Found this is my email this morning - has anyone else heard anything
about germ labs? This was from someone on a mail list I belong to:
"A caller to C-Span's morning show today said that some tough FBI guys were sent to secure a couple of government germ labs in New Orleans before the storm. They were guarding them with snipers, etc as the contents of the labs could be a major life threat. The caller didn't say whether the labs were flooded after the storm. But if this caller's claim is true and there was a risk of leakage, it would be a real good idea to get out of town.
I do know that Tulane Medical School has a department or specialty in tropical medicine. Tropical regions are where many especially nasty germs are native to. So a govt germ lab near Tulane would be logical."
My daughter's roommate worked for the EPA at a major university. She was responsible for the security of stuff like anthax. When there was a presidential visit, all kinds of extra security went into place. It would be no surprise to me if agents were sent in to secure the labs.
Since more than 1/3 of the passport requests in the US are handled through the New Orleans office, the Fed Building in NO has a large pile of blank Passports.
