CLICK HERE TO LISTEN TO "TESTIMONY OF DR. MAURICE HILLEMAN"

[Dr. Leonard George Horowitz] Listen now to the voice of the world's leading vaccine expert, Dr. Maurice Hilleman, Chief of the Merck Pharmaceutical Company's Vaccine Division, relay this problem he was having with imported monkeys. He best explains the origin of AIDS, but what you are about to hear was cut from any public disclosures.

[Dr. Maurice Hilleman] And I think that vaccines have to be considered the bargain basement technology for the twentieth century.

[Narrator, The Health Century, Blackwell/WGBH/PBS] Fifty years ago when Maurice Hilleman was a high school student, in Miles City, Montana, he hoped he might qualify as a management trainee for the local JC Penney store. Instead, he went on to pioneer more breakthroughs in vaccine research and development than anyone in the history of American medicine. Among the discoveries he made at Merck, are vaccines for mumps, rubella, and measles.

[Dr. Edward Shorter, Medical Historian] Tell me how you found SV40 in the polio vaccine.

[CENSORED INTERVIEW OF MERCK COMPANY CHIEF RECORDED FOR BOSTON'S FAMED PUBLIC BROADCASTING STATION, WGBH. PRODUCTION STAFF ARE HEARD IN THE BACKGROUND.]


[Dr. Maurice Hilleman] Well, that was a Merck thing. I came to Merck and I was going to develop vaccines. And we had wild viruses in those days. Remember the wild monkey kidney viruses and so forth? And I finally, after six months, gave up. I said that you cannot develop vaccines with these damn monkeys. We're finished. And if I can't do something, I wasn't going to try it. So I went down to see Bill Mann at the zoo in Washington, D.C. And I told Bill Mann, I said, "Look, I've got a problem. I don't know what the hell to do." Bill Mann is a real bright guy. I said, "These lousy monkeys are picking it up while being stored in the airports in transit at these loading and offloading ... He said. "It's very simple." He said, "You go ahead, get your monkeys out of West Africa, and get the African Green, bring them into Madrid, unload them there, there are no other traffic through there for animals, fly them into Philadelphia, pick 'em up. Or fly them into New York and pick 'em up -- right off the airplane." So I brought African Greens in. I didn't know we were importing AIDS virus at the time.

[WGBH Production Staff] [Laughing]

[Man, WGBH Production Staff] Oh, it was you who introduced AIDS virus in the country.

[Woman, WGBH Production Staff] Now we know!

[Man, WGBH Production Staff] Oh, it was you who introduced AIDS virus in the country.

[Woman, WGBH Production Staff] Now we know!

[Man, WGBH Production Staff] Oh, it was you who introduced AIDS virus in the country.

[Woman, WGBH Production Staff] Now we know!

[Dr. Maurice Hilleman] This is the real story.

[Dr. Maurice Hilleman] This is the real story.

[Dr. Maurice Hilleman] This is the real story.

[Man, WGBH Production Staff] What Merck won't do to develop a vaccine.

[Man, WGBH Production Staff] What Merck won't do to develop a vaccine.

[Man, WGBH Production Staff] What Merck won't do to develop a vaccine.

[Dr. Maurice Hilleman] So what he did --

[Woman, WGBH Production Staff] Yeah, right!

[Dr. Maurice Hilleman] -- he brought in, I mean we brought in those monkeys, and then we had those. And this was the solution, because those monkeys didn't have the wild viruses. But we had all of these --

[Dr. Edward Shorter, Medical Historian] Why didn't the Greens have the wild viruses, since they came from Africa?

[CENSORED INTERVIEW]


[Dr. Maurice Hilleman] Because they weren't, they weren't being infected in these group holding things with all the other 40 different viruses.

[Dr. Edward Shorter, Medical Historian] But they had the ones they brought from the jungle, though?

[Dr. Maurice Hilleman] Yeah, they had those, but there were relatively few. What you do is you have a gang housing, you're going to have an epidemic transmission of an infection in a confined space.

[Dr. Edward Shorter, Medical Historian] Oh, is that the problem?

[ALL VACCINES CONTAIN FOREIGN DNA, RNA, AND PROTEIN THAT MAY PROMPT ALLERGIES AND AUTOIMMUNE DISEASES FROM BACTERIA, VIRUSES, FUNGI, YEAST, BOVINE FETAL SERUM, MONKEY KIDNEY TISSUES, TOXIC METALS, MERCURY AND ALUMINUM, MSG, AND CORPSE PRESERVATIVES FORMALDEHYDE AND FORMALIN.]


[Dr. Maurice Hilleman] So anyway, the Greens came in and we not only had these, and then we're taking our seed stocks to clean them up, and God! Now I'm discovering new viruses! So I said, "Judas Priest!"

[UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH, VIRUS RESEARCH LABORATORY, DR. JONAS E. SALK]


Well, I got an invitation from the Sister Kenny Foundation, which was the opposing foundation, and it was the live virus.

[Dr. Edward Shorter, Medical Historian] Oh, right.

[DR. ALBERT SABIN, POLIO VACCINE PIONEER]


[Dr. Maurice Hilleman] Yeah, they jumped on Sabin's bandwagon. They asked me to come down and give a talk at the Sister Kenny Foundation meeting, and I said -- it was an international meeting -- "God, what am I going to talk about? I know what I'm going to do! I'm going to talk about detection of nondetectable viruses as a topic."

[Dr. Albert Sabin, Polio Vaccine Pioneer] There were those who didn't want a live virus vaccine. They concentrated, National Foundation For Infantile Paralysis, concentrated all its efforts on getting more and more people to use the kill virus vaccine -- while they were supporting me for research on the live virus vaccine.

Attorney Walter Kyle of Cape Cod, Massachusetts, began representing Plaintiffs with vaccine injuries ten years before the Vaccine Injury Act began, and has argued more than forty cases before the Special Masters of the United States Court of Federal Claims [under the Vaccine Injury Compensation Act] – 42 U.S.C.A. §300aa, et.seq. As a result, Attorney Kyle has unique insight into the nuances of vaccine injury law.

Q. To start our interview, may I ask how you became involved in vaccine law?

A. I began representation of vaccine-injured clients in Arkansas in 1977. My first case out of law school was representing a paraplegic mother who acquired paralytic polio from mutated Sabin live trivalent oral polio vaccine [TOPV] viruses shed from her three-month-old infant’s diapers. Centers for Disease control classified the woman in the “immune deficient” category of “vaccine associated contact cases” from Type 2 Sabin vaccine.

Q. Walter, you just mentioned the phrase “vaccine viruses shed.” For those who are not familiar with such terminology I’d like to say it means certain types of vaccines contain certain viruses that are alive and once injected into [orally administered to] an individual can infect others via contact with bodily fluids, excrement, and sometimes coughing or sneezing. In your first vaccine case, the mother contracted paralytic polio from viruses “shed” in her infant’s diapers soiled with urine and feces.

Walter, how did you present that case at court?

A. In the first case against the manufacturer, American Cyanamid, which defended based on the fact that the woman was categorized as “immune deficient” and implied the reaction was her fault, I countered with the position that the Type 2 vaccine caused her immune deficiency since she had never been sick in her life before contact with that vaccine. After settling that lawsuit against the manufacturer for failure to warn, I instituted a Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA) lawsuit against HEW for regulatory violations in the license and release of OPV, in general, and the individual Lot of polio vaccine, in particular. In addition, I challenged the FDA’s intention to use Sabin’s live oral polio vaccine (OPV) for immunization of unwitting contacts of vaccine recipients as an unconstitutional invasion of their privacy (see Loge v. United States, 662 F.2d 1268 8th Cir. 1981), which evolved into civil actions of “battery” against the sole manufacturer of the Sabin vaccine –American Cyanamid.

Q. Can you tell us what happened in that case?

A. From my perspective I gained a profound disrespect for the FDA and pro-vaccine defense experts who pretended the case could have been from wild polio in spite of the fact that most, if not all of the polio in the United States at that time, arose from parents coming into contact with the polio viruses shed in their child’s stool or saliva.

