American Civil war
Out of a total of 359,528 Union deaths from all causes, 110,070 were from combat but 224,586 were from disease. Of the deaths from disease, 44,000 were from "diarrhea and dysentery, acute and chronic" and 34,883 were from "typhoid, typho-malarial, and continued fevers." By contrast, the total number of deaths arising from combat at the Battle of Gettysburg for the Union army is only 3,155 and for the Confederate army is only 3,903.8

Those who moralize about the piles of dead at Bergen-Belsen and Dachau should consider Andersonville where 7,712 men died in six months out of an average of only 19,453 held. The Northern prison camps were also terrible. The "average number" of Confederates held in prisons by the North is 40,815 of whom 18,784 died.12 Only 252 Confederates held in Northern prisons died from wounds whereas 5,965 died from diarrhea and dysentery.

For the Mexican War (1846-48), the ratio of fatalities from disease to fatalities from wounds is even worse. 1,549 were killed or died from their wounds; 10,951 died of disease.

During the Crimean War (1854-56), 12,604 men in the French army died from wounds whereas 59,815 died from sickness. For the English, 4,602 died from wounds whereas 17,225 died from sickness. By contrast, although 35,671 Russians died from wounds, only 37,454 died from sickness.

Vitamin D in doses of 4000 iu per day in clinical studies here in Canada reduced cancer rates by up to 70% in some cases.It's also known to fight viral infections.It is common knowledge that most people get the flu in the winter when exposure to the sun is very limited.Sunlight helps us to make vitamin D,I'm sure that fact has been overlooked by alot of people,also try biting a little skin off the inside of your lip just before you eat an orange,you will get a tingling feeling from the orange juice helping repair the damage. Try some vitamin D for a couple of days and you will feel the difference in no time.That little bit of info will help alot of people and at the same time make the elite plans for a flu virus to kill us "infected free thinkin' radicals " as well as the rest of the sheep and cattle less effective.So to recap,the flu is a virus,vitamin D helps kills most viruses,our bodies are low on vitamin D in winter because of a lack of sunshine,flu season runs from fall to spring,the suns rays are weakest during those months.Everybody wake up and smell the sweet sunshine.Hopefully that will tie everything together for David also,cheers young fella for puttin' the forum together.Thanx 4 welcoming everyone into the light, free of charge of course.
