An Official Release From Ukraine Health Minister Regarding WHO testing of Epidemic - Adding a Very Interesting News Article -Ukraine12/16/09 8:38am

Ukraine's Health Minister Released an official report on WHO testing of those sick in Ukraine. The translation is what might have convoluted the "dead" number from H1N1 - it seems to say one thing, then another number. So I am not sure if it is ONLY One of the dead that tested positive for H1N1 or 202. Also notice of the 2494 samples taken ONLY 466 had H1N1!!! What did the REST have? That information was not released in this statement!


In Ukraine since the beginning of the epidemic rise in the incidence of influenza and ARI registered 2 546 622 cases of influenza and acute respiratory infections.

За розрахунковими даними завершено курс лікування у 2 056 163 (81%) хворих. According to the settlement completed treatment in 2 056 163 (81%) patients. Продовжує хворіти 490 459 осіб.

Died of complications - 501 person.

Методами, рекомендованими ВООЗ відібрано зразки для аналізу у 2494 осіб, у тому числі від померлих - 395. Methods recommended by WHO selected samples for analysis in 2494 people, including the dead - 395. Закінчено аналіз зразків від 962 осіб, з них від померлих 304. Completed analysis of samples from 962 people, including 304 from the dead.

На минулому 50 тижні епідемічних спостережень та з початком поточного 51 тенденція до зростання числа захворювань намітилася практично на всій території України за винятком областей західного регіону: Закарпатської, Львівської, Івано-Франківської, Чернівецької, Тернопільської та Хмельницької. In the past 50 weeks epidemiological observations and the beginning of the current trend of 51 to increase the number of cases observed virtually throughout the territory of Ukraine except western oblasts Region: Transcarpathia, Lviv, Ivano-Frankivsk, Chernivtsi, Ternopil and Khmelnytsky.

The largest daily number of cases registered in Dnipropetrovsk (12745 people) and Donetsk (7465) areas.

Зростання показників захворюваності у всіх регіонах відбувається в основному за рахунок зростання кількості хворих з числа дитячих контингентів шкільного віку. Growth rates of all regions is mainly due to increase in the number of patients among school-age children's contingents.

Серед областей, які не досягли епідемічного порогу: у Київській епідемічний поріг перевищено на 5 з 27 адміністративних одиниць, Житомирській - 9 з 25, Закарпатській - 5 з 15, Львівській - 7 з 27, Рівненській - 6 з 18, Одеській - 1 з 31, Херсонській - 4 з 20, Харківській - 8 з 30.

Прес-служба МОЗ України за інформацією Державної санітарно-епідеміологічної служби України Press Service of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine on information of the State Sanitary-Epidemiological Service of Ukraine

UPDATED 12/16/09 8:54AM

I want to add an interesting News Tidbit about Ukraine, the reason is: I question - Who was this shipment for? The military there - or a revolution fraction, or a Russian fraction? The information regarding this shipment bears watching, does one thing have to do with another?

News found:

Plane with arms bound for Ukraine was detained in Thailand

A cargo plane full of North Korean weapons, detained in Thailand after an emergency landing at Bangkok airport, was bound for Ukraine, the Thai news agency TNA reported on Sunday.

Thai authorities on Saturday seized about 40 tons of weapons from an Il-76 cargo plane which they said had come from North Korea after it landed for refueling at Bangkok's Don Muang airport, and arrested its five crew members.

Ukraine said later on Sunday that it is checking the reports on the plane. "The information on this score is being verified," a Foreign Ministry official said.

The aircraft's weapons arsenal included missiles and rocket-propelled grenades.

According to TNA, the plane's crew commander, a Belarusian national, said during a six-hour interrogation that the plane had flown from Ukraine and loaded weapons in North Korea.

The plane's commander said the aircraft refueled in Azerbaijan, then in the United Arab Emirates and after that in Thailand while en route to Pyongyang. On its way back, the plane was intended to refuel in Thailand and Sri Lanka, following which the cargo was expected to be delivered to Ukraine, TNA reported.

The plane's commander claimed that neither he, nor the other crewmembers who are Kazakh nationals knew about the military nature of the cargo.

Thai authorities accuse the crew of the plane, which is registered in Georgia, of illegal storage and transportation of weapons and misinformation, TNA reported. A United Nations resolution bans the transportation of certain weapons, including conventional arms, from or to North Korea.

The communist state is in the center of a long-running international dispute on its nuclear program.

The seizure came days after the U.S. presidential envoy's rare visit to North Korea designed to persuade Pyongyang to return to six-nation nuclear disarmament talks. Both parties said after the trip they understood the need to resume the talks.

TNA said Thai authorities were preparing a report for the UN on the arrest of the plane with.


Ukraine Numbers Are on the Increase Once More - Epidemic Threshold Being Reached - Large increases of Sickness Overnight 12/16/09 8:17am

The Official numbers of those getting sick are once again increasing in Ukraine. The color codings on the Health Minister's website, are showing the epidemic thresholds are increasing.

I would very much like to know, if the spraying which occurred was "white grit rain/snow" as being reported in Poland and Solvenia.

