(NaturalNews) The deliberate manufacture by governments of deadly biological weapons containing diseases like smallpox and plague is nothing new. But the threat of these agents being used as weapons of war in today's world is escalating, says a former Soviet scientist, who told PBS's
Frontline that vaccines are no match for the advanced, genetically modified (GM) "bioweapons" that will most likely be used against civilian populations in the near future.
During an interview, Dr. Kanatjan Alibekov explained the history of biological weapons procurement in Soviet Russia, of which he was a part from 1988 to 1992. Having since committed himself to furthering American interests, Dr. Alibekov has apparently renounced his former Soviet ties and spilled the beans about what the Russian government, and presumably also the American government, has been up to on the biological weapons front.
Though he claims that Russia's biological weapons programs were shuttered back in the 1980s, Dr. Alibekov maintains that such programs could be up and running again in a matter of months. And with the advanced technologies that now exist, drugs and vaccines, he says, simply aren't enough to provide adequate protection.
"Until recently, we hadn't seen anything with applying chemical weapons, but we've seen it recently," stated Dr. Alibekov. "Now we can say, if we follow this logic, biological agents, biological weapons could be used in the future. In my opinion, that's not a matter of if; that's a matter of when."
Focus should be on boosting natural immunity, not creating more vaccines
Recognizing the inherent failure in relying on vaccines to provide some kind of ultimate protection against disease and possible biological weapons attack, Dr. Alibekov says governments need to focus on novel ways to boost natural, non-specific immunity. Our bodies are equipped, he points out, to naturally defend against disease, and more needs to be done to facilitate this activity.
"We need to start thinking [about] using some different ways" to protect ourselves, added Dr. Alibekov. "If we are able to boost our
immune system, non-specific immune system, that's the most appropriate and the only way to develop protection. ... [V]accines are not a magic bullet."
Dr. Alibekov admits vaccinations can lead to death
At the same time, vaccines come with possible risks and side effects. Since the number of individual agents used in biological weapons averages between 50 and 70, with some containing as many as 100, it would be logistically impossible to vaccinate against every single one of these, not to mention overtly dangerous.
"If you vaccinate simultaneously against five, six, seven or ten diseases, [a] person could die just after such huge amount of vaccination," warned Dr. Alibekov.
The solution? Avoid focusing so much on
vaccines and instead look for new ways to help the body do what it was inherently designed to do on its own: protect itself against disease. By targeting non-specific immunity through supplementation with "superfoods," for example, entire populations can gain protection without the need for drugs or vaccines.
"In many cases, [there is] no necessity to develop vaccines," said Dr. Alibekov. "We [can't] forget that our bodies have so-called non-specific [immunity]. If we are able to develop preparations to boost our non-specific immune system, it would be helpful to develop so-called pre-exposure, post-exposure preparations."
This is true not only for hypothetical biological attacks in the future, but also for immediate threats such as Ebola, which can be avoided by taking certain precautionary and preparedness steps.
