Default Swine flu cures/antidotes

Apparently "Thieves vinegar" is what the thieves used during the Spanish influenza to raid houses of dead people without catching it. Cupid stunt does not condone raiding dead peoples houses.

"1 Gal. glass jar
4 Qt. organic apple cider vinegar
Funnel, non-aluminum
To store finished product: brown, green or cobalt glass bottles

Organic Herbs:
1 oz. clove powder
1 oz. lavender
1 oz. lemon balm
1 oz. oregano
1 oz. rosemary
1 oz sage
1oz. thyme
1-2 bulbs organic garlic, peeled, sliced through, any green (bitter) sprouting removed

Put herbs & garlic in gallon jar; top up with vinegar (it will take ~3 1/2 Qt. ) Cover jar opening with waxed paper and lid, or hold waxed paper in place with tight rubber band. (Vinegar fumes may otherwise corrode metal lid.) Let steep for 6-8 weeks, stirring once a week with a wooden spoon. Pour through strainer into large non-metal bowl or pot. Using non-metal ladle and funnel, pour into brown, green or cobalt bottles. (Well-washed olive oil bottles work well.) Store in a cool place, root cellar, or fridge.

There are several versions of Thieves Vinegar. The above recipe is pleasant to take and can be effective for symptoms of cold, fever and flu, or to have on hand in the event of scarier scenarios. The aromatic vinegar can be taken daily as a tonic and preventative, or more frequently after onset of illness. Take 1 tsp Thieves Vinegar and 1 tsp honey in a glass of water first thing in the morning (or, use 1 tsp maple syrup, which dissolves more readily.) Children could be given 1/4 - 1/2 tsp Thieves Vinegar in a glass or baby bottle of juice.

"Thieves" helps restore and maintain healthy digestion and elimination, and can help protect travelers from the tiresome, lingering infections now so common after plane flights.


A Variation
our Thieves Vinegar Recipe: Use equal parts of the following herbs:
Lavender
Sage
Thyme
Melissa (lemon balm)
Hyssop
Peppermint
A handful of garlic cloves

Blend ingredients in a glass jar and cover completely with organic, unpasteurized apple cider vinegar, which is available in most health food stores. Cold infuse (let sit at room temperature in a cool place) for six weeks and then strain off herbs and garlic.

You can take Four Thieves Vinegar by the teaspoonful, use it as a salad dressing, or even add a spoonful to your bath water for personal protection. Four Thieves Vinegar and warmed organic coconut oil make an excellent salad dressing.

You can also use it as a topical spray to disinfect surfaces -- including skin -- and/or you can take it as a tincture. All of the ingredients in Four Thieves Vinegar are either potent antibacterials or antivirals!
"

Failing that Vitamin C, Honey & Cinnamon should help.

Wearing a mask wont stop you catching it...

Apparently swine flu kills people with healthy, robust immunes systems. Finally, it pays off being sickly.

edit: fuck.

drink water. Eat well. Wash hands frequently. Sleep regularly. Accomodate physical exhaustion. Don't do drugs the use of which invoke symptoms which inhibit adherence to these guidelines.

How do we know that the 'Thieves vinegar' did them any good? After all they tried to ward of the black death by putting flowers under the nose. Perhaps the thieves did catch it and recovered gaining immunity like 99% of the other people. I guess some of these things could have anti-viral properties, and even survive stomach acid, yet then why are they not being marketed and why do they not work on other virus related disease such as AIDS.
