Interesting toxin. It appears to take months to have an effect. Not a good weapon, but may have been used in assassinations.

I’m mortally terrified of di-hydrogen monoxide.

It’s one of the largest killers known to mankind.

Maybe he can get a job with Dr Fauci. They seem to have a lot in common.

No mention of his name.

Considering the source something tells me that they are not being as forthcoming as they would be if he had a Trump sticker on his dorm door.

“…after she got just one to two drops on her hand while wearing gloves.“

Those were not good gloves…

The student was not authorized to be working with the compound and it was not part of his research, according to school officials.

Let me guess. He has a scruffy little beard and thinks communism is cool.

“unidentified grad student”

Translation: Foreigner, probably from the Third World.

Odd that the article makes no mention of WHY the student was making this deadly toxin.

Did he have an interest in poisons? Attention seeker? Anyone else involved? Made it by accident while trying to do something else? Have the police searched his social media, etc. for a mass casualty plot or religio-political obsessions?

“Incurious journalist” ought to be an oxymoron, but evidently it is not.

“’We are also able to disclose, with the student’s permission’,”

It’s one of the deadliest chemicals known to man, and law enforcement investigating it GAS about a student’s PERMISSION?
