Tamiflu Is Scary

I just saw on CNN that tamiflu is not helpful anymore. If CNN reports it, I'm guessing it probably hasn't been helpful for a few years. If we keep mutating viruses, they're only going to get stronger!!!

take this with a grain of salt

I heard of someone with CFS recently (this will be a completely unsubstantiated rumor as I have NO memory of where I heard this) who took Tamiflu and had a significant decrease in her CFS symptoms while on it.

Wow, well, of course, something this toxic would help us. lol I've thought of trying it myself.

Btw gracenote, your sig is one of my favorite lines. I have it on a poster and it used to be on my wall facing my bed and I read that line every day and I have found that it's true for me too. :)

That really is scary.

It made me itch like mad but did nothing for the 'flu.

Hi teejkay. It made my heart sing the first time I saw it.

As to your signature line I wouldn't necessarily want it on a wall facing my bed, but what a brilliant way to get the word out!!! And soon (very soon), I will (yes I will), click on "Go." Will I be able to collect $200.00? ;)

A few months ago, I cleaned out my bookmark file the easy way my hard drive had a major malfunction and voila! a brand new fresh start. :)

I tried Tamiflu without any effect in the past.

Oh dear.

I should have looked at the site closer.
It's very strange.

The article you mentioned makes no sense. If 'Big Pharma' were in on this, why would they have supressed reasearch for decades?
And the site also has an article on the childhood trauma thing that looks like a press release from the researchers themselves.

Wonder if they have a tinfoil hat on their webserver?
