Doctors puzzled over bizarre infections in South Texas

[Iroquois]

chiggerbit,<br><br>Many link Lymes Disease to research at the Plum Island Animal Disease Center located off the coast of Long Island.<br><br>This is an excerpt from an article on the subject at ww4report.com, <!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>The Mystery of Plum Island: Nazis, Ticks and Weapons of Mass Infection</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--> by Mark Sanborne.<br><br><!--EZCODE QUOTE START--><blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr>In 1975, a strange disease broke out in Old Lyme, Connecticut, just 10 miles across Long Island Sound from Plum Island. Often initially characterized by a red rash and swollen joints, it afflicted an original cluster of 50 victims, many of them children, who were at first misdiagnosed as having juvenile rheumatoid arthritis.<br><br>It turns out that "Lyme disease"—as it came to be called as cases mounted and spread in the years that followed—is a devious, multi-systemic, inflammatory syndrome that mimics other illnesses by encompassing a range of afflictions, including chronic and crippling pain and fatigue that untreated can spread to organs and the central nervous system, causing depression, palsy, memory loss, psychosis, and even encephalitis and death.<br><br>Such severe outcomes might surprise many Americans, most of whom have heard of Lyme disease but because of the current lack of media attention probably think it's no big deal—unless they know someone who suffers from it. Well guess what? With a quarter century behind the outbreak, Lyme is now the most common vector-borne infection in the United States, and the most common tick-born illness in the world. Yes, you heard that right.<br><br>After spreading out from "ground zero" in the Long Island Sound area, as of mid-April 2006, a total of 267,779 domestic cases of Lyme in 49 states had been reported to the federal Centers for Disease Control. Some experts estimate that, due to Lyme's confusing multiple manifestations, at most only one in 10 cases are recognized and reported to the CDC, so that the total number of victims could be more than 2.68 million. On top of that, a study predicts a one-third increase in the number of cases per year in the U.S. over the 10-year period from 2002 to 2012.<br><hr></blockquote><!--EZCODE QUOTE END--><br><br>The full article can be found here: <!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.ww4report.com/node/1898">www.ww4report.com/node/1898</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--> <p></p><i></i>

Crossposting this response from Jeff's blog page:<br><br>After researching this for some months off & on (how many nightmares can you stand?) reading discussion groups of people who have this disease, and viewing scads of their microscope photographs, and freaking out, then calming down, freaking out again, I had to put it aside. <br><br>But my unscientific conclusion after reading through much too much pain and suffering from these poor folks is that it's either a) a bioweapon being tested on our own populace, just as someon above posted or b) horrific but unintended consequence of bio-engineering the spider-webby cloud-fiber-forming chemtrail mix. If it grows fine in upper atmosphere and at tremendous rates, why wouldn't it grow inside human hosts? <br><br>Whether it's organic or nanotech doesn't matter to people who have it. <br><br>Though I have to say the microscopic evidence seems to point to a very highly adaptive, resistant, multiple-life-cycle-stage parasitic nematode-like thing. Fire up your Rife machines and eat tons of sea salt. The terrifying Wyrm of Olde is back, whether by design or accident.<br><br>All those microbiologists were killed for a reason, and this could be one of the reasons...<br><br>S.<br><br>2:55 PM <p></p><i></i>

Why sea salt (aside from it's obvious health benefits)? Is there something I am overlooking?<br><br> <p></p><i></i>

That's pretty scary in itself though." <br><br>Well, if you found yourself with a case of headlice or crabs, you might be a little more sympathetic towards the people who have contracted this parasite.<br><br>Perhaps one day you will wake up in the middle of the night in the room of a respectable hotel, with the sensation that a million little critters are crawling all over you, and discover that the bed is infested with bedbugs (yes, they still exist, it's not just a nursery rhyme). I can't find the link to this but I read in either the NYT or SFGate about how guests at a high end hotel in SanFran were raising absolute hell about the bedbugs in their rooms. Seems the homeless people were the culprits, bringing in the pests when they entered the lobby to escape the elements.<br><br>After spending more time than I had planned reading about Morgellons and other skin parasites (and finding myself feeling rather antsy), I have to wonder if this situation is a prelude of things to come. That is, opportunistic diseases and parasites finding a whole new playing field of opportunities. Which we are creating for them be it knowingly or unwittingly.<br><br>And those opportunities can be anything from global warming, destruction of natural habitat, genetic mis-engineering, or the impairment of our immune systems. Or all of the above. <br><br>Indescriminate spraying of any chemical into the atmosphere on a large scale now seems criminally irresponsible. Whether to contain mosquito populations or seed clouds to produce rain, these actions seem like a mistake to me.<br><br>It's probably time to reread "Cat's Cradle" and learn about Ice 9 all over again.

