Contracting
Anthrax Through the Mail
What
are the odds?
Currently
there are two missing components in the equation:
- How
many Letters have been sent
- How
much anthrax was in them
Here is what we do know:
- Some
of the anthrax sent has been determined to be of “professional grade”.
- Prior
to September 11 Anthrax could easily be shipped commercially into the US
through normal channels by mislabeling.
- A
single gallon of professional grade Anthrax developed in the USA can contain
eight billion lethal doses, enough to kill every man woman, and child on
the planet ----
- A
single loosely sealed letter can contaminate everything it touches, including
the air around it whether opened or not.
- Your
letter need not be deliberately contaminated to be a carrier; it may have
simply been in the vicinity of the “carrier letter”.
- It
is unlikely you will know you have been infected until after contracting
the disease.
- Spores
have been known to have an incubation period as long as two months.
- If
appropriate antibiotics are not started before development of symptoms,
the mortality rate is estimated to be 90%
- In
nature, anthrax is enormously resistant to destruction. During World War
II, Britain tested anthrax-laden explosives at Gruinard Island off Scotland.
The spores were still viable four decades later
- Spores
can only be destroyed by steam sterilization or burning. Disinfectants
won't work.
- Shutting
down the US Postal Service will have a devastating effect on the US Economy.
Is your Drinking
Water Safe?
At this very minute someone could be pumping any number
of contaminants through a regular hose faucet attached to their house and
infecting everyone downstream. You
be the judge.
Our whole social infrastructure is built on trust; unfortunately
we didn’t factor in Suicidal Terrorists bent on the destruction of civilization.
Here are three practical things we can do:
- Replace
Postal Mail with Email and the Internet.
(For secure email services see http://www.mailguard.org/mail_security.htm
)
- Buy
a good water distiller (to see an example of some that work see http://www.mailguard.org/water_distillers.htm
- Avoid
crowded or commercially important enclosed areas with forced air systems
that might attract Terrorists.
- Above
all THINK FOR YOURSELF! We
must remember, the Governments primary concern is to protect the economy.
We have become involuntary soldiers in this war on terrorism and
like any soldier on the front lines information is intentionally withheld
from us so that we will perform our task.
Individually we have become nothing but a number and as such are
expendable. The media aside
from its own self-interest is force fed the information it disseminates. The only way we can protect ourselves and those who depend
on us in the current situation is to take the relevant facts that we are
given and apply some introspection.
Don’t let someone else do your thinking!
