OBAMA HAS DECLARED A NATIONAL EMERGENCY OVER THE SWINE FLU
OCT 24 2009
ORIGINAL ARTICLE STARTS BELOW
5000 People "Globally" have died from this as of Oct 24/09 when each year 30,000 to 40,000 people died from the seasonal flu just in the U.S. alone. There has already been over 230 deaths from this vaccine reported in Europe and it has just begun to be handed out.
Emergency powers trump the Bill of Rights
Thats the public explanation for this, but the real agenda behind this declaration may be far more sinister. Declaring a national emergency immediately gives federal authorities dangerous new powers that can now be enforced at gunpoint, including:
The power to force mandatory swine flu vaccinations on the entire population.
The power to arrest, quarantine or "involuntarily transport" anyone who refuses a swine flu vaccination.
The power to quarantine an entire city and halt all travel in or out of that city.
The power to enter any home or office without a search warrant and order the destruction of any belongings or structures deemed to be a threat to public health.
The effective nullification of the Bill of Rights. Your right to due process, to being safe from government search and seizure, and to remain silent to avoid self-incrimination are all null and void under a Presidential declaration of a national emergency.
None of this means that federal agents are going to march door to door arresting people at gunpoint if they refuse the vaccine, but they could if they wanted to. Your rights as an American are no longer recognized under this national emergency declaration.
This will be coming to Canada and all the Western Nations very soon Watch for it.

President Barack Obama declared the swine flu outbreak a
national emergency, giving his health chief the power to let hospitals move
emergency rooms offsite to speed treatment and protect noninfected patients.
The declaration, signed Friday night and announced Saturday, comes with the
disease more prevalent than ever in the country and production delays
undercutting the government's initial, optimistic estimates that as many as
120 million doses of the vaccine could be available by mid-October.
Health authorities say more than 1,000 people in the United States, including
almost 100 children, have died from the strain of flu known as H1N1, and 46
states have widespread flu activity. So far only 11 million doses have gone
out to health departments, doctor's offices and other providers, according to
the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention officials.
Administration officials said the declaration was a pre-emptive move designed
to make decisions easier when they need to be made. Officials said the move
was not in response to any single development.
Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius now has authority to
bypass federal rules when opening alternative care sites, such as offsite
hospital centers at schools or community centers if hospitals seek permission.
Some hospitals have opened drive-thrus and drive-up tent clinics to screen and
treat swine flu patients. The idea is to keep infectious people out of regular
emergency rooms and away from other sick patients.
Hospitals could modify patient rules for example, requiring them to give less
information during a hectic time to quicken access to treatment, with
government approval, under the declaration.
It also addresses a financial question for hospitals -- reimbursement for
treating people at sites not typically approved. For instance, federal rules
do not allow hospitals to put up treatment tents more than 250 yards away from
the doors; if the tents are 300 yards or more away, typically federal dollars
won't go to pay for treatment.
Administration officials said those rules might not make sense while fighting
the swine flu, especially if the best piece of pavement is in the middle of a
parking lot and some medical centers already are putting in place parts of
their emergency plans.
''I think the term emergency declaration sounds more dramatic than it really
is,'' said Dr. Peter Hotez, a research professor and chairman of the
Department of Microbiology, Immunology and Tropical Medicine at George
Washington University. ''It's largely an administrative move that's more
preemptive ...'' He said such a step would give emergency rooms and hospitals
the flexibility they need.
The national emergency declaration was the second of two steps needed to give
Sebelius extraordinary powers during a crisis.
On April 26, the administration declared swine flu a public health emergency,
allowing the shipment of roughly 12 million doses of flu-fighting medications
from a federal stockpile to states in case they eventually needed them. At the
time, there were 20 confirmed cases in the U.S. of people recovering easily.
There was no vaccine against swine flu, but the CDC had taken the initial step
necessary for producing one.
''As a nation, we have prepared at all levels of government, and as
individuals and communities, taking unprecedented steps to counter the
emerging pandemic,'' Obama wrote in Saturday's declaration.
He said the pandemic keeps evolving, the rates of illness are rising rapidly
in many areas and there's a potential ''to overburden health care resources.''
The government now hopes to have about 50 million doses of swine flu vaccine
out by mid-November and 150 million in December. The flu virus has to be grown
in chicken eggs, and the yield hasn't been as high as was initially hoped,
officials have said.
''Many millions'' of Americans have had swine flu so far, according to an
estimate that CDC Director Dr. Thomas Frieden gave Friday. The government
doesn't test everyone to confirm swine flu so it doesn't have an exact count.
He also said there have been more than 20,000 hospitalizations.