Their justification then, similar to their justification now, arose from an unwritten CDC/FDA policy to “sacrifice some for the good of the whole” – a comment related to me by a senior CDC physician, Dr. Michael Gregg, in a private conversation.

This explains why zero funding is available to do clinical studies of vaccine reactions in the United States.

Both of the lawsuits settled before trial. The trial judge dismissed the FTCA lawsuit and was overturned on appeal in the decision cited above.

Q. Before you go further, can you please explain what a Vaccine Injury Table is?

A. According to HHS Health Resources and Services Administration, “The Vaccine Injury Table (Table) makes it easier for some people to get compensation.” [1]

It makes it easier for some and impossible for others. Certain reactions within a set time period are automatically compensated. For example, the parent of a child who became paralyzed by polio within 60 days of the child’s receiving the live polio vaccine would automatically be compensated. This was the most common reaction to both live and inactivated polio vaccines.

However, a child acquiring an encephalitis where the Colburn strain of CMV (cytomegalovirus) was isolated from his brain at the age of six, would not be compensated unless his lawyer were clever enough to discover that the Colburn strain of CMV is actually simian in origin and came from the African green monkeys used to produce the live polio vaccine.

Recently Baboon endogenous retrovirus (BERV) was discovered in MMR vaccine, but no one has access to the tests to detect it in children with possible vaccine reactions. Since it is a live vaccine, one would expect the onset to occur within 3 days to three years, nor would anyone know how to correlate it to the particular Lot of vaccine given as FDA keeps such information secret.a “commercial privilege” protection under FOIA.

Q. Walter, what I find interesting about the Vaccine Injury Table is something most proponents of vaccines/vaccinations probably are not aware and it is “The Table lists and explains injuries/conditions that are presumed to be caused by vaccines.” [1] So, in effect, HHS/CDC/FDA agree vaccines can cause damage. I suggest every parent becomes familiar with the Vaccine Injury Table in the link at reference [1].

A. The Table is per se inadequate and a mother or father should follow their gut instinct when faced with a vaccine reaction most of which are probably not on the Vaccine Injury Table. Currently there are laboratory-testing methods developed, but withheld from diagnostic use by FDA that can quickly and cheaply link reactions to vaccines. I do not feel anyone should subject their child to an immunization unless faced with an actual, not a CDC forecast, epidemic of a life-threatening pathogen. That is, until those testing procedures are made available to the general public for diagnostic evaluations of both the injured and of the vaccines which are administered.

I am not anti-vaccine but strongly oppose FDA/CDC/NIH B.S. (rhetoric and hyperbole) when it comes to evaluation of vaccine reactions. For example: Dr. Jonas Salk, developer of the inactivated polio vaccine (IPV) gave unchallenged testimony before the Senate Committee establishing the Vaccine Injury Table that there had been no paralytic reactions to the Salk vaccine in 450,000,000 doses resulting in a Table that provided no compensation for IPV-caused polio. The FDA stood by and said absolutely nothing, but had good reason to know Salk’s testimony was not true. Really!

Salk had provided expert assistance and consultation to me for 12 years while the ongoing feud between Sabin and Salk brewed over which vaccine should be used in the United States.

When the Chief Special Master appointed me to head an Attorneys Committee to investigate the possibility that Salk’s vaccine had caused hundreds of cases of polio that had never been linked to the vaccine by FDA, I truly believed that Salk’s vaccine had never caused polio except in one isolated manufacturing problem in 1955.

After the Committee investigated and discovered that not only had Salk’s IPV caused polio, it had probably started epidemics, and the famous “Frances Field Trials,” which the FDA’s predecessor touted as proving IPV’s absolute safety, were “rigged” and probably caused as much polio as they prevented.

Q. Walter, that’s something that isn’t well known and apparently pushed under the carpet, as they say.

A. Under the carpet would have been nice, HHS pushed the attorneys on my committee out the door. The Justice Department attorney began attacking members of the Committee on trivial issues, objected to our being paid promptly in all matters including other cases and ultimately all of us stopped practicing in the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program.

By 1988, I concluded, based on evidence discovered from the OPV manufacturer’s files and FOIA litigation against the FDA, that FDA allowed release of live Sabin oral polio vaccines that also contained live simian retroviruses and/or viable genetic sequences of such retroviruses within the polio vaccine itself – a fact admitted by the Director of the Bureau of Biologics on April 15, 1980 in the Federal Register.

In 1992 a world renowned medical journal, The Lancet, published my paper, “Simian retroviruses, polio vaccine and origin of AIDS” 339:600-601 (Mar. 7 1992), which linked the 1981 AIDS outbreak in the United States to the nationwide use of OPV for treatment of genital herpes in homosexual men by dermatologists. Following multiple oral doses of OPV, the viruses passed in their stools along with the then unknown simian retroviruses and herpes viruses (i.e., SIV and KSHV – Kaposi’s Sarcoma Herpes Virus – and CMV – Cytomegalovirus). Curiously, this panorama of simian herpes viruses also infected the first AIDS victims.

That article identified specific lots of contaminated OPV and suggested independent testing, which FDA refused to retest, but “pretended” that it had through false press releases in 1996. The FDA faced huge liability here so they spent millions sending someone to find AIDS-like virus in chimpanzees which is more genetically similar to HIV than any of the other simian viruses, problem was, the chimps would eat the same African green monkeys, the source of all SIVs, which were used in the oral polio vaccine.

Curiously, Sabin’s Type II oral polio vaccine, most frequently (of the three Types in a single dose of Sabin OPV) associated with the immune deficient category of paralytic polio was administered to and ultimately isolated from the stool of a chimpanzee.

I believe an honest evaluation of the science would place AIDS under the vaccine injury table, and what a massive expense that would be.

[HILLEMAN REALIZED THAT THE DISCOVERY OF THESE "VACULATING VIRUSES" BY BERNICE EDDY AND SARAH STEWART FORESHADOWED PANDEMIC CANCER.]


[Dr. Maurice Hilleman] So now I've got to have something, you know, that's going to attract attention.

[Woman, WGBH Production Staff] [Laughing]

[Dr. Maurice Hilleman] So I thought, "Gee, that damn SV40, I mean, that damn vaculating agent that we have. I'm going to just pick that particular one. That virus has got to be in vaccines. And it's got to be in Sabin's vaccines, so I quickly tested it.

[WGBH Production Staff] [Laughing]

[Dr. Maurice Hilleman] Sure enough, it was in there.

[Dr. Edward Shorter, Medical Historian] I'll be damned.

[Dr. Edward Shorter, Medical Historian] So you just took stocks of Sabin's vaccine off the shelf here at Merck?

[Dr. Maurice Hilleman] Yeah, well it was made at Merck.

[Dr. Edward Shorter, Medical Historian] You were making it for Sabin at this point?

[Dr. Maurice Hilleman] Yeah, it was made before I came.

[Dr. Edward Shorter, Medical Historian] Yeah, but at this point Sabin is still just doing these massive field trials?

[Dr. Maurice Hilleman] Uh-huh.

[Dr. Edward Shorter, Medical Historian] Okay.

[INITIALLY MILLIONS OF RUSSIANS, LATER MILLIONS OF AMERICANS, WERE INFECTED WITH CANCER VIRUSES IN POLIO VACCINES.]


[Dr. Maurice Hilleman] In Russia and so forth. So I go down and talked about the detection of non-detectable viruses. And I told Albert, I --

[Dr. Edward Shorter, Medical Historian] But at this point Sabin is still just doing these massive field trials?

[Dr. Maurice Hilleman] Uh-huh.

[Dr. Edward Shorter, Medical Historian] Okay.

[Dr. Maurice Hilleman] In Russia and so forth. So I go down and talked about the detection of non-detectable viruses. And I told Albert, I said, "Listen, Albert," I said, "You know, you and I are good friends." But I said, "I'm going to go down there -- you're going to get upset -- but I'm going to talk about a virus that's in your vaccine. Now, you're going to get rid of the virus. Don't worry about it. You're going to get rid of it. So of course, Albert was very upset with me.

[Dr. Edward Shorter, Medical Historian] What did he say?

[Dr. Maurice Hilleman] Well, he said, basically that this is just another obfuscation that is going to upset vaccines.

