H1N1 Threat at Hajj
2009-07-16
Iran's official Fars news agency Wednesday reported that a 57-year-old woman and a 24-year-old man who had recently returned from a pilgrimage
to Saudi Arabia
tested positive for the H1N1 virus, also known as swine flu. This brings Iran's tally to three cases.

Every year about two million Muslims go on pilgrimage to Mecca
in 2009, the Great Hajj will be in late November
Peak time to spread influenza...

-- the holiest place in Islam. As well as the annual Hajj pilgrimage, which all Muslims are required to make at least once if they can afford to, the faithful can also make a lesser pilgrimage to Mecca, known as umra, at any time of the year.

The latest cases highlights concerns that the Muslim pilgrimage will hasten the spread of swine flu.
Did you hear that the swine flu innoculation is cultured from Jewish blood? Anyone who gets the shot automatically becomes a Jew... forever!!! Even the president of Iran himself, Ahmadenijad, cannot shed the taint of his Jewish blood, and I think that was only his grandfather or great-grandfather. But, shhh! don't tell anyone, 'k?

#2  The big risk is of co-infections of H5N1 bird flu and H1N1 swine flu. When (and note I don't say 'if') that happens the merde will really hit the fan.
