204. Trying to catch up now with news stories and mentions of #DRASTIC since "the split" on Halloween

It's been relatively quiet over the last two months but I found some articles to add.

Clerical Work can be fun during consolidation phases and winter time, and lockdowns ;)
205. While promoting their Covid origin book in Italy, Quay, Barnard & Dalgleish extensively spoke about DRASTIC
They realized that Italian MSM had given DRASTIC more coverage than imagined
"Some people in the vast audience were very aware of you guys"
206. Podcast Ep. 6 of Origins by @asterisk_double focuses on #GainOfFunction and what we know from #NIH & #DARPA documents made public.
Thanks @thackerpd for chatting
Thanks @BillyBostickson
#DRASTIC @BioSRP @joshrogin @Ayjchan for all the hard work.

207. A reminder in 2022 of all of the #DRASTIC Breakthroughs, Research & Achievements since early 2020:

Many references to the work of #DRASTIC

"Drastic has no leader, but the closest it has to a coordinator goes by the pseudonym of Billy Bostickson, an indefatigable collator of information"

225. @MailOnline by @mattwridley (29/10/21)

Is this finally proof China created Covid?

Group of online sleuths fought to discover if the virus was engineered by scientists in Wuhan lab at heart of probe into the pandemic's origins

dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1…

Tks @MundlerStudents
226. Screenshots from above article in @MailOnline

"Soon, some of the sleuths had coalesced into a loose confederation known as DRASTIC (Decentralised Radical Autonomous Search Team Investigating Covid-19). And more key findings were quick to follow"
227. @BricePerrier Article

"Hypothesis of virus increased in the lab is quite plausible"

"Technically we can find information that has been erased, if we give ourselves the means. This is what the Drastic" has undertaken to do"

In the bad old days they injected them with yellow fever & other nasties for dispersal by planes.

1. Latest Victim of Flo Debarre's "Doxxng" Crusade

Is ME!

I got a disturbing & threatening email, mentioning:

"room for negotiation about the name"

"1st story is often the one that sticks, even if it's not accurate..your chance to negotiate terms"

"continue over Signal" Image
2. Le Monde

The reporter she is working with, William Audureau @Willvs , seems a principled journalist and did not know of her nefarious doxxing activities against me and other members of DRASTIC and our supporters in Academia, of which he dissaproves. Image
@Willvs 3. Best way to deal with bullies is to expose them!

I thus emailed CNRS, Cyber Security Office & the Minister of the Interior to complain

An unexpected result in a UK Porton Down Study

"Participant 12" (maybe a soldier at Aldershot). after infection with SC2, over time experienced a substantial number of mutations suggestive of rapid evolution.

Yet he was healthy & not immunocompetent?

1. Panama Canal in the News

Historical Perspective

On the many workers' lives lost trying to build it:

Who were they and where did they come from?
2. First Attempt (French)

In the 1880s, the French tried but failed to build a Panama Canal.

They finally gave up in 1889, after years of fighting a recalcitrant landscape, ferocious disease and spiralling costs

AND the deaths of 22,000 workers! .

archive.ph/8FqKiImage
3. From Suez to Panama

Ferdinand de Lesseps's success in building the Suez Canal in 1869 was utterly derailed by the abysmal failure of his subsequent effort to build the Panama Canal due to disease.

Bankruptcy!

800 thousand people had invested their savings in the project! Image

1. Russian Biolab Claims: A Controversial Topic

Good luck using your critical thinking skills to seperate wheat from chaff so that you can decide what is propaganda & what is fact.

Of course the easy options are to dismiss everything as lies or to swallow everything as fact.
2. What I recommend

If you are interested in a balanced analysis of the Russian claims and all the detailed evidence presented by Kirillov before his assassination in Moscow, as well as relted topics, then I highly recommend you plough through those threads at your leisure.
3. Documents & Russian claims on Projects UP-4 (avian flu) Flu-Flyway (wild ducks & bird flu), P-781 (bat coronaviruses), UP-8 (CCHF, Leptospirosis Hanta viruses):