[VISIT A FREE POLIO VACCINE STATION TODAY]


And I said, "Well, you know, you're absolutely right." But I said, "We have a new era here, we have a new era of a detection. And the important thing is to get rid of these viruses.

[Dr. Edward Shorter, Medical Historian] Why would he call it an "obfuscation" if it was a virus that was contaminating the vaccine?

[40 DIFFERENT VIRUSES IN THESE VACCINES ... NOT ALL INACTIVATED]


[Dr. Maurice Hilleman] Well, there were 40 different viruses in these vaccines anyway that we were inactivating. And --

[Dr. Edward Shorter, Medical Historian] But you weren't inactivating the [inaudible].

[YELLOW FEVER VACCINE HAD LEUKEMIA VIRUS IN IT.]


[THIS IS IN THE DAYS OF VERY CRUDE SCIENCE.]


[Dr. Maurice Hilleman] That's correct. No, that's right. But, sheesh, yellow fever vaccine had leukemia virus in it. You know, this is in the days of very crude science.

George and Margaret Gey were husband-and-wife pioneers in the field of tissue culture. George, who stood well over six feet tall and had a broad chest, was an idea man and a tinkerer. Among his many inventions was something called a roller tube, a sealed glass vessel in which living cells were periodically bathed in a nutrient solution as the tube was slowly rotated. He blew the glass for the first tube himself and rigged up a primitive rotor using the pendulum of a clock. It became a standard in the field. A zealot when it came to the care and feeding of cells, George Gey once bought an entire boxcar full of powdered soap for washing culture dishes; it seems the local market had switched to a newfangled detergent that sometimes left residues harmful to cells, and George wanted to make sure he'd never be forced to use the stuff. Although a native of Pittsburgh, he had a country boy's air. He spoke plainly and with warmth as readily to cab drivers as to scientific dignitaries. He ran his lab like an informal college of tissue culture, sharing equipment and knowledge with any student or scientist who wanted to learn. And for a few hours every Wednesday, he went fishing.

Margaret, trained as a surgical nurse, was the meticulous director of day-to-day operations in the laboratory. As long as everyone did his share, she was an amicable boss. If necessary, however, she could play the role of the stern head nurse. She saw to it that the cultures were fed on schedule, that the glassware was sterilized according to specifications, that the records were kept in order. George was regularly out of the lab, hunting for funds and lecturing, but Margaret was always there, working long days and weekends, all of it without pay.

Together the Geys were trying to put some science into the folk art of growing cells. If reliable methods could be devised to keep cells alive in a roller tube and to trick them into thinking they were still inside a body, then scientists could learn firsthand about human biology without having to experiment on human beings directly. The workings not only of healthy cells but also of sick ones could be revealed. That possibility -- of capturing human diseases under glass and dissecting them for their underlying causes -- was what lured the Geys and several other research teams into the business of culturing tissue. Their greatest hope was to establish and study long-lasting cultures of the most dread human disease, to have, as some put it, "a tumor in a test tube."

But it was slow, difficult, sometimes grizzly work. In order to give their cells a proper feeding solution, for example, they had to find the raw materials themselves. Several times a week Margaret went to the Hopkins hospital's maternity ward to collect one ingredient believed to stimulate cell growth: blood from human placentas. One of the maternity nurses would press a button that set off a buzzer in the Geys' lab, signaling that a fresh placenta was being put aside for them. Margaret soon arrived, cleaned off the sac's umbilical cord, and, plunging a fat syringe into one of the cord's larger blood vessels, pulled out as much as 50 cubic centimeters, about a third of a cup. Back at the lab the serum component, the slightly yellowish fluid containing proteins, was removed from the blood and combined with what the Geys called beef embryo extract. This was the ground-up remains of a three-week-old cattle embryo, collected periodically from a cooperative packing house. Because the recipe also called for chicken plasma, every so often the Geys visited a nearby poultry factory. They usually went about dawn so that few workers would be around to witness the spectacle. Margaret's job was to pull back the wing, swab the area around the ribs with alcohol, and hold the animal still while George poked the syringe directly into its heart. They took 50 cubic centimeters from each chicken, and most walked right off the table and back to the yard. They had a deal with the owner to buy any bird that didn't survive. On such occasions Margaret cooked the unlucky animal for dinner that evening.

As for the cells to be grown in this elixir of plasma and serum and embryo mash, the Geys had to go out and collect them as well. Every day George scanned the hospital's list of upcoming operations and procedures, looking for interesting sources of tissue. He or Margaret or one of the technicians stood in the appropriate operating room holding a few petri dishes ready for a scrap. Then they raced back to the lab, placed the pulpy fragment on a clot of chicken plasma, added the remaining parts of their cell food, and hoped that it would take.

It was discouraging. No matter how clean their glassware, no matter how potent their nutrient solution, no matter how careful their technique, cells simply weren't comfortable growing outside the human body. The Geys had had considerably more success with animal cells, including some that had survived for years now. But most human cells shriveled and died right away. Some held on for a few weeks, coaxed and coddled by Margaret's diligence, and then gave up. It was a testimony to the Geys' abilities that by early 1951, they had managed to keep a few lines of human cancer cells alive for several months. It was a testimony to their determination that they kept trying to establish new ones.

Mary Kubicek, however, was running low on determination. A twenty-one-year-old technician just out of college and newly trained by the Geys, Mary was frustrated by her current assignment: an attempt to establish a culture of cervical cancer cells. Mary was shy and slightly insecure; that made her doubly careful and especially hardworking, even measured by the high standards of the Gey lab. Nonetheless after trying samples of cervical cancer from a dozen different patients, all she and her fellow technicians had to show were dead cultures. When George Gey announced around noon on 9 February that he had dropped off yet another cervical cancer biopsy in Mary's work area, she didn't attend to it right away. Uncharacteristically, she lingered a few minutes at the lunch table and finished her sandwich. What's the difference, she thought. It'll just be another useless attempt.

The tumor fragment was red, roughly square, less than half an inch on a side. Gey explained that it had been taken from a patient in the women's clinic just before she underwent radiation therapy. Following the usual procedure, the tissue was code-named with the first two letters of the donor's first and last names: HeLa. Mary cut away the decaying, brown tissue around the edges and sliced the remaining chunk into tiny cubes. She pipetted a few drops of chicken plasma into several roller tubes and placed four cubes of tissue in each tube. She waited five minutes for the plasma to stiffen into a clot, and then added the rest of the feeding solution. Finally, she placed the tubes into a rolling rack inside the laboratory's incubator.

Had Mary been staring through the glass doors of the incubator, she wouldn't have seen the early signs of life. It happens so slowly at first and so sporadically. Maybe it was a matter of hours, maybe the better part of a day passed. At some point, the cells in each little island of tumor began to quiver and dance ... and multiply. Where there had been one, there were now two. Where there had been two, now four, now sixteen, now thirty-two. In a few days, the signs of growth were visible: around each cube a translucent band of new cells was taking shape. On the fourth day Mary had to remove the burgeoning bits of flesh from the roller tubes, carve them up into smaller pieces, and transfer the cuttings into additional tubes.

Every other human cell line in the Gey lab had eventually weakened and faltered. Yet as the months passed the HeLa cells showed no such vulnerability. They just kept growing, doubling their number every twenty-four hours "spreading like crabgrass!" was how Margaret Gey described it. At one point George Gey compared the performance of the cancerous HeLa cells to the performance of the normal cervical tissue taken from Henrietta Lacks: the tumor cells were growing ten to twenty times faster. It was too early to start celebrating, and George Gey wasn't the sort to stop and congratulate himself anyway. But there was no doubt about it, these cells were different.

***

The tumor within Henrietta Lacks was different too, though the doctors didn't know it at the time. Most cervical tumors -- especially those found at an early stage, as was Henrietta's -- were easily beaten back by radiation. Most patients were still alive five years after therapy. So after several more radium treatments, the doctors gave her one month of X-ray therapy and hoped that would be the end of it. "No symptoms referable to the pelvis," wrote one who examined her in May. "Cervix is normal in size, mucosa red and smooth, cervix freely movable. Good radiation result. Rx: Return in one month." In June he wrote: "Patient feels fairly well, but continues to complain of vague lower abdominal discomfort. Cervix appears perfectly normal. No evidence of recurrence. Rx: Return in one month."