Re: Sea Salt, one of the web boards where folks who have contracted this parasite included a series of posts by a man who felt he was gaining relief by taking large doses of salt pills. <br><br>There was some supposition in the same series of posts that the Wyrm of Olde was something opportunistic that might have visited upon populations in ancient days who did not have adequate salt in their diets. And that all the "low salt/no sodium" foods being marketed nowadays had invited this old plague back. Just one theory among many, but it made creepy sense, and was one of the only sets of posts where anything anyone had tried seemd to bring any relief. <br><br>Instead of salt pills, I mentioned Sea Salt as a possible preventative measure. I bought about twenty pounds of it recently in case supply might be interrupted...call me crazy.<br><br>S. <p></p><i></i>

Wow, a simple first link on google of Murdered Microbiologists and there are at least twenty <br><br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://gatorpress.com/badsam/page7.html">gatorpress.com/badsam/page7.html</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--><br><br>can't vouch for the sites reliability though... <p></p><i></i>

[marykmusic]

Somebody suggested Rife machines. Not very many of those around any more. <br><br>But my brother has a viable alternative, available here: <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.worldwithoutparasites.com" target="top">www.worldwithoutparasites.com</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--> It's based on the Dr. Hulda Clark design.<br><br>Dragon and I just did a psychic-warfare session, and this was on the agenda. The CDC is indeed involved, which is why a doctor on the Morgellans' website called them "disengenuous." They KNOW. This is an actual entity, a cellular-structured, propogating creature. It's being "tested" on select urban areas. And yes, chemtrails are the delivery method of choice... --MaryK <p></p><i></i>

[darkbeforedawn]

Mary K very interesting. Can you tell us your source for this? <p></p><i></i>

[marykmusic]

Source for what? My brother's zappers, or our psychic-warfare activities? --MaryK <p></p><i></i>

somebody should figure out what knowledge all these dead microbiologist guys had in common, and then see who is still alive with that same knowledge. Whoever the ones who are still alive work for, will probably have something to do with the assassinations in some form.<br><br>It looks to me like someone is trying to gain a monopoly on a specific microbial knowledge by killing off anyone who has the knowledge, and whom he doesnt own. <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p216.ezboard.com/brigorousintuition.showUserPublicProfile?gid=4911>4911</A> at: 5/15/06 1:58 pm<br></i>

[darkbeforedawn]

How do you know this about the "celluar entity" nature of the disease and the other issues you are talking about. No offence, but I am not too interested in your brother's zappers. <p></p><i></i>

[professorpan]

There's some interesting info here:<br><br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.morgellons.org/">www.morgellons.org/</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--><br><br>And an earlier article from 2004, when I first heard of Morgellon's:<br><br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.rgj.com/news/stories/html/2004/05/08/70309.php">www.rgj.com/news/stories/.../70309.php</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--><br><br>I think the jury's out on this. I have yet to be convinced of the existence of chemtrails, so I think that's a false trail, and I suspect many cases of this disease can be easily explained (delusional parasitosis, known parasites, Lyme Disease, and fungal infections). <br><br>But medicine is often wrong. And medical history is full of cases in which someone has been told they are crazy or their disease is psychosomatic, only to eventually be diagnosed with a previously unknown or unrecognized illness.<br><br>So I'll take a wait-and-see approach to this. <br><br>As for knowledge acquired through remote viewing, well, I put that in the same category as zapping alien bases via buried orgone rods. <br><br>No harm intended, Mary K. <p></p><i></i>

... it was on the local news on FOX !<br>I just about sh*t myself !<br><br>They interviewed Lisa Wilson, who is mentioned on Jeff's "Manifestations" thread, along with her son Travis, whose death they ascribed to having been caused by the meds they used to treat him for Morgellons.<br><br>What was really surprising was that they weren't debunking the disease.<br>They presented one doctor's hypothesis that it is psychosomatic, and that many of the patients have lime disease, but then mentioned that 100 people have been diagnosed with it.<br><br>There was even a woman interviewed (she appeared to be some kind of legit health practitioner) who talked about the "fibers" that emerge from the wounds.<br>She appeared quite lucid and they showed microscopic pictures of the "fibers"; both under the skin of the afflicted and standing alone.<br><br>She talked about how when she tried to remove the fibers, they retreated into the wound, and even the doctor who had hypothesized that it might be "psychosomatic" admitted on film that the fibers found are emerging from the wound, and are not from clothing being worn by those aflicted with the disease. <br><br>Absolutely NO mention of chemtrails, but.....it's a start. <p></p><i></i>
