Thanks for your letter to Vance and staff, Turfseer. In DC, isolation means shunning and attacking someone on the outs. They may not understand your message, but good effort.

Tiny issue: Adjuvants are poisonous additives in vaccination shots to rouse "immune system cells" (that do not exist as such) to attack and dispatch the vaccine invader. Maybe the word has relevance to isolating and testing viruses that I don't understand, and if so, I apologize. But again, I believe adjuvants are not connected to the stupid cell culturing ritual that as you know has been falsified as a method of identifying "circumstantial evidence" of viral presence.

Here is an inspiring speech chanted in unison by contemporary devotees of post modern superstition...I mean science. Hands and arms raised reverently toward the sky, all recite as they lower them: wooo ha ahlo, woo ha ahlo, woo ha ahlo...we are hollow...hollow...hollow...Woo Ha Ahlo (raised hands fall gently toward Earth, inflection falling with hands) Woo Ha ahlo...We just Follow....Follow...Follow... I'd provide a melody backdrop, but melody is modern, not post modern like virology...it's all recited in sing-song and in unison.

We really must follow The Science.

Thanks, Rider. That chant was oddly haunting—like something from a ritual held in the breakroom of the CDC.

You're right about the standard definition of adjuvants—they’re typically referenced in the context of vaccines, as chemical irritants designed to provoke an “immune response” (whatever that’s now supposed to mean). In Protocol Override, I used the term a bit more broadly and loosely—as a catch-all for the toxic additives (like antibiotics and fetal bovine serum) dumped into cell cultures to conjure the illusion of a “cytopathic effect.” Technically, they’re not labeled adjuvants in that lab context, but functionally they serve a similar purpose: biochemical stagecraft to induce a desired reaction.

So yes, a fair point on semantics—and I appreciate the sharp eye.

And as for “isolation” in DC—yes, I now see the irony. In Washington, isolation doesn’t mean separating a virus from soup—it means disappearing the heretic.

We’ll see if they respond… or if I’ve just entered the political petri dish myself.
