I guess the next obvious question might be- how do Retraction Watch get their funding?

I think you only need to look at the founders to see what is going on.

I guess it's like "media matters" for the science world.

Wow, that’s dystopian. When medicine gets this politicized, what will we be told to do next? Probably drink “Brawndo” to cure all that ails us...

Interestingly, Jon Cohen, who has written many Team Zoonotic articles for high profile publications, also receives funding from some of the same groups. Became interested in Cohen due to his relentless promotion of zoonosis/proximal origin proponents and was intrigued to see he was key reporter covering the Royal Society of London’s orchestrated rebuttal of the Origins of AIDS meeting in 2000. And I don’t have to tell you which side he was on…

Giggle.

You asked the right question; the answer is just as obvious

During the previous lab-escape epidemic, it was easier because they could simply label Morgellons patients 'delusional', and the technologies were so new that researchers couldn't fathom it being otherwise -- thus nothing to retract.

Fast forward to today, please do an image search of 'Morgellons' when considering Novavax grown in a silk-producing insect.

Bird - do you know what therapeutics might work for this? I have a patient with morgellons. The dermatologist she was referred to diagnosed her with delusional parasitosis and prescribed antipsychotics.

She's in no way psychotic. She has threads coming out of her scalp.

Talented dermatologist. Biopsies and scrapings light up beautifully under florescent microscopes if someone ever needs more solid documentation. Providing this patient with a firm diagnosis and documentation of samples is the right start.

I can't give optimistic feedback about therapy. 15 and 20 years post-infection, X% of patients still have fibers growing under the skin, though in some the course gets more mild with time.

Another reader pointed out this article using Doxycycline: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8643125/

It's trial-and-error experimentation based on what patients report to each other online. Some of this information comes from people working in biotech because they are more familiar with the components (chitin biofilm?) than dermatologists. Strict elimination diet to identify substances that provoke it seems to have been beneficial for some, but research does not exist yet to explain which pathways are involved in these changes. Medium-strength steroid cream used sparingly. Glycerin base is counterproductive.

Thanks that's really helpful. But oh god 15-20 years...

I'm a medical herbalist. We prescribed her a herbal medicine to improve lymphatic drainage, reduce inflammation, modulate her immune system and heal her scalp. She has reported an improvement but i wondered if there's anything else.

Re the dermatologist, that's the standard procedure if anyone turns up with a plastic tub of threads that came out of their skin: refuse to look in the tub and prescribe antipsychotics.

I mean seriously. I attended a hospital seminar given by a dermatologist who told us straight out that people with morgellons are delusional.

I have had Morgellons for many years (since around '97, "coincidentally" (or not so coincidentally) when the chemtrail program started in earnest.

I didn't link it to the chemtrails until on a very heavy spray day I walked outside and one of my arms where I would get the oozing sores literally opened up before my own eyes. I knew then the chemspraying was the cause.

What has helped me most is limiting my exposure. I often stay inside when there's heavy spraying.

I should also say I never had loads of fluorescent fibers coming out of me--nothing like that. I had very small pieces of black fibers or threads ( very tiny). Some of them (yes, I'm afraid so) could move on their own. One time, I pulled one out of my skin only to have it go back in at another location. Another time, one went into one of my nails and I was able to simply cut the nail off and get rid of it that way. When I was really suffering from lots of sores, they would open when taking a bath.

I learned not to fear this condition when I realized that the fibers would try to push themselves to the surface of the skin, which meant my body was doing its best to eliminate them (in other words, my body knew what to do). I still see small bits of the fibers--mainly on my arms (which get the most exposure to the open air; I usually wear long pants). It is just normal for me to see little bits of the fibers, which I--sorry this is getting so graphic :)-- regularly peel off the top layer of my skin.

I think what helped me most overall was going on an all-raw diet (thank you, Dr. Robert Morse!) for several months. It seemed to clean out my body a lot.

I would say it has turned out not to be a big problem in my life now that I understand it. That doesn't mean that the chemtrail spraying is "okay," though. Those doing it are destroying the entire Earth's ecosystem.

Ah, then you have the best flexibility. Herbal treatments are more familiar because, as you say, hospitals had a dismal response so there's not much trial of standard medicines (Mebendazole and Ivermectin were mentioned in 2004.) Patients can try Pao d'arco (tea / paste directly on wounds.)

For your tools and your praxis, be aware that the fibers linger on surfaces and we do not have information about whether they are infectious. Therefore use disposable tools and be diligent about gloves etc. Wipe the surfaces with damp, disposable disinfectant wipes after they leave.

The dermatologist giving that seminar will have embarrassing memories someday. I think of one surgeon last summer strongly announcing that anyone who was vaccinated was incapable of getting or spreading Covid, and therefore no employee testing was merited when symptoms arose.

Thanks that's useful advice.

