Free Flu Pandemic Prevention DVD

A new strain of influenza - Swine Flu - has arrived in the UK.

We believe that industrialised agriculture is a big mistake - densely populated warehouses of animals provide the opportunity for influenza to mutate at a faster rate than the human race has ever witnessed before.

So factory farms are a wholly unnatural situation that favours the flu virus. We have seen this problem of dangerous influenza strains emerge in poultry systems and in pig systems - now the latest Swine Flu (spreading from Mexico) has been found to be a combination of pig flu, bird flu and human flu. Rapid trade routes carry animal diseases around the world, and when people catch the new mutant virus strains, today's air travel can create a global pandemic in record time.

Bird Flu - a virus of our own hatching by Dr Michael Greger is ideal if you want to know more about the threat from animal-human flu viruses, and what to do about it. The scientific facts are disturbing, but the book also offers advice on how to deal with a pandemic situation. What's more, Greger points out that pandemic prevention is possible. More than ever, it is vital for the human race to think carefully about how they treat their domesticated livestock.
