Rabies Resistant Peruvian Mutants?

• Six Peruvians have survived - without treatment - the bite of rabid vampire bats.
• They live in remote villages far from civilization along the Amazon, where locals endure frequent, typically deadly, vampire attacks.
• Medical researchers agree that an untreated rabies infection in a human would be invariably fatal, that "nearly everyone who is found to be experiencing clinical symptoms of rabies dies"

While those in the know realize that vampire bats don't kill by draining the blood of their victims - they're far too small for that - they represent an important vector in the spread of rabies. In fact, the bats manage to lap up as much blood as they do by use of a factor in their saliva known as draculin which prevents the clotting and coagulation of the blood.

Until now, all medical experts were in agreement that rabies if left untreated is uniformly fatal. Were they wrong? Were they misleading us? Or ... has something different arisen in the Peruvian jungle?
Why has the Peruvian government not released DNA analyses of the survivors?
When will the Centers for Disease Control admit that the Peruvian Six carry a rabies-resistant mutation?
Which of the world's military organizations will be first to genetically enhance its soldiers with resistance to rabies - and then to develop similar mutations to protect against anthrax and other bio-weaponry?

We will report back here as we receive more information.

Human DNA Has Been Enriched

1. Human (and other) DNA is composed of four basic building blocks - the nucleoties adenine, guanine, thymine, and cytosine.
2. Recent research indicates there are now four additional nucleotides.
3. Those four additional nucleotides are chemically modified versions of cytosine.
4. Two of these additional building blocks had been seen before the recent stoppage and restart of the SETI project, while the other two were only found after that incident.

It seems that something has caused a chemical modification of one of the four basic building blocks of human genetic material. The question is what is that cause?

This might be a natural adaptation taking place in preparation for the coming Ice Age, but it's also possible that this could be an induced change.

Why won't our governments and scientists tell us the source of these changes? Are they part of the process, or are they afraid of our reaction to the truth?

We'll report back when more information is available.

Radiation and Antibiotics

Since 1954, and especially since 1967:

1. There has been a marked increase in antibiotic-resistant strains of many types of bacteria.
2. There has been a significant growth in the number of insect species which are resistant to the various insecticides being used in homes, in agriculture, and in other commercial activities.
3. There has been a widespread increase in the incidence of childhood asthma and many previously-unknown food allergies.

What is special about those dates is that in 1954, the Raytheon folks started marketing commercial microwave ovens, and in 1967 Amana introduced the home model of the Radar Range.
As scientists will tell you, there is a major difference between ionizing and non-ionizing radiation as far as their abilities to cause "radiation sickness" symptoms.
As our government scientists at the CDC and NIH won't tell you, since we've been irradiating the microbes and insects which accidentally find themselves in our microwaves, the problem of drug- and chemical- resistant pests has grown at nearly exponential rates.
Why won't our governments tell us what's really going on? Stay tuned as we continue to investigate this potentially deadly threat.
