WHO has stressed that most cases of swine flu are mild and require no treatment. The problem for employers is figuring out who has the flu without violating the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, as violations can result in a big fine. Having a policy that requires mandatory reporting of exposure by an employee is a big risk.

Natural flu prevention can also consist of boosting your immune system with the use of homeopathic medicines. The best one for flu is one called Oscillococcinum, Oscillo for short. It can also be called Anas barb, as French homeopaths created it.

Ferrum phos is suited to those who are prone to colds and flu, who tend to catch everything that's going around. What's often called leuco-phlegmatic or sanguine people (leuco meaning pale, phlegmatic meaning lots of phlegm production and sanguine meaning blood).

In 1976, when the last Swine Flu vaccine was made and administered to the American public, it was found that the public did not get the full truth about the potential side effects of the vaccine. More people died of the flu vaccine that year than died of the flu.

The government had a similar response to the flu in 1976 as what they are doing now. In 1976 when one soldier died from the flu after he went on a forced march even though he was ill, the rest of the soldiers were tested. Only four were found to have the Swine flu and they all recovered completely without taking a vaccine according to Wallace's report.

Treatments

One reason why the osteopathic approach can be helpful is that is provides another effective treatment other than antibiotics. There is a great deal of controversy about the over-use of antibiotics for ear and respiratory infections. Because of this over-use, there are now bacteria in the environment that are no longer susceptible to any antibiotic now available.

Research shows that 80% to 90% of all ear infections heal on their own, and children who do not receive antibiotics actually heal faster and have fewer recurrences. By treating every ear infection with antibiotics, we only succeed at increasing antibiotic-resistant bacteria and prevent the patient from building up his or her own immunity, thus setting the child up for more infections.

The news media may also get their information from sources that have a similar bias. So it can be very difficult to decide what to do.

Based on this one death, the government called for everyone to take the vaccine. Later the vaccine was withdrawn but much damage had already been done. According to Wallace, the government studies had shown that neurological damage could occur but the government did not warn the public so that they could make an educated choice for themselves.

A few years ago, on The Today Show, a couple from Colorado whose son had died from the flu, expressed to the watching public that they regretted not giving their son the flu vaccine. He had died and they were encouraging everyone watching to not make the same mistake they felt they had made. Four children from Colorado had died from influenza that same year.
