SUBJECT: ICELAND'S PLANS TO COMBAT H1N1 VIRUS THIS WINTER
REF: REYKJAVIK 97
¶1. (U) Summary: The strain of the H1N1 influenza virus present in
Iceland has been milder than that experienced in other countries,
and only one person has been hospitalized with the illness earlier
this year. Occurrences of H1N1 in Iceland have been on the decline
recently. However, Iceland's Chief Epidemiologist predicts the
influenza virus will hit hard in December or January, Iceland's peak
flu season months. Iceland will administer vaccinations to three
target groups beginning in October, once vaccine supplies arrive in
country. End summary.
¶2. (U) The first case of H1N1 in Iceland, an individual who had
recently returned from New York, was announced on May 26. According
to the Directorate of Health, as of September 25, 199 cases of the
H1N1 virus were confirmed in Iceland, 107 males and 92 females.
However, the Health Directorate, in June, began diagnosing many
cases based solely upon symptoms exhibited rather than upon medical
tests. As a result 1,264 cases of H1N1-like illness were diagnosed
but not confirmed between June 29 and September 1. Only one person
was hospitalized for a short period of time and there have been no
deaths as a result of the virus. Haraldur Briem, Iceland's Chief
Epidemiologist told EmbOff there are currently no cases of serious
illness due to the H1N1 virus in Iceland at this time.
¶3. (U) Briem told EmbOff that he expects the H1N1 vaccine to arrive
in Iceland in the beginning of October. Icelandic health
authorities have purchased 300,000 doses of the vaccine, which will
be delivered in four shipments. The last shipment is expected to
arrive in Iceland at the beginning of January 2010. Vaccinations
will be performed only at health care centers and hospitals. The
recent discovery that the vaccine might only need to be administered
once means that almost all Icelanders (pop. 320,000) could be
vaccinated.

Does it make you wonder if you mix this vaccine with another it could cause serious injury or death? Because i do.

So did they really need 300,000 doses when they already knew is wasn't serious? Just going by this cable; the US, Iceland and UK governments were all aware the numbers were possibly innacurate yet they assured the public ("You're all goingto die!!" scare mongered) into believing that swine flu was out of control.

Here in Australia, the vaccine was free. Is that true also for Iceland? I should think it would be. It begs the question then, what does it matter?

Mix another vaccine that could react with this one and could lower your metabolism and possible even kill you.. i mean who knows whats in these "vaccines" seems like our ancestors lived perfectly fine without them and now days we keep hearing of more and more people getting autism,cancer other diseases and when something so small like H1N1 comes around we are told to take vaccines.. eat your fruits and vegetables you will be fine.

I guess this would be the case if the vaccines were genuine, but who knows if they were tampered with or knowingly replaced with a harmful chemical?

Well as a medicinal chemist who has worked in making synthetic vaccines, I can tell you that they do not 'react' with each other. Also, I told you in my previous reply what is in them - attenuated or dead cells and in some cases, synthetic systems which are designed to mimic certain phenotypic features of a virus. For example, the cervical cancer vaccine I mentioned is a mimic of the capsule that encases the cervical cancer virus. When you inject these into a patient, your body's immune system responds and gets rid of it. It is able to 'remember' this capsule, so that if an actual cervical cancer virus enters a host body, the immune system can quickly see that it has the same viral capsule and get rid of it before anything happens. The other thing that does get put into vaccines are adjuvants. These are compounds that are toxic, yes, but not so much that they cause any damage. They are in there to promote the immune response of your body. If you didn't have adjuvants in there, the vaccine might go mostly unchecked and therefore not work. I can promise you that they are safe! If they were not, they would be instantly rejected.

I'm not sure who you would think would tamper with it. If you are talking about pharmaceutical companies, then I can promise you that it is not in the interests of Big Pharma companies to do this. They have to pay billions of dollars just to push a drug, or vaccine, through all of the rigorous process of R&D and clinical trials - all with the likely chance of it not actually making it to market at all. Why would they risk law suites and other charges when they spend so much money making sure it is safe only to then tamper with it??

I take the chance, of getting sick. I cant remember the last shot I got,. I will never take one. Even if I get sick, I believe 100% in my own healing powers.
The less vac or meds you take, the better the body knows how to deal with sickness.
One problem/My son.. My ex is a real sheep, she gets angry when i talk about shots like these.
No my doctor says it no problem. Ex
Your doctor doesn't. develop the vac. Me
They wont kill us, that just wouldn't happen, i want you to stop talking about this Ex
If I open my mouth she says, do you want your son?
That vac is deadly even when you dont take the shot, i am tired.of fighting.
I have troubles, while they just want to make money, and perhaps dumb us down. Or sterilize us

I got sick as a pig in the Easter before the "pandemic". The syptoms I had were exactly that of swine flu yet, I made it through after 4 days and no one in my family got sick. The whole thing was a shenanigan.