It sounds like anthelmintics, antifungals and antibacterials need to be added to her treatment. From the brief research I've done morgellons looks like it's related to Lyme.

To be honest i couldn't do worse than the dermatologist she saw at a London hospital. She found it a huge relief just to be listened to and believed.

Well, I think some of these patients might soon be heard. After everything is uncovered in the next year about how many lies we were told, some percentage (not all because we all have firsthand experience how deeply brainwashed this group is) of the doctors should be stopping and re-assessing every patient and their specific maladies. The vaccines will also be causing a wide spectrum of symptoms and illnesses- at first it will hide the true cause, but it will come out.

I think you're right.

Hi Bird, could you please help us out with a link on the lab origins of Morgellons? Can't seem to find a good one on internet search.

Morgellons is strongly related to Lyme. Lyme originated from the bioweapons lab on Plum Island.

See this article about the release of weaponized ticks.

I'm unfortunately not up to date on what has / hasn't been published lately. This is why I recommend doing image searches in this case rather than trying to find clarity in written publications. There was strong research censorship in the past, like we are seeing today.

Expand full comment

OK thanks. Can you just tell me what is the alleged source/cause of Morgellons?

Expand full comment

I don't mean to jump in, but I remember a while back, I read about how a woman with Morgellons noticed her symptoms got a lot worse when she spotted planes in the air near her home, spraying something while flying. She had to avoid going outside during these times. She thought that it either aggravated or caused the issue.

Expand full comment

In 2007 the CDC, the Air Force (because why not), and Kaiser Permanente in the Bay Area did an investigation into Morgellons, recruiting patients to study.

It was after this that 2 things happened:

(1) officially declared a delusion with organized online censorship and persecution of medical providers to the point that organizations were shut down;

(2) gain-of-function research quietly moved overseas.

Related to point 2, current global events.

I wish I could. Research and publications are lacking.

To underline the topic of Arkmedic's post here, censorship - via the same tactics reapplied today -- has prevented science from moving forward, and as a result patients suffer.

Yes, this is by no means incompetence. Act accordingly!

We have now the rare opportunity given by the epic failure of the mRNA and the competence of arkmeeic, jukkyleaks, and other brave scientists, to see the inner workings of the nowadays political medical science. It applies to most of it, not just mRNA. We have to re-evaluate a lot and reset the way we go forward.

I walked away from a 20 year career in medicine on account of the mandates in my state. There was nothing that could convince me to put that poison in my body - from day 1.

There was nothing that could convince me to continue working for a system that bullies it’s employees & that is so clearly corrupted by greed and arrogance.

There was nothing that could convince me that the mask mandates , 6ft social distancing and lockdowns they shoved on us were not complete nonsense & did not have more nefarious purposes (psychological conditioning/ economic slowdown ) .

There was nothing that could convince me that any of what they have done over the last 2.5 is anything short of an act of war on our population.

I knew they were full of BS & if even started a podcast December 2019 (way before I knew any of the Substacks you mention existed) calling out their lies. Some of my earliest episodes highlighted government use of biological weapons on the unsuspecting population, the Biderman Chart of coercion and the Deagal Report 2025. I spoke about MRNA & prion diseases in March 2021 and did a deep dive on monkeyPox back in July 2021 …

What many substacks are now showing with their data is proof of what has been said from the beginning. ‘They’ have unleashed war & destruction on the world population in the form of numerous bioweapons. Many people We tried to warn were not convinced until now.

This is only the beginning. The technology that exists is terrifying.

I act as though I will see the destruction of at least 70% of the population in our country( if I myself even survive) as their main goal is fairly obvious, the damage is only beginning.

These evil bastards can only see up to their immediate career advancement for running a smokescreen for the establishment. Don't they realize they're contributing to our very doom through recklessly supporting these dangerous products! I think things will only spiral out of control with the introduction of the monkeypox vaccines.

I always appreciate the initial reviewers' comments and the discourse before acceptance for publication.

Prof Ya-Fang Mei should release this correspondence, with the referees' names, the editors' names and conflicts, and any supporting documents.

I appreciate that cross-jurisdiction slander and defamation is a difficult and expensive task. I am not hopeful that his final comment is likely.

I'm honestly impressed they gave Mei right-of-reply in the article. I thought of RW as really little more than another node in the typical pharma-funded "debunking" echo-chamber network which spans everything from the Trusted News Initiative MSM + Big Tech leviathans to the Wikipedia canon lawyers. "Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?" Uh nobody. The guardians guard themselves and call it "the scientific method."

Why would it matter whether a publication is "retracted" or not? It is already public, and accessible free of charge. Whoever wants to read it, can freely read it. Whoever is migrating through Kübler-Ross stages, will deny it irrespectively of whether or not it is "retracted"

Because it is important for the upcoming court cases. And they know this. So they are trying to get it removed so that the media and the courts can say "oh that paper was retracted so the claim doesn't hold"
