Not only does Al Gore stand to profit from a swine flu pandemic
It may have been spliced together in a government lab.
Acting Centers for Disease Control head Richard Besser says that the number of confirmed cases of swine flu is now up to 896 in 41 states.

Four years ago, the CDC admitted it recreated the 1918 “Spanish flu” bug. In an Oct. 5, 2005 press release, CDC announced that using reverse genetics, they had “successfully reconstructed the influenza strain responsible for the 1918 pandemic...[and] determined the set of genes in the 1918 virus that made it so harmful.”

And ecactly which flu strain would that be? A (H1N1) – the same one that’s now threatening to become a global pandemic, according to CDC and the World Health Organization.
In reconstructing the Spanish flu virus, CDC collaborated with the Mount Sinai School of Medicine, the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology, and Southeast Poultry Research Laboratory. Researchers said at the time that “the probability of the 1918 virus re-emerging from a natural source appears to be remote... Since contemporary H1N1 viruses circulate widely and the current annual influenza vaccines contain an H1N1 component, a 1918-like H1N1 virus would not fit the current criteria for a new pandemic strain.”
