Dear Mr. Moran, have you ever seen anyone who was treated with Chiropractic,
while suffering the "Flu"? If you have not, then you simply blow smoke, as
you have NO evidence to the contrary.

That is a lie. I asked you several times to back up claims that you made,

Did China have a problem with the "Great Flu Epidemic"? If not, why? Might
it be that the Chinese had effective methods to deal with such?

However, according to:

http://chnm.gmu.edu/features/voices/ww1flu/listeningtowwith.html

"The Spanish influenza was not limited to the United States and Europe. It
took hold in North Africa as early as May, Russia in June, India in July,
and then China, New Zealand, and the Philippines in the next few months."

You should do a bit of reading on the net and see that it seems that China
is the source of most flu strains.

(No, I will not give you another URL, as you have yet to demonstrate that
you even bother to read them.)

Now, can YOU document that the Flu Pandemic was as you claim in China?
Remember, this is a claim that YOU made, and your proof is to be readily
available, and verifiable. "My mommy told me so" is not proof.

Maybe people experiencing influenza would much rather stay at home in bed
than go to a chiropractor's office. And I suspect those chiropractic
patients who are there for treatment of idiopathic back pain (for which
there's a bit of evidence that chiropractic is helpful) are rather glad
that the flu patients don't show up.

Quoted message said:

The paragraph from Dr. Harte's "essay" concerning the 1918 Influenza
Epidemic:

"The Great Pandemic of 1918 ws the greatest plague of modern times. It
is estimated to have killed between 25 million and 40 million people
worldwide, about half a million in this country. History shows us that
those under chiropractic car during the flu pandemic had a far better
chance of survival. One example: medical doctors in Davenport Iowa
treated 93,590 patients, with 6,116 deaths---in other words 1 out of 15
succumbed to the flu. At The Palmer College of Chiropractic in
Davenport, 1635 flu cases were adjustd, with only one fatility. Outside
of Davenport, chiropractors adjusted 4,735 flu cases, wit only six
deaths--1 out of 866. In 1919, Palmer published "The Flu & You". The
ratio of flu cases cared for versus deaths wee as follw: Medical care:
1 out of 17 died. Osteopathic care: 1 out of 36 died. Chiropractic
care: 1 out of 886."

My research: According to te 1920 US census, Iowa had a population of
2.4 million citizens, while Davenport, Iowa had a population of
approximately 54,000. Although I can't find how many "medical doctors"
practiced in Davenport in 1918, it seems like it would have had to have
been a pretty large number to "see" 93,590 patients over a perhaps a
five month period, with the majority of cases popping up in maybe only
three of those five months.

Additionally, according to a recent article in the Des Moines, Iowa
Register, there were approximatly 6,500 deaths attributed to the 1918
Influenza Epidemic in ALL of Iowa. If Dr. Harte's figures are correct
than Davenport would have had to have been the "epicenter" of that
calamity, with only 2% of the population, but 94% of the deaths.

Now you know exactly how easy it is to fool some people. Jan Drew and her
loathsome ilk can't be bothered to check for plausibility much less accuracy.
All you need to do is repeat the lie enough and it takes on a life of its own.
Its also the reason they so greatly resent anyone challenging their assertions,
they have seen so many of their basic tenets fall apart under skeptical
examination like a kleenex at a snot party.

Yet one more historical note on the 1918 World-Wide Influenza Pandemic:

The Homeopathic community has also always claimed extreme success in
that epidemic (now apparently along with chiropractory), though their
models of choice were a city in Connecticut & one in Illinois, rather
than Davenport, Iowa. Apparently, it was claimed that nobody (or almost
nobody) died who was homeopathically treated. (I forget the name of
diluted potion they use for the flu even to this day).

However, by far, that 1918 epidemic hit India the hardest, killing
about 20 million people. Interestingly, India had (& continues to have)
a HUGE HUGE homeopathic tradition with dispenseries all over that
country, from the smallest villages to the largest cities since the
early 1900's, which certainly would have been in place in 1918. I have
to wonder what went wrong.

Uh huh.

Nonsense. What possible relevance would that have? Most patients with the

life?

Only well-designed prospective studies could show that spinal manipulation
reduces mortality from the flu.

Why bother? It is a completely implausible idea, and and there are even
very few chiropractors daring to make such claims.

Then why did you say that I made a claim?
As for implications, you may read into it what you want. And it is evident
that you do a lot of "reading into"
We are TOLD that many strains originate in China. You, nor I, do not KNOW
that to be true.
Who said "special"?
Sars may have just as likely originated in some lab somewhere far from
China. You, nor I, do not KNOW for sure.
You are not doing well in this debate, perhaps you should drop it.
