MAF states that BTK occurs naturally in the environment, yes, but not the kind they are spraying!
Bacillus thuringiensis, the "host" is genetically combined with Staphylococcus Aureus (and a number of other variants).

Government public health research statistical figures only compared one spray area to another (West and North shore) Instead of comparing a spray area with a non spray area, deliberatelyconveying misleading figures in order to minimize public concern.

According to patent data - (click here to verify for yourself)
"a larger quantity of a crystal delta-endotoxin with greater pesticidal activity and optionally a larger crystal size as a result of gene amplification or hyperexpression is produced as compared to the corresponding parental strain"

"Integrant" as defined herein is a Bacillus thuringiensis strain containing an *additional DNA segment (generally, a cry gene, antibiotic resistance gene, and plasmid-associated DNA) inserted into the genome of said strain by homologous recombination."
* the additional DNA segment is PE194 - Staphylococcus aureus plasmid

With this kind of data publicly available we cannot believe that our government, the custodian of public protection, or their advisors, were merely remiss in their duty to properly investigate the true nature of this spray and the possible long term effects on the population of New Zealand.

Not only is staph aureus used they also use many other "harmful to humans" bacterial and viral materials, such as anthrax, E-coli, hepatitis, meningitis, ring any bells does it? remember the E-coli and hepatitis scares and the sudden meningitis vaccination program?

Another equally disturbing factor is the duplicity of the medical fraternity. How will they regain public trust when they too had the knowledge of the disasterous effects of this spray and failed to persuade our government to ban its use.
