I heard last night on Coast2Coast that there is a top secret medical lab on the east coast that is trying to manufacture recombinant DNA from H5N1 virus. The idea is to anticipate what the mutating virus will eventually become when it goes pandemic. The goal: to make a good quality anti-virus. The dangers of engaging in these types of experiments are a question that ought to be addressed. What say you?

If it is "Top Secret", then somebody needs to go to prison for divulging the project. I suspect it is more likely simply a project in a high level biohazard lab. If they keep it wrapped up, it shouldn't be a problem. There's lots of virulent pathogens locked up in similar labs.

Funny you should mention that. Our local TV newstation in Little Rock mentioned last night that Arkansas was in the running as a possible sight for a location to build a new $400mm+ bio-terrorism laboratory.