OFFICIAL NUMBERS UKRAINE FOR 12/15/09

2,690,563 SICK

156,272 HOSPITALIZED

507 DEAD

123,769 RELEASED FROM HOSPITAL

On the medical forum board in Ukraine, I am seeing people posting their children and family members are sick once again. High temperatures with coughing are the number one complaint. They are going to doctors, but the doctors are not testing them and simply giving them Tamiflu prescriptions. People are beginning to get concerned once more. Some areas are closing the schools again.

Obviously Ukraine bears watching closely once more.

I would seriously like to know what the Hell is being sprayed in Poland and Solvenia. I have asked the Solvenia person, if there is anyway of getting the "White Grit Rain/Snow" tested? Did this same type "White Grit" Rain in Ukraine at the beginning of all of this. I have asked those in Poland and Solvenia to keep me informed on any outbreak of sickness.

Considering, the economic expectations I have been reading about for Eastern Europe - along with Greece... the real information is the fact there is a predicted default for many of those countries in the not too distant future. (I research and look at all the Real economic situations around the world, every day) Yesterday I saw charts and economic data, suggesting many countries in Europe will be having to declare insolvency in 2010.

Sickness to reign so chaos and riots do not rule?

Teenager Fights For Life After Taking Tamiflu - 12/08/09 7:35am

A PRETTY teenager is fighting for life in hospital after taking Tamiflu to beat suspected swine flu.

Helpline staff told 18-year-old Samantha Millard she probably had the killer bug and to take the antiviral drug.

But after popping just three pills Samantha developed blisters on her body.

Doctors now fear the drug triggered life-threatening Stevens-Johnson syndrome, which causes chunks of skin to fall off.

The horror condition affects just three in a million people.

If it doesn't kill a victim they are left covered in scars.

Samantha's shocked mum Deborah took a photograph of her at home on Friday - two days after taking Tamiflu.

But hours later the teen - who hopes to become an air hostess - was in intensive care unable to breathe on her own.

Last night her condition had deteriorated and she was transferred to a specialist burns unit at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital, West London.

Deborah and Samantha's sister Charley, 23, were keeping vigil at her hospital bedside.

Samantha had called her GP in Bicester, Oxon, after suffering flu-like symptoms. But she was told to call the helpline.

An operator said her headache and runny nose was probably swine flu and to take Tamiflu.

Last night angry Deborah, 41, blasted the helpline staff. She said: "It shouldn't be the case that people with no medical background can make these decisions.

"These people are just Joe Bloggs off the street.

"My daughter could die because of this. Her condition is getting worse."

She added: "The doctor said because the rash appeared after she took Tamiflu it was probably caused by Tamiflu."

Tamiflu maker Roche is investigating the case.

A spokesman said it was "difficult to determine the role" Tamiflu played but it could not be ruled out that it played a part in triggering the syndrome.

The Department for Health defended the helpline.

A spokesman added: "Serious reactions to Tamiflu are extremely rare and it should still be taken as soon as possible, especially for very serious swine flu cases."

B.C. hospitals over capacity with Swine Flu patients

VANCOUVER, B.C. – B.C.’s major hospitals are overflowing with Swine Flu patients and a number are operating at or over capacity, Vancouverite has learnt.

42 patients in B.C. are on ventilators and intensive care units are under severe pressure at a number of key hospitals.

Royal Columbian Hospital in New Westminster, Richmond Hospital, Kelowna General Hospital and Royal Inland Hospital in Kamloops are operating at capacity, health ministry spokeswoman Michelle Stewart confirmed Sunday morning.

“Generally speaking our Emergency Departments and Intensive Care Units continue to be under significant pressure,” she said.

“Across the province we currently have 42 patients in our Intensive Care Units (ICUS) on ventilators (confirmed and suspected H1N1),” she said in reply to a question submitted to the ministry of health.

“ICUs at major sites in the lower mainland remain busy,” she said.

“Pressure points at Royal Columbian Hospital and Richmond Hospital, both of which are operating overcapacity,” said Steward.

“Interior Health indicates overall improvement in ICU capacity, however Kelowna General Hospital and Royal Inland are at capacity,” she said.

“Emergency Departments remain busy across the province; Northern Health (Prince George) experiencing a significant increase in ED volumes since Nov. 10th. A surge area has been opened to address additional volume,” added Stewart.

Five elective surgeries have been postponed in the Fraser Health Authority and Northern Health Authority areas. Fraser Health Authority serves the largest population base in B.C. with approximately 1.5 million residents.

Among sugeries postponed are two open heart surgeries in Fraser Health and a cataract surgery in Northern Health.

Across Canada, hundreds of people have been admitted to hospital suffering from severe Swine Flu complications. The government of Canada reported over 1,300 admissions between Nov. 1 and Nov. 7.

Hundreds more have been admitted since then.

The numbers are still going up and they (WHO and Ukraine govt.) say they are over the peak and the sickness is abating? That I do not understand.

I will state again, if all of the Ukraine only has 48000 hospital beds - WHAT are they doing with all the people? 30000+ more in the hospitals - They should mention, if they have temporary hospital set ups or what. That should be a question for the government there.
