Prepare for Quarantine

Tuberculosis
The Fulton County Health Department confirmed Wednesday that residents at the homeless shelter where protesters have been occupying have contracted the drug-resistant disease.

The Atlanta Task Force for the Homeless has indicated that two cases have been made public knowledge to the group, the first coming from someone who contracted the disease in September. The identities of the people who have contracted the disease, however, have not been disclosed by the health department to this point.

The news of the tuberculosis contractions could force Occupy Atlanta to move once again.

Zuccotti Lung
That's what demonstrators have dubbed the sickness that seems to be spreading among them at an unpleasantly high rate these days: "It's a real thing," Willie Carey, 28, told the New York Times.

With little sleep in cold conditions, cigarettes and drinks being passed from mouth to mouth, and few opportunities to wash hands, Zuccotti Park may now just be the best place to catch respiratory viruses, norovirus (also known as the winter vomiting virus) and tuberculosis, according to one doctor.

Fancy name for...Pneumonic plague - can be caused in two ways: primary, which results from the inhalation of aerosolised plague bacteria, or secondary, when septicemic plague spreads into lung tissue from the bloodstream. Pneumonic plague is not exclusively vector-borne like bubonic plague; instead it can be spread from person to person. There have been cases of pneumonic plague resulting from the dissection or handling of contaminated animal tissue. This is one type of the formerly known Black Death.[1] It could kill 90%–95% of a population if the victims coughed and passed on the bacteria.

This bug will be biblical...

So, is this how TPTB will reduce humanity to under 500,000,000? This topic has been vetted many, but not with this grave scenario.

A super enhancement of any of our common bugs will be disastrous. Imagine coughing and crapping until you die because there's no treatment, or even worse; your entire family is ill with no available treatment...

The National EAS test is poised to carry this short message...

-This is an urgent health message from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
-Public health officials believe that the bacteria that cause pneumonic plague may have been deliberately released into the air in the xxx area.
-Pneumonic plague is a life-threatening, serious infection of the lungs caused by inhaling the bacteria.
-At this time, we have not confirmed the deliberate release of plague and do not know the extent or source of the outbreak.
-Local, state, and federal officials, including HHS, FBI, and Homeland Security, are working together. Updated announcements will be made as soon as officials know more.
-Plague can be spread from person to person. Avoid close contact with people who have plague symptoms.
-Ill persons should seek care immediately.
-Symptoms include fever, headache, muscle aches and chills, chest pain, and cough. Some people may cough up blood and have stomach pains. Most people develop symptoms within 1 to 4 days after exposure.
-Because flu and plague symptoms may be similar early in the illness, anyone with symptoms of the flu or pneumonic plague should seek medical care right away.
-Although a type of plague called bubonic plague does occasionally occur naturally in some parts of the country, pneumonic plague is even less frequent , which is the cause for concern.
-We have challenges ahead, and we are working to find out more about this outbreak. By staying informed and following instructions from health officials, you can protect yourself, your family, and the community against this public health threat.

(NDM-1) HERE IT IS...

NDM-1 is a gene that helps bacteria resist nearly all antibiotics is present in bacteria.

The investigators are especially concerned because the New Delhi metallo-beta-lactamase (NDM) 1 gene has been detected in bacteria that cause cholera and dysentery.

NDM-1 now appears to be widespread in the environment and that points to the critical need for action to limit the global spread of NDM-1-producing bacteria, said Timothy Walsh, of Cardiff University in the United Kingdom, and colleagues.
[link to health.usnews.com]

The DNA code can easily jump from one bacteria strain to another through horizontal gene transfer. IF NDM-1 jumps to an already antibiotic-resistant bacterium, there is a risk of seriously dangerous infections which would spread rapidly from human-to-human. These infections might be untreatable.
[link to www.gdipc.org]

This gene can supercharge the following common bacterial diseases:

The below bacterias are associated with many common illnesses and conditions.

Respiratory Infections Upper respiratory tract infections. Upper respiratory tract infections are a leading cause of time lost from work and school (Madoff LC et al 2004). Bacteria account for up to 25 percent of upper respiratory tract infections. Group A streptococci are responsible for 95 percent of the cases of strep throat in the United States (Goldmann O et al 2003; O'Brien KL et al 2002). Strep throat is most common in children and adolescents (aged 3 years to 18 years). Other pathogens include Haemophilus influenzae (Echave P et al 2003; Robinson KA et al 2001).

