922r matter? What is the likelihood of a bioweapon attack within the next 20 years?
I guess Russia has a weaponized version of Ebola? Link |

In all seriousness though, microorganism genetic engineering is so advanced at this point that if a superpower decided to go all in, there would be fuckall to stop it. That is also the biggest detractor for such things. Not to mention a lot of transmission vectors are very picky. Airborne, but you have to make it UV resistant, but that changes X so you have to fix Y, etc.
There are some spots that are perfect for them. Others are much less so. Mind you, I've never slept in a Motel 8, I like the grape flavored paint chips, and most of all, I love lamp. |

so what youre saying is that they can specifically target certain genetic traits like the mitochondrial dna of middle eastern descent? Quoted:

Your high end insulins for example are made by a highly modified fungus programmed to output a tailored insulin. Lantus, Humalog, Novolog, etc are perfect examples. Vat grown for specific performance. |
