That’s not necessarily good news. The Soviets had a biological weapons dump on an island in the Aral Sea. The idea was since it was on an island, wildlife couldn’t get in there and bring a weaponized pathogen back to the general world. Now it’s not an island. And the bio weapons are still there. And now wildlife can get into the dump, and out again.
Quick, someone call China. Tell them that there’s more Bio-Kooties for them to play with in Wuhan.
I think you got that backwards. Until now, the island wasn’t an island anymore and any land based animal could have accessed the facilities.
Now water based animals may be different.
Besides it looks like Camp Lejeune was sitting on a biohazard dump.
