Fowl! Bird Flu: It's Not What You Think
Dr Sherri J Tenpenny
Unflinching, thoroughly researched, and bound to be controversial, FOWL! Will change forever the way you view environmental policy, the pharmaceutical industry, and the government's role in the dissemination of public health information. Most importantly, you will have a new understanding of what bird flu is really about.
With investigative reporting unprecedented for a practicing physician, the author looks beyond the hysteria and exposes the vested interests poised to exploit the fear being generated about the bird flu virus.
This book explains how:
- Health officials appear to be deliberately inflating avian flu morbidity statistics to frighten the public.
- The pharmaceutical industry is using the bird flu to revive the vaccine business and why the vaccine currently under development will not only be extremely toxic, it will almost certainly be the wrong one.
- Agribusiness has plans for the global elimination of independent farmers, replacing their stock with genetically modified chickens and forcing them into economic servitude.
- Government agendas are embracing elaborate "risk communication" plans to ensure the cooperation of citizens potentially faced with quarantines and mandatory vaccinations.
- Vietnam era "Agent Orange" coupled with irresponsible environmental policies has compromised the eco-system in Southeast Asia, China, and the rest of the world and may be triggering global avian flu outbreaks.
FOWL! Is an investigative report into how dioxin, persistent pollutants (POPs), and other environmental chemicals are contributing to illness in migratory birds, chickens, and humans making them more susceptible to the effects of influenza viruses called "bird flu".
