Why? What would stop them?
So the Army is doing this?
Well.... let's see.
The US Military and the Ebola Outbreak
Analysis of clinical samples from suspected Lassa fever cases in Sierra Leone showed that about two-thirds of the patients had been exposed to other emerging diseases, and nearly nine percent tested positive for Ebola virus. The findings, published in this months edition of Emerging Infectious Diseases, demonstrates that Ebola virus has been circulating in the region since at least 2006well before the current outbreak,reports Global BioDefense.
According to GBD, the U.S. Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases has been operating in the area since 2006, supposedly working on "diagnostic tests."
The laboratory testing site in Kenema is supported by the Armed Forces Health Surveillance Center-Global Emerging Infections Surveillance and Response System. Other contributors to the work include the Department of Defense Joint Program Executive Office-Critical Reagents Program, the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) Cooperative Biological Engagement Program, and the DTRA Joint Science and Technology Office.
Filoviruses like Ebola have been of interest to the Pentagon since the late 1970s, mainly because Ebola and its fellow viruses have high mortality rates in the current outbreak, roughly 60 percent to 72 percent of those who have contracted the disease have died and its stable nature in aerosol make it attractive as a potential biological weapon.
Since the late 1970s and early 1980s, researchers at the U.S. Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases have sought to develop a vaccine or treatment for the disease.
Last year, USAMRIID scientists used a treatment, MB-003, on primates infected with Ebola after they became symptomatic; the treatment fully protected the animals when given one hour after exposure.
As I reported earlier, MB-003 appears to be part of the "secret serum" treatment being administered to the two Americans that are now in the U.S. and who contracted Ebola.
It's really not a big jump to suspect that the military has also been doing research on Ebola as a bioweapon. As the Army Times notes about Ebola, "its stable nature in aerosol make it attractive as a potential biological weapon." What better place, via the eyes of the U.S. military, to be messing around with such research than Africa? The thinking might go: If there is a misstep with the virus, research blowbacks don't happen around US civilian populations.
Another dot to connect is that the US Gunverment holds a patent on Ebola: http://www.google.com/patents/US20120251502
Seriously, you and that blog thinks that the U.S. Army is doing all this with Ebola?
As far as the Army and DOD doing research with it as a bio agent, that is no secret, that is what they do, Ebola has been being research by the U.S. for many decades, the military has to keep up with all such threats and possible weapons.
The Army helps during the Ebola breakouts, it isn’t there to infect and kill people.
No, the United States and the Army is not murdering these people and causing this outbreak.
By the way, it has been completely routine and normal news that the Army has always studied Ebola and other such diseases as a bio agent, it isn’t a secret to fit in with your conspiracies, it is what the Army does.
Here is a conspiracy article from 1996 involving Ebola.
“AIDS AND EBOLA
Ever since the outbreak of the AIDS and Ebola viruses, rumors have surfaced in both the gay and black communities - the two communities that have suffered the most from these twin scourges - that AIDS and Ebola were “manufactured diseases,” the origins of which could be traced to DOD and CIA research being carried out by various American pharmaceutical companies. This belief has been endorsed by prominent African American leaders such as Louis Farrakhan, head of the Nation of Islam.
Whites, of course, would say, Well, that’s just Farrakhan, and anything he says should be discounted. But it’s not just Farrakhan.”
