========================================

The biggest concern is the part is the
part where Mark Klempner is not a scientist
and that this is a political position:

Remember, Yale's Durland Fish told me I should
not "mess with Yale or the Federal govt."

We're not sure who the "federal govt" thinks
they're working for, but Yale, we know:

Da ^^^ Mossad gonna moida me.

Jeepers! Had they murdered me, what
would be happening right now with the
LYMErix-HIV and the LYMErix-Tuberculosis
"vaccines?"

"The only currently licensed tuberculosis (TB) vaccine, bacille
Calmette Guérin, confers incomplete protection against tuberculosis,
and is not safe in infants infected with the human immunodeficiency
virus."

"This article discusses progress in the field and issues surrounding

vaccines."

Progress in the field of Tb-HIV-Relapsing
Fever tripalmitoyl cysteine "vaccines":

They gum up the immune system and activate

but *rarely* OspA or Pam3Cys. The latter
takes having a Steere's-HLA-"case"-of-"Lyme
Disease." There are only about 40 such people
in the entire United States:

They have bad knees and that's it, according
to Mark Klempner and Gary Wormser:
http://www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/pdf/10.1086/432733?cookieSet=1
"Patients generally feel well aside from their
arthritis symptoms."

Formerly, the rest had, according to Mark
Klempner, this:

"Neurologic manifestations of Lyme disease include meningitis,
encephalopathy, and cranial and peripheral neuropathy. There are no
sensitive markers for neuroborreliosis, and diagnosis is often based
on clinical presentation and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) abnormalities,
including intrathecal antibody production. Matrix metalloproteinase
(MMP) activity in CSF was compared in patients with neuroborreliosis,
patients with diverse neurologic disorders, and healthy controls. The
CSF of 17 of 18 healthy subjects and 33 of 37 patients with neurologic
symptoms and normal CSF and imaging studies contained only MMP2. The
CSF of several patients with neurologic disorders contained MMP2,
MMP9, and gelatinolytic activity at 130 and 250 kDa. The 130-kDa MMP
was found without the 92-kDa MMP9 in the CSF of 11 (79%) of 14
patients with neuroborreliosis and only 7 (6%) of 118 control patients
(P < .001). This pattern of CSF gelatinase activity may be a useful
marker for neuroborreliosis."

That kind of an insane crook as the head
of a biowarfare lab?

Accidents and exposures are the least of
the National Security Threats posed by this
Israeli clique of Intelligence-stealing
un-intellectuals. Nobody wants to talk about
it because it is *RACIST* to talk about genetic
racism being performed by these Intelligence-
stealing, mass-murdering racist Israelis.

'Who are just plain *STUPID* when left to their
own criminal, neurotic devices.

The NIH has to "START OVER" on HIV and tuberculosis.

Go ahead and aks Tony aboudit:
"Determining the structure of the trimeric form of the envelope
protein is currently a research priority and is expected to yield
additional insights. Efforts to design novel envelope immunogens
include the use of a 'scaffold' protein unrelated to the HIV envelope
to which conformation-dependent conserved regions of the envelope are
added, ensuring their exposure to and recognition by the immune
system."

As safety trials continue, biolab's future uncertain
By Gianna Walton

Updated: Wednesday, December 9, 2009

As the National Institutes of Health continues to weigh safety issues
surrounding Boston University's completed Biosafety Level-4
laboratory, BU officials said safety and simulation training are
underway.

The biolab, located in the South End, would house the world's
deadliest pathogens, including anthrax, the bubonic plague and Ebola.
It is awaiting an additional NIH risk assessment that will determine
whether or not research on these pathogens can be conducted there
safely.

The initial 2007 assessment of the biolab by the National Research
Council found it to be "not sound and credible", according to a Nov.
29, 2007 letter to the National Academies.

Ellen Berlin, spokeswoman for Boston Medical Center and the BU
Medical Campus, said although researchers are not yet using live
agents, safety and simulation training at the biolab is currently
underway.

