Congress investigated it. Does anybody know what the findings were?

It would be nothing new.
And wouldn’t surprise me in the least.

I grew up in Michigan and we never had ticks here when I grew up, and we certainly never heard about lymes disease. Now I get bitten by ticks a lot and I might have had Lymes Disease and didn't go to the doctor.

Now I find out there were bird flu lab leaks in the USA.

They cannot even keep infected mice from escaping and you can easily see mice.
Ticks are so much smaller.

No. Now you are being paranoid.
The US has always had ticks and lymes disease has been around a lot longer than the US government.

Birds are extinct. The CIA replaced them all with drones in the 1990s. They spy on us all the time, everywhere. Yes, I know, you sometimes see a dead bird on the street. The last real live birds were cryogenically suspended when the change-over occurred so the CIA could deposit them later on and make people think real birds still exist.

There were always ticks in Michigan.
They used to be rarer than now, but the last 20 to 40 years, ticks have become more abundant in your hemisphere.

Now, why might that be?
Hint: it’s not the CI bloody A.

I live in northern lower Michigan and before the last decade or so there were no ticks here. ZERO We have always had mosquitos, but no ticks at all.

I have lived here almost all of my life. I have been growing cannabis on state land for most of my life so I have spent some time in the woods. So when I tell you there were never ticks here you had better believe it.

8 mice got loose in a lab that carried H5N1 (bird flu) and you don't think ticks could escape from a lab with careless workers in it? If the Pentagon was breeding ticks they need a host for the young ticks and that was probably mice. Where did that mouse go? Oh....I left it open.

Scientists were doing gain of function on bird flu to infect mammals and just by coincidence bird flu infects cows and dogs recently. Now they have a gene vaccine for chickens and cows. There are more chickens than people in the USA.

Big pharma found another cash cow.......and chickens. More profits. $$$$$$$

Maybe gutting the EPA and allowing everyone to dump whatever into the waterways might be a root cause of the problem. Flint Michigan is the canary in the coal mine. Standards have eroded to the point that the negatives are taking over.

You gave have corrupted your water table by unattended tailing dams where nothing is treated but simply dumped on mother nature and you wonder why pests are on the increase. You will not be able to drink the money you've made off destroying nature. But its something else right?

BS Metalbrain.

Of course there were bloody ticks.
You think they just popped off a starship? The CIA introduced them to Michigan to…uh… start red discs on people’s ankles?

Don’t be so paranoid.
We now have hornets where I live. Didn’t have them 10 years ago… and it wasn’t the bloody AIVD that brought them here.

So, even if you were correct about there being no ticks (you are not, you are definately wrong), it still wouldn’t be a CIA plot…

I live in Michigan. I think I would know if they were here when I was younger.