Otitis media. Middle ear infections are the most common bacterial infections in children in the United States. By the age of 3 years, two-thirds of American children have had at least one episode of otitis media, and the other third has had three or more episodes. S. pneumoniae is the most frequent cause (Leibovitz E et al 2004).

Lower respiratory tract infections. Common lower respiratory tract infections include acute, chronic, and health care–associated pneumonia and bronchitis (Garcia Ordonez MA et al 1999; Hedlund J 1995). S. pneumoniae is the most frequent cause of community-acquired lung infections and pneumonia. Lower respiratory tract infections can occur in both healthy and immunocompromised individuals.

Tuberculosis (TB). An estimated 15 million people in the United States are infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Dai G et al 1998; Skamene E 1991). Of these, however, far fewer will actually develop clinically evident disease. Whether TB infection will progress to disease depends on a person's nutritional status. TB occurs disproportionately in poorer populations. Infection is more likely to occur in people aged 15 to 25 years, those older than age 60 years, people with HIV, or people who have been incarcerated for longer than 6 months ( Fleischmann RD et al 2002). In prisons in particular, overcrowding and the frequent movement of prisoners between cells is a factor in the spread of infection (Lobacheva T et al. 2005). It is important to note that the antibiotics used as first-line treatments in TB, such as Isoniazid, are known to cause deficiencies in vitamin B6 (NIH 2005).

Gastrointestinal Infection Infectious diarrhea is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide (Marignani M et al 2004; Reinert P 1993). In the United States, 100 million people are affected by acute diarrhea every year. Most diarrhea is viral (not bacterial) in origin, but bacteria remain an important cause. Nearly half of patients with acute diarrhea must restrict activities, 10 percent consult physicians, 250,000 require hospitalization, and approximately 3000 die. Common bacterial pathogens that cause diarrhea include Campylobacter species, salmonella, shigella, and E. coli O157:H7.

Campylobacter Jejuni. C. jejuni is the most common cause of bacterial diarrhea in the United States. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that more than 1 million Americans are affected yearly. Previously, most cases of bacterial diarrhea were caused by salmonella, but the increased use of antibiotics in poultry- and cattle-feed has been linked to the increasing incidence of drug-resistant C. jejuni (Butzler JP 2004; Moore JE et al 2005; Takkinen J et al 2003). Transmission is via exposure to contaminated food (especially chicken) and water, or contact with infected animals (especially cats and puppies) (Kasper DL et al 2004).

Salmonella. Salmonellosis is the second most frequent cause of bacterial disease in the United States. In 2002, more than 44,000 cases were reported to the CDC. Mild infections often are undiagnosed or unreported, so incidence may be 30 or more times greater than reported (Gold HS et al 2000). Infections with Salmonella species include diarrhea, fever, and abdominal cramps (Murray et al 1998). The elderly, infants, and people with impaired immune systems are at greater risk of severe disease. Transmission is via exposure to contaminated food (especially eggs) or water, or contact with infected animals (reptiles) (Conte JE Jr 2002; Howard BJ et al 1994).

Shigella. Shigella species infection causes a watery or bloody diarrhea with abdominal pain, fever, and malaise. An estimated 448,240 cases occur in the United States yearly. Groups at highest risk in the United States are children in child care centers, individuals in custodial institutions, and international travelers (Gold HS et al 2000; Madoff LC et al 2004).

Escherichia coli O157:H7. E. coli O157:H7 is associated with a severe diarrheal disease called hemolytic uremic syndrome. It has caused several nationally prominent outbreaks of food poisoning. An estimated 73,000 cases are reported in the United States annually (Conte JE Jr 2002). Transmission is through contaminated hamburger meat, apple cider, and fruits and vegetables (Madoff LC et al 2004).
Helicobacter pylori. H. pylori is the most common chronic infection in humans (Basso D et al 2004; Go MF 2002). Acute infection causes abdominal pain, weight loss, nausea, and vomiting. H. pylori is the major cause of gastritis and peptic ulcers in adults and children (Zambon CF et al 2002). H. pylori impairs absorption of nutrients, altering the balance of iron, vitamin B12, folic acid, alpha-tocopherol, vitamin C, and beta-carotene.

Skin Infection Skin infections include impetigo, boils, carbuncles, cellulitis, and complications from burns (Gelfand JA 1984; Gold HS et al 2000). Common pathogens include Staphylococcus aureus, group A streptococci, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Baggett HC et al 2004; Toshkova K et al 2001; Wysocki AB 2002). Impetigo, a skin infection caused mostly by group A streptococci, can cause severe kidney inflammation, sometimes resulting in kidney failure.