By late July Henrietta's side aches could no longer be described as vague. Now they were extreme and radiating down into the groin. Not only that, something was constricting the area around her bladder so severely that her kidneys began to swell with urine. The doctors also found a large, stony mass of tissue on the inside of her pelvis and another tumor in a lymph gland. With shocking speed the cancer had reappeared and spread so extensively that the doctors considered it inoperable: "For this reason, we are giving the patient a second course of deep X-ray therapy purely as a symptomatic therapy."

She was admitted to the hospital on 8 August, ten days before her thirty-first birthday. For the next twenty-two days she ran a constant fever of 100 to 102 degrees; she also began vomiting regularly. Despite the X-ray treatment, tumors were filling her abdomen. The treatment was halted.

In mid-September, with the fever, pain, and nausea continuing, she developed uremia, a buildup in the blood of poisonous waste products normally eliminated by the kidneys and bladder. The doctors tried to insert a catheter tube through the mass of tumors that choked her bladder, but failed. They gave her transfusions, replacing her own polluted blood with a fresh supply. Her intestine, however, was also blocked and her abdomen was beginning to expand.

On 26 September one of the doctors looked over her order sheet, the long list of various drugs, procedures, and treatments that had been prescribed to try to save Henrietta Lacks. At the bottom of the list, he scrawled: "Discontinue all medication and treatments except analgesics." All he could do was try to relieve the pain. On 29 September, Henrietta Lacks became disoriented, apparently confused about where she was and what she had been going through. She stopped breathing at fifteen minutes after midnight on 4 October 1951.

It had been only eight months from the time the small red patch was first discovered in her cervix to the day it killed her. For cancer of the cervix, the doctors said, it was some kind of a record.

***

No one in the Gey laboratory laid eyes on their unfortunate benefactor until 4 October when George Gey noticed a listing for the autopsy and went to observe. Because he wanted a few more samples of the remarkable tumor cell, he asked Mary Kubicek to meet him there and collect them.

The Hopkins autopsy room was buried in the basement of another building. Mary had never been there before. In fact she had never been to any autopsy facility or to a morgue or to anything like that. She made her way anxiously through the maze of dim underground hallways that connected the laboratory building to the other basement.

The room had high ceilings and a bare stone floor. At the far end Mary saw a body on the table. A pathologist was hunched over it, at work, and Gey stood nearby. The dead woman's arms had been pulled up and back so that the pathologist could get at her chest. Even from a distance Mary could see that the body had been split down the middle and opened wide.

She walked to the table, sidestepped one of the outstretched arms, and held out her petri dishes. As she waited she gaped at the greyish white tumor globules that filled the corpse. It looked as if the inside of the body was studded with pearls. Strings of them ran over the surfaces of the liver, diaphragm, intestine, appendix, rectum, and heart. Thick clusters were heaped on top of the ovaries and fallopian tubes. The bladder area was the worst, covered by a solid mass of cancerous tissue. "Bladder pushed to anterior abdominal wall," wrote the pathologist, "Almost entirely replaced with tumor."

Mary's eyes wandered down toward the corpse's feet and suddenly she was overcome. The toes. They were painted with bright red nail polish, and a dainty job it was. It suddenly made this carved-up cadaver real. All the laboratory experimentation had never hinted at the tragedy of this disease. But here, she thought, over here on the table is the proper demonstration. Here is what cancer does.

The pathologist sliced pieces of tumor from different organs and dropped them one-by-one into the dishes in Mary's hands. It seemed to Mary that he took forever. Finally, she fled: across the expansive stone floor and out of the autopsy room, through the catacombs, and up the stairs from the basement. Back at the lab she concentrated on the task at hand, cutting up the tissue and placing the pieces into roller tubes. In the bright familiar surroundings, her horror quickly faded. The image of the delicately polished toenails, however, lingered. In the years that followed, that sight came back to her often.

As for the cadaverous cells, they would not grow. The uremia had made it impossible for anything to live within the body of Henrietta Lacks. The cancer's sabotage had been so effective, it killed not only its host, but also itself.

That's not quite right, of course. Part of what had been Henrietta Lacks's cancer was not dead. Some of the cells had escaped their own poisonous wreckage eight months earlier on the edge of a surgeon's knife, abetted by the tissue culturing skills of Mary Kubicek. Dining on clotted chicken plasma, chopped beef embryo, and the blood from human placentas, the surviving cancer cells of Henrietta Lacks were living quite comfortably -- thriving, in fact -- in glass tubes in George Gey's lab.

***

In the early 1950s many Americans would have named cellophane science's niftiest invention. To the small community of researchers trying to grow human cells in their laboratories, however, the truly great breakthrough was the HeLa cell. At last, here was a cell with staying power, the first durable piece of a human being that could be watched up close and tinkered with. No more racing to finish an experiment before a sickly culture wheezed and fell dead. This cell would last, not just through one series of tests but through dozens, for months, maybe for years.

In fact George Gey and two co-workers at the University of Minnesota showed that HeLa cells were so rugged they could survive a 2,500-mile trip through the mail. They sent twenty-nine live cultures by air, rail, and truck from Minneapolis to Norwich, New York, and back; all but one returned in fine health. A cell line that held on in the lab was what everyone had been hoping for, of course, but one that could endure handling by the U.S. Post Office was a blessed miracle.

Soon it seemed every biomedical scientist in the country was either sending or receiving a HeLagram. Gey started it by mailing samples of HeLa cells to a few close colleagues, who grew up some extra cultures and sent them to their friends, who did likewise. When the frenzied demand for HeLa outpaced this informal network, a number of laboratories set up full-scale production lines and began passing around HeLa cultures the way McDonald's shovels out its burgers and fries. Mary Kubicek heard that one shipment of HeLa was being carried by backpack into Chile and another was on its way to Turkey. In a few years HeLa cells would even travel into space aboard the Discoverer XVII satellite.

Cancer researchers craved HeLa most of all because it was their long-sought tumor in a test tube. They watched the cells react to a battery of toxic chemicals and photographed the weirdly shaped chromosomes. Scientists interested in the general workings of human cells clocked the rate at which HeLa cells multiplied and studied their production of proteins. Virologists, who found that polio viruses multiplied a millionfold just two to three days after infecting a HeLa culture, made HeLa their major new tool for studying the viruses. A year later they knew enough about polio to produce the first successful vaccine.

And, of course, every scientist who wanted to learn the methods of tissue culture insisted on starting with HeLa. The newcomers had been told how frustrating much of the work would be, how rarely a piece of tissue would yield a sustainable cell line. But with HeLa, they knew they couldn't lose. The advent of HeLa was not only a boost for the beginners, though. It also seemed to change the luck of the researchers who were struggling to establish other human cell lines.

It was as though George Gey had broken biology's four-minute mile. Once he had shown it was possible to produce a strong and long-lived cell line from human tissue, his fellow cell culturists went back to the lab with new confidence and enthusiasm -- and damned if they weren't able to do it too. One scientist successfully cultivated a hardy strain of human liver cells. Another started up a cell line from a bit of amniotic sac. Then came a culture from a tumor of the larynx, followed quickly by sturdy lines of embryonic kidney cells and adult heart cells and cancerous blood cells. True, the cultures didn't always bloom right away. But eventually, a few days or a few weeks after being seeded, somehow they all began growing at a strong and steady pace. For the next ten years, from the early 1950s to the early 1960s, the science of cell culture flourished as well.

***

A few of the old guard saw the calamity coming. With so many new cells in circulation, and with no means of positively identifying them, they knew there would be mixups. So they tried to head off the problem. Some learned to tell cells apart by the shapes of the chromosomes, others by how antibodies reacted to particular cultures. The methods were crude, but they worked well enough to show the scientists they had been right to worry.

One of the first cultures they checked was a human line that one day, for no apparent reason, lost its susceptibility to polio. Their identification tests suggested the cells were no longer human but had somehow been replaced by mouse cells. Then the same thing happened to a monkey cell line. Soon they found human cells growing in what should have been pig, duck, and mouse cultures. And there were mouse cells growing in rabbit cultures and rabbit cells where monkey cells should have been.

