This
conclusion is based on a retrospective review
and
analysis
of the 2009 H1N1 “pandemic”. It is easy, in retrospect, to second guess
WHO’s decision to declare, in June, 2009, that the spread of the 2009 H1N1
virus was a potential public health emergency of international concern. The
overall severity of the “new” virus was not fully realized until the
“pandemic” had peaked and by that time, the new vaccine that manufacturers
had rushed to produce and deliver, was too late to have any significant
impact on the “first wave” of influenza infections. Without WHO’s
declaration in June, manufacturers would not have rushed to produce the new
vaccine!
