Deadly disease lab? We want it! We want it!
Categories: Diet & Weight Loss, Reviews & Products
12 states are fighting to have a deadly disease lab facility built on their land. The research center would house killers like anthrax, avian flu, and foot and mouth disease, plus (I'm guessing) a whole bunch of dangerously fun "experiments." This new project is intended to replace a smaller lab at Plum Island, N.Y., where some questionable security practices back in 2001 required investigation. Although the states themselves seem eager to "win" and get the lab, not all the residents in the proposed areas are that excited. And who can blame them? A lab test gone wrong, or even something as simple as an experiment with unpredicted results, could potentially infect the entire surrounding area. No, I'm not thinking I want a deadly disease lab in my area. Thanks, but no thanks.

Personally, I would love this lab to come to my area. But then I'm a biologist who is fascinated by infectious diseases and would LOVE to work there. That's just me.

Yikes!
Good thing there are brave scientists like you, Ayesha, 'cause that stuff scares me to death!
I'm sort of rooting against California winning the battle since that's where I hail from.