Most cell culturists were still celebrating the renaissance. But by the late 1950s many samples of the useful cell lines -- both the old, established animal cultures and some of the new human ones -- had lost their identities. An investigator who needed a normal monkey cell for his experiments could no longer be sure he wasn't working on a tumor cell from a human larynx. How could he interpret results when he couldn't even say what he had been experimenting on?

The reasons for the mess were obvious to the old guard. In a word these new people were sloppy. They were probably mislabeling cultures. Hell, they were probably using the same pipettes to feed different cultures, inadvertently picking up a few cells out of one dish and dropping them into another. If the first cells were stronger, they would grow over the second culture and replace it. Such faux pas slipped by unnoticed in many hectic labs where accurate record keeping had become a lost art. In addition, cell swapping was rampant. And when one researcher traded materials with another, he also traded mistakes.

Well, things simply couldn't go on this way, declared the veterans who had uncovered the confusion. They decided to rescue the field by setting up a central cell bank, a Fort Knox for cell cultures. Not just any cell cultures, you understand, only those with clearly defined characteristics and carefully documented histories. No shadowy pasts allowed, no vagabond cells that had wandered from one nameless lab to another. With the help of the National Cancer Institute, which was also beginning to worry about the quality of cell cultures, the group announced in 1962 that the nation's "reference cells" would be housed at the American Type Culture Collection, a private supplier of biological materials in Washington, D.C. Workers there would maintain these purebred cultures and distribute them to any researcher who wanted the very best. Over the next four years, the cell bank filled its refrigerators and incubators with more than two dozen high-quality cultures. It looked as if the science of tissue culture had backed away from the brink of chaos.

Yet as careful as they were, the founders of the bank were for years haunted by doubts. Most of their screening tests determined only what kind of animal a cell line came from. They could tell mouse from human, but they couldn't easily tell most human cells apart. What they needed were markers, chemical or structural fingerprints that were readily recognized and unique to each cell line within a species.

In 1966 a Seattle geneticist named Stanley Cartier stood up at a scientific meeting in Bedford, Pennsylvania, and offered the tissue culturists just what they needed. In appreciation, the tissue culturists practically ran him out of town.

***

As part of his study of human genes, Cartier had been looking for long-lasting cell lines that produced certain isoenzymes, enzymes that are present in every human cell but may vary in style from person to person. One of the isoenzymes of interest to Cartier was C6PD, the glucose metabolizing enzyme that comes in two styles, type A and B. Another was PCM, available in types 1, 2, and 1-2, a combination of styles analogous to the blood type AB.

Cartier first analyzed the PCM in a few of the established human cell lines and was surprised to find the same form of the enzyme in each: type 1. He tested a few more and then a few more. He stopped at eighteen. Now it is true that in an average population many people would have type 1 in their cells, but the statistics require that nearly a third of them should not. That was what bothered Cartier. When he tested the cultures for the C6PD enzyme, again they were all the same: type A. That meant that every cell line he checked had come from a black person. Most of the established cell lines, however, had reportedly been cultured from Caucasian patients. Only HeLa was known to have come from a black.

Because HeLa was the earliest successful cell line, used in virtually every lab before the rest of these eighteen cultures came along, Cartier drew what he thought was an obvious conclusion.

Oddly enough he didn't think his serendipitous finding was all that important. After all, it offered no new scientific principle or insight. The main point to him was that these variants of different enzymes could be used for telling human cells apart; they were practical tools for sorting out existing mix-ups and preventing future ones. In fact the title of the paper he submitted to the Bedford conference was "Genetic Markers as Tracers in Cell Culture." But then Stan Cartier was a geneticist, not a tissue culturist.

"My Cod, they're going to tear you limb from limb," said a friend when Cartier arrived at the meeting to deliver his report. "I can't believe what you're saying."

Cartier said it nonetheless. He stood up in the convention hall of the Bedford Springs Hotel and said that his tools for distinguishing human cell cultures demonstrated that most of them weren't different at all. He said that the eighteen cell lines he tested, samples of which were now in the vaults of the nation's new cell bank, were really just the ever-popular HeLa cells. He added, almost incidentally, that researchers who had experimented on these cervical cancer cells believing they were liver, or blood, or bone marrow, or anything else had better reconsider their findings. "The work is open to serious question," said Cartier, "and in my opinion would be best discarded."

The tissue culturists were not pleased to hear this, particularly from a geneticist, particularly since they had spent the last ten or fifteen years studying samples of these cells, thinking they were looking at many distinct forms of cancer and at normal tissue from lots of different organs. Even the founders of the cell bank who had suspected trouble found it hard to believe. And to the researchers who had actually created the cultures on Cartier's list of spoiled goods, who had toiled for years and suffered repeated disappointments before they finally got those cultures to take root, his findings were impossible. They began hurling skeptical questions.

Just how did he know the cells hadn't been taken over by HeLa in his own laboratory?

They were all analyzed as soon as he received them, Gartler answered.

But hadn't some been sent to him frozen?

We can analyze frozen samples, said Gartler.

Well, isn't it possible for a cell to change its enzyme type -- from G6PD type B to A, for instance -- and still remain the same in all other ways?

Gartler sighed. These people were obviously not geneticists. He explained that there are indeed some characteristics in a cell that may readily change. In a developing embryo, for example, a cell that had been relatively nondescript may, in the process of "differentiating," turn on various genes that manufacture different kinds of proteins. But there is only one gene in each cell that controls the production of the G6PD enzyme; that gene specifies either type A or type B, and it is always turned on.

What about random mutations?

Gartler estimated that the chances of a mutation reshaping the gene for type B into a gene for type A would be less than one in a billion. Even if so unlikely a mutation took place in a single cell, why would that single cell overtake the rest of a culture, Gartler asked. And why should such unlikely occurrences have happened in all eighteen cell lines?

Leonard Hayflick stood up. A highly respected cell biologist and an officer of the Tissue Culture Association, which was sponsoring the conference, Hayflick was also the originator of a cell line known as WISH. WISH was one of the cultures that Gartler had discredited. It was a culture grown from a scrap of amniotic sac. In fact, Hayflick told the attentive audience, WISH had been taken from the amniotic sac in which his daughter Susan came into the world. WISH stood for Wistar Institute, where Hayflick was working, and for Susan Hayflick. Since Hayflick and his wife were both Caucasian, the claim that WISH showed a genetic trait found only in blacks was a tad awkward.

In perfect deadpan, Hayflick announced, "I have just telephoned my wife, who assured me that my worst fears are unfounded."

The crowd thought that was hilarious, and the tension eased. But Gartler wasn't so sure that Hayflick was genuinely jovial. And when the laughter died down, the eminent cell biologist dismissed the geneticist's conclusions, saying simply they were very difficult for him to accept.

Then rose Harvard University's Robert Chang, another luminary of cell biology and a trustee of the Tissue Culture Association. Chang was the creator of one of the most popular of human cell lines. The Chang liver culture was used extensively in studies of liver function.

Whatever culture Gartler claims to have analyzed, said Chang, it wasn't a culture that came from Chang. "I have never sent him any cell line, and I don't remember ever having corresponded with him."

Gartler explained that one of his samples of Chang liver had come from a co-worker at the University of Washington in Seattle. The other came directly from the cell bank at the American Type Culture Collection. In fact, six of the eighteen cultures he examined had come straight from that storehouse of only the best and most carefully screened cultures. The important point, said Gartler, is that while there may well be some genuine samples of these cultures at certain laboratories, there are others in active use that are impostors. Unless experimenters can tell the bona fide from the bogus, he said, much of the research done on these cultures is in doubt.

It looked to Gartler as if Chang was contemplating murder -- or suicide -- but all he did was sit down.

More skeptical questions, more icy speeches. The session finally ended at noon, Gartler escaped from the room, and the tissue culturists changed their tactics. Now it was a war of isolation. They ostracized him for his wild and insolent claims. Through most of lunch he sat alone. One of the few who dared to join him was a young researcher from California. As a technical advisor to the cell bank, the researcher was as disturbed as the others about Cartier's findings. At the same time, though, he admired Cartier for sticking his neck out, and he told him so. The researcher's name was Walter Nelson-Rees.

