2/2 It's common for nations to store samples of diseases (even ones for which cures exist e.g. smallpox) There's no evidence of developing "bio weapons" But I laugh most at the error-strewn map of Ukraine, with Kyiv moved 300km south to Pervomaisk, while Cherniv is not a place

I think it’s important to know if there are biolabs in unstable countries that we created. After all COVID was such a raging success. 😝that was a mild pathogen that escaped and look at the disaster it created. Smallpox. Ebola, Hantavirus much more deadly.

I do embrace white history. The global wars, cointelpro, gifting smallpox laced blankets to the native Americans the destruction of black Wall Street etc. Blacks also participated in building this country. If you don’t want to accept that you are likewise invited back to Europe.

Meanwhile, said pig skins land in South America to find a country bathing in human sacrifice, ritualistic child exportation & abuse and death, oh, and they also enslaved each other. Smallpox was a gift from the gods

I like how KSR contrives the flow of the history to get the Native Americans to smallpox inocculation and gunmaking factories before its too late for them

I just sent Baraa money for her medication, but she's now in the hospital with smallpox, so she's going to need more medication, as well as healthy food and vitamins to recover her strength. She urgently needs $300; please help her raise it.
I need your help to buy medication so I can recover. I'm suffering from severe muscle spasms, a feverish flu, and bone pain. I need your help to buy medication; please don't ignore me. 😭😭 chuffed.org/project/131126-h…

Anthrax, not smallpox

Because for 99% of history, half of all children didn't make it to adulthood. They died of measles, mumps, polio, smallpox, and an assortment of other nasty diseases we can now avoid with a quick jab and maybe a day or two of drag. But because of illiterate numbnuts like you,

It wasn't biological warfare. We didn't even have a proven germ theory of disease until the late 19th century. Diseases went both ways. Smallpox went from Europe to the Americas, but syphilis went from the Americas to Europe. Also, smallpox doesn't have an animal vector.

COVID-19 was a terrible bioweapon. Ideal bioweapons: *target military-aged populations preferentially *produce death, or incapacitation for weeks in a majority of cases *are stable enough that you can vaccinate your own populations against them, or protect with antibiotic regimen Examples: Q fever, anthrax, smallpox, tularemia, staph B endotoxin. COVID-19 did none of these things. -fatalities primarily in end-of-life populations or those with serious comorbidities -vast majority of those infected were not killed or incapacitated -highly unstable and mutable virus, no effective way to vaccinate non-target populations COVID-19 was almost assuredly a lab leak of an intermediate work product of a live virus intended to be used on bat populations to improve bat resistance to coronaviruses in general. This is what the lead scientist on the project was trying to produce, and the net effect of the most common ‘final form’ of COVID during the pandemic, the Omicron variant. It did for human what the goal was for bats: highly transmissible, much less pathogenic but able to produce an effective immune response. Once Omicron was the dominant strain, hospitalizations dropped dramatically.

Trump also needs a justification to suspend elections in the United States. Otherwise the Democrats will take control of Congress and he will be removed from office and sent to prison. The Russians are going to release smallpox. Fuck, now *I'm* gonna have a panic attack.
