What the hell were these guys even thinking making this virus in the first place?  It's pure stupidity...

wow that's some amazing reserch o.O

Maar doodslaan deed hij niet, want tussen droom en daad,
Staan wetten in de weg en praktische bezwaren,
En ook weemoedigheid, die niemand kan verklaren,
En die des avonds komt, wanneer men slapen gaat.

"A second, independent team of researchers led by Yoshihiro Kawaoka of the universities of Wisconsin and Tokyo is understood to have carried out similar work with similar results, which has underlined how easy it is to create the super virus with a combination of deliberate mutations and random genetic changes brought about by passing avian flu manually from the nose of one ferret to another."

In other words, this knowledge has already gone global anyways.

That doesn't mean it's gone global.  It just means two independent researchers achieved the same research ends... there's a big difference.

" In the laboratory, it was possible to change H5N1 into an aerosol-transmissible virus that can easily be rapidly spread through the air," Dr Fouchier said. "This process could also take place in a natural setting."

When I was a boy back in the cold war, this was called 'weaponizing the bio-war agent"

Results: The images obtained showed that during intercourse in the
