Mycoplasma – They are not new. They were discovered over 100 years ago and evolved from bacteria. The “garden variety” mycoplasma is not usually associated with severe diseases.
However, sometime over the past 30 years, the organism has been altered to become more lethal. The Mycoplasmas found by the Nicolson’s, in their lab, contain unusual gene sequences that were probably inserted into the Mycoplasma by a specific laboratory procedure. This discovery has led them to conclude that the new forms of mycoplasma were specifically engineered for germ warfare!
