St. Louis Epidemics
[back] Infectious scares
I've found several hidden pollution sites using epidemics.
Such as, in Tampa (Florida), home
of the greatest incidence of St. Louis virus epidemics in the 1950s. Couldn't
find the pollution source, until the US gov opened up files (coincidentally at
the same time I was looking) and admitted publicly they were employing
"phosphate fertilizer plants" as actually "uranium processing plants" (plutonium
end-product), which means a lot of fluorine products pollution including
possibly gases. Superfund sites are highly polluted
areas that gov gives a special designation for cleanup funding.
St. Louis Virus is said to be
virtually the structural genetic twin of West Nile virus, and both are found in
the same epidemic locations, that is, downwind from a nearby oil refinery. The
diseases are neurological, e.g., flu, meningitis, encephalitis.
I had looked into the early (late
1930s) epidemics, located in St. Louis and they had large epidemics of 'sleeping
sickness' and St. Louisi virus epidemics. But that area was home of Monsanto
chemical plants, and other defense plants.
Wiki shows Monsanto and other
chemical plants plants are still there today, and Boeing and other manufacturing
and airports and expressways.
It is adjacent Illinois, etc.,
