The Swine Flu and Chiropractic Care
There is great concern worldwide due to the recent Swine Flu. Past history can teach us a great deal as to how to protect ourselves and our loved ones. Consider the statistics from the 1917-1918 Spanish Flu.
"The 1917 - 1918 influenza epidemic swept silently across the world bringing death and fear to homes in every land. Disease and pestilence, especially the epidemics, are little understood even now and many of the factors that spread them are still mysterious shadows, but in 1917-1918 almost nothing was known about prevention, protection, treatment or cure of influenza. The whole world stood at its mercy, or lack of it."
"Reports show that in New York City, during the influenza epidemic of 1918, out of every 10,000 cases medically treated, 950 died; and in every 10,000 pneumonia cases medically treated 6,400 died. These figures are exact, for in that city these are reportable diseases." "In the same epidemic, under drugless methods including Chiropractic care, only 25 patients died of influenza out of every 10,000 cases; and only 100 patients died of pneumonia out of every 10,000 cases.
Chiropractors got fantastic results from influenza patients while those under medical care died like flies all around." "Statistics reflect a most amazing, almost miraculous state of affairs."
What is the lesson here? A healthy nervous system is your number one defense against outside germs and illness such as the flu. Please feel free to ask the Doctor how Chiropractic care can benefit you and your loved ones. |
