Nice Boyle getting nearly pure fiction posted as fact - obviously, he makes no effort to publish where facts are actually checked - the US Biowarfare program was shut down by President Nixon -

from an extensive paper http://www.au.af.mil/au/awc/awcgate/medaspec/Ch-19electrv699.pdf<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.au.af.mil_au_awc_awcgate_medaspec_Ch-2D19electrv699.pdf&d=CwMFaQ&c=8hUWFZcy2Z-Za5rBPlktOQ&r=iioab8BLQ6IJxt-3gLhYzf1aAvTbGVgzPJj9W_0ugn0&m=XXnF2JiDjGjpWdj1mmqfJksobnItgypwFdkFuvWajKE&s=bmp0lUbrjn8-VpJ4VxBT5gc8zpyFTtFcxPeSBgyLD2U&e=> - just the first reference I found when I searched to see if my recollection that President Nixon abolished the program -

When the biological warfare program was established, the United States was fighting World War II on two fronts. After the war ended, the Cold War developed and our security was still threatened. The United States maintained an active offensive biological warfare program until it unilaterally renounced the use of biological weapons in two National Security Memoranda in 1969 and 1970. The United States ratified the Biological Weapons Convention in 1975. Although capabilities of the world’s military forces have changed significantly in the years following the disestablishment of the U.S. biological warfare program—and despite the Biological Weapons Convention—a biological warfare threat still exists; therefore, the United States maintains a program for medical defense against biological warfare agents.
