The culprit caused the Bari port disaster

In the search for anticancer drugs, many famous anticancer drugs began the cause of human salvation not from miraculous effects but from death and disasters. Mustard gas is one of such substances.

Disaster of Bari harbor

This is the biggest catastrophe in Italy in the years 1942-1943. Back then, in the Mediterranean Sea, there were countless ships docking. Thousands of people are still busy working on the harbor. But everyone living in that area did not know that the harbor was hiding a disaster that could happen at any time. It was the ship of the merchant SSJohn E.Harvey. The merchant ship still carries the usual cargo as usual, but besides it is the Yperit poison tank, which is known under the name of mustard gas in quantities of over 1,000 tons. All of them don't know except the two who are Harvey and US President Roosevelt. The President of the United States ordered the storage and filled with hope that he would win the battlefield when he owned the number of weapons.

But before the change was made, all of these weapons and 16 ships were docked there.Explosive weapons and all the mustard poison that flooded Bari Harbor caused a terrible disaster . More than 1,000 people died on the spot, more than 800 people were hospitalized, 628 suffered burns at every level. People do not know what causes death so badly. They went to find the answer and the mystery was discovered.

A classic chemical poison

The answer to the mysterious curtain buried in the rubble is mustard toxic chemicals. In the course of history, it appears that the mustard gas in this world is not from war but in a chemical laboratory, although it was a poison of 20th century warfare.

At that time, Nazi Germany was still very weak in military potential and was being annexed by British and French troops. Rekindled in the beginning of a plot to regain what was lost, wanting to regain its position in the political and military school, Nazi Germany always sought to create a variety of super weapons, the more destructive power the better. to weaken enemy forces.

By many tricks, the Nazis attracted and concentrated a large number of scientists, notably medical and chemists to design chemical and biological weapons. Of course, these scientists do not know the dark conspiracy that Nazi Germany is using their research achievements. Among them are two chemists, Lommel and Steinkopf. They were the two scientists who had publicized the second birth of mustard gas with the world in 1917-1918. It is called Yperit poison because it won the victory for the German army in a city near Ypres, Germany.

Quick mustard gas is a super weapon, a perfect poison, in the words of the military. Because what it causes is too big and too dangerous. Last time the dark pages of mustard gas, people saw a list of corpses, people who were injured by mustard gas were even higher than a pile of test records. From 1914-1918, the number of people killed by mustard gas was 4,086 and the number of injured people was 16,526, higher than all toxic chemicals at that time.

When exposed to mustard or poison Yperit, the victim will be blistering, irritating the eyes, nose, and bronchi, then severe eye pain. The airway was blistering, peeling, suffocating. Painful victims cannot do anything, just groan, lie flat in bed and wait to die.

In the memoirs of the nurse Vera Brittain, after serving Yperit poisoned soldiers for a while, they saw painful images of Yperit. ' I wish those people (poisoned victims) could describe what is happening on their bodies to the world. Regardless of how meaningful the war is and for what purpose, the harm it causes is inadequate. If only they (military dictators) could see their soldiers suffer with mustard. All terrible skin blisters, blind eyes, watery bodies, they could only whisper that the throat seemed to be slowly closed. They know, they're going to die . ' And indeed, after being infected with mustard, after 4-5 weeks, these victims died.

Disaster and medicine

But it is unbelievable that the super-killer, mustard may be the first good anticancer . Perhaps it was like a remorse for what it had destroyed the world. The healing effect was aroused by the dead mud, here, with mustard after the disaster of Bari harbor.

As mentioned above, right after the disaster of Bari harbor, the character who knows best about the cause of death, boss Harvey was killed. So no one knows the cause of the death. Immediately after the disaster, the lieutenant colonel, military doctor Stewart F. Alexander, the Medical Weapons Medical Center's counselor at Allied Force Headquarters was dispatched to investigate the case. Alexander was originally the man who had studied the mustard gas and the exposure to mustard nitrogen. His experience quickly deciphered the mystery in Bari. After the autopsy of 617 people died, he proved mustard was the culprit who caused this disaster.
