Plane Carrying Viruses Crashes in Canada
AP/Breitbart ^ | October 06, 2005


A cargo plane carrying small amounts of flu virus crashed on railway tracks near Winnipeg's city center Thursday, killing the pilot but missing buildings and vehicles, authorities said.

The research samples of frozen influenza and herpes viruses were destroyed in the crash and ensuing fire along with other freight, Federal Express spokeswoman Karen Cooper said.

Thanks for the plane info, did it burn hot enough to kill the virus samples?

Or had they been removed before shipping and a bomb put in the box?
