They named it after him. What they didn't tell you is that he spent the previous 30 years weaponizing ticks for the United States military... and before he died, he sat in front of a camera and told someone the truth. Fort Detrick, Operation Paperclip, Nazi bioweapons scientists, 282,000 ticks released in Virginia, a secret island lab 10 miles from where Lyme disease first exploded, and a government that lied about all of it for 40 years. Congress just ordered an investigation.