***

It wasn't until two years later that Gartler's incredible conclusions were confirmed. By 1968 two independent research teams had applied his methods to all the human cultures deposited in the cell bank at the American Type Culture Collection. Out of thirty-four cell lines, they found twenty-four to be HeLa.

How could it have happened?

The most likely explanation was the same combination of sloppiness and opportunity that in the late 1950s had shuffled mouse cells with human cells and duck cells with monkey cells. HeLa had a number of advantages that helped it pull the trick off on a disastrously large scale. Since it was the first useful human cell line, it was the most ubiquitous: wherever technicians were careless, there were always a few HeLa cells nearby to take advantage. Because it was also one of the most vigorous cultures known, it could easily take over weaker cultures if given half a chance.

HeLa was so tenacious, in fact, that it probably didn't need to wait for a lab worker to use the same pipette on different cultures. A startling series of experiments reported in 1961 by Lewis Coriell, one of the old guard who had helped start the reference cell bank, had shown HeLa could literally appear out of thin air. Coriell, working at the Institute for Medical Research in Camden, New Jersey, found that merely pulling a stopper from a test tube or dispensing liquid from a dropper could launch tiny airborne droplets containing a few HeLa cells. When the drops landed on open petri dishes holding live cultures, the HeLa cells began growing so feverishly that in three weeks they overwhelmed the original cultures.

To some it had seemed an unbelievable observation. But now it looked as though much the same thing must have happened to all the human cultures that appeared in the 1950s soon after HeLa. Those cells had probably been as weak and hard to cultivate as the ones that had been tried in the pioneering days; they were easy victims for HeLa. A few of the more cynical scientists suspected there had never been anything but HeLa in those new cultures. The cells from the original tissue samples had probably died immediately, leaving a culture dish of nutrients ripe and ready for the next HeLa cell that happened by.

Either way, for Coriell and some of the other experts, HeLa's surreptitious spread explained a few puzzling observations that cancer researchers had made in recent years. One such enigma was "spontaneous transformation," a mysterious process by which benign cells suddenly turned malignant. There it was right in the dish, the very nut of the cancer problem: healthy cells, going along in a calm and orderly way, abruptly burst into unbridled growth. Not only did they grow faster, they were no longer bound by the normal cells' lifetime limit of fifty to sixty divisions. The transformed cells ignored their biological clocks and continued doubling without end.

The weird thing about spontaneous transformation was that until the late 1950s and early 1960s, it was never known to occur in human cells. Cultures of rat, mouse, hamster, and other animal cells had been spontaneously transforming for years, but never a human cell culture. Then suddenly it was happening all the time. Not only that, these spontaneously transformed cells grew rings around many cells taken directly from patients' tumors. Nobody could explain why normal cells that turned malignant in the lab should be more aggressive than cells that had become malignant while in the body, but for the moment scientists were delighted to have all these tenacious new cultures.

Much later it became clear that these transformations were not spontaneous at all, but had been triggered by outside agents. In the case of the nonhuman cells, chemicals in the nutrient medium, oxygen in the air over the cultures, even fluorescent lighting in the laboratory were eventually found to inflict genetic harm that can turn normal cells cancerous. As for the human cells, most "transformations" appeared to be nothing more than takeovers of the cultures by the feisty HeLa cells.

Spontaneous transformation was not the only myth HeLa created about the nature of cancer. Researchers had observed that cancer cells shared many fundamental characteristics, and there had begun to emerge a unifying theory: all cancer cells grew relatively quickly and had the same basic nutritional requirements; they seeded new tumors when inoculated into the cheeks of hamsters; many had abnormally shaped chromosomes; and most carried the same surface antigens, proteins on the outside of the cell that stimulate the body's immune system. Like winning lemons in a casino full of rigged slot machines, these traits kept coming up one after another in dozens of cell lines the scientists thought had come from dozens of cancer patients. The truth was they had been studying one line of cells masquerading as all the others, and the common traits they saw were those of a single tumor, the one that killed Henrietta Lacks.

"They described a lot of things they thought were being produced by intestine and kidney and other cells," recalled Coriell years later. "There was a lot of data in the literature that was just wrong, just a lot of wasted time because they were all working with HeLa."

Cyril Stulberg of the Child Research Center in Detroit, like Coriell one of the deans of cell culture, came as close as anyone to assessing HeLa's effect on this early period of cell biology and cancer work. He made the remark in a letter to Nelson-Rees many years after Cartier's HeLa revelations. "I didn't realize then what the succeeding years would bring," Stulberg wrote. "Naturally, at the time, I was very defensive because I saw 15 years work go down the drain."

But Stulberg, Coriell, and the other veterans faced up to the calamity and began to clear away the wreckage. As the architects of the fledgling central cell bank, they were reluctant to simply throw out the twenty-four HeLa-contaminated cultures. HeLa, after all was a sturdy line and these individual strains had various quirks and characteristics that made them particularly useful to certain fields of research. The solution, they decided, was an addendum to the cell bank's catalogue in 1968 warning that the twenty-four lines were actually HeLa and should be used as such. Moreover, they required even more detailed descriptions of new lines deposited in the bank and recommended not only Cartier's enzyme tests but any other promising techniques of identification as well.

This time, they hoped, they would put HeLa contamination and all the other chaos behind them. And, indeed, as the 1960s came to a close, it appeared that the cell biologists had recovered from Stan Cartier's bombshell. Cartier himself went back to studying genetics, having done quite enough for cell culture.

[SLOAN CANCER FOUNDATION PAID PRESTON $20,000 TO DISTRACT THE PUBLIC FROM REALIZING EBOLA EMERGED FROM BIOWEAPONS CONTRACTOR BIONETICS.]


[Dr. Leonard George Horowitz] But the biggest best seller, "The Hot Zone," by author Richard Preston, was different. Extremely dishonest. Author Richard Preston was paid by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, among the cancer industry's largest benefactors, intimately tied to the Rockefeller family's influence, to present easily-proven deceptions. Preston reported that Ebola emerged from bat guano, at the bottom of a deep dark cave in Southern Sudan.

The patient’s travel group consisted of 7 Dutch tourists and 2 guides. Three of the tourists, including the patient, and 1 guide visited an empty cave on June 16 in Fort Portal and the Python Cave in the Maramagambo Forest on June 19. The patient’s partner recalled bats flying around in the latter cave, bumping against the visitors, and large amounts of droppings on the ground. She incurred no bite wounds, and no preexisting wounds were exposed to bats. On July 23, the travel group came within 5 m of gorillas in the wild and visited a village inhabited by pygmies, where they saw an elderly sick woman lying under a blanket.

We postulated that the most probable source of MARV infection was the visit to the Python Cave, known for its colony of Egyptian fruit-eating bats (Rousettus aegyptiacus). The party had photographed these bats, and this species of bat has been shown to carry filoviruses, including MARV (16,17) in other sub-Saharan locations. We estimated the incubation period of the infection to be 13 days....

Ecological surveys to assess the presence of infected bats in that cave are ongoing (P. Rollin, pers. comm.).

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Marburg and Ebola viruses can cause large hemorrhagic fever (HF) outbreaks with high case fatality (80–90%) in human and great apes. Identification of the natural reservoir of these viruses is one of the most important topics in this field and a fundamental key to understanding their natural history. Despite the discovery of this virus family almost 40 years ago, the search for the natural reservoir of these lethal pathogens remains an enigma despite numerous ecological studies. Here, we report the discovery of Marburg virus in a common species of fruit bat (Rousettus aegyptiacus) in Gabon as shown by finding virus-specific RNA and IgG antibody in individual bats. These Marburg virus positive bats represent the first naturally infected non-primate animals identified. Furthermore, this is the first report of Marburg virus being present in this area of Africa, thus extending the known range of the virus. These data imply that more areas are at risk for MHF outbreaks than previously realized and correspond well with a recently published report in which three species of fruit bats were demonstrated to be likely reservoirs for Ebola virus.

