Swine Flu: Nothing to Sneeze At
This country has got me going crazy! Swine Flu this, vaccinate that. I even heard that some hospitals are making it mandatory for their employees to get the H1N1 (swine flu) shot. But you better believe that if the employee gets the flu after that shot, the hospital will not pay for lost wages. It just doesn't make sense. We are still so caught on a quick fix society, that we are driving ourselves deeper into sickness and despair.
Many Americans do not know that we have been through pandemics like this before. Like the Spanish flu which killed over 20 million people. Interestingly enough, In Davenport, Iowa 50 medical doctors cared for 4,953 cases with 274 deaths. Also in Davenport, 150 chiropractors saw 1,635 cases with only one death. In the state of Iowa, medical doctors treated 93,590 patients, with 6,116 deaths, a loss of one patient out of every 15. In the same state, excluding Davenport, 4,735 patients were seen by chiropractors with a loss of only six patients – a loss of one patient out of every 789.National figures show that 1,142 chiropractors cared for 46,394 for influenza during 1918, with a loss of 54 patients – one out of every 859.
In New York City, 950 out of 10,000 cases died with medical methods while 25 out of 10,000 died using drugless methods.Yes, the medical profession was seeing a majority of the worst of the worst; however, one of the greatest statistics backing chiropractic care comes from the state of Oklahoma. There were 233 cases in which the medical doctors had cared for patients and eventually pronounced them as “lost” or “beyond hope”… chiropractors took care of all 233 with only 25 deaths.
So you're telling me that an adjustment could be more beneficial than a shot of poison? Makes sense doesn't it. So the question remains, when push comes to shove, what's it going to be for your family: Safe, natural, and effective chiro care.... or shots of a flu shot that was developed 6 months ago and has not been tested. If you know someone who you think would be a good candidate for our "flu adjustments" please send them our way.
Until next rant,
