Bird Flu and U.S. Government Disinformation: Expert Reveals the Dirty Secrets

Dr. Bradford Frank, who studied infectious diseases at Yale University, and who is an expert on bird flu, will be conducting a free teleseminar to address the public’s questions about a possible bird-flu pandemic, as well as the shocking government disinformation.

LAKEWOOD, NEW YORK – May 25, 2006

A bird-flu pandemic was vividly portrayed in the made-for-television movie “Fatal Contact: Bird Flu in America,” shown on ABC, May 9, 2006. But, how realistic is this movie? According to a Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) internal document dated May 4, 2006 “The film does depict scenarios that could unfold should a severe pandemic ever develop, including limited availability of antivirals and vaccines as well as the potential for disruption of supplies, medicines, and other essential services. The film also illustrates the expected months-long delay in developing an effective vaccine against a pandemic strain of influenza once it emerges.”

But what about the use of quarantines to prevent the spread of the illness, possible resistance to the antiviral drugs Tamiflu and Relenza, the effectiveness of surgical masks, and other important issues? The HHS document contains disinformation that is startling in scope.

Dr. Bradford Frank, who studied infectious diseases at Yale University, and who is an expert on bird flu, will be conducting a free teleseminar to address the public’s questions about a possible bird-flu pandemic, as well as the shocking government disinformation. Callers can ask questions throughout the 90-minute session. Interested persons are automatically signed up to receive further information about the teleseminar, which will take place on Wednesday, May 31st at 8 p.m. by going to www.AvoidBirdFlu.com and signing up for free News Alerts.
