Anyone see that they recreated the 1918 Spanish Flu Virus?

and if So.....would you be concerned that they published the entire genome (sp?) for the all to see?

Remember, in 1918 the spanish flu virus (a confirmed bird flu that made the complete jump to humans) killed more people world wide in 6 months than all the deaths attributed to WW1 spaning 4 years? In Lab tests on the 1918 flu virus part Dux....when given to lab mice...it killed them faster than any other flu virus in existisance?

I can see publishing the findings and genome for the world to get a heads up/head start on the current bird flu virus spreadign across asia and on the fringes of europe, but am I the only one concerned that the bad guys can use this info for much wider chaos/harm than if they got their hands on a nuke? A nuke can kill a city......this other stuff could end humanity.

Have a nice day and........react, this should be interesting.

Yeah, see your point! There should be a knee jerk reaction to that sort of info going public. The smarter thing would have been to deliver the info to all the major labs who are involved, in a secure manner, don't you think?
