Report says feds sold lab equipment posing bioterrorism risk
Original: Feds sold lab equipment that exposed US to 'severe bioterrorism threat'
A new report says federal agencies sold off laboratory equipment in a way that exposed the United States to what it calls a severe bioterrorism threat. The findings, covered by CIDRAP, raise questions about oversight of surplus lab gear that could be misused. The report is drawing attention on discussion forums as readers debate how such a security lapse could happen and what fixes are needed.
Why now: A fresh report alleges a serious federal security lapse involving lab equipment sales, prompting discussion of bioterrorism risk.
