Sarin + Novichok

Hello poison friends! We are bringing you two nasty nerve agents by the name of Sarin and Novichok. We have talked about nerve agents before but not these two meanies. Lets explore where they came from and their affects on the human body, as well as why they were made in the first place. We also have to go over their history and use in warfare and terrorism. Some of you may recall hearing the names of these too in somewhat recent years (yes, I am delusional enough to still call the 90s recent, let me have this). Sarin was made and used by an already violent Japanese cult in 1994 and 1995 with intent to kill and injure as many as possible. Novichok has its history in espionage and assassination attempts. Thank you to all of our listeners and supporters! Please feel free to leave a comment or send us a DM for any questions, suggestions, or just to say, "hi."
