13 Year Old Toronto Boy Dies of H1N1

13-year-old Evan Frustaglio died on Monday,October 26 and it has been confirmed that he had H1N1 infection. The media is using the fact that he played in a hockey tournament after falling ill as proof of his good health and are using this to push the notion that any healthy child may die ofswine flu at any time and that all healthy children should be vaccinated. However, strenuous exercise during influenza infection is known to increase mortality.

A while ago,I had found awebsite promoting flu vaccine, which included an article about a 15-year-old boy who had developedsevere compartment syndrome and died after engaging in strenuous exercise while suffering from influenza. Because he wasfoundto have influenza, the site authors conclude the solution would beto vaccinate all children,while disregarding the role thatexercise played. I will post a link if I find this website.

Compartment syndrome:

Rhabdomyolysis:
Compartment syndrome is a clinical diagnosis (i.e. no tests conclusively prove its presence or absence), but direct measurement of the pressure in a fascial compartment may be used to assess its severity. Values of 3050 mmHg (46.5 kPa) indicate severe compartment syndrome and possible need for fasciotomy, which is an incision to relieve increased pressure.[3]

I'm not sure if you had posted the updates.....but.....I am a parent and I would NEVER have an autopsy done on my child. But most parents do, so thats probly why they used this case.

@preludenettyandretty As a parent, I can understand not wanting an autopsy. I respect their coice. I just think it is radical to conclude H1N1 caused the death and to use it as an example to promote vaccination of all healthy children, especially when doctors later came forth and stated that the symptoms were consistent with meningitis, not influenza (stuff neck, dead 48 hours later). Maybe more awareness should have been raised about meningitis instead.

This is why you should get the H1N1 shots... they dont hurt it feels like a bug bite.. It helps if you start to sing to the person beside you... and my bro was ;)

[thetruthergirls]

You got the shot? hope things work out for you.

Evan likely died of meningitis, according to doctors who evaluated what happened. He had stiff neck and was dead 48 hours later. That's what happens with meningitis, not flu. Flu shot prevents flu, but somehow doesn't lower rates of hospitalization and death, days missed at work, etc. I don't know why. Something is missing, though.

Ok, we all know that you're smart, articulate, etc, but if you would walk around a little wearing shorts your hits would quadruple.

Just 'sayin...

Watch the history channels documentary on human experiments by the goverment on youtube, then see how good you feel about taking a shot so forcefully reccomended by the goverment and not by most responsible doctor's

[aaron4801]

All courtesy of the government.

The scientists who make these vaccines and flu shots ADMIT that they're worse for you then the actual disease or flu that it "prevents." And yet brainwashed, unaware people continue to get them. And it's your own fault if something happens to you because you were dumb enough to let doctors inject you with shit that you don't even know what it contains.

I've always heard doctors say when one has a cold/flue, "Drink plenty of liquids and get plenty of rest." I'm getting over a virus infections and I drink lots of water, ozonated water included, and colloidal silver, and getting plenty of rest. THAT'S IT. The lady is right. She knows.
