Swine flu, swine flu vaccines, what to believe?

Listening to crazy internet talk radio about a Navy ship with vaccine related deaths, including the Captain of the ship, I realized that there is a way to reassure the public, as well as the Doctors and Nurses who are being required to take the vaccines this year.

The story yesterday that was supposed to reassure us was really bad.

But, onboard Navy ships, as well as isolated military bases, there is a captive audience of test subjects for the vaccines.

Navy ship-men don't just up and die.  Neither do military personal stationed on remote bases.  It is extremely rare for them to die, or even get really sick.

So give them all the vaccines, and record if any side effects, especially sudden death, occur.  This data, evidence based science, would do more to help the public, as well as Doctors and researchers, than all the talk in the world.

Or even better, be scientific about it, and give half the vaccine, and the other half the same chemicals, but with no flu virus of any kind (not actually aa placebo, but will allow for more data to be gathered).

Then a week later , if nobody gets sick or dies, give the placebo group the vaccine.

That is evidence based science at work.  So of course they won't do it.  It would be too scientific.

Nasal Douche??? Urea? Ear drops??

A mish mash that needs to be worked into a coherent post. A nasal douche system that is supposed to work better than salt water up the nose.

How does RinoFlow work?
RinoFlow is used in a simple two-phase process:
During Phase One a gentle saline mist sprays up through your nostril into the nasal cavity to:

soften inflamed membrane walls

thin nasal secretions so that mucous will drain naturally and easily

irrigate the nasal passages by softening and humidifying mucous membranes.

During Phase Two, the mist is redirected to provide additional cleaning that helps promote drainage of the sinuses for added relief.

Ingrediants in Murine eye drops

Polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH, PVA, or PVAL) is a water-soluble synthetic polymer (not to be confused with polyvinyl acetate, a popular wood glue).

Part of Murine ear drops
Urea or carbamide is an organic compound with the chemical formula (NH₂)₂CO. The molecule has two amine (-NH₂) residues joined by a carbonyl (-CO-) functional group.

Tetrahydrozoline is a derivative of imidazoline, which is found in over-the-counter eye drops and nasal sprays. Other derivatives include naphazoline, oxymetazoline, and xylometazoline. Poisoning can result from an overdose.
Tetrahydrozoline is an alpha agonist^[1] and its main mechanism of action is the constriction of conjunctival blood vessels. This serves to relieve the redness of the eye caused by minor ocular irritants.

Now there is a subject to blog about.

Remember this one?

Evidence Based Science: Of all the nerve ...

Well, I joined a forum and some of the people on it actually know the person I was talking about.

This should be interesting.

Two weeks worth of data

If you look at the country/flag counter, that is who and how many visited this blog in the last two weeks.

870 page views.  Which is strange, this blog is not even ready to go online yet.

When people decide what is evidence, Science suffers

What is not repeated, is often misunderstood.

New counter, old counter

The new counter (by country) has been a huge help.  It isn't just Google bots and Bing hitting the blog.

The old counter doesn't store more than a years results, so here is an update from that little freeware tool.
