EU Agency Complains: WHO 'Gambled Away' Public Confidence With Swine Flu Fear Mongering

To date, WHO has failed to provide convincing evidence to counter these allegations and the organisation has not published the relevant declarations of interest. Taking such a reserved position, the organisation has joined other bodies, such as the European Medicines Agency, which likewise, have still not published such documents.

Flynn says that the inquiry has questions regarding:

…the possibility for representatives of the pharmaceutical industry to directly influence public decisions taken with regard to the H1N1 influenza, and the question of whether some of their statements had been adopted as public health recommendations without being based on sufficient scientific evidence

The report, currently in draft status and due to be completed by the end of April, concludes:

Various factors have led to the suspicion that there may have been undue influence by the pharmaceutical industry, notably the possibility of conflicts of interest of experts represented in WHO advisory groups, the early stage of preparing contractual arrangements between member states and pharmaceutical companies as well as the actual profits that companies were able to realise as a result of the influenza pandemic,

Perhaps, one of these days, less credence will be placed in so-called “experts” and more will be placed in rational thinking. The cost in both money and lives by the manipulations of Big Pharma and the willing acquiescense of greedy public officials in the swine flu debacle is merely one example of a medical system run amok.
