The real origin of the Swine Flu

With an announcement today by the Mexican government lowering Swine Flu fears, it leaves a lot of unanswered questions. There are as many conspiracy theories about the H1N1 virus’ origin and cause as there are people wearing face masks in Mexico City.

I have heard several strange and thought provoking theories regarding this mysterious illness with the humorous name. Speculations on the origins of the pathogen vary wildly from a lab created mix of viruses intended as a Bio Weapon to Children kissing pigs.

According to some journalists with contacts within the UN and WHO, this pathogen variant was created in a lab. As proof, they state that the usual process of transmission is that the virus is transmitted from a pig to a human, which is not the case in this outbreak because no case of a pig being infected with the A-H1N1 virus has been registered. Furthermore, the A-H1N1 virus partly contains American pig genes, partly human and bird flu strains and the virus of the Euro-Asian swine flu.

Allegedly, American scientists exhumed the body of a woman who died of the Spanish flu in 1918 and used the genetic material of the flu virus as the basis for the creation of the H5N1 virus through genetic manipulation. All this happened in laboratories at the Fort Detrick military base from which the new strain of anthrax called ames originated.

Also given the proximity of the outbreak to President Barrack Obama’s envoy on his last trip to Mexico doesn’t help to slow the theorists. The virus first struck in Mexico City on April 13th, three days before Obama flew in to meet government officials. Throwing gasoline on the fire, Archaeologist Felipe Solis, a man who shook Barack Obama’s hand in Mexico died the next week from symptoms similar to those of swine flu.

Only to make matters worse a member of the US delegation that came to Mexico with President Obama, Energy Secretary Steven Chu, later found showing the symptoms of the flu virus and also appears to have spread the flu to his wife, son and nephew.

So was it an assassination attempt or merely an outbreak of some pretty wicked flu virus? Either way advances in medical sciences and communication surely slowed and helped to control the spread and severity of the H1N1 virus. Personally I’m glad we all wont have to spend the summer wearing respirators, as it impedes the flow of beer and barbecue.
