GSK dumps live polio virus into Belgian rivers used for swimming and fishing
(NaturalNews) Pharmaceutical giant GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) dumped 45
liters (12 gallons) of live, concentrated polio virus into a Belgian
river on September 2, according to a press release by the country's
Federal Public Service Health, Food Chain Safety and Environment's
Scientific Institute of Public Health (WIV-ISP).
Poliomyelitis,
more commonly known simply as "polio," is a viral disease that is
typically transmitted between people via the fecal-oral pathway. In 90
percent of cases, the disease produces no noticeable symptoms. In about 1
percent of cases, the virus spreads into the nervous system and
preferentially destroys motor neurons in the spinal cord, brain stem and
the brain's motor cortex. This produces the paralysis characteristic of
the disease.
