It only takes another 911 to release those pathogens into our enviroment and that puts we residents into a HUGE RISK! Why can't this facility exist in a remote area????

It appears that we are all one careless or malevolent worker away from a complete disaster. This series of articles has shown the gaps in safety that happen in spite of their best efforts and everyone paying attention knows the anthrax used in the letter attacks came from Detrick so there is a historical precedent for either case.
