Nor do those look like carbon fibers.
United States Patent 6382526
Specifically, nanofibers of polymer, such as polyacrylonitrile, are spun and collected by using the process and apparatus of this invention. These polyacrylonitrile fibers are heated in air to a temperature of about 200 to about 400° C. under tension to stabilize them for treatment at higher temperature. These stabilized fibers are then converted to carbon fibers by heating to approximately 1700° C. under inert gas. In this carbonization process, all chemical groups, such as HCN, NH3, CO2, N2 and hydrocarbons, are removed.

On a nano scale, combining synthetic and natural materials with RNA/DNA isn't possible. In fact, it's not even possible on a large scale. Living tissue does not like "parts" of ceramic, metal, or other things and will wall them off OR will eat them:
With nanomaterials, we can interact with molecules,” says James Baker, MD, director of the Michigan Nanotechnology Institute for Medicine and Biological Sciences at the University of Michigan. “Their unique capabilities present potential, but also create issues — for instance, they can be absorbed across the skin because they can penetrate and go through pores.
A tiny machine capable of travelling under its own steam has been engineered by Japanese researchers. The fuel used to propel the vehicle - adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the universal power behind cellular activity - is generated on board.
NGJ process was used to produce nanofibers from mesophase pitch, which were subsequently stabilized and carbonized to carbon fibers. The process produces nanofibers at such a high rate that it was necessary to move it out of a laboratory.
RFID keeps getting smaller. On February 13, Hitachi unveiled a tiny, new “powder” type RFID chip measuring 0.05 x 0.05 mm
Two recent studies documented lung damage in animals after they inhaled a type of buckyball called a carbon nanotube. Another showed that nanoparticles can get into the brain if inhaled.
Nano-sized bits are so small that they can penetrate your skin, get into your lungs, and travel through your body unmolested by the immune system
First it was "gray goo," the threat of self-replicating machines populating the planet. Now an environmental think tank is raising the specter of "green goo," where biology is used to create new materials and new artificial life forms.

This article links the virus to autism and cfs, Can someone varify the information in these articles.
Im not in the states and cant tell if the source is legit or not. The article claims the cause is a green monkey virus that were used for polio vacinations.

Man made?
I'm of the opinion that most of our major illnesses running amok these days are man made.

True, to those specific claims I have not heard a word. I was thinking along those lines myself, but...it was because of my ignorance in the medical field and microbiology.
We know it exists, we know about its behavior, and that is about it. We are not certain of its origin, function of its structure, ability to mutate, reactions under all possible conditions, in short we know so little about it that it may open up a new field of study.
For this alone the universities should be keen on picking it up.

I believe they are at least 1000 to 1500 years ahead of the private sector based on their advancement acceleration from 1947.
Nope.
My brother and father both were high ranking officers and both worked in long-range military planning. My brother worked at the Pentagon, and I did get to hear (after the fact) about things he'd been involved in. My husband also works in the defense industry. My son did... and will again after he finishes college and gets his engineering degree.
The window is actually 5-20 years (some of the unusual weapons proposals.)
They contract from the private sector, remember. They actually don't manufacture or have a division of combat scientists. They just take proposals (my husband has had to do those) and buy what they think fits their needs (my brother funded research for the new combat bandages) and negotiate for things they want.
