Who stands to gain by spreading Bird Flu epidemics gimmicks?
------------------------------------------------------------

What do you say of this????

First of all, I would like to tell every one that bird flu is
nothing but money generating gimmick of certain compa-
nies/politicians.

So far only 55 people have died of so-called bird flu whereas
7000 died by lightning last year alone, so are we having a
lighting epidemic, rubbish? These deaths were due to Respiratory
Symptoms, but not confirmed for H5N1(the deadly Avion Flu
strain).

Tell me. How many people handling birds have died because of di-
arrhea? Must be more than 55 in the last few years then can we
say "we are in a Salmonella epidemic???"

Next, who stands to gain by all this?

A> Roche by selling -- Tamiflu.

B> Who has the patent for Tamiflu: A lesser known company called
"Gilead".

C> Who is the major shareholder of this company??? Can any one
guess???: It is Donald H. Rumsfeld and he was chairman of the
Board of Gilead Sciences, where he remained until early 2001
when he became defense secretary in Captain Bush Jr's Cabinet.

The model points to a parallel in the US when brazen corruption
by the now notorious, Dallas based Halliburton Corporation,
whose former CEO is Vice President Dick Cheney. Cheney's company
has so far gotten him billions worth of US construction con-
tracts in Iraq and elsewhere. (It is on his report and scare re-
garding WMD (Weapons of Mass Destruction led to Bush declaring a
war on Iraq).

D> Who else stands to benefit?: Bush campaign funders, Bilder-
berger spokesman Etienne F. Davignon and Reagan-Bush former sec-
retary of state Mr. George P. Shultz, both of whom are also on
the board of directors of Gilead.

Another member of the Bush circle is Lodewijk J.R. deVink, who
sits on the board of Hoffman-La Roche, Gilead's partner.

In other words, bird flu will generate outrageous profits for
insiders like Shultz, Rumsfled, Davignon and de Vink.

E> By the way what is Tamiflu (Generic name: oseltamivir phos-
phate)???

It's an extract from star aniseed (our very own Garam masala)
and each dose is $100 so even if 15% of the world populace un-
dergoes this vaccination of only one dose, then the total sales
will gross more than 100 billion USD.

Conclusion

Since last year media started this "Tamasha" by highlighting the
news - from other countries.

Our Poultry Industry suffered losses due to above rumors during
that year

This time around, millions of farmers/entrepreuners will loose
their livelihood & become bankrupt because a few are interested
in making lots of money.

Chicken is being sold at Rs 4/kg in some places.

Think of the state of the Farmer, who unlike as in other coun-
tries, is not insured and not going to be compensated (only
farmers in Navapur, Nandurbar are being compensated by the
Govt.)

So, it is my sincere request to all of you that spread this in-
formation to everyone, buy, cook and eat poultry products
(chicken & eggs) without hesitation and try to save the liveli-
hood of millions of poultry farmers in India.

Remember that anything, cooked over 70 degrees Celsius, is safe.
