Now, what is the author trying to say, here?
Oh, wait- that's me. Well, is the author trying
to say that maybe anarchists contaminated the
vaccines, as a biological attack? Or maybe that
our government is doing hare-brained experiments
on us, again?
Sometimes, it is difficult to tell the surrealism from
the reality, without a scorecard. The part about
this bacteria being responsible for a "blood of Christ"
miracle- that is perfectly real. The part about the
U.S. government spreading bacteria in San Francisco,
as a part of a biowar study, and managing to kill some
people that way- that part is perfectly real.
But fear not. If your government really wanted to
kill you, they wouldn't spread bacteria through the
air. They would contaminate some vaccines and target
very specific groups.
Please rest assured that Serratia marcescens is
actually a very commonplace bacterium, that is
a common source of contamination in laboratories,
and a common problem in hospitals. It is mostly
the infamous because the government once tried
to use it to study how effective biological attacks
would be, and they underestimated the harm
that it could cause.
However, this has to be put into context. Flu
can be very harmless, also, but then again, it
can be like the 1918 flu that wiped out millions.
Whether a thing is harmless and commonplace,
or deadly, can depend.
I was digging a bit to see if there have ever
been attempts to made Serratia marcescens more
deadly, because it did pique my curiosity as to
whether there might be any malice behind such
widespead contamination.
One of the points here is that with a little luck,
you could kill more people with vaccines than
with nuclear weapons. I am hoping that the surrealistic
morbidity will arouse some curiosity about the
entire vaccine industry (or vaccine "scam" as some
people call it).
Remember that your government can and will hurt you,
but always remember that surrealism, in and of it self, in theory,
cannot hurt you, per se. Just keep telling yourself that this is
all just a bizarre fantasy, like life itself is.
