Woman Infected With Polio-Like Form of West Nile

[Guest guest]

Sue,

I'm going to guess that every one of these people were vaccinated as

babies with the oral vaccine.

We know that any vaccine will induce a state of chronic disease in

the body so in this case polio.

It would be interesting to just get a hold of their whole vaccine

history. Who knows, maybe the last flu vax they had could have

triggered enough of a immune system suppression that allowed the

chronic polio to surface. Maybe not a flu vax but something sure

was the trigger and maybe no the same trigger.

Do they mean one of those mosquitos that were bred in a lab, and given West Nile

(a man made virus) then released into the populace?

Sounds remarkably like Gulllian-Barre syndrome, does it not?
