TINY AIRBORNE PARTICLES POSE GRAVE HEALTH THREAT
Tiny air-delivered particles don't just mess up the weather. The EPA reports that sub-micron particles bypass lung filters and enter the blood stream, triggering high blood pressure that can cause heart attack within two hours of inhalation.

Harvard School of Public Health and the American Cancer Society has already found strong links between high levels of small particles and a rise in death rates. Particles in the lower size range called for by the Hughes aluminum oxide spray patent are “most strongly tied to illness and early death, particularly in people who are already susceptible to respiratory problems.”

The EPA says that particulate fallout 10 microns or smaller results in a 5% increased death rate within 24 hours. Teller and the Welsbach “chemtrail” patent calls for spraying 10 million tons of sunlight-reflecting aluminum oxide, 10 microns across.

Particulate Matter is thought to “initiate and/or exacerbate respiratory disorders, such as asthma and airway hyper-responsiveness and is epidemiologically associated with causing death in the elderly and those with pre-existing respiratory, or cardiopulmonary disease," the LA Times reports. “After they reach the heart, the particles are thought to cause a stress reaction in cells, producing inflammation that contributes to heart disease. The particles also may cause blood clots.” [Los Angeles Times Dec 29/03]

Nanoparticles 80,000 times smaller than the width of a human hair can also travel to the brain after being inhaled.
