“The total number of states who have received samples is now up to 20, plus Washington DC. The newly added state is Mississippi….The investigation ordered by the deputy secretary is….wrapping up now.”-Colonel Steve Warren, U.S. Army

The GAO (Government Accountability Office) recently declared the U.S. Army’s Chemical Biological Defense Program (CBDP) at Dugway Proving Ground (aka West Desert facility, aka Ambient Breeze Tunnel), Utah, to be a total failure at preventing live bioweapons from being shipped across the World.  And when GAO inspectors questioned CBDP administrators about why they haven’t stopped it their response was “…that they were focused on higher priorities and had no CBDP Enterprise-wide impetus to address the infrastructure recommendations.”

But this isn’t the first time GAO inspectors questioned the CBDP.  As early as 1999 the GAO found “…ineffective coordination among the DoD [Department of Defense] and other federal agencies with chemical and biological programs…”

Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) inspectors found that some live anthrax samples were being shipped in nothing more than ziplock baggies!

So far 31 U.S. sillyvilians and government personnel have been treated for exposure to anthrax.  The states that were sent live anthrax bacteria are California, Delaware, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, Washington, Wisconsin, Arizona, Florida, Illinois, Ohio, North Carolina, Rhode Island, Mississippi, Pennsylvania, plus Washington DC.

Since 2005 live anthrax has been shipped to Japan and Republic of Korea (RoK).  Labs in the British empire countries of Australia, Canada and United Kingdom have been sent live anthrax.

The Korean Public Service and Transport Workers’ Union wants to sue the U.S. based delivery company FedEx, why?  Because it was FedEx, using Korean union members, that delivered the live anthrax samples to labs in RoK.  Of course the delivery personnel were not told that they were carrying live anthrax: “The company said all it did was just deliver parcels, and it did not know about the samples. But we believe there is greater possibility that the firm knew it, given FedEx is one of the major contractors of the Pentagon. The firm has not made an apology although it directly threatened the safety of Korean citizens and workers.”-Jung Chan-moo,  Korean Public Service and Transport Workers’ Union

Union members also say they suspect that RoK’s Ministry of Health and Welfare, and the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport are involved as well.

Korean news sources say FedEx administrators refuse to answer their question about the anthrax shipments.

Back in the U.S., the Oklahoma Department of Agriculture, Food and Forestry is warning of “higher than normal” wild anthrax infections in farm animals.

And in Connecticut, the town of Fairfield held an emergency anthrax drill.  The drill was conducted under the eyes of the CDC and involved a “drive thru” antibiotics distribution operation, in which emergency responders would hand out antibiotics to residents as they drove past.

Operation Jupiter: Ebola, Michigan & Illinois next?
