Analysis

Historical misuse of vaccination campaigns for intelligence purposes is being revived, increasing suspicion toward vaccinators.

Epstein discourse coincides with renewed circulation of content about the CIA’s misuse of a fake vaccination campaign in Abbottabad, recently brought back (Feb 1) by the history YouTube channel “All time popular” with an excerpt of a documentary where a former CIA agent tells the story of a fake door-to-door polio vaccination campaign  allegedly used for identifying Bin Landen.  Together, these narratives lower trust thresholds and increase operational risk, particularly in already sensitive regions.
