Pandemic 1918 flu - maybe not just a virus?

Maybe they were inventing the 2-butoxyethanol back then ... or experimenting with chemical variations that led to that chemical. NO, when things EXPLODE glycol ethers are formed. 2-butoxyethanol is the most commonly found glycol ether, that's all.

It took 409 tries before a couple of chemists invented 409 Cleaner ... & it's so wicked we don't touch the stuff in our family.

Two Detroit scientists developed a cleaning product capable of doing serious battle with grease and grime -- without the usual serious scrubbing. They didn't strike it lucky the first time around: in fact, it took them 409 tries to get the Formula right. The name of the miracle product they invented? Formula 409^®

Chemical poisoning should at least be considered as a cause

... and it isn't usually.

In our area, you just have to have flu-like symptoms for doctors to say it is some virus - They don't put something under a microscope - as with bacteria - they're just guessing

The 1918 Pandemic flu was in the news Oct 5 because Pres Bush mentioned having read Barry's book on the topic; so Barry is being interviewed on TV shows, etc.

Barry said that in that year the flu killed millions and that people turned blue from lack of oxygen very quickly; they were bleeding out of their eyes, mouth, ears, nose.

They were so black/blue that you couldn't tell what their race was. Maybe that is an autoimmune reaction that kills off all the red blood cells ... not just rapidly starts destroying them.

I've heard of people getting the 'bird flu' right after a long airplane ride. Sounds reasonable for this chemical exposure. Because it has a very serious 2nd hand solvent exposure (Someone breathing out the chemical in their breath & you get it in your eyes ... a few hours later you can be seriously exposed)

So, with all the autoimmune issues people have today ... if it really is a virus, they will fare well. Their immune system seems to notice virus & these don't get the flu, from what I've heard them saying. Bacteria on the other hand ... that gets ignored & they would be in a serious health situation)

Next time a flu epidemic is going around, don't blame the US Military for bringing it your direction, as they suggested on the news also ... but stop poisoning them with EGBE type chemicals. Check retic rate 2.5 days after 'the flu' starts & if it is very elevated & people have a horrible fatigue ... then maybe they've been chemically poisoned; maybe they haven't met up with 'a virus'

Flu? Virus?

Nice little catch-all words.

But not what I suspect caused the deaths of these 3 soldiers

Our military doesn't need another vaccine to protect them from a virus. They need to have our leaders recognize chemical poisoning when they see it.

The harm of 2-butoxyethanol and diethylene glycol monobutyl ether has been unrecognized for civilians and military alike for over half a century

What was going on ... when 'the flu' started?