Urinary tract infections are the most common, followed by pneumonias, skin and soft tissue infections, and invasive bloodstream infections. Surgical wound infections account for 20 percent to 30 percent of cases, but contribute to as many as 57 percent of extra hospital days and 42 percent of extra costs. Staphylococcus epidermidis, S. aureus, Enterococcus faecium, Enterococcus faecalis, E. coli, Enterobacter species, and P. aeruginosa are common pathogens in wound infections (Goldmann DA et al 1996; Weinstein RA 1991).

CRKP and MRSA Klebsiella is a common type of gram-negative bacteria that are found in our intestines (where the bugs don’t cause disease). The CRKP strain is resistant to almost all antibiotics, including carbapenems, the so-called “antibiotics of last resort.” MRSA (methacillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus) is a type of bacteria that live on the skin and can burrow deep into the body if someone has cuts or wounds, including those from surgery.

Operation Sea-Spray demonstrated how to vector such bugs to the population

Thread: Operation Sea-Spray is back...9 dead in Alabama hospitals after receiving IV contaminated with Serratia Marcescens bacteria

Serratia Marcescens strains are resistant to several antibiotics.

(On September 26 and 27, 1950, the United States Navy conducted a secret experiment named "Operation Sea-Spray" in which some S. marcescens was released by bursting balloons of it over urban areas of the San Francisco Bay Area in California. Although the Navy later claimed the bacteria were harmless, beginning on September 29 eleven patients at a local hospital developed very rare, serious urinary tract infections and one of these individuals, Edward J. Nevin, died. Cases of pneumonia in San Francisco also increased after S. marcescens was released.)

All part of the plan...get ready for the plague

Thank you COSMOS,
I am glad you have the same thoughts !!!

I also wondered about the Anonymousity (spelling ?) ...


Maybe this (the OCCUPY-thing) also is to be lead back to the 9 events that OP/ACO told us about ... who knows ...

Normand Pacific is equipped for diving and ROV operations.

- same off Brazil's coast. Apparently "just a natural split in the sea floor".

Huge oil spill in China, Bohai Bay.

"The oil leak was first detected on June 4 but COPC and CNOOC remained silent until the spill was exposed by the media late in the month.

The eleven organizations also sent an open letter to COPC and CNOOC on July 4 demanding an apology for not immediately disclosing the details of the incident. Public interest litigations are aimed at protecting communities and private individuals and can be filed on behalf of victims by a third party.

"The victims of this marine pollution are immeasurable and it's almost impossible for any one person to file a case, so public interest litigation is necessary," said Wang Haijun of Beijing's Deheheng Law Firm, representing the groups.

According to the first regional regulation on ecological compensation for marine pollution in Shandong province released in 2010, ecological compensation is set at RMB10 million (US$1.54 million) for every half square kilometer of seawater affected and RMB200 million (US$30 million) for every ten square kilometers.

The leak from the Penglai 19-3 oilfield in the Bohai Gulf, operated by COPC, had polluted an area of more than 840 square kilometers as of July 4, according to statistics from the State Oceanic Administration. Wang said that any compensation resulting from the litigation will be used to restore the marine environment and compensate possible victims.

An anonymous official from Changdao county's oceanic and fishery bureau said in an interview with the Economic Herald that although a fishing moratorium began on June 1 in the bay, the oil leak will influence the growth of fish, causing long-term impact on fisheries and the environment. However, Wang said, environmental groups first needed to get their case heard.

>> so even in so-called, back wards, environmentally UNconcious China, they admit the spill WILL have long term effects on fisheries. So who is backwards now?

With regards to the hazardous cargo - all of that cargo has to have the Masters approval before it's loaded and usually the hazardous cargo is loaded last...chances are that these containers are in the top stacks so may have allready gone overboard. The location of these containers also depends on which port they are meant to be discharged.

