The head of health at the Council of Europe, Wolfgang Wodarg, called the swine flu scare a “false pandemic” orchestrated by drug companies looking pull in large profits from the vaccines.
Saying it was “one of the greatest medicine scandals of the century,” Wodark said, “[Swine flu] is just a normal kind of flu. It does not cause a tenth of deaths caused by the classic seasonal flu. The great campaign of panic we have seen provided a golden opportunity for representatives from labs who knew they would hit the jackpot in the case of a pandemic being declared.”
The WHO recently reaffirmed its position, saying that the pandemic is not over despite the number of swine flu deaths being dramatically lower than expected.
“We must make sure people can rely on the analysis and expertise of national and international public institutions,” said Wodark, “The latter are not discredited, because million of people have been vaccinated with products with inherent possible health risks.”
