Public health officials are trying to educate the public about the dangers of the nasal vaccine and who it could hurt the most.
They said:"the swine vaccine is created within chicken eggs and it is processed to create a large patch of antigen, which provokes an immune response within the vaccinated individual."
They go on to caution us: "the virus within the chicken eggs for the nasal spray are alive. This means that they are more powerful than dead viruses; however it also means that they are more risky..."
"Live viruses can contain genetic instability..they can spread the disease.."
They say that many people should not take theses nasal sprays, including people who have asthma, diabetes, lung disease, anemia, heart or kidney problems, or a low immunity to disease, or pregnant women... Further no one under two years old or over fifty should take these nasal vaccines..
The list should include anyone who has ever had these diseases...
What do you think of this?
Should anyone be getting this risky product?

Ms. Fishe in the Administrator of the National Vaccine Center and she wants to update the public about the dangers of the swine flu and of the vaccine. She said that most people do OK with the swine flu; however America has suffered 600 deaths and of those deaths 50 were children.
She cautions you not to go to"drive-by" areas for shots. these include: stores, kiosks,or schools.
She says that people can get complications from the shots and that there are a lot more risks with these shots.
She points out that Congress has protected teh manufacturers from any legal actions or lawsuits so no one of the public will ever receive compensation for such injuries.
Oh and She said watch out what your schools may suggest because some schools are suggesting that students take 4 or 5 of these shots this year!
She said that this would not be safe. WhhhaaaaaaaaaaaT?

Are We related to the Ards ?Thoughts welcome

" Ards Provide clues tro human origins"
by Joel Achenbach
The Washington Post
October 2, 2009

Mr. Achenbach points out that the Ard lived 4.4 million years ago in East Africa.
According to him, She lived mostly in trees and she raised her offspring in trees. She sometimes came tot eh ground and walked upright.
Scientists think she could have been the transitional figure between old primates and more recent primates.She lived before Lucy, the 3.2 year old skeleton.
Scientists are still searching for our "lost common ancestor", a creature who is the ancestor of humans and chimpanzees. Many of hese creatures lived seven million years ago.
Ardi doesn't look like chimpanzees nor does she have their characteristics.
Chimpanzees probably developed separarte from Ard's group, the hominid.
The chimp and the gorilla have developed much more than the homind.
The hominid is primitive except for its' upright walkng adn its' brain development.
Owen Lovejoy, an anthropologist from Kent State University says that the Ards brought food to theri mates; something that was easier when a creature was good at upright walking.
Lovejoy heralds the male perntal involvement as a key point of human developemnt for survivla.
What do you amke of this?
Do you think we are distantly related to thee hominids?

Did Cooking Make us More Social? What do you think?

Cooking by Melinda Wenner

Ms. Wenner says that in the beginning we humans had to chew all of our food.
Cooking softens food and breaks down starch adn proteins into more digestible molecules.
according to Richard Wrangham , an anthropologist from Harvard University said that cooking gives us more energy and time to form social realtionships, feed a bigger brain, and to create divisions of labor.
Wrangham beleives that we hammered meat to make it flatter and easier toe at. This caused sparks!
he thinks taht humans enjoyed theri first roast 1.9 billion years ago.

Fisher said that homind brains helped early humans write poetry, perform music and create art some 35,00 years ago...
