Whistleblower Report – Lyme, the “Itsy Bitsy Tick”: Another Perfect Bioweapon

By Major Mike Gary and Elizabeth Lee Vliet MD

3/5/24

COVID is far from the first time our government agencies have been acting as mad scientists in taxpayer-funded bioresearch laboratories experimenting with dangerous pathogens.  In the 1970’s Army researchers were experimenting with pathogens at the Plum Island Animal Disease Center in Long Island Sound, when inadequate filtration maintenance resulted in an outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) that led to the emergency killing and burning of more than 72,000 pounds of live cows, sheep, goats and other animals in just 48 hours. There was a massive cover-up at the time of the destruction of these animals and the disease outbreak.

Plum Island is the only location in the United States where research on the foot and mouth virus was legally permitted. While the virus is not fatal to humans, people who have come in contact with it can readily transmit it to animals, who become seriously debilitated and suffer lameness, fever, and painful vesicular lesions on the tongue, feet, snout, and teats. Although FMD does not result in high mortality in adult animals, the disease has debilitating effects, including weight loss, decrease in milk production, and loss of muscle strength and lameness, resulting in a loss in productivity for a considerable time. Mortality, however, can be high in young animals, where the virus can affect the heart. In addition, cattle, sheep, and goats can become carriers, and cattle can harbor virus for up to 2 to 3 years. Contaminated food, water and soil can also spread the disease.  (See link for article)

_______________

SUMMARY:

  • FMD affects cloven-hoofed livestock and more than 70 species of wild animals including deer.
  • The disease was shown to be caused by a filterable agent in 1897 which ushered in the era of virology.
  • Outbreaks have occurred worldwide.
  • Lyme disease appeared in the same decade and same region as FMD.
  • FMD easily infects animals that in turn can infect ticks.
  • Lyme disease was initially thought to be caused by a virus, then a rickettsial helvetica called ‘Swiss Agent,’ then ultimately Borrelia burgdorferi or Lyme disease.
  • The book Lab 257 expresses a well-researched account of the mad science happening at the Plum Island Animal Disease Center. It also highlights whistle blower Merlon Wiggins’ documentation of dangerous lab practices. Merlon was persecuted and eventually removed from the lab as the Chief Engineer.
  • While the infamous lab claims it never performed research on Lyme, it also denied for decades that it performed biological warfare experiments until Newsday unearthed previously classified documents proving such experiments took place.  New York Times confirmed it as well.
  • Lyme is only one of four infectious disease outbreaks that have occurred by Plum Island.  Others were:
    • Dutch duck plague virus in the 1960’s
    • Lyme disease in 1975
    • FM outbreak in 1978 & two more outbreaks in 2004 – both at the Plum Island Animal Disease Center
    • West Nile virus in 1999
    • and the mysterious 1999 disease that killed most of the lobsters in Long Island Sound
