A surge in bird flu cases in China increases the pandemic potential of the H7N9 strain, according to a Beijing-based supplier of influenza vaccines to the Chinese government. Sinovac Biotech Ltd. (SVA), the first company to win regulatory approval for a swine flu shot in 2009, is preparing to make immunizations against the new virus that’s infected dozens of people in China and killed 13. The Nasdaq-traded company will hold off [...] Bird flu turned fatal for a 52- year-old Shanghai woman whose lungs became so damaged that she began to suffocate, causing her vital organs to rapidly shut down, doctors in China said. The retiree became ill March 27, with a fever that soared as high as 40.6 degrees Celsius (105.1 Fahrenheit), doctors at Huashan Hospital in Shanghai wrote in a report on the case in the journal Emerging Microbes & Infections. Treatment with intravenous antibiotics, steroids, [...] so now we imported the new deadly corona virus, too: a man from saudi-arabia flew in to get treatment here in Germany last Tuesday (19th); they found out he had this new virus on Saturday (23rd)and now he is dead. Do not want to know how many people he had contact with and infected before it was clear he was carrying this virus ?! http://www.tz-online.de/aktuelles/muenchen/todesvirus-patient-gestorben-2821564.html http://translate.google.de/translate?sl=de&tl=en&js=n&prev=_t&hl=de&ie=UTF-8&eotf=1&u=http://www.tz-online.de/aktuelles/muenchen/todesvirus-patient-gestorben-2821564.html
we should ban this medical tourism for our own [...] (CNN) – There has been another confirmed case of a mysterious new SARS-like virus. The Saudi health ministry informed the World Health Organizationthat a 39-year-old man was hospitalized with the novel coronavirus on February 28 and died two days later. So far, WHO has recorded 15 confirmed cases of the novel coronavirus, including nine deaths, since the fall. The Saudi patient did not appear to have had any contact with anyone who was already infected.

The researchers have discovered in the DRC. On Thursday, they went out with a warning. - The death process is very fast, says Joseph Fair, one of the researchers. The virus has been completely unknown to the scientific community. But yesterday published the new discovery in the scientific journal PLOS Pathogens. The discovery was made after [...] I have just one question… WHY THE HELL DO NUCLEAR PLANTS HAVE COMPUTERS HOOKED UP TO THE NET?
http://www.bbc.com/news/technology-19293797 A new threat targeting infrastructure in the energy industry has been uncovered by security specialists. “It is a destructive malware that corrupts files on a compromised computer and overwrites the MBR (Master Boot Record) in an [...] Scientists in the United States have identified a new strain of influenza in harbour seals that could potentially impact human and animal health. The H3N8 flu has been associated with the deaths of harbour seals in New England last year. Researchers say the virus may have evolved from a type that had been circulating in birds. They say the discovery highlights the potential for pandemic flu to emerge from unexpected sources. “We need [...] A new virus is spreading via one of the few emails we ALL click on – alerts that you have been ‘tagged’ in a picture on Facebook.

That these monitoring features are available on cell phones was a known fact, [...] Scientists have discovered a new gene in the influenza virus that helps the virus control the body’s response to infection. Although this control is exerted by the virus, surprisingly it reduces the impact of the infection. The findings will help researchers better understand how flu can cause severe infections, as well as inform research into new treatments. Just finding this gene in the first place is important, but the find is even more [...] Susanne Posel In the rainforest of south-east Cameroon 80% of the meat eaten is “bushmeat”. The indigenous people consume a diet of gorilla, chimpanzee or monkey. It is estimated that an excess of 30,000 gorillas are killed in Cameroon each year for their meat. The habits of tribes like those in Cameroon are now being blamed for the transmission of viruses like the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) which is purported by mainstream scientists [...] From SHTFplan: To the disbelief of many of our readers, in a 2011 report titled Everything You Do Is Monitored, we noted that microphones and cameras on cell phones and computers allow interested parties (translated to mean your respective government) to hear and see everything going on in the direct vicinity of the device without the knowledge of its owner.

As details of Flame – the third major virus discovered to have an affinity to Iranian computer systems in recent years – filtered through the media, network security experts in Israel, requesting anonymity, studied the initial reports, and indicated that they believed small groups of hackers could [...] The New York Times Scientists have long worried that an influenza virus that has ravaged poultry and wild birds in Asia might evolve to pose a threat to humans. Now scientists financed by the National Institutes of Health have shown in a laboratory how that could happen. In the process they created a virus that could kill tens or hundreds of millions of people if it escaped confinement or [...] First there was the Stuxnet computer virus that wreaked havoc on Iran‘s nuclear program. Now comes “Duqu,” which researchers on Tuesday said appears to be quite similar.
Security software firm Symantec said in a report it was alerted by a research lab with international connections on Friday to a malicious code that “appeared to be very similar to Stuxnet.” It was named Duqu because it creates files with “DQ” in the prefix.
