Noz Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 There is a document on line that explains what happened to let the 19-virus get so out of hand and how the heroes of the VA have been matching forward in proper formation to protect the veterans from this scourge. It is a blatant attempt to CYA. I scanned it in the hope of getting some simple answers as to when a vaccine might be available. (scanned in this case meaning I attempted to read most of the paragraph headings, with an occasional stop when a heading grabbed me) I blew better than an hour because every one had to insure that their name appeared in the best possible light. It only took 577 pages to accomplish.Along about page 450 or thereabouts I learned that vaccination would begin when "supplies of vaccine and trained personnel were available". I feel so much better now. Another little tidbit I picked out was that "Wutan" province had not had a reported case of the virus since April 2020. Not to join the league of the tinfoil hat folks but: I am a trained chemical, radiological and biological warfare officer. It would look like a perfectly developed virus, introduced quietly to a country that is not without resources but would ignore the initial infection because of the firm knowledge that our medical folks can handle it.The best way of propagating the virus (airborne) with a long enough incubation period to insure maximum dispersion. To insure there would be no cause of concern to their own populace a vaccine was developed before the virus was loosed. The result is a confused opponent, concentrated on the disease at the expense of everthing else Thus the targeted country in a period of flux with a new leadership of questionable competence Is ripe for whatever strike the agressor, whether it may be economic, militarily or propagand wishes to employ. My next move if I were in charge would be to pop a high altitude high yield EMP nuke over New York, Boston and Washington. Put all computers in the target area in a not fixable state. But then the sky might fall too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A-a-a-a-n-d . . . the country responsible for the virus would introduce it locally shortly before a national celebration that would invite the largest voluntary draw of foreign visitors and returning citizens, after which they would disperse across the globe as they returned to their homes after the celebration.

Each one has different uses or can be used for the same thing. The box does say "foil". Look at the top box, right under the "R" in Reynolds.
