We entered every conflict in the last century unprepared,mainly I believe, because we were gifted by the military with a non merit advanced general officer class. The battlefield dictates you promote merit but sadly peacetime seems to dictate the promotion of butt kissers. Tactical geniuses like Patton do poorly in peace time.but rise to the top in war. So it seems obvious we do not want biologicals under the command of guys in command purely because of their ability to kiss the right butts. Which argues for removing all biological work defensive or otherwise from the military and maintained under civilian control where hopefully closer scrutiny can be achieved free of the military command structure. Safe to assume the same holds true for military world wide then one caveat for a weapons treaty would be removal of biological involvement from all military and thus any country detected moving such work to the military a warning sign.
Thank you for sharing this latest analysis of the capacities of your verification system. Again it meets critical needs.
To me an ability to identify risks before an accidental or intentional crisis occurs is golden.
If I'm now following this more adequately, this system could well additionally serve as a deterrent to bad actors and an early warning for likely ineffective risky system controls.
The need for montoring is clear. This documents as a beneficial starting point. Absent any better system to be considered, to me, its vital to put this system in place asap. Its effectiveness, once in use, could be closely monitored.
You Doctors are clearly persons for all seasons! Its an honor and a positive in one's life to get to share glimpses of your many contributions!
Deterrence has just about been abandoned by us. Criminals today are allegedly rehabilitated rather than punished as a deterrent. Bad actors on the international scale given billions of dollars to play nice rather than punished. Have not seen much deterrence on any play books in some while
The safety and survival of humanity remaining in the hands of the people running biological weapons research for their nation’s military, or anyone else, is beyond terrifying.
When I was young, we did atomic bomb drills, getting under our little school desks, in an absurd demonstration of delusional thinking. My generation grew up afraid of a nuclear holocaust. Today, I don’t go higher than 8000 ft altitude due to lung damage from a man made viral holocaust. If you don’t believe in the Bible, and hope for the return of Jesus to judge and save humanity, you are left with the vain hope that the human race won’t annihilate itself. My hope is in God and His promises.
In the meantime if we use AI to help monitor the insane and deceitful purveyors of mass death, that makes sense. That said, evil men with a desire to kill their enemies, won’t ever stop the arms race and won’t stop lying about what they are doing. Hoping to control them by human wit, even assisted by AI, is false optimism, in my opinion. It may be the best way to monitor the situation, and could be better than purely human surveillance. We cannot put the lid back on Pandora’s box, however.
My thoughts exactly. How does one control the likes of a Fauci or those in China, maybe Russia, definitely the Mullahs and terrorists.
Now the CDC has put out a warning of Poliovirus spreading in 31 countries. It's Level 2 for traveling, even to some areas of Europe. Of course, vaccines are being recommended.
I'm not a fearmonger, nor am I one to give up hope, but this is out of control and indeed, beyond any rational need.
We just will not stop messing with bio weaponry until every last living thing on this planet is extinguished….will we….? This is a beautiful world and it is a crying shame we don’t treat it as the precious gem it is in this solar system. Perhaps that is what happened with the inhabitants of Mars. They messed around with things that killed off their atmosphere and left jt a dead ball of red dust without life. Are we following the same route, playing with things only God should control…..?
Is it just me or does it seem governments always mess with things without having any control of what comes next after their actions.
How do you give a communist enemy, gain of function technology, that you know is going into a lab that you have no control over, and don’t consider what can (will) go wrong? What could possibly go wrong?
How about disarming and removing a government that controls a large country with almost 100 million people and not think it’s going to destabilize the region, break into pieces, create millions of refugees. Do we think they won’t be let into America? How do you set up a new regime without putting boots on the ground, this isn’t what we did in Venezuela. I realize they deserve what they’re getting, but what comes next? It’s much easier to break a beautiful vase than it is to make a beautiful vase. I don’t claim to know what comes next, but we don’t have a great track record for how this ends. I know one thing for sure, by Tuesday November 3rd 2026, Election Day, many of these questions will be answered, and America stands in the balance. J.Goodrich
If you have,been following White House reports there was goid evidence Iran was preparing to attack our troops stationed all over the area with a projected large loss of lives. This attack was proactive...against a band of knuckle dragging mullahs who have hollered death to America for decades and been complicit in the deaths of many of our people. They are,so despised there, and the leading mullahs so decimated that they will have a hard time maintaining control. And now they have attacking Kurds to contend with.
I did hear about that, and I heard they could make 11 nuclear bombs in a week, that the first bombing campaign devastated their nuclear program and set them back for years, Iraq had weapons of mass destruction and the patriot act was to go after terrorists, Covid came from a wet market, the vaccine is safe and effective, social distancing, unvaccinated people kill grandmas. I’ve begun to start questioning what they’re selling. Not always but many times the truth does come out in the end. I know one thing for sure, if this goes sideways we’re all going to pay a massive price in the next election. A price that America may never come back from. I don’t know what the end result will be but I pray for our country.
