FOI Request - Purification of Chickenpox Virus
Request 101003217115
Description of Requested Records:
All studies and /or reports from anywhere in the world describing the purification of the alleged ''chickenpox virus'' (aka ''varicella zoster virus'', "human herpesvirus 3" and "human alphaherpesvirus 3") directly from a sample taken from a diseased human, where the patient sample was not first combined with any other source of genetic material (i.e. monkey kidney cells aka Vero cells; fetal bovine serum).
Clarification of Request
Please note I am not requesting studies/reports where researchers failed to purify the suspected ''virus'' and instead:
* cultured something, and/or
* performed an amplification test (i.e. PCR), and/or
* fabricated a ''genome'' from millions of sequences (allegedly) detected in an impure substance, and/or
* produced electron microscopy images of unpurified things.
