The White House has ordered federally funded labs working with infectious agents to conduct an immediate inventory of the pathogens in their labs and review their safety and security protocols, according to a memo released on Thursday.
The order follows a trio of high-profile mishaps at federal labs in recent months, including the mishandling of anthrax and bird flu by researchers at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta and the discovery of decades-old samples of smallpox in a U.S. Food and Drug Administration lab on the campus of the National Institutes of Health in Bethesda, Maryland.
The memo, dated Aug. 19, was sent by the National Security Council and Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) to all federal agencies that conduct life-sciences research. A notice, which links to the memo, was posted on the OSTP website on Thursday. (here)

Er, this is actually good. The Food and Drug Administration had smallpox that they probably never should have even had. They turned it over to the CDC.
Ebola has been in our labs for a long time.
Here it comes....
Something is missing. Time for more panic.
Jet to make sure that the Beand X Ebola cannot be traced back to Project Blue.
Beand = Brand
Now King Obama wants to infect us with diseases !!!!!
He wants a handy treasure map to give to his pals from abroad.
I saw one behind a teleprompter.
Oh oh oh....
Is that counting the residents of the White House and Number One Observatory Circle?
Whitewash.
Proper protocol would be to call for an ‘audit’, to include accounting for ALL specimens shipped elsewhere for, say, the past 5 years and to account for those specimens as well.
The fact that they, 1. Chose the ‘not audit’ whitewash and, 2. To suggest handling is SO sloppy at US labs, violating even the most basic handling & storage protocols that they need to order ‘an inventory’...
...should absolutely frighten the average American.
