Major Ed Dames stated on the Art Bell Show that the aliens were sending a flu that would wipe out the human race... or at least deplete it by a sizable amount...

Is this report, distinguished astrophysicist Sir Fred Hoyle, and his colleague at Cardiff university, Chandra Wickramasinghe, warn that we may be on the brink of a global epidemic sent to earth from outer space!

Could Sir Hoyle be confirming Major Dames prediction?

The article inserted below states that a virus has come to earth from meteors.

In the past few days, ice chunks the size of basketballs have fallen in Spain. Scientists have confirmed that the ice comes from meteors.

We need to keep an eye on Spain. If Spain suddenly reports a "meteoric" rise in flu cases, then I think Dr Hoyle and his Cardiff colleagues may be on to something, and Major Ed Dames prediction of an alien attack may be ominously correct.

Flu comes from outer space, claim scientists

Flu epidemic: special report

Stuart Millar Wednesday January 19, 2000

It made the festive season a misery for many and threw NHS policy into crisis. But the flu may have worse in store, according to scientists who claim to have discovered an alarming explanation for the epidemic - a virus from outer space. Dismissing as dogma the conventional medical wisdom that flu is a virus passed by human contact, the distinguished astrophysicist Sir Fred Hoyle, and his colleague at Cardiff university, Chandra Wickramasinghe, warn that we may be on the brink of a global epidemic.

In a report to be published in the journal Current Science, they claim the outbreak was caused by dust deposited high in the atmosphere by passing comets being forced down to earth by energy generated by cooler patches on the sun's surface, known as sunspots.

They reach the peak of their activity, the maxima, every 11 years, coinciding, the scientists say, with all major flu outbreaks since 1761, including the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic blamed for 20m deaths worldwide. The latest cycle began to peak in September and the maxima is due sometime this year.
