" . . . possible use of monkeypox as a biological weapon instead of smallpox."
In 1998, Alibek reported that "there was significant discussion of the possible use of monkeypox as a biological weapon instead of smallpox." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soviet_biological_weapons_program#:~:text=A%20.... In the 1980s, the Soviet Ministry of Agriculture successfully developed variants of foot-and-mouth disease and rinderpest against cows, African swine fever for pigs, and psittacosis to kill chicken. These agents were prepared to be sprayed down on enemy fields from tanks attached to airplanes over hundreds of miles. The secret program was code-named “Ecology”.
hi professor rat, I don't understand why you are mentioning monkeypox and smallpox. It's confusing to me, and leaves me in a funny state of mind. In that state of mind, I look for associations that could possibly make it make sense to me. What's most present are strong psychological things I have. The phrase "monkey" raises to me two different tense references: people who have thought of monkeywrenching, which is a nonviolent form of defensive sabotage, and also a racial slur. Monkeywrenchers can get heavily politically targeted. In the concept of pox, diseases: when you get heavily politically targeted, you can end up spreading the political targeting to others by association. Is this related to what you are saying about monkeypox and smallpox at all?
