I looked, and behold, an ashen horse; and he who sat on it had the name Death; and Hades was following with him Authority was given to them over a fourth of the earth, to kill with sword and with famine and with pestilence and by the wild beasts of the earth. (Revelation 6:8)
How can anyone doubt we're being warned by the Almighty?????
UK
Swine Flu can No Longer Be Contained
Swine flu is spreading so rapidly across Britain
that there could be 100,000 new cases a day by the end of next month,
the health secretary, Andy Burnham, said today. The UK would immediately
move to the "treatment phase" of its plan to combat swine flu,
meaning doctors would no longer test for the H1N1 virus and urge anyone
with symptoms to stay at home, Burnham told the House of Commons.

Only
a Flight Away? Swine Flu Followed Route Map
Health experts are fond of saying any new disease
is just a flight away from anywhere, and a report published on Monday
shows the new strain of H1N1 flu followed the airline route map as it
spread around the globe.-"This work provides the world with a
potent early warning system for emerging infectious diseases," Dr.
Michael Gardam of the Ontario Agency for Health Protection and Promotion
said in a statement.

Hacker, head of the Robert Koch Institute for infectious diseases, said
in Berlin. "In autumn, the mutated form could spread to the
northern hemisphere."

county facing bubonic plague cases
<-FEATURE!!!
Health Department
officials say residents of Santa Fe County, N.M., should take
precautions amid three confirmed cases of bubonic plague in the
county.-"Besides the human cases, we're also having animal
cases," Ettestad said. "Those span from Taos County all the
way down north-central New Mexico. I don't suspect that plague is just
in one small area, it seems to be countywide in Santa Fe."

New
flu strain 'has mutated, become more infectious'
The new strain of
influenza appears to have mutated to become more infectious for humans,
the online edition of science magazine Nature reported Monday,
referencing research by a team including Prof. Yoshihiro Kawaoka of
Tokyo University's Institute of Medical Science.-After analyzing
multiple samples of the new flu virus, the team ascertained that in some
cases the HA of the new H1N1 strain have mutated, allowing the strain to
stick to human cells more easily.

'Something
different" happening with new flu - CDC
<-FEATURE!!!
The new
strain of H1N1 flu is causing "something different" to happen
in the United States this year- perhaps an extended year-round flu
season that disproportionately hits young people, health officials said
on Thursday.-"The fact that we are seeing ongoing transmission now
indicates that we are seeing something different," the CDC's Dr.
Daniel Jernigan told a news briefing. "And we believe that that may
have to do with the complete lack of immunity to this particular virus
among those that are most likely affected. And those are children,"
Jernigan added.

Australia
flu 'may tip pandemic'
A sharp increase in
swine flu cases in Australia may mean the infection has become a
pandemic, the World Health Organization says. For that to happen,
officials would have to verify that the disease had become established
outside North America, where the crisis began. "Once I get
indisputable evidence, I will make the announcement," said WHO
director general, Margaret Chan.

Revealing
Plagues, Pestilence's and Diseases: Deadly Threat To Humanity
(by Pastor Dale Morgan)
Although the thought of bubonic plague seems extremely remote,
it isn't. A decade after Danny's deadly encounter,
plague-infected animals could be found in at least 40 percent of
the continental United States, from the Pacific eastward into
Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas... The term plague comes from the
Latin plaga, meaning "to blow," or a blow at the hands
of a god. The word is at once frightening, disheartening and-in
today's technological societies-so distant from modern thought
that it almost defies the prospect of reality.

Swine
Flu and the Pale Horse of the Apocalypse
For
those familiar with Bible prophecy, the sea of face-masked
people in Mexico City and widespread fear of a global flu
pandemic brings to mind the image of the pale, or sickly, horse
of the four horsemen of the apocalypse, as described by the
Apostle John in the book of Revelation. The first three horsemen
of the apocalypse symbolize religious deception, war, and
famine. Along with the fourth horseman, pestilence, these riders
represent the end-time culmination of the most traumatic
problems endured by a rebellious mankind. They picture one of
the most ominous scenarios ever.
