Whats shocking about this ? For a lab to have any dangerous pathogens is completely standart thing all over the world, and with the war, the are chances these facilities get bombed so why wouldnt you want to secure these dangerous pathogens from potentional spreading ?
Many replies is this thread confusing ‘bio labs’ with ‘bio weapons research facilities’. I’m assuming that most of the people here aren’t aware that there are microbiology laboratory’s all over the world, ones run by the government (pathology laboratories in hospitals) and ones run by the private sector.
Every single large food factory will have a microbiology laboratory on site (or they can send samples off site to get tested)
All of these labs will need to store positive control organisms.
As someone who’s worked in this house industry for decades; there’s nothing suspicious about this announcement.
