Last week the FDA announced that it is safe to infect your food with viruses in order to kill bacteria.MIT has also announced that they will be working with the FDA to track emerging diseases,including the bird flu.Since MIT is at the cuting edge of bio-engineering technology,it makes one wonder if this is just a coincidence.MIT's research is funded by the pentagon.

SO HAS BIOENGINEERED MICRO_ORGANISMS BEEN UNLEASHED ON THE PUBLIC SOMEHOW?

Consider this.

It is now possible to engineer micro-organisms as easily as they do electronic circuits.Bacteria and other biological systems can be thought of as nature's nanowires that can be easily grown and manipulated.Theese Micro-organisms can cause havoc commercially in numerous ways, from corrupting computer chips to the more common bacterial problems of the food industry.so is it a coincidence that the FDA has announced that it is safe to infect your food with viruses to kill bacteria?

Fibers associated with Morgellons disease are reported in and on skin lesions. They are generally described by patients as white, but clinicians also report seeing blue, green, red, and black fibers, that fluoresce when viewed under ultraviolet light

Theese Morgellons fibers are similar in nature to bioluminecent circuits used in the field of nanotechnology.

A mix of bacteria-killing viruses can be safely sprayed on cold cuts, hot dogs and sausages to combat common microbes that kill hundreds of people a year, federal health officials said Friday in granting the first-ever approval of viruses as a food additive.

The combination of six viruses is designed to be sprayed on ready-to-eat meat and poultry products, including sliced ham and turkey, said John Vazzana, president and chief executive officer of manufacturer Intralytix Inc.

The viruses are the first to win FDA approval for use as a food additive, said Andrew Zajac, of the regulatory agency's office of food additive safety.

The preparation of bacteriophages - the name is Greek for "bacteria-eater" - attacks only strains of the Listeria bacterium and not human or plant cells, the FDA said.

"As long as it used in accordance with the regulations, we have concluded it's safe," Zajac said. People normally come into contact with phages through food, water and the environment, and they are found in our digestive tracts, the FDA said.

Consumers won't be aware that meat and poultry products have been treated with the spray, Zajac added. The Department of Agriculture will regulate the actual use of the product.

The viruses are grown in a preparation of the very bacteria they kill, and then purified. The FDA had concerns that the virus preparation potentially could contain toxic residues associated with the bacteria. However, testing did not reveal the presence of such residues, which in small quantities likely wouldn't cause health problems anyway, the FDA said.
