China's PR Attempt To Showcase Its Wuhan’s Institute of Virology Backfires

Pictures from inside Wuhan’s secretive Institute of Virology show a broken seal on the door (centre of shot, by medical worker's right eye) of one of the refrigerators used to hold 1,500 different strains of virus

Daily Mail: 'I've seen better seals on my fridge!' Shocking photos from inside Wuhan lab show broken seal on unit which stores 1,500 virus strains - including the bat coronavirus behind the deadly pandemic

It'll be interesting. I'll get popcorn

Level 4 security lab and she handles virii without a full body suit under pressure. Just a mask. I've been in teaching labs at universities (security level 1 only!) where you have better equipment. This is madness!
