Why Do Pathogen Researchers Face Less Scrutiny Than Nuclear Scientists?
Lasrick writes "Derrin Culp of the National Center for Disease Preparedness explores the different levels of scrutiny that scientists in microbiology undergo, when compared to those who work in the nuclear weapons field. His complaint is that, even though America's most notorious biosecurity breach — the 2001 anthrax mailings — was the work of an insider, expert panels have concluded that there is no need for intrusive monitoring of microbiologists engaged in unclassified research."
It's because no biological weapon could ever be as effective as a chemical one. You want something to worry about? Think about all of the millions of gallons of hydrofluoric acid used every day in glass etching. That is dangerous. Not some little bug that takes four days to incubate and can be eradicated with antibiotics and ultraviolet light.
Bio questions? Ask me to start a Q&A journal. Computer analogies available for most topics!
...is a fucking nigger and a communist therefore they won't ever speak against him. You don't want to be seen as a 'racist' after all as that's a fate worse than any other. The whole global government, big brother, gun control, fuck the Constitution, import millions upon millions of third worlders and wetbacks, ban 'hate speech', DMCA, etc. is the work of the 'progressives'. Progressives belong in mass graves. END OF STORY.