Yes, we heard, but sadly, I do not trust anything the government says or does. I think our current government system is so corrupt it will never be anything else. I also think people are so overwhelmed by all of the information, and not knowing what is fake or real, people have stopped paying attention and don't care because they feel helpless. My county had a 'special election' Tuesday and it turned out only some 300 people voted. Most did not know of the 'election', so now, our property taxes rise. Things like this happen all of the time: if people aren't aware or feel helpless, they won't get involved. "We the people" have given government too much control and we will never get it back.
I too am cynical but not to the point of believing no one. Do not see how you are anyone,with that attitude can cast a vote,not believing anything anyone says.
For people like you nora that purposely take things out of context I was not talking about the Iranian people, I was talking about the Iranian government you troll! Typical liberal liar!
You constantly pick on me nora twisting my words, you’re the one being nasty! What are you saying I want innocent Iranians killed? Now that’s nasty, and typical of you.
It’s a metaphor showing the incompetent outcome of something the government sets in motion with no understanding of the end result. It also draws into the conversation the most important topic happening in the world today.
It seems like it is consistently predictable that the monitoring of technology is behind, concerning the advances being made. What do these people think they are producing, Play- Doh? I am very excited and relieved that Dr. Malone has a stand on this, it is right up his alley, so to speak. Of course the people involved with the lack of oversight don't want anyone messing with their projects, it could curtail the free for all that has been allowed for so long, that excuses for all mismanagement has become an art in itself. This is really tough stuff to oversee in its magnitude and disbersment. Reminds me of a rodeo, for some reason.
General Comment: Please be careful using Wikipedia. I have been going to Grokipedia.com first and then Wiki if the info is incomplete because Grokipedia is still in progress, but it is growing by leaps and bounds. Over the years I have copied and saved Wikipedia articles, many in sciences and medicine (info on a disease or medicine, medical terminology e.g.). Recently I have used Grokipedia for some of the same and have found that Grok. is more fleshed out and detailed, probably by using more complete AI datamining, for many entries (I have no objection to that use of AI). The most surprising result was that when I went back to Wiki, the entry for the same med or disease had been scrubbed or was in progress of being rewritten. In many cases I found that in those old articles on Wiki I found errors that are now noticeable and I am not an MD or PhD in Cell Biology. They even had Politically Correct assumptions, as well.
And obviously I don't use AI to correct what I write. If you want a break from all this bad news, look up Lewis Carroll (Charles Dodgson) on Grokipedia, the author of Alice in Wonderland who was a much above average Mathematician, all the info you ever wanted to know about him, more than Wiki. And, no, he wasn't a pedophile. Alice Liddell and his relatives wanted their 15 minutes of fame 120 years ago just like we do today. I revisited it because the Cheshire Cat makes a very prescient statement in re: Quantum theory, and I had just made a comment about Schrodinger's Cat for another article here, and it's not unrelated.
Greetings from the Thumb Coast of Michigan! Weather-wise, we have slipped down the thermometer and the skies, sunny yesterday, are again gray and cloudy, rain soon! And the news from Dr. Malone regarding the distribution of anthrax matches the weather conditions. Preceded by the unsettling revelation of the escape of ticks. The lack of safeguards as well as the "thinking" that drives such action borders on insanity. How well I recall the fright of the "tick epidemic" and the pl0ight of those infected who developed serious tick-borne illnesses and continue to suffer the consequences! These "sllips" do not equate to "spilled tea," but have wreaked havoc and death as "fallout" from the hubris and care-less-ness of those who make decisions. During the creepy infestation and migration of escaped ticks I resided in first Virginia, followed by a move to Connecticut. As a dog-owner and gardener, I took every precaution available, appropriate clothing, full exams of bodies - dogs and humans, hot water washings, preventive medications for pets and humans, and it is a relief to report that the vigilance paid off. However, friends and neighbors, were not so fortunate. I question that those who sit in high places take into consideration the human cost - or is the "cost" worth the gamble? Just because we can, should we? Rath De Ort!
All this gain of function is very dangerous. I don't think we will ever be able to do anything to control it. But we need to try. It's just like guns on the street, the cats been let out of the bag and they'll be no way to get it back. Don't get me wrong I have guns.
"The analysis, conducted using a new six-layer verification framework, raises urgent questions about previous US Government oversight policies"
Call me cynical, but I don't think these were accidents or unintended. The reason the military was put under civilian authority to begin with is that military cannot be trusted. Their purpose is war, and they will always opt for anything that will keep them in business, and God help anyone who gets in their way. No threat on the horizon? No need for military. That's an existential threat.
