VeriChips Cause Cancer!

At the National ID Expo in Kansas City at the beginning of this year, Arkansas Animal Producer's Association President Michael Steenbergen asked,

"What safety studies have been conducted on the chips that are inserted into animals?"

His question was met with total silence.

Did these manufacturers not know, or were they unwilling to admit that research has confirmed that implanted microchips cause cancer?

The Institute of Experimental Pathology at Hannover Medical Schoolin Germany reported:

"An experiment using 4279 CBA/J mice of two generations was carried out to investigate the influence of parental preconceptual exposure to X-ray radiation or to chemical carcinogens.

Microchips were implanted subcutaneously in the dorsolateral back for unique identification of each animal. The animals were kept for lifespan under standard laboratory conditions.

In 36 mice a circumscribed neoplasm occurred in the area of the implanted microchip. Macroscopically, firm, pale white nodules up to 25 mm in diameter with the microchip in its center were found. Macroscopically, soft tissue tumors such as fibrosarcoma and malignant fibrous histiocytoma were detected."

The Toxicology Department of Bayer Corporation in Stillwell, Kansas reported:

"Tumors surrounding implanted microchip animal identification devices were noted in two separate chronic toxicity/oncogenici ty studies using F344 rats. The tumors occurred at a low incidence rate (approximately 1%), but did result in the early sacrifice of most affected animals, due to tumor size and occasional metastases. No sex-related trends were noted."

Even if the incidence of cancer cells surrounding and caused by the Verichip micro-chips occur in only 1% of animals, it still begs the questions:

"Why has the FDA approved the micro-chipping of human beings without serious research into the long term effects of their presence within the body?"

"Why, despite concerns regarding the potential for these microchips to burn the skin, are we still allowing the promotion of Verichips in the media?"

"How much money was exchanged between the FDA and Verichip to ensure such a swift approval for human implantation?"

~Finally, If the micro-chipping of a large percentage of the human population occurs, the 1% becomes increasingly significant in the number of people developing cancer for no purpose other than societal control, and we cannot be sure of that figure in humans because of a lack of research.

So next time you see an article on Verichip finding yet another market for their precious micro-chips, just ask yourself:

"Is it worth the risk on human health, not to mention the implications it has on our civil liberties and privacy?"