This NCI document refers to John Landon, Chief scientist at Litton Bionetics overseeing the experiment. Notice that at least half of the Rhabdo virus simian-infected monkeys died or were transferred. The ones that lived were transferred to the vaccine production labs for vaccine production.

[MARBURG OUTBREAK]


This is how the first Marburg virus outbreaks occurred. Since that time, every single Marburg virus outbreak, as well as Ebola virus outbreak, has either been associated with a bioweapons lab accident, or an intentional release for terrorism's objectives: political or financial gain.

But not according to America's leading Outbreak journalist, Laurie Garrett. In her bestseller, "The Coming Plague," she neglects Litton's links and dismisses the CIA biological weapons contributions to these outbreaks as though she too were on the Rockefeller's payroll.

[EMERGING VIRUSES: AIDS & EBOLA: NATURE, ACCIDENT OR INTENTIONAL? BY LEONARD G. HOROWITZ]


It should be noted that these unnaturally evolved, man-made viruses are far less genetically stable. They are more fragile. They mutate more rapidly than naturally evolved viruses. That's why when the second Marburg virus outbreak occurred in the southern part of Uganda in 1975, many scientists suspected foul play by the CIA since the genetic sequence of the 1975 strain was essentially identical to the 1968 strain. The only explanation for this fact remains: refrigeration.

Year(s) / Country / Apparent or suspected origin / Reported number of human cases / Reported number (%) of deaths among cases / Situation

1975 / Johannesburg, South Africa / Zimbabwe 3 / 1 (33%) / A man with a recent travel history to Zimbabwe was admitted to hospital in South Africa. Infection spread from the man to his traveling companion and a nurse at the hospital. The man died, but both women were given vigorous supportive treatment and eventually recovered.

[THE FILMS OF STEVEN SEAGAL]


From my perspective, the least trustworthy bioterrorist in Hollywood is CIA operative Steven Seagal. This propagandist, and egomaniacal opportunist, produced the movie "The Patriot" at my expense, merging "Emerging Viruses, AIDS & Ebola" and my third best-seller, "Healing Codes for the Biological Apocalypse" into one screenplay.

[THE LAST CANADIAN, BY WILLIAM C. HEINE]


Instead of professionally crediting me, Seagal falsely credited "The Last Canadian," for his information. Seagal boasts of his CIA alliances. In "The Patriot," he spun my character together with an admitted CIA operative named "Larry Wayne Harris," who I exposed in the late 1990s as a bioterrorist threatening the public's health. Harris was later arrested for acquiring anthrax spores.

[DECEMBER 7: SUNDAY]


[HOLLYWOODISM, HALPERN/JACOBOVICHI] Everything changed on December the 7th, 1941, with the attack on the U.S. Navy at Pearl Harbor by Hitler's Japanese allies. Now, instead of telling Hollywood to keep quiet, the U.S. Government began pushing them to fulfill their duty, and make patriotic war movies.

[Government Narrator] The motion picture industry today is supplying without charge all of its newest and best feature films to the U.S. War Department Overseas Film Division.

[Prof. Les Friedman, Author/Historian] And movies were a tremendous propagandistic tool during this time. They set up camps for the soldiers to come back in where movies were shown 24 hours a day, because that impressed the soldiers with what they were fighting for.

[Narrator] It was the beginning of an unprecedented alliance between Washington and Hollywood. While 6 million Jews died in Europe, their kinsmen in Hollywood were churning out patriotic movies to help galvanize the allies to defeat Hitler.

You're a grand old flag,
You're a high flying flag
And forever in peace may you wave.
You're the emblem of
The land I love.
The home of the free and the brave.
Every heart beats true
under Red, White and Blue,
Where there's never a boast or brag.
But should auld acquaintance be forgot ...


[HEARING ON COMMUNISM IN HOLLYWOOD, BY ED HERLIHY]


[Ed Herlihy, Hearing on Communism in Hollywood] Calling the House Un-American Activities Committee to order, Chairman J. Parnell Thomas of New Jersey opens an inquiry into possible Communist penetration of the Hollywood Film Industry. The Committee is seeking to determine if Red party members have reached the screen with subversive propaganda.

[Narrator] To the Moguls' surprise, powerful men in Washington saw Hollywood's patriotism as nothing more than thinly disguised communism. Now, at the height of their success, the Hollywood Jews watched their dream fall apart.

[John Howard Lawson] The question of communism is in no way related to this inquiry, which is an attempt to get control of the screen and to invade the basic rights of American citizens in all fields.

[Rep. John R. McDowell] Now, I must object.

[Stripling] Mr. Chairman.

[Chairman J. Parnell Thomas] [Pounding the gavel.]

[John Howard Lawson] The question here relates not only to the question of my membership in any political organization, but this committee is attempting to establish the right --

[Chairman J. Parnell Thomas] [Pounding the gavel.]

[John Howard Lawson] -- which has been historically denied to any committee of this sort, to invade the rights and privileges and immunity of American citizens, whether they be Protestant, or Methodist, or Jewish, or Catholic, whether they be Republicans or Democrats or anything else.

[Chairman J. Parnell Thomas] [Pounding the gavel] Mr. Lawson, just quiet down again. Mr. Lawson, the most pertinent question that we can ask is whether or not you have ever been a member of the Communist Party. Now, do you care to answer that question?

[John Howard Lawson] You are using the old technique which was used in Hitler's Germany in order to create a scare here.

[Stripling] Mr. Chairman, the witness is not answering the question.

[Chairman J. Parnell Thomas] [Pounding the gavel] We are going to get the answer to that question if we have to stay here for a week. Are you a member of the Communist Party, or have you ever been a member of the Communist Party?

[John Howard Lawson] I am framing my answer in the only way in which any American citizen frames his answer to a question which absolutely invades his rights.

[Chairman J. Parnell Thomas] Then you refuse to answer that question; is that correct?

[John Howard Lawson] I have told you that I will offer my beliefs, affiliations, and everything else to the American public, and they all know where I stand --

[Chairman J. Parnell Thomas] [Pounding the gavel Excuse the witness­

[John Howard Lawson] -- as they do from what I have written.

[Chairman J. Parnell Thomas] [Pounding the gavel] Stand away from the stand.

[John Howard Lawson] I have written Americanism for many years, and I shall continue to fight for the Bill of Rights, which you are trying to destroy.

[Chairman J. Parnell Thomas] [Pounding the gavel] Officers, take this man away from the stand.

[Applause and boos.]

[Chairman J. Parnell Thomas] [Pounding the gavel] There will be no demonstrations. No demonstrations, for or against. Everyone will please be seated.

[Narrator] To appease HUAC, the Moguls instituted a blacklist of studio talent. Years before, they had fled European anti-semitism, but now in America, they became collaborators, helping anti-semites rid Hollywood of Jewish intellectuals. In effect, they had surrendered control of the industry.



The Moguls are gone, but their vision survives. The America of Edison and Rankin has given way to an alien ideology. It isn't the communism or Judaism that the gentile elite once feared. It's "Americanism" as defined by Hollywood. The icons endure. The little guy fighting the odds. The pogrom imagery. The desperate desire to survive. And the various races assimilating to create the ultimate happy ending.

[Rabbi] [Inaudible] Ha-shem, Elohim.

[Gentile] I'm not Jewish.

[Rabbi] Nobody's perfect.

[INDEPENDENCE DAY, TWENTIETH CENTURY FOX]


[Narrator] A white, middle-classed president, articulating the Jewish experience writ large. A new global religion: Hollywoodism.

[-- America in the Third World: Strategic Alternatives and Military Implications, by Steven Metz
The key to a positive future in the Third World would be the rise and rapid spread of an alternative value framework and politico-economic system stressing population control, ecological sanity, intergroup cooperation, and deference to authority. Because of the extent of change needed and the speed with which it must take place, such a new system would probably have to take the form of a unifying religion, either a totally new one or a mutation from an existing one. Only a religion can generate the transformative power needed to change the course of the Third World's future.]


[President Thomas Whitmore] Perhaps it's fate that today is the Fourth of July, and you will once again be fighting for our freedom. Not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution, but from annihilation. We are fighting for our right to live. To exist.

