GALVESTON — A vial containing a potentially deadly virus has gone missing from a secure biomedical research facility at The University of Texas Medical Branch’s Galveston National Laboratory.
The medical branch made the announcement Saturday afternoon, while stressing that there was no reason to believe there is a threat to the public.

Phew! Thank goodness they're stressed that this vial of deadly virus that's gone missing from the 'secure' bio lab poses no threat to the public. What a relief!

Cue the next lone nut job FF, perhaps.

And they cba telling us what virus it is?

Vial containing Venezuelan virus is missing from University of Texas lab

The Guanarito virus can cause hemorrhagic fever. But officials at the Galveston National Laboratory say there’s no need to panic--it can’t be transmitted from person-to-person.

Venezuelan hemorrhagic fever

Guanarito virus
Venezuelan hemorrhagic fever (VHF) is a zoonotic human illness first identified in 1989. The disease is most prevalent in several rural areas of central Venezuela and is caused by the Guanarito (GTOV) arenavirus belonging to the Arenaviridae family. The short-tailed cane mouse (Zygodontomys brevicauda) is the main host for GTOV [1] which is spread mostly by inhalation of aerosolized droplets of saliva, respiratory secretions, urine, or blood from infected rodents.[2] Person-to-person spread is possible, but uncommon.

Just pack it in Stepp/Gilly, we've had enough of your doom-laden huevos.

Sounds like some sort of mutation of the Spanish flu to me...maybe.
Also interesting that they named it Venezuelan....maybe it is not all that it seems....maybe it's more than a flu virus.... and they needed the vial to prove Chevez was 'killed' by the CIA?.....need my second brew.....woken up to a very weird world this am.

I'll bet that what they're not telling us is that they've mutated the Venezuelan hemorrhagic fever and now wish to see first hand whether they've succeeded in making it spread between humans.

Seems John Wayne has a lot to answer for
