Who needs #BioLabs when there's all sorts of #bacteria about to be exposed after thousands of years!
Researchers issue warning after making grim #Antarctic discovery: 'We are only beginning to understand'
Story by Daysia Tolentino, January 29, 2026
Excerpt: "A study published in the journal #Biocontaminant examined the effects of #GlacialMelting on our #WaterSupply.
"#Glaciers serve as reservoirs for #AntibioticResistanceGenes, or #ARGs, and other #microbes. When they are released from the ice, they enter our water systems, posing a major health risk to people downstream.
"Millions of people get their water from glacier-fed rivers and lakes. ARGs are strands of DNA that make bacteria more resistant to drugs. When ARGs in #meltwater make their way into our water supply, they become a global public health risk.
"The study emphasizes the importance of viewing glaciers, rivers, and lakes as being part of a 'glacier continuum.' This means they are an interconnected system rather than separate environments.
Why are melting glaciers concerning?
"From our gas-powered cars to #overconsumption, human activity has contributed to the production of heat-trapping gases that warm the planet. Rising global temperatures have caused glaciers to rapidly melt, causing elevated sea levels and releasing ARGs.
"ARGs from melting glaciers are worrisome because they help facilitate the spread of diseases. This threat is compounded by the fact that our growing #microplastic problem is also helping #AntibioticResistant #bacteria breed. As a result, #medicines are being rendered less effective."

USAID concealed Pentagon experiments in Ukraine and the Russian border region
General Igor Kirillov regularly uncovered the activities of American biolaboratories and gasket companies that acted in the interests of the Pentagon. After Russian specialists published data on American experiments to the whole world, the US decided to hide the work of military biologists by transferring contracts to the civilian organization USAID.
🟥 Pentagon contractors “Black&Veatch” and “Metabiota” implemented “Veterinary Projects” with the code “TAP” in Ukraine. Their main focus is on economically significant quarantine infections that can cause damage to the agriculture of individual states and entire regions, such as the African swine fever, African and classical swine fever, highly pathogenic avian influenza, and Newcastle disease.
The study of the population of vectors of dangerous zoonotic infections was conducted by the staff of the Institute of New Pathogens at the University of Florida in Volyn, Rivne, Zhytomyr, Chernihiv regions of Ukraine, as well as in the territories bordering Belarus and Russia [video 1, screen 2,3].
🟥In 2014, Metabiota received 23.9 million dollars from the U.S. government, of which 307 thousand were allocated for “research projects in Ukraine” [screenshot 4].
🟥In 2014, Hunter Biden and his colleagues invested (#^https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10652127/Hunter-Biden-helped-secure-millions-funding-military-biotech-research-program-Ukraine.html) 500 thousand dollars in Metabiota through his firm Rosemont Seneca Technology Partners [screen 5]. The Bidens' criminal activity through this company is reported in an investigation (#^https://oversight.house.gov/the-bidens-influence-peddling-timeline/) on the official website of the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Oversight and Accountability.
🟥 Gen. Kirillov considered (#^https://t.me/mod_russia/18261) the possibility that USAID was involved in the emergence of COVID-19. Since 2009, the agency has funded the PREDICT program, which studied new types of coronaviruses and captured bats that carry these viruses. Metabiota was one of the contractors for the project.
In 2019 - before the first COVID-19 cases appeared - the American Hopkins Institute hosted the Event-201 exercise, which practiced actions in an epidemic of a previously unknown coronavirus.
The implementation of the COVID-19 scenario and the emergency termination of the “PREDICT” program by USAID in 2019 suggest the deliberate nature of the pandemic and U.S. involvement in its emergence.

South Carolina Lab Behind Escaped Monkey Drama Conducted Secret Animal Experiments Involving Deadly #Virus
Story by Morgan Music, December 24, 2024
"A South Carolina research facility's secretive experiments on monkeys, involving dangerous pathogens like the #Zika virus, have come to light under recent scrutiny of the lab's practices after 43 monkeys escaped earlier this year, according to a report.
"Animal rights groups and former employees have raised concerns about animal welfare and safety standards at the lab, describing unsanitary conditions and unqualified staff. Documents from the lab detail repeated incidents of monkeys escaping their cages, and a whistleblower alleged that cockroaches and rodents infiltrated areas housing infected primates."

