I was also obliged to block about 30 accounts which followed me who RTed a recent thread by "fake moon landings, fake meat, magnetic vaccines" fraud @Jikkyleaks attacking #DRASTIC and making absurd claims.

@breakfast_dogs @gadboit @NLink247 1. Insect cell baculovirus cell cultures become contaminated with insect genomic material. 2. Replication process can lead to presence of viral DNA & cellular components in culture medium. 3. This LEADS to contamination of viral product with baculovirus & insect cell-derived DNA.