Dr Malone, I want to thank you! Before Covid, my husband and I had spent years working with FEMA as volunteers (since the late 80s)but had to quit sometime after 9/11, when the new DHS made it plain that things are different now. Did a lot of drills, NBC drills, disasters of all kinds. My fav was the Bio drills, and I carefully tracked Bio issues online in my spare time. Example: Just before the Iraq war in early 2003, my nurse daughter took my baby granddaughter to Canada to see family, just as SARS was taking off. The baby came back and got very sick with what they said was RSV, but I suspect SARS, as I know both governments were lying like crazy. Plenty of SARS cases in the US, as Recombinomics website pointed out, but the US officially had none, not one... Fast forward to late 2019, and I had already been following the Wuhan and other Chinese lab news since summer, so Covid wasn't a surprise to me... As a homemaker with time for it, and with 2 First Responders in my small family, a husband, and 3 grandkids, I was highly motivated, and online 24/7 it seems, reading medical papers and opinions, everything out of China and everywhere else, including yours. And I forwarded every link as fast as I read it, to my daughter, along with my opinion. I also kept tabs on the Calif excellent Flu sentinel system, and those stats told the dirty truth week after week, even as the Calif officials themselves lied thru their teeth... I saw the spike in Unknown Coronavirus in Calif around Thanksgiving of 2019, which rapidly shoved out all flus. Yup, that's when everybody in Wuhan was getting out of town and taking direct flights to US and other places...
Thanks largely to YOUR work and expertise that I could point to, my daughter stood fast when her ex-husband wanted to vaccinate the 3 kids in 2021. She and her 2nd hubby weren't so lucky; they were forced to vaccinate or lose their jobs, and they both immediately had health issues. I told her what I thought was the least worst. My opinion at the time, based on everything I read and saw, was that the Russian/Indian shots would have been best, but were not offered here. That DNA shots were better than RNA (1 shot only), and that Moderna was the worst. And I told her for God's sake do not take any boosters. As far as I know, she and hubby were not forced to take boosters. And then he retired early to make sure.
I lost a LOT of friends in early 2020, including a very dear friend, ex-Army, in the Missouri Militia. He died on Groundhog Day, Feb 2, 2020, suddenly at his home in St Louis County, MO, over the weekend. He was only in his 50s. Yes, I know that a bad strain of Covid was all over town, and I know what infamous company was at the heart of the outbreak. But I happen to think he was NOT killed by Covid but by ADE, because in my last conversation with him in Jan 2020, he said that the military guys he knew had already all had shots of some kind, and that the Militia was next, any time now. And I know that he spent his final weekend alive, doing some official MM event, and that a friend in said Militia even helped set him set up a Lazyboy or something in his bathroom on Sat night, as he had a bad cold and wanted to keep a humidifier going in the smallest room. What if he had just got that expected shot that day? I figure I will never know. He was a great guy, btw, the best. And my Grandkids are alive and healthy, thanks to you.
Kristi Noem is out. Trump, who said he would nominate in her place Oklahoma Republican Sen. Markwayne Mullin, made the announcement on social media two days after Noem faced a grilling on Capitol Hill from GOP members as well as Democrats.
It is a miracle we are all still alive
fortunately, anthrax is not generally transmitted by a respiratory route

Deterrence has just about been abandoned by us. Criminals today are allegedly rehabilitated rather than punished as a deterrent. Bad actors on the international scale given billions of dollars to play nice rather than punished. Have not seen much deterrence on any play books in some while
"deterrent"? Meaning You poison Us - We Poison You? What??

As with most inhabited planets, including ours, there is life (I understand) within Mars.

Perhaps Dr. Malone can come up with an AI routine to sort out the gov. lies.
"I realize they deserve what they’re getting," Really? The Iranian people deserve to have their homes blown up?
For people like you nora that purposely take things out of context I was not talking about the Iranian people, I was talking about the Iranian government you troll! Typical liberal liar!
No need to be nasty, James. Face it, you were not clear - you just wrote "they."
Who do you think you are? You think you can insult me like that and then say I’m being nasty. You’re a mean arogant person, watch your mouth.
I’m extremely offended by your reckless demeaning insinuation, and I don’t deserve that,
You constantly pick on me nora twisting my words, you’re the one being nasty! What are you saying I want innocent Iranians killed? Now that’s nasty, and typical of you.
How do your concerns with the Iran operation relate to the subject at hand?
It’s a metaphor showing the incompetent outcome of something the government sets in motion with no understanding of the end result. It also draws into the conversation the most important topic happening in the world today.
Anybody got a good, bioweapons safe bunker for sale!!
Thanks for the vital work Docs.
With a hat tip to Nixon’s “We’re all Keynesians now”, here comes Dr Lector from the top rope, “We are now all on Anthrax Island”.

Uh… yeah
