Modified bacteria targets varroa

[Bee Bumble]

Quite so !

Rest assured...
to increase virus DNA.... the Bio Security was exacting!!

You mean like in the Wuhan level 4 biohazard lab?

ooops.

 

[For want of a better word]

Bio security for bacterial plasmid transformation in any lab is NOT exacting. Apart from common sense and incineration/autoclaving of waste the strains of E.coli used are all genetically crippled and cannot live outside of a laboratory as they require specialised media.
If you want exacting bio security go work for the Institute for Animal Health in Pirbright as I did....Working with FMD, Rabies, SVD, Blue-tongue and many other infectious animal viruses. I won't go into details but you end up having 4-5 showers per day as you moved between building (all under negative pressure). Citric acid spray downs as you moved into and out of any animal units etc etc.

Was that the facility that managed to let Foot and Mouth out some time back?

Yes it was. Well remembered. Not a good example of exacting bio security.

I think you mean well googled
I think one minor incident in their entire history working with some of the most infectious animal viruses in the world suggests how effective their bio-security really is.
Look at the coronavirus "snake" flu for an example of poor bio security and shutting the door after the horse has......
