Whether they were caused by some direct or deliberate inoculation or not, is the question we have to answer. We wonder whether in fact these are not associated with biological warfare against this country during the hostilities. It's quite coincidental, and a very interesting coincidence, that the height of the infection should occur when the hostilities were at their height. Now you've studied the epidemiology of all these possible agents. Let's start with anthrax.
Anthrax is indigenous in Zimbabwe.
And this coincided with the intensification of the struggle right toward the end, just before independence. You're saying that it is epidemiologically inconceivable that you can have an average of 24 cases a year that then spikes to 10,000 in the next two years. I haven't heard of it. Cholera too is endemic in certain parts of Africa. We've looked at the records right back to the date of occupation and there have never been any outbreaks of cholera until 1975 and that coincided with the introduction of cholera in East Africa.
