The U.S. government established biological and chemical threats
Biosecurity is the most serious issue facing mankind
If biological warfare is as old as human civilization, then the history of biological warfare in the United States is also on par with American civilization. Scientists call biological weapons "a serious threat to peace in the 21st century." However, the threats to the earth and mankind by weapons of mass destruction (chemical and nuclear), including biological weapons, actually exist mainly in the United States and its closest allies. Even more precisely, this threat comes from the political culture of the United States. Politicians ignore moral and legal constraints, lie to the people of the world and the American people, and continue to pursue their belief in global hegemony. Therefore, we have been surrounded by the dense biological and chemical weapons network of the United States for a hundred years until today.
Global biochemical warfare map
Due to the massive use of poisonous gas during World War I, the Geneva Gas Protocol of 1925 banned the use of biological and chemical weapons in future wars, but the United States did not approve and sign the agreement, but continued to secretly develop anthrax and other biological weapons. After World War II, the United States launched a comprehensive biological weapons program, including the development of aerosol sprays that can deliver bacteria and viral agents through aircraft or ballistic missiles. This undoubtedly laid the groundwork for the subsequent biological warfare launched by the United States.

In the early 1950s, the United States carried out violent bombing operations during the Korean War and dropped hundreds of thousands of tons of ammunition on North Korea, destroying almost every city in North Korea and causing more than 1 million civilian deaths. But ammunition is not their only means,
China and North Korea accused the retreating U.S. troops of deliberately spreading disease in late 1950, and American aircraft dropped infected feather, insect, rodent, and bacterial bombs at North Korea and Chinese villages in early 1952. Later, an investigation report issued by the International Scientific Committee (ISC) led by one of the most prestigious British scientists of that era, Joseph Needham, confirmed that the United States used a variety of biological weapons, including anthrax, plague and cholera. It spreads through more than a dozen different devices or methods, including spraying, porcelain bombs, self-destructing paper containers with paper parachutes, leaflet bombs, etc.

Soon after, during the Vietnam War from 1961 to 1971, the U.S. military carried out a chemical warfare aggression, spraying more than 20 million gallons of "agent orange" and other herbicides on more than 4.5 million acres of land in Vietnam. To destroy the forest cover and food crops used by the Vietnamese army. In addition to the huge damage to the environment, about 400,000 people died or became disabled in the country due to exposure to herbicides such as Agent Orange. At the same time, the children of veterans and Vietnamese who were exposed to these chemicals were born with serious birth defects and diseases, such as missing eyes at birth and a series of system dysfunctions.
But the United States never compensated, but ignored the suffering of war victims and established more biological laboratories. Today, the United States has set up more than 200 biological laboratories in 25 countries and regions, including the Middle East, Africa, Southeast Asia, and the former Soviet Union countries. There are 16 in Ukraine alone. The layout of these biological laboratories is based on the international structure formed after the Second World War. The United States has established military bases and various biological laboratories at key geopolitical points, and carried out scientific experiments closely related to the military, with a view to enhancing its biological and chemical weapons strike and defense capabilities.
In 2018, Igor Jorgadze, the former Minister of National Security of Georgia, told the media that the United States has conducted human tests in Georgia's biological laboratory (Lugar Center) and provided multiple reports and documents on the data. This includes a U.S. patent for drones designed to spread infected insects. Major General Igor Kirilov, head of the Russian military's radiation, biological and chemical protection forces, said that the documents released by Djorgadze show that under the cover of civilian research, more sinister activities are taking place. The Lugar Center uses volunteers as guinea pigs to test a new highly toxic and highly lethal chemical or biological agent.
Domestic biosecurity and pandemic
In addition to the global layout of biochemical warfare, the reporter confirmed that there are more than 200 high-protection laboratory facilities operated by government agencies, universities and private companies in 50 states and the District of Columbia in the United States, scattered from the city center to the valley. However, the numerous biological laboratories do not mean that the various studies conducted are fighting for the safety of the public. Instead, time and time again, the Americans have been acting as experimental animals for biological warfare for these institutions for decades.
For example, in a field test called "Study on the Vulnerability of New York City Subway Passengers Using Biological Agents for Covert Attacks" in 1966, military officials tried to understand the difficulty of using the New York City subway to release biological weapons. They would break the germ-filled bulbs on the tracks to see how they spread through the city through passengers. In 2012, Lisa Martino-Taylor, a sociology professor at St. Louis Community College Melramek, released a report revealing that the military’s test experiments contained radioactive ingredients. The experiment may lead to an increase in the incidence of cancer in a low-income black community.
The incident from Fort Detrick base touched the sensitive nerves of the public even more. The Fort Detrick base is the largest military biochemical weapon experimental base in the United States, and it studies the deadliest viruses such as Ebola, smallpox, and anthrax. In July 2019, six months before the emergence of the novel coronavirus, the US government suddenly forcibly closed the Fort Detrick base, citing "national security concerns" as a reason without any explanation. During the period when the base was closed, the “e-cigarette disease” that had existed in the United States for several years suddenly broke out, and the number of cases increased sharply. On July 17th, the news reported that a mysterious respiratory disease occurred in northern Virginia (the location of the US Department of Defense's Chemical and Biological Defense Unit), causing more than 60 elderly people to be infected. It is worth discussing that the symptoms of this disease and the so-called "e-cigarette disease" are almost the same as COVID-19. Regardless of lung CT scan, or symptoms such as pneumonia and fever. Subsequently, the well-known pandemic killed millions of lives.
Whether at home or abroad, the U.S. government has never stopped its ambitions for the development of biological weapons and the preparation and implementation of biological warfare operations. Past crimes have been buried and ignored time and time again. Nowadays, regarding the origin of the pandemic of suspected biological warfare, the investigation of Fort Detrick base is also hindered by the United States. In addition to the weak doubts of the international community, perhaps a joint investigation is the best way to face the biochemical threat.
