Yet that's exactly what's happening as reports tied to contaminated lettuce continue to spread across the country. Another day, another public-health headline. Another microscopic threat.
But I can't shake the feeling that I've seen this movie before.
First it was reported in 17 states. Then 31. Then 32. Now 34.
This time it's not a virus making headlines.
It's Cyclospora — a microscopic parasite linked to contaminated produce that can cause explosive watery diarrhea, cramping, nausea, fatigue, dehydration, and symptoms that can linger for weeks.
Most people don't realize that scientists also perform genetic manipulation experiments on parasites — including research that can involve gain-of-function, depending on how that term is defined.
Just saying.
Yet the standard treatment is trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (TMP-SMX) — a medication many people think of as an antibiotic.
How did this parasite enter the food supply? Why has the number of affected states continued to grow? Could knowledge gained from parasite research ever be misused?
And why is the CDC so adamant about telling people not to use silver or chlorine dioxide? Personally, I'd be asking questions and doing my own homework before accepting anyone's conclusion.
There is no public evidence that this outbreak resulted from a bioweaponized parasite.
Yet.
Personally, this is what I would be doing. I don't trust the scientism heads with bow ties. I'd stay away from packaged and pre-shredded lettuce for the time being.
And yes, I'd be making sure I had the wellness products I personally choose to keep in my own preparedness cabinet, including Silver Excelsior.
I've seen enough over the last several years to know that asking questions is never a bad idea.
Have you?
Silver Excelsior is HoneyColony's flagship product.
We've finally ironed out the delivery and fulfillment kinks, and I'm proud to say it's now reaching customers the way it always should have.
What many people don't know is the price I paid to help bring this product to market. My work on Silver Excelsior drew the attention of federal regulators, and I found myself swept into the FDA and FTC's Operation Quack Hack.
Recently, someone pointed me to what Grok's encyclopedia had written about my work. Reading it was surreal. It reminded me that, regardless of how history is rewritten or who tries to erase your contributions, impact leaves a trail.
Consider the AI the modern digital Akashic Records. Cemented are the bullets I took to bring Silver Excelsior Serum to the market. You are welcome.
