BTW, olive leaf extract is an excellent anti-viral. So is Oleander and Colloidal Silver . Should the avian flu ever mutate to human form anti-virals will be essential. Unlike most flus, which prey mostly on the weak and the elderly, the bird flus, like the horrific Spanish Flu of 1918-19, attack the most healthy and robust most of all. We have no natural antibodies for such flus, having not been exposed to them in our lifetime, and so what happens is that our own immune systems kill us by pouring a cascade of chemicals into our lungs trying to beat the flu - and we literally are eaten from the inside out. Those with the strongest immune systems are the ones which will mount the strongest chemical defense. Which is not to say that we should not have a strong immune system, but it MUST be supplemented with anti-virals too.
