Bioterror: a ticking time bomb : Comments

By Peter Curson, published 12/5/2017

Research in science and biotechnology over the last decade has enabled not only advances in medicine and public health, but has also increased the availability of a wide range of pathogens

Yup, and as good a reason as any to reintroduce easy as smallpox vaccinations. We've seen what that lethal pathogen can do to unvaccinated populations, nor are we safe from mutant flues or the plague.

Medicine needs to return almost exclusively to entirely pragmatic prevention, even if that requires removing the hand of big pharma from our compliant pockets, as we're flim-flamed by all encompassing massive misinformation, used to protect profit graphs/curves rather than the national health!?

Very good thoughts well presented. Makes one worry (well, a little).

Three further thoughts. One, Chem-trails, I think these have to do with testing dispersal systems for various agents. Two, I suspect that besides the listed agents there are some new and rather odd agents living in their test tubes. Three, AIDS in Africa - it took the huge potential out of the continent and reduced the profession and leadership groups to an inexperienced mess.

If aids in Africa is a worry, DW, then aids in Canada has to be terrifying? Cause this pathogen doesn't respond well to the usual plethora of antivirals and just mutates and mutates, demanding ever newer, stronger potions.

As big pharma watches with glee as the profit curve heads towards the vertical and liftoff?

There are we're told, over a million known aids suffers in North America, who spend on average, $20,000.00 each per on antivirals, and 20,000 million reasons to just avoid finding the cure?

And what we get when medicine becomes the captive of big business rather than the essential service and vocation it used to be!

A cure could be as simple as applying already approved medications in tandem, as say a reassigned combination of current Leukemia chemo, coupled to a current rheumatoid arthritis remedy?

And applied while the patient is still relatively healthy!

What point would there be in curing the disease and killing the patient?

Some Melbourne PHD research some years ago, would seem to support the possibility of a cure, but faded for lack of adequate funding?
