New Zealand Grinds to Halt as Massive Flu Epidemic Hits Tens of Thousands and Children Begin Dying
By: Sorcha Faal, and as reported to her Russian Subscribers
In what Russian Scientists are calling a prelude to the World Wide Flu Pandemic soon to overtake a defenseless world, the country of New Zealand has ground to virtual halt from a massive flu epidemic, and as we can read as reported by the New Zealand Herald in their article titled "Flu epidemic hits hospital hard" and which says;
"Elective surgery has been postponed as Hawke´s Bay Hospital reels from the impact of the flu bug and other viruses which have hit staff and patients and filled its beds. The hospital is "full to capacity", Hawke´s Bay District Health Board´s chief operating officer Ray Lind said."
Most disturbing about this epidemic is its targeting of children, and as we can read as reported by New Zealand’s Dominion Post in their article titled "Flu is killing our kids" and which says; "A deadly strain of influenza B has claimed three young lives in the past six weeks and is now an epidemic among children in the North Island. The Health Ministry appealed for vigilance yesterday after revealing that the flu outbreak, which has struck thousands of children and swept through schools around the country, had killed a third victim."
