Spotted on Rumor Mill News 2004 01 28:Within the past week two biosafety experts , both who had evidently been involved with a lab upgrade at University Of Texas Medical Branch, have died.
Dr. Robert Shope was 74 and was reported to have died from pulmonary fibrosis. This disease can be caused by viruses or bacteria. In the last two years, Dr Shope worked on a Defense Department project to develope antidotes to viral agents that terrorists might use. Dr. Shope was Co-Director of The World Arbovirus Reference Center. They maintain a large collection of viruses which are made available to researchers worldwide.
Dr. Michael Kiley died Jan. 24. He was 52. He was reported to have died from a heart attack. He was the Chief Biosafety Officer for the U.S. Dept. Of Agriculture.
My source says that both of these Doctors were working on the upgrade of the UTMB lab to a level 4. Being a level 4 lab means that the lab can now work with the most dangerous microbes known to man. Plum Island is another lab seeking this same upgrade for the purpose of biowarfare research. .....---
