Re: Cimbuřino kázání ke koronaviru

Okolíku ta laboratoř ve Wuhanu je level-4 (BSL-4). Odborníci se domnívají, že v Číně představuje riziko. Např. Japoncům trvalo desetiletí než se na tu úroveň dostali. A mimochodem SARS už Číňanům unikl z laborky v Pekingu několikrát.

"BSL-4 is the highest level of biocontainment: its criteria include filtering air and treating water and waste before they leave the laboratory, and stipulating that researchers change clothes and shower before and after using lab facilities. Such labs are often controversial. The first BSL-4 lab in Japan was built in 1981, but operated with lower-risk pathogens until 2015, when safety concerns were finally overcome."

"But worries surround the Chinese lab, too. The SARS virus has escaped from high-level containment facilities in Beijing multiple times, notes Richard Ebright, a molecular biologist at Rutgers University in Piscataway, New Jersey. "