The two-part instruction consists of both classroom learning and hands-
on training, Berlin said. Safety procedures, such as how to properly
put on protective suits, are being taught to a small group of about 18
researchers, she said.

Training for the biolab is going well and will continue to follow a
schedule for the next few months, she said.

"We have the opportunity to spend significant time on the training,"
she said.

Berlin said in the event of a lab accident, strict Boston Public
Health Commission. regulations would be followed.

"There will be established procedures and protocols that will have
been coordinated with the city and in accordance with any appropriate
regulations," she said.

Boston Public Health Bureau Director of Community Initiatives Roger
Swartz said the BPHC has been meeting with other city departments,
such as the police and fire departments, to discuss safety protocol
for the BSL-4 lab. The BPHC utilizes some of the strongest laboratory
regulations in the country, Swartz said.

"Our intention was to make sure that current research at Level 3 was
as safe [as possible]," he said. "There would be additional
containment requirements for Level 4."

The BPHC is approving plans for the types of research performed in the
lab, he said. According to BPHC Biological Laboratory Regulations, any
entity wishing to perform BSL-4 research must obtain a permit, undergo
inspections and report any accidents to the commission.

"The research institution would also have to submit to us an
application to do any work. In that, they would submit things such as
a transportation plan," Swartz said.

In order to reinforce a chain of custody while transporting the live
agents, White Glove Services would be used, he said. These extra
services, offered by companies like UPS, can include GPS tracking,
escort services and specialized vehicles, he said.

Despite safety precautions, previous accidents in lower-level
laboratories will continue to fuel worries about the spread of studied
diseases, MED Associate Provost Thomas Moore said in a Nov. 2 Daily
Free Press article. Recent contaminations include that of a BU
graduate student who was infected in late October with the same strain
of meningitis he was studying at a BSL-2 lab.

Anti-biolab activist Klare Allen, who coordinates Roxbury's Stop the
Bioterror Lab Coalition, said opposition for the biolab has not
slowed.

"The more we wait, the more money they're spending," Allen said of
the delay in usage of the biolab. "I'm not letting this thing go. I
care about you, I care about the families, I care about the students.
I care about everyone having the right to live."

Demonstrations against the BSL-4 lab have occurred as recently as this
fall. On Oct. 30, a small group of people dressed as zombies and
paraded through the BU campus in protest, The Daily Free Press
reported.

Allen said one of her main goals is to spread awareness of the biolab,
especially in light of recent and future elections. Anti-biolab
efforts helped thwart several pro-biolab candidates this year, she
said.

"We blew them out of the water by letting people know where they
stand," she said.

Allen said she thinks Mayor Thomas Menino's reelection won't affect
the outcome of the biolab, though the fifth-term incumbent has been a
long-time biolab supporter.

"Menino's no obstacle," she said. "It's up to the judges now."

The NIH must thoroughly analyze possible problems with the biolab,
such as the infection of a researcher with a studied pathogen, she
said.

"The federal case solely relies on this worst-case scenario," she
said. "They have to prove that no one will be affected in the
community."

Fighting the biolab is a matter of life and death not only to the
Roxbury community, but also to people in surrounding areas, she said.

"The city of Boston is not prepared for a catastrophe," she said.
"We're talking the plague and Ebola. If we get infected by this, we're
dead."

Students said they have mixed feelings about the lab.

College of Arts and Sciences freshman Reena Clements said she thinks
the biolab is not a bad idea, as long as the necessary precautions are
taken to prevent the pathogens from being released into the city.

"They can contain it, definitely," she said. "They just have to put
the people in isolation."

CAS sophomore Colleen Morrissey said does not mind the close proximity
of the lab to the urban center.

"[But] I can understand how people would be freaked out about it,"
she said.

Morrissey said she thinks the biological research that would be
conducted in the lab is important. She said she is not worried about a
potential outbreak.

"I would assume that they would know what they were doing," she said.

CAS sophomore Emma Kerr-Carpenter said she doesn't think researchers
would condone the lab's construction in a densely populated area if
they were not sure it was safe.

"Scientists don't want to have to contain an outbreak," she said.
