		<description>I&#039;m not really a huge conspiracy buff, but it might be significant one of these guys is a CFR member, and was also involved in the reconstruction of the 1918 Spanish influenza.</description>

		<description>That is probably the most likely scenario, I admit. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Still it is interesting to read a patent held by a WHO scientist that was published in January of 2009, pertaining to attenuated swine flu influenza virus. This would not be a concern to the rest of us until we learned of the Medimmune vaccine in summer of 09. Those same scientists have made interesting remarks about the relative ease with which the genes permitting interspecies transmissibility can be pinpointed and modified. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Anyway, without casting aspersions, I think that their work deserves wider attention and a lot of people will find it thoroughly engrossing.</description>

		<description>The present invention relates, in general, to attenuated swine influenzaviruses having an impaired ability to antagonize the cellular interferon(IFN) response, and the use of such attenuated viruses in vaccine andpharmaceutical formulations. In particular, the invention relates toattenuated swine influenza viruses having modifications to a swine NS1gene that diminish or eliminate the ability of the NS1 gene product toantagonize the cellular IFN response. These viruses replicate in vivo,but demonstrate decreased replication, virulence and increasedattenuation, and therefore are well suited for use in live virusvaccines, and pharmaceutical formulations. &lt;br&gt;    This is a copy of the patent abstract from the IPEXL website, as the patent writers are all involved in research relating to the medical applications of studying the swine influenza as a means of understanding why these viruses are so effective in replicating faster than the human immune system can respond to them, may I suggest that these are not mad scientists but rather physicians involved in the legitimate study of a genome in order to combat and counteract a deadly virus rather than proudly publish the fact that they have invented an evil super weapon?</description>

		<description>Thanks for posting it here. We respect original source sites that we link to so do not like to post more than a tease of the original post with a link to that original. You can see how we edited your post to try to effect that. It helps if you leave out all the formatting code from the original site too!</description>

		<description>When I didn&#039;t get any reponses I just took the email I&#039;d put together and brought it to ATS. I mean, swine flu was being actively bioengineered in this country shortly before a pandemic. Even if this was a totally benign operation, I would expect people might have some interest in knowing that fact.</description>

		<description>Funny you mention that. She was the 3rd person I sent this to because she was on that night and was going to be discussing swine flu. &lt;br&gt;It was pretty much last minute before she was going to be on, so I doubt she even read it that night.&lt;br&gt;Never did get a response from her either. &lt;br&gt;I also sent a copy to George Noory that night. I asked them both to have any of their contacts with relevant knowledge to have a look. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I am thinking that because I haven&#039;t been visited by men in black and am still alive and well that this might not be &quot;THE&quot; smoking gun that people are looking for. Although the more people that see this the less worried I am for my continued well being.</description>

		<description>by the way you should try to read the whole thread over there to get a better sense of everything we were able to come up with. nothing conclusive obviously, but there were a few ups and downs and convolutions in trying to decide what kind of response this thing deserves.</description>

		<description>Oh hey, this was approved. I was a bit worried it wouldn&#039;t be due to the fact I reposted it from elsewhere. Just didn&#039;t want to have to type the same thing out again. I was the OP at abovetopsecret. I sent this off to a few other news sites and never got a response.</description>
