As if we don’t have enough to worry about. The current regime, zombies and the apocalypse aren’t sufficient?
SARS was a weapons test. So is this.
The creeps can never resist furtively laughing of their victims. Check out the movie “Contagion”, and the producer’s location: Abu Dhabi.

From an ABC news report:
http://abcnews.go.com/Health/galveston-texas-biolab-loses-deadly-guanarito-virus/story?id=18809363#.UVEZgjeU9QI
The Galveston National Laboratory lost one of five vials containing a deadly Venezuelan virus, according to the University of Texas Medical Branch, which owns the $174 million facility designed with the strictest security measures to hold the deadliest viruses in the country.
Like Ebola, the missing Guanarito virus causes hemorrhagic fever, an illness named for “bleeding under the skin, in internal organs or from body orifices like the mouth, eyes, or ears,” according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
“This is clearly an incident that is very discomforting and embarrassing to the University of Texas Medical Center and their national biosecurity lab that they have there,”
“...Fortunately, losing a vial of Guanarito is not as threatening as losing a vial of anthrax”, said Schaffner, a former president of the National Foundation for Infectious Diseases.
When a cell is critically threatened, accelerated genetic recombination (which may include virus proliferation) is just one of a set of events that may occur.
This set of events is called the SOS response, which is known to be triggered by exposure to toxic chemicals or radiation.
Arnold Levine, writing in Fields Virology, provides an example:
When lysogenic bacteria were lysed [split open] from without, no virus was detected. But from time to time a bacterium spontaneously lysed and produced many viruses. The influence of ultraviolet light in inducing the release of these viruses was a key observation that began to outline this curious relation between a virus and its host.
