Under Mr. Patrick’s direction, scientists at Fort Detrick developed a tularemia agent that, if disseminated by airplane, could cause casualties & sickness over 1000s mi². In a 10,000 mi² range, it had 90% casualty rate & 50% fatality rate
1/x Fort Detrick History
Mr. Patrick, one of the chief scientists at the Army Biological Warfare Laboratories at Fort Detrick in Frederick, Md., held five classified US patents for the process of weaponizing anthrax.
Under Mr. Patrick’s direction, scientists at Fort Detrick developed a tularemia agent that, if disseminated by airplane, could cause casualties & sickness over 1000s mi². In a 10,000 mi² range, it had 90% casualty rate & 50% fatality rate

In 1949 the Army created a small team of chemists at "Camp Detrick" called Special Operations Division. Its assignment was to find military uses for toxic bacteria. The coercive use of toxins was a new field, which fascinated Allen Dulles, later head of the CIA
In 1951, Dulles hired a chemist to oversee a systematic search for key to mind control: Sidney Gottlieb, a 33-year-old Jew who limped & stuttered, meditated, lived in a remote cabin without running water & rose before dawn to milk his goats.

7 prisoners in Lexington were given multiple doses of LSD for 77 days straight!
Captured North Koreans were given depressant drugs, then potent stimulants & exposed to intense heat & electroshock while they were in the weakened state of transition
One of the most well-known victims of Gottlieb's experiments was Frank Olson:

In his freezers he kept biological agents that could cause diseases including smallpox, tuberculosis & anthrax as well as organic toxins, including snake venom & paralytic shellfish poison. He developed poisons intended to kill Fidel Castro & Congo's Patrice Lumumba
The US officially abandoned its biological weapons programme in 1969, but Fort Detrick has continued "defensive research" into deadly pathogens including Ebola virus, the plague & poisons like Ricin.

Bruce Ivins, was a senior biological weapons researcher at Fort Detrick. He killed himself in 2008, shortly before the FBI was planning to charge him with the 2001 anthrax attacks.
https://t.co/ALnY6GqWIc
It is ironic that the culprit was a top government anthrax expert: Since 2001, US built many labs, spent over $62 billion, & hired an army of researchers to prevent a 2nd bioterror attack. In effect, devoting 20 years to training & equipping hundreds of people like Ivins!

Keep dwelling on this:
Further Examination of the Motif near PRRA Reveals Close Structural Similarity to the SEB Superantigen as well as Sequence Similarities to Neurotoxins and a Viral SAg.
The insertion PRRA together with 7 sequentially preceding residues & succeeding R685 (conserved in β-CoVs) form a motif, Y674QTQTNSPRRAR685, homologous to those of neurotoxins from Ophiophagus (cobra) and Bungarus genera, as well as neurotoxin-like regions from three RABV strains
(20) (Fig. 2D). We further noticed that the same segment bears close similarity to the HIV-1 glycoprotein gp120 SAg motif F164 to V174.

A pathetic digestive biscuit munching bunch of British Berks from civvy street whose badge dishonours the Chindits.
Sleazy Media Manipulators who usually fail to deliver "influencing activity & products" to counter narratives of others
“If everybody is thinking alike then somebody isn’t thinking”
Just about sums up their Covid-19 "narrative"
“Behavioural change is our USP [unique selling point]”
They fail every time, doubt they could even sell their asses to soldiers at Denison Barracks
More on this pathetic bunch of Trolls scrounging a living from honest taxpayers' money to sell offal scraped off the Butcher's
Why are these little British trolls all over Twitter lately?
The have been ordered to counter "Covid- 19 Myths"

1. The "Bioweapons" Labs Narrative is Getting Hotter
The main point is that DTRA & the Pentagon scored an own goal by funding, transforming and modernising so many biosafety labs in ex Soviet
2. The US has left itself wide open to black propaganda campaigns built on popular fear .
This has become amplified since the coronavirus pandemic
Also considering revelations of dangerous bat virus research with US funding of labs in China & West

Recently, the @CNIL issued a decision regarding the GDPR compliance of an unknown French adtech company named "Vectaury". It may seem like small fry, but the decision has potential wide-ranging impacts for Google, the IAB framework, and today's adtech. It's thread time! 👇
It's all in French, but if you're up for it you can read:
• Their blog post (lacks the most interesting details): https://t.co/PHkDcOT1hy
• Their high-level legal decision: https://t.co/hwpiEvjodt
• The full notification: https://t.co/QQB7rfynha
I've read it so you needn't!
Vectaury was collecting geolocation data in order to create profiles (eg. people who often go to this or that type of shop) so as to power ad targeting. They operate through embedded SDKs and ad bidding, making them invisible to users.
The @CNIL notes that profiling based off of geolocation presents particular risks since it reveals people's movements and habits. As risky, the processing requires consent — this will be the heart of their assessment.
Interesting point: they justify the decision in part because of how many people COULD be targeted in this way (rather than how many have — though they note that too). Because it's on a phone, and many have phones, it is considered large-scale processing no matter what.
