Which gives me very little credentials in an academic sense.
But has absolutely given me plenty of time to think about the use of biological weapons, warfare, the strategy and risks associated with different release mechanisms.
And although a mass vaccination strategy is an unusual way to deploy a weapon.
Strategically it makes the most sense without risking exposure to yourself or your allies.
Many think of poisons as being acute and immediate.
But history shows there are a number of slow killers out there primarily in the realm of genotoxic, carcinogenic, mutagenic substances.
And many would think that seems bizarre why do it slow when you could do it faster?
A quick poison would get noticed very quickly. People start dying. Survivors run for the hills. And so you end up with a big clean up job.
Where as a slow kill operation would be more manageable as long as you can control the spread of information and messaging.
It also isn't always necessary to kill an enemy force. Often wounding or crippling a force is even more advantageous.
When the population begins to develop long COVID. Crippling fatigue, cancers, persistent sickness.
It is going to be very difficult to sustain roads, vehicles, fuel, housing, food, water systems and thus collapse it will.
We in the developed world often feel immune to these hostilities.
But again, strategically we had to be reduced first.
As we have the greatest ability to organise ourselves to resist.
And also per capita use the greatest number of resources.

Good luck survivors.
The next decade is going to be... Difficult.

An excellent summary! Thank you for that.
