U.S. Bio-Security Officials Sound Warning After Scientists Create Deadly New Strain of Bird Flu
The U.S. government is sounding the alarm after reports that Dutch scientists have created a highly-contagious and deadly airborne strain of bird flu that is potentially capable of killing millions, The Independent reported Tuesday.
The U.S. National Science Advisory Board for Biosecurity is currently analyzing how much of the scientists’ information should be allowed to be published—given the inherent risks of having the information fall into the hands of terrorists or rogue states.
“The fear is that if you create something this deadly and it goes into a global pandemic, the mortality and cost to the world could be massive,” a senior US government adviser told The Independent.
Scientists, too, are questioning whether the science should ever have been performed in the first place.
“There are people who say that the work should never have been done, or if it was done it should have been done in a setting where the information could be better controlled,” a source close to the US biosecurity board told the newspaper.
“With influenza now it is possible to reverse engineer the virus. It’s pretty common technology in many parts of the world. With the genomic sequence, you can reconstruct it. That’s where the information is dangerous.”

The mutated form of the H5N1 strain of avian influenza was created by a Dutch team of scientists led by Ron Fouchier, of Rotterdam‘s Erasmus Medical Centre, and the researchers are now hoping to publish the details of how they developed the new strain.
The new virus differs from H5N1—which is only known to be transmitted between humans who have very close contact with each other—because it can be transmitted through the air in coughs and sneezes.

Fouchier, who declined to answer The Independent’s questions, said in a statement that it only took a small number of mutations to change the avian flu virus.
“We have discovered that this is indeed possible, and more easily than previously thought. In the laboratory, it was possible to change H5N1 into an aerosol-transmissible virus that can easily be rapidly spread through the air,” he said.

Good catch! I’ve got an article that I posted on my blog about an oil supply decrease that will reduce world population by 92% also if you’re interested.

So if the bible is a mind control tool-like so many people claim it is, and that if we get the chip we go to hell-according to the bible…
Then doesn’t it seem rational that the best way to reduce population is through a religious/technological movement?
I mean first of all… how did people WAY back then know what a bar code was? or a chip?
Second… Wouldnt it seem logical that the people who translated the new testament with the chip idea are the same people who want the One World Order?
Is the best way to turn people against eachother is through a religious war? Its Technology VS God…. That seems like a pretty well thought out plan to turn humanity against itself so that the government has a rational reason to wipe us out.
Example: They could probably say that people who help those who dont have the chip, get persecuted.
Wow… what a way to destroy us.
But what do you All think? Throw out there what you think the possibilities are.
Huh?