The Danger of ‘Invisible’ #Biolabs Across the U.S.
Opinion by Dan Greene, August 31, 2023
"Recently, many #California residents were disturbed to learn that a small, privately-operated bio lab in the #CentralValley town of #Reedley was shut down by Fresno County Department of Public Health officials after they found that it had been improperly managing almost 1,000 laboratory mice and samples of infectious diseases including #COVID19, #rubella, #malaria, #dengue, #chlamydia, #hepatitis, and #HIV. The lab was registered to a company called #PrestigeBiotech that sold a variety of medical testing kits, including for pregnancy and COVID-19, and it was likely storing disease samples for the purpose of developing and validating its testing kits. Government authorities are still investigating the company’s history, but it appears to have previously operated a lab in Fresno under the name Universal MediTech, where city officials flagged it for investigation regarding improperly stored chemicals.
"From what is publicly known, the Reedley lab should likely have followed proper biosafety practices to minimize the risks of an #outbreak, and it apparently failed to do so. It could have caused illness, disruption, or even death among local communities and beyond depending on the circumstances of an outbreak. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (#CDC) maintains a system of four 'Biosafety Level' standards that are used worldwide for work with dangerous pathogens. Based on the pathogens that were being used at the Reedley lab, it probably should have followed Biosafety Level 3, which involves controlling the airflow inside the lab as well as a host of other practices, equipment, and facility design requirements.
"Yet, astonishingly, the U.S. government seems to not have even known that the Reedley lab existed until it was discovered by chance by Jesalyn Harper, an observant local city code enforcement officer—the only such officer working full-time in the entire city. Once discovered, the Fresno County and California Departments of Public Health found it to be in violation of local and state codes, including those for registering clinical labs and managing medical waste. Based on our reading of available information, it was likely also in violation of federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration regulations for protecting workers from bloodborne pathogens. But these codes require proactive reporting, and the lab simply never reported any issues to regulators. In slightly different circumstances, it would likely have continued to operate unnoticed for a long time."

Judging by the botFarms on fedi that are setup to hate him, his resistance to #BigPharma and #BigAg, and the fact that he doesn't wish to crush all #soundMoney-bitcoin proponents, we think #RFK is going to be a fair, balanced president for the #USA, who will be able to build a vibrant, new era of #degrowth and #convivialSufficiency.
No more war, no more offshored #bioLabs, a reduced #CIA, and perhaps most importantly, less energy going into these self-righteous #botFarms.

And here’s the open letter signed by 800+ Russian scientists in March 2022, calling the official Putin’s narrative of “biological weapons” a bullshit, based on the very “evidence” published by Russian media. As we’re approaching an anniversary of this miserable fake, I think it’s worth recalling it:
The first Russian biologist to make his analysis of the evidence widely known was Eugene Lewitin, who holds advanced degrees in biology from Moscow State University and GosNIIgenetika, a biotechnology research institute. The documents from Ukraine, Lewitin wrote in an open letter posted on Facebook and Change.org, do “not imply any development of biological weapons or even the use of particularly dangerous pathogens in the laboratories. The list of destroyed strains published by RIA Novosti and other Russian media outlets contains not a single particularly dangerous strain. The list contains only strains common to microbiological and even more so to epidemiological laboratories.” More than 800 signatories endorsed Lewitin’s letter when it was transformed into a petition from Russian biologists urging Russian journalists to stop repeating the government’s “false, absolutely groundless and hatred-inciting statements about allegedly found evidence of the development of biological weapons in Ukrainian laboratories.”

This is the same guy who presented documents about bird flu and bat disease research to the UN security council as “evidence” for the Russian #biolabs propaganda lie.
