Ci-dessus, diflérentes armes bactériologiques
citées dans la revue américaine “Life”. Ro$ebury reconnait qu’au cburs de la fabrication
de ces armes, de nombreux travailleurs de
laboratoiie du Camp Detrick ont été contamines par la brucellose aiguê, la tularémie,
la psittacose, le charbon cutané, etc.

En Mai 1947, Theodor
Rosebury, ainsi que
d’autres bactériologistes
de 1’usine des armes
bactériologiques
du
Camp Detrick, ont
publié un long rapport
sur la guerre hâctériologique, démontrant que
la dissémination par
avions de germes infectieux provoquant la contamination par 1’intermédiaire de 1’air et des
insectes est de la plus
grande vtfleur militaire.
PiDÍbMor of Bacteriology ín the Unlversity of Ct^fomia
had, dt^g the war, woÃed on a method of roreading mists
ooniaining the oignnism of a disease (not specified) which was
“ centuries old and one of the greatest of kilters.” Work
began in April 19441 on the direction of Vice-Admiral Boss T.
Mcintire, Navy Stiigeon-General, when investigations were
undertaken into the twssible use by the enemy of the oiganism
of a highly deadly disease whose identity was not disclosed ;
as a “ blind ” for this secret wprk it was ^^iven out that the
researchers were studying iheans of preventmg and controlling
airbome infections, notably influenza. The Navy Dept.
stated that the result of these researches “ demonstrate that a
man-made epidemic as an instrument of war is a likely
possibility” and that “ conclusive * information has been
obtained. of great value not only for protection against
bacterial attack but for control of commuiiicaide airljonie
diseases among a peace»time population.” It wa.s addcd that
a protective suit with self-containing oxygen supply had been
devised for woricers in any prospective rescue or decontamina>
tlon operations, and that the rubberised siiits and other
protective measures during the researches had proved so
efflcient that not a sin^e case of infection occurred aining
the investigators.—(Times - New York Times - Daily Telegraph
