How the fuck does one of the most prestigious high security virology labs in the world misplace thousands of vials of a deadly pathogen?

@asteris no value, but they bloody well better find out what happened. -
@AngelaLoRosso no value doesn't compute, given quantity, security measures. There's an angle here, and a precedent now. -
@asteris also they say inert. Why keep a virus if it has no value. Agree someone is telling psemata. -
@AngelaLoRosso at any rate, I would appreciate a pointer to a timeline of similar thefts/losses, if anyone's keeping track -
@asteris houston, Texas and Winnipeg. Stories from 2009 till 2013. Would you like links? Ebola, polio and a brain virus. -
@AngelaLoRosso um, sure, but I was looking for a timeline of sorts. Pretty sure there were more than 3 incidents -
@asteris okay let me still search further. - 3 more replies

Serious question: is anyone chronicling incidents of loss/theft of pathogens held in storage? Several worrying incidents in the last decade

In Greece, disposal of biological contaminants complicated by crisis affecting health sector. Tales of body parts etc. dumped in landfills
