Swine flu: 100.000 UK Cases A Day By August



Terraemotus magni erunt per loca et pestilentiae et fames terroresque de caelo et signa magna erunt. (Luke 21:11)

The Guardian reports more than 100.000 people could be diagnosed with swine flu every day by the end of August, the government said, announcing that the disease can no longer be contained in the UK.

A Commons statement by the health secretary, Andy Burnham, marks a watershed in the spread of the flu.

No more schools will be closed, unless forced to by the lack of staff or if the pupils are especially vulnerable.

Families and people in contact with those with flu will not be given preventative antiviral drugs.

The new policy of treatment for those with diagnosed illness, rather than containment, has already begun in the hotspots - chiefly London, Birmingham, and Scotland.

The change of tactic is the predicted response to the swelling number of people infected.

There are now 7.447 diagnosed cases in the UK, but the number is doubling every week.

Burnham said: If they continue in this way, "we could see over 100.000 cases per day by the end of August".

He later stressed that the figure "is a projection. It is not a fact. This is how the disease could develop and we don't know".

In the United States, the official figures show 33.902 Americans have contracted swine flu, with 170 deaths.

I believe we are at war with an alien civilization - and this is why we are commanded to fight for freedom, and to spread the gospel throughout the universe, see Mark 16:15.

As the Apostle Paul confirmed: "We wrestle not against flesh and blood", see Ephesians 6:12.

The world is in the midst of a flu grace period.

116 countries have officially reported 89.921 cases of swine flu infection, including 382 deaths, according to WHO.

Up to 2 billion people could soon be infected by swine flu.
