WHO Told Ukraine To Destroy 'High-Threat Pathogens' In Labs To Prevent Disease Spread

"The World Health Organization advised Ukraine to destroy 'high-threat pathogens' in the
country's public health laboratories in order to prevent
any potential spills"
that might infect the population during the Russian invasion, Reuters reports.
"As part of this work, WHO has strongly recommended to the Ministry of Health in Ukraine and other responsible bodies to destroy high-threat pathogens to prevent any potential spills," said the UN agency.
US Undersecretary of State Victoria Nuland acknowledged that Ukraine "has biological research facilities, which, in fact, we are now quite concerned Russian troops, Russian forces may be seeking to gain control of. So we are working with the Ukrainians on how they can prevent any of those research materials from falling into the hands of Russian forces should they approach." ZH
