newspapers hearsay goes in as evidence, '"Doctors in Mexico told (Victoria's) husband, 'She has no symptoms or pathologies of the swine flu-virus and she never did: her condition is a direct result of her asthma,'" Pauline George told CTV.ca...'

How is the mother quoting the son-in-law's quote of what some doctors said evidence? The reporter seems ill-informed to be writing this story.

I'm not sure if this is partly attributable to Harper, but I doubt if compassion is one of his strong suits.

Do Not Take A Swine Flu Vaccine!

By Dr. Patricia A. Doyle

Global Research, April 26, 2009

I am making a plea to everyone who reads this, please, please DO NOT TAKE ANY VACCINE THAT IS PURPORTED TO 'PREVENT' THIS FLU.
Remember 1976 and the so called Swine Flu outbreak that was purported to be a coming pandemic? It only infected recruits at Ft. Dix. Why? Because I believe that the so called Swine Flu virus infected the recruits due to the vaccines they were given. Whether the government developed the Swine Flu 1976 virus and infected the recruits as a means to test the public to see if people would comply with a call to take vaccination against Swine Flu, or the recruits became infected via contaminated vaccine they were given as part of the recruit regimen, that outbreak was as phony as they come. I was one of the people duped into taking a Swine Flu shot and it made me so sick. I was sick in bed for three months after taking the vaccine.

Do not take seasonal flu vaccine if you are told that it could help prevent this brand new Swine Flu variant. It won't do a thing to prevent this flu. What it will do is serve up new genetic material to the Swine Flu virus that I have dubbed Spanish Flu 2, the Sequel. The Spanish Flu variant will use the gene sequences in the vaccine in humans

Maybe we need another opinion on this.

In Canada, the cases of Swine Flu have thus far been fairly mild thank God. No Flu is fun but this doesn't sound like a killer. All we can do is hope for the best.

I'm really disappointed that the Canadian government is blocking one of our own people from coming home because of some bureaucratic paranoia about this Flu that she doesn't have. Surely there is a way to get her home. She is a Canadian.

Directly from the article:

"None of the hospitals in the metropolitan area or the areas outside Toronto will accept her in the ICUs -- they are saying there are no ICU beds available," George said. "But that does appear to be the truth, we actually had a bed in one of the hospitals and it was nixed by the infection control doctor."
"We believe the Canadian doctors have made an association with the swine flu and will not change their decision."

This says the family believes that's why she's not there. It may not be the case. Typical tabloid journalism. The infection control doc could have nixed her transport for a variety of reasons. The most common one I could see is that patients transported from other hospitals are generally put in isolation till they're cleared of MRSA. No isolation room available means no ICU bed available. If she's in a good hospital in Mexico, she's not going to get first priority for a bed in Toronto.

Let her wait, if she doesn't have the flu she'll be back in a week or two, or does the gov of Canada not have the right to take steps to make sure the Mexican variant does not come here. It would seem to be considerably more deadly. You should fly down and meet her her and give her a warm hug and a kiss on the lips, after all there is nothing to be concerned about, it's only a mild flu right?
How , many has this 'non-fatal flu' killed in Mexico? I hear it is over 100 already.
