Topic: Mycoplasma

Riley identifies a biological warfare agent called Mycoplasma incognitus, which she claims was discovered in the blood of sick veterans by Dr. Garth Nicholson at MD Anderson Cancer Center. She describes Nicholson as a highly respected researcher who lost his position after refusing to stop his Gulf War research. She alleges that Nicholson's lab specimens were sabotaged and that he was forced to move his operations to California to continue testing.

Research by Dr. Nicholson and Sally Medley suggests a mycoplasmal biological warfare agent was tested at the Texas Department of Corrections in Huntsville during the 1980s. Inmates were reportedly given experimental flu vaccines intradermally, leading to an outbreak that spread to guards and the local community. Huntsville currently reports an unusually high concentration of multiple sclerosis cases, with 67 cases in a town of 35,000.

In the final minutes, the hosts provide the website address for the American Gulf War Veterans Association and offer information on religious waivers for anthrax vaccinations. Joyce Riley makes a final plea for medical professionals to investigate mycoplasma and the illnesses affecting veterans. Jeff Davis concludes the show by thanking his crew and recommending Mike Hanson's book on Bohemian Grove.

Joyce Riley presents her theory that 75% of Gulf War illness is caused by experimental vaccinations and 25% by exposure to biological and chemical agents. She cites documents suggesting troops were exposed to man-made pathogens and chemical munitions, such as sarin gas, during the conflict. Riley emphasizes that biological agents are particularly dangerous because they can be transmitted from veterans to their families.

The discussion shifts to the rise of fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome in the general population since 1991. Joyce Riley claims that 62% of chronic fatigue patients test positive for the same biological warfare agent found in Gulf War veterans. She argues the disease is communicable and has spread from military personnel to civilians in military towns like Austin and San Antonio.

Joyce Riley details the work of Dr. Garth Nicholson, a former tenured professor at MD Anderson Cancer Center who identified a man-made biological agent called Mycoplasma incognitus. Riley claims Nicholson lost his job and faced harassment after discovering the pathogen in his own daughter and other Gulf War veterans. She notes that only two labs in California currently test for this specific biological warfare agent.
