3. Glanders, with a particular fascination forL
"organisms that voraciously devour the brain"

18. Disturbing History Lesson
I looked at the history of Plum Island & the Kansas University project, it's difficult to separate myth from reality, but given Murphy & Sod's Law, human stupidity will lead to more lab leaks even if military maniacs do not unleash their vile weapons
