News Update from Citizens for Legitimate Governmenthttp://www.legitgov.org/index.html#breaking_news UK 'Societal Disruption' doc: 'mass casualties, maintenance of public order, role of police and armed forces' --Emergency warning as global flu epidemic fears grow --Planning advice warns of disastrous effects --UK emergency services have been put on alert as the World Health Organisation (WHO) warns that a potentially deadly from of bird flu that affects humans could spark a global epidemic this winter. An emergency planning document spelling out the disastrous likely consequences of such an epidemic has already been distributed to government agencies. ...The UK government believes high levels of death and illness could lead to public disorder. Quarantine, travel restrictions and the issuing of face masks are all being considered as protective measures.
Under the heading "Societal Disruption" the document says the government "needs to consider maintenance of essential services such as … utilities (and) communication; management of mass casualties; maintenance of public order; the role of police and armed forces" . (Is *this* why numerous microbiologists have died under mysterious circumstances since 9-11? *What* has the Bush terror team been working on???)

A biological (terror) disaster would provide Dictator Bush an excuse to quickly pass Patriot II, set up Dr. Frist's quarantines, insure the pharmaceutical companies receive windfall profits, and dump Social Security due the ensuing economic disaster --all in one fell swoop!) --The World Health Organization has issued a dramatic warning that bird flu will trigger an international pandemic that could kill up to seven million people. The influenza pandemic could occur anywhere from next week (?!?) to the coming years, WHO said.

A US team added two genes from a sample of the 1918 virus to a modern strain (Why?) known to have no effect on mice. Animals exposed to this composite were dying within days of symptoms similar to those found in human victims of the 1918 pandemic.

(Why?) Phyllis Burn died aged 20 in 1918, a victim of the 20th Century's worst flu epidemic, which killed more than 50 million people. She was buried in a lead coffin, thought to be virtually airtight, in Twickenham, south-west London. Scientists wearing protective clothing will remove lung samples from the body. ...The move has the support of Miss Burn's niece, Hilary Burn-Callander, who told BBC London she was a bit surprised at first by the request. "I didn't know what to think to be honest," she said.
