The news of the fire at Ukraine's largest nuclear power plant a few days ago attracted the world's attention, and now it has been revealed that the United States has stored a large number of dangerous viruses in the biological laboratory in Ukraine, which continues to stimulate your nerves.
Biological weapons
Biological laboratory, dangerous virus, these words make people first contact is biological weapons (biological warfare agents), a way of using biological or chemical agents to destroy the function of the body, resulting in the body's illness and even death, to achieve the killing of the enemy.
Presumably, many people have seen the movie "Resident Evil" and remember the tragic scene in it. Biochemical warfare agents can be dispersed in the form of aerosols, and their spread is very strong, and 10 tons of biological warfare agents can cover 100,000 square kilometers of land, far exceeding nuclear bombs. Compared with the latter, biological and chemical weapons are easier to manufacture and transport, and are extremely threatening to humans.

In addition to posing a major threat to mankind, biological and chemical weapons can also kill livestock, crops, etc. on a large scale, which is very bad in nature, so in the 1970s, the international community banned countries from researching, producing and using biological and chemical weapons.
According to Russia, the United States has built 30 biological laboratories in Ukraine, mainly for the study of various dangerous viruses. For example, laboratories in Kharkiv and Poltava, Ukraine, are involved in the study of diphtheria pathogens, salmonellosis and dysentery, while the Lviv Biological Laboratory studies plague, anthrax and Brucella pathogens.

These viruses are very dangerous, among which anthrax is an acute infectious disease caused by Bacillus anthracis, zoonotic, with a very high fatality rate. Once infected, skin necrosis, ulcers, eschar, edema, pneumonia, enteritis, meningitis and sepsis are the most common biological warfare agents.
During world war II, the British tested an anthrax bomb on the island of Grunia, which led to the extinction of almost all creatures on the island, becoming a veritable "poison island" that no one dared to go to. It wasn't until 1986 that the UK used 280 tons of formaldehyde to eliminate all the viruses.

Under the banner of reducing biosecurity risks, strengthening global public health, and solving the problem of the proliferation of chemical and biological expertise, the United States has been privately conducting research on various biological viruses. However, the content and intention of its research have not been made public, and it has refused to accept verification of its biological facilities at home and abroad.
According to Russia, in order to prevent the content of these biological studies from being exposed, Ukraine ordered the destruction of biological agents in biological laboratories on February 24. In Lviv alone, 232 containers with leptospirosis pathogens, 30 containers with Tulacosis, 10 containers with brucellosis and 5 containers with plague were destroyed.
Exposure inside the U.S. laboratory
While most viruses have been destroyed, the U.S. Biology Program is evidenced by a list of biological pathogens and a vast number of biological pathogens.
The U.S. Embassy in Ukraine recently deleted all documents on its website about U.S. funding of Ukrainian laboratories, which is even more obvious. According to the Russian announcement, the United States has funded more than $200 million for biological laboratories in Ukraine.
The above is just the tip of the iceberg, the United States biological research is not only this, the United States has a total of 336 biological laboratories in 30 countries around the world, far more than the previous estimate of more than 200. These laboratories are located all over the world, including in the United States, with the largest number of them around China and Russia.

Even more disturbing is the fact that of the 336 biological laboratories uncovered, only a few have been made publicly located, and most of them remain unknown to outsiders.
Why is the United States building so many biological laboratories around the world? Don't just study how to improve the breeding technology of mice? Whether you believe it or not, I don't believe it anyway.