[-- Triumph of the Will, directed by Leni Riefenstahl
[Adolf Hitler] A year ago ...
we met for the first time on this field,
the first general review of political leaders ...
of the National Socialist Party.
200,000 men have assembled here.
They are not here at the summons of their hearts alone ...
but also at the summons of their loyalty.
It was the great calamity of our people that drove us to the struggle ...
brought us together ...
and left us greater.
Those who do not understand ...
have not experienced the same calamities among their people.
These things appear enigmatic and mysterious ...
that hundreds of thousands would be led to assemble ...
amidst calamity and passion.
Others cannot understand ...
that this is not an order of the State!
They are deceiving themselves!
The State does not order us!
We order the State!
The State did not create us!
Rather we created our own State!
No, the movement lives ...
and it is grounded hard and fast.
And as long as one of us can draw a breath ...
he will give his strengths to the movement ...
just as it was in yesteryear.
Then drum will join drum ...
flag will join flag ...
group will join group. Gau to Gau ...
and after that, this earlier divided people ...
will follow these sacred columns of the Nation.
It would be an outrage if we were to lose ...
what we have fought for ...
with so much labor, so much worry ...
so much sacrifice, and so many privations.
One cannot live faithfully and give up ...
what has given meaning and purpose to one's entire life.
That would not be so ...
if it were not a cardinal command.
And no earthly power gave us that command.
For the God, our God, who created our people, gave us that command!
So it is our vow this evening ...
that each hour, on every day ...
to think only of Germany of the People and Reich ...
and of our German nation!
To the German people! Hail Victory! Hail Victory!


[Man] There was a "Hollywoodism" then; there's a "Hollywoodism" today. I would go further and say, it is what is the ruling ideology of our culture. Hollywood culture is the dominant culture. It is the fantasy structure that we're all living inside.

[Lady singing] God bless America, land that I love
Stand beside her, and guide her
Through the night with a light from above
From the mountains, to the prairies
To the oceans, white with foam|
God bless America, my home sweet home
God bless America, my home sweet home

[Dorothy] Oh, Auntie Em, there's no place like home!

[HOLLYWOODLAND]


[HOLLYWOODISM]


[John Wayne] [Toasting his glass] L'chaim.

[-- Leaves of Grass, by Walt Whitman
Americanos! conquerors! marches humanitarian!
Foremost! century marches! Libertad! masses!
For you a programme of chants.
Chants of the prairies,
Chants of the long-running Mississippi, and down to the Mexican sea,
Chants of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Wisconsin and Minnesota,
Chants going forth from the centre from Kansas, and thence equidistant,
Shooting in pulses of fire ceaseless to vivify all....
I too, following many and follow'd by many, inaugurate a religion, I descend into the arena,
(It may be I am destin'd to utter the loudest cries there, the winner's pealing shouts,
Who knows? they may rise from me yet, and soar above every thing.)]


[Dr. Leonard George Horowitz] With this background, you can be more discerning about the propaganda you receive from Hollywood.

[HHS Narrator] This program has been brought to you by the United States Department of Health and Human Services. You're watching HHS, the Health and Human Services network.

[Man] If a natural disaster happened and we were outside the home, we would probably all meet, all say, around the grocery store, you know.

[Woman] We would all meet at a bus stop. That is our meeting place.

[Boy 1] Well, we'll probably just meet out in front of the house.

[Boy 2] Uh, we'd probably meet at our neighbor's house.

[Boy 1] If you have no plan, then you can just plan to do what happens.

[IS YOUR PLAN ANY BETTER?
MAKE SURE YOUR FAMILY HAS A PLAN IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY.
READY.GOV]


[HHS Narrator] Come to a place that's new and unique. A place of health, well-being, and preparedness, where connection leads to inspiration and empowerment. Come to HHS, the Health and Human Services Network, a 24/7 commercial-free resource for high-quality health and emergency preparedness information from the world's leading experts whenever and wherever it's needed: at home, at work, on the air, and on the web. HHS, the Health and Human Services Network.

[FOREIGN AFFAIRS, NOVEMBER/DECEMBER 2002: THE FUTURE OF AIDS: GRIM TOLL IN RUSSIA, CHINA, AND INDIA, BY NICHOLAS EBERSTADT]


[Dr. Leonard George Horowitz] So, if the goal is to reduce excess population, as Foreign Affairs Journal advertisement says, we need more wars, including our government's war on terrorism! We need to inject more people, especially Black people with infectious diseases.

[WHY WE NEED A SMALLER U.S. POPULATION, AND HOW WE CAN ACHIEVE IT. A MESSAGE FROM NEGATIVE POPULATION GROWTH, INC.]




This is why an image of a needle inserted into a vial of vaccine is said to be synonymous with preparedness and the positive virtues of inspiration and empowerment. Why they show flu vaccine vials rolling off the assembly line and equate the vaccine as delivering "high quality health." Why they plug CIA agents and so-called "health experts" like Dr. Anthony Fauci. Why they say the HHS will be there for you in an actual emergency, just like they were there following Hurricane Katrina. Why they need to reinforce, reiterate and convince you that they are an accurate and reliable resource, when it is precisely that which they are not. Why they show life's riskiest profiteering in genetic engineering and biotechnology as a "trusted partner in good health." And why they inject a happy Black woman for especially emergency preparedness and beckon you to come to their paradise.

In conclusion, the new unprecedented risks we now face as a nation, and world, bring us to the brink of annihilation. This prognosis includes possible extinction. The motives underlying our own destruction include greed, ignorance, generalized fear, and malice against other nations and people as shown in this persuasive propaganda.

As this program ends, I pray you are better able to make choices consistent with accurate intelligence and wisdom. Take Dr. Cono's advice: study the government propaganda on their information sites recalling what you have learned here. Each of us needs to make a critical choice. Either we awaken to the truth that shall set us free, or dismiss the truth and increase our risk of dying early.

It was once said that ignorance is bliss. Consider carefully who might benefit from your ignorance, and who might be harmed.

THE END.

[Music] Now come-on all you dumbed down men
that son-of-a-Bush needs your help again
Got us all in a terrorist jam
when daddy sent chemicals off to old Saddam
So don’t roll up your sleeves for any shots in your arm,
they don’t tell you that they're doing you harm.
And it’s one, two, three what are we fighting for?
Don’t tell me I don’t give a damn, next stop is old Baghdad.
And it’s five, six, seven open up the pearly gates,
well we’ve got no minds to question why, whoopee we’re all gonna die.
Now prepare yourselves generals for the big blast,
India and Pakistan are heating up fast,
Why you should go out and kill Afghans is
‘cause the only good Taliban is one that’s dead.
They say global peace can only be won
when they blast all to Kingdom Come.
And it’s one, two, three what are we fighting for?
The clueless just don’t give a damn, where the hell is Pakistan?
And it’s five, six, seven open up the pearly gates,
well with Prozac minds we don’t care to know why, whoopee we’re all gonna die.
Well come on Wall Street don’t be slow,
why man this is war, so go . . . go . . . go . . .
There’s plenty of big fortunes to be made
supplying the Chinese with the tools of the trade,
Just hope and pray that if they start the bombing,
they’ll drop em on Osama bin Laden.
And it’s one, two, three what are we fighting for?
The clueless just don’t give a damn, wag the dog at old Saddam.
And it’s five, six, seven open up the pearly gates,
well we’ve got no minds to question why, whoopee we’re all gonna die.
So come on mothers throughout the land, pack your boys off to old Baghdad.
Come on father, don’t hesitate, send you little girls too before their wedding day,
Be the first ones on the block to have your kids come home in a box.
And it’s one, two, three what are we fighting for,
the clueless just don’t give a damn, about the oil through Afghanistan.
And it’s five, six, seven open up the pearly gates,
well the Rockefellers say the population’s too high and half of us need to die.
So come-on all you dumbed down men that son-of-a-Bush needs your help again.
Got us all in a terrorist jam ousting daddy’s partner old Saddam.
So don’t roll up your sleeves for any shots in your arm, it’s smarter to stay on the farm.

DON’T YOU KNOW ITS A SCAM!”