"The Rena's skipper and second officer have faced a further charge when they reappeared in Tauranga District Court today.
Maritime New Zealand announced earlier this morning both men, who have name suppression, faced a fresh charge under the Resource Management Act.
It related to the "discharge of harmful substances from ships or offshore installations".
The RMA charge carries a maximum penalty of a fine of $300,000, or two years' imprisonment, and $10,000 for every day the offending continues.
The Master and Second Officer (Navigation) had earlier been charged by Maritime New Zealand (MNZ) under the Maritime Transport Act, "for operating a vessel in a manner causing unnecessary danger or risk".
At their appearance in the Tauranga District Court this morning they were remanded on bail to appear again before Christmas.
Meanwhile the Rena has held together overnight, despite fears the stricken container ship was finally about to break.
...
A storm enveloping the already battered cargo vessel was forecast to have brought swells of up to 5m overnight, prompting fresh warnings of oil spills and more lost containers."
[link to www.nzherald.co.nz]

A blogger has been barred from sending updates on the Rena salvage operation after posting a string of behind-the-scenes insights into the disaster and the perils and logistics of the salvage. The postings on the "Antipodean Mariner" blogsite are from a crew member of the Go Canopus, a multi-purpose tug recovering oil from the Rena.

Recent posts reveal frustration at the 12-month timetable to remove the ship's containers and suggest the officer on watch on the night of the disaster altered course, putting the Rena on a collision course with the Astrolabe Reef.
The posts ran almost daily for three weeks and dwell on the challenges facing the salvors, including the stench and maggots from rotting freezer containers.
But the blogger signed off on Thursday after a New Zealand regulatory agency objected and he was warned of a non-disclosure clause in his contract. The posts were being followed in New Zealand, Australia, Southeast Asia, Russia and Scotland.

A post last Sunday says: "AIS data suggests that the officer of the watch altered the vessel's course to make directly for the pilot station. Unfortunately for him (and the ship) there was a well-charted reef between him and the pilot!"
The ship's second officer was tasked with the navigational watch, the Herald reported last month. He faces charges along with the Rena's captain.
A seafaring source noted that several variables could affect any decision to change course, such as out-of-date charts, incorrect setting or failure to account for tide or wind.

A Maritime NZ spokeswoman said the organisation was not responsible for closing down the blogsite. With two investigations under way, it could not comment about the change-of-course claim.

What the blogger wrote:
-Thursday, October 27
"I would hate to guess what the daily cost is for all of this. Personnel, hotel bills, helicopters, support boats and shipping charter costs are not cheap, so the NZ taxpayer will end up footing a phenomenal bill for it all ... No doubt that will all come out during the upcoming electioneering."

-Thursday, Nov 3
"Spare a thought for the salvage team. Apparently the stench of rotting flesh is now all-pervasive on board the Rena, with many of them retching continuously in certain work areas."

-Friday, Nov 4
"Prior to working on the poop [deck], the salvors had to run a fire pump ... to wash the maggots overboard. The fish are getting very fat and thriving out here."

-Monday, Nov 7
"We have been advised that the container salvage reps ... quoted a rate of removal of three containers per day and estimated that it would take a year to unload. WTF! - that rate makes even the Brisbane wharfies look good.
"Mother Nature will have it emptied for them long before a year is out. A summer cyclone will have it unloaded in less than 24 hours. I would be appalled if Maritime NZ signed up for that deal ..."

-Tuesday, Nov 8
"Spare a thought for the personnel on the Awanuia. They are moored 30m down wind of the stern of the Rena. Every moment on deck they would be exposed to the stench emanating from the rotting contents of the freezer containers. I would assume that their air condition system is set to recycle.
"...It is probably not noticeable to the casual observer, but there is further compression buckling of the hull apparent at the water line at low tide ... To the non-mariners, think of her as slightly bent to the left, like a banana. It appears that the incessant harmonic motions of wind, tide, tidal stream (tide-induced current), waves and swell, appear to have finally severed the spine of the Rena. The Dutch salvage rep on board ... confirmed that there is now a 60cm movement in all directions, between the forward and aft sections."

- going from a lower potential Galaxy to the higher potential of the Milkyway with unknown results
(>>> refering to all we discussed (here) in the BEZERK-thread !)

- our Solar System was actually formed in a whole different elemental galactic setting -- one of Aluminum -- [Dwarf Galaxy Genesis] rather than Iron -- [Milky Way Genesis]. (>>> WOWWWW!!!!! Cool !!)


So becomming part of an other Galaxy explains why TPTB are so afraid LOOSING CONTROL ... and why they are trying everything to encase the Earth in magnetical and technological webs with the means to schield us from the INCOMMING MERGING SIGNALS.
Now that we ENTER the PHOTON-BELT, their influence is taning ... thats why they are so inetrested in Photons and Neutrons, and how they are affecting and changing our DNA.

To me it makes a lot of sence.
