Bird Flu: Why Modern Medicine Won’t Save Us
Very often when people begin to learn about bird flu, they jump to the conclusion that because medicine has advanced by quantum leaps since the 1918-19 influenza pandemic (global epidemic), there is nothing to worry about. They are certainly right...

Avian Flu Virus
The current Asian outbreak of avian flu, also known as bird flu,
is associated with the influenza A strain H5N1 flu virus.
Although not the same as the Spanish flu virus that claimed 20
million to 50 million lives worldwide in the 1918 outbreak, the
current avian flu strain does share many characteristics with
the 1918 strain. Both scientists and governments around the
world are studying this threat very closely and some have warned
of the potential for another pandemic outbreak. Initial studies
have shown that Tamiflu may be effective in helping to fight the
effects of this flu virus if the medication is taken very early
after flu symptoms appear.
Oseltamivir, sold under the brand name Tamiflu, is one of
several antiviral medications approved by the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration for the treatment and prevention of influenza.
Flu shots are still the best way to prevent someone from
developing the flu, but as
of this writing no vaccine is
available to protect humans from the avian H5N1 influenza virus.
According to the CDC, development of a vaccine has begun.
Tamiflu, which is generically known as oseltamivir, is part of a
family of flu fighting medicines called neuraminidase
inhibitors. Tamilflu is used in the treatment of viral
infections caused by the influenza A and influenza B viruses.
This treatment has shown to be effective in fighting these
viruses if treatment starts within two days of the onset of flu
symptoms. Tamiflu works by blocking the advance of the viral
infection and thus giving the body's immune system a better
chance for fighting the virus. Tamiflu can help you get back to
being healthy fast
