Now we know why this is being hyped up so much by this
administration...

Finally, the pieces of the puzzle start to add up. Not
long ago, President Bush sought to instill panic in
this country by telling us a minimum of 200,000 people
will die from the avian flu pandemic, but it could be
as bad as 2 million deaths in this country alone.
This hoax is then used to justify the immediate
purchase of 80 million doses of Tamiflu, a worthless
drug that in no way shape or form treats the avian
flu, but only decreases the amount of days one is sick
and can actually contribute to the virus having more
lethal mutations.
So the U.S. placed an order for 20 million doses of
this worthless drug at a price of $100 per dose. That
comes to a staggering $2 billion.
We are being told that Roche manufactures Tamiflu and,
in a recent New York Times article, they were battling
whether or not they would allow generic drug companies
to help increase their production.
But if you dig further you will find that a drug was
actually developed by a company called Gilead that 10
years ago gave Roche the exclusive rights to market
and sell Tamiflu.
Since Rumsfeld holds major portions of stock in
Gilead, he will handsomely profit from the scare
tactics of the government that is being used to
justify the purchase of $2 billion of Tamiflu.
