I asked AI how many bio labs the US has and what the risk assessment is: Could not give me a specific number: When will a US biolab have a tragic event?
BSL-3 and BSL-4 labs are registered under the Federal Select Agent Program, jointly administered by CDC's Division of Regulatory Science and Compliance and APHIS (USDA). DoD facilities register under the same program.
DoD's own network includes the Army's Medical Research and Development Command labs — Fort Detrick (USAMRIID), Dugway Proving Ground, Edgewood Chemical Biological Center, and overseas sites like USAMRU-K in Kenya, NMRC in Singapore, and the Lugar Center in Tbilisi, Georgia.
CDC operates relatively few labs directly — its main campus is at Roybal in Atlanta, plus the National Center for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious Diseases facilities.
The "in conjunction with" part is where it gets murky. Much of the overlap is contractual, grant-based, or through the Public Health Emergency Preparedness program — not a joint-operations list anyone publishes.
🌍 Continental vs. Outside
Continental US: Dozens of BSL-3 facilities across academic, federal, and private sectors. The exact count fluctuates as labs are added, decommissioned, or reclassified.
Outside CONUS: DoD maintains a genuinely global footprint — Germany, Italy, Kenya, Thailand, Singapore, Georgia, South Korea, Japan, and more. The Walter Reed Army Institute of Research alone runs multiple overseas detachments.
Apparently, Russian scientists are no less careless than Chinese, American and other nationality scientists in their handling of dangerous pathogens in the lab. The questions remain, since such accidents do and will happen, how do we better educate lab personnel, as well as protect them, and all of us, against such inevitable, potentially catastrophic eventualities?
Totally agree & this article is why I believe efforts to control AI or SI are a fool’s errand. Between all the countries & agencies & people (who knew we had a Under Secretary of State for Arms Control and International Security Affairs), plus the element of whatever can go wrong, will go wrong, this epitomizes Russian Roulette (pun intended).
The marina where i work has extended my P/T Parts Counter hustle by 2 days ... This has finally given me the freedom to re-join Malone News as a "paid" after a year or so as a "clinger-on".
Your extensive, balanced coverage of the current topic demands this support.
One big problem is that no matter what the "officials" say, people will not believe them! After we all got burned by the "experts" during C0v1d, who confidently assured us it was raining, when we could SEE them literally peeing on our leg, even if there IS a dangerous situation, most people will simply not take it seriously!
The WHO, the CDC, the NIH, etc...are the little boy crying wolf over and over again. And when the wolf actually does arrive, no one is going to respond or react in time! ALL of these labs need to be shut down - they have brought nothing but trouble and disease, powered by our tax dollars, and run by megalomaniacs who are more often than not incompetent to boot!
What jumps off the pages here, Drs. Malone, is the apparent contrast between Russia’s response to a pathogenic event, and that of China’s in 2020.
While the various Russian agencies appear to be providing only partial answers at present, at least their event-containment response would appear to be quite vigorous, in comparison to the Wuhan event.
It's still hot as hell out here in the Nevada desert, and I have an upper respiratory ick of some kind, so the combination is making me crabby and pessimistic about the world at large. With that said, I must confess that I feel better about how Russia is handling this possible plague case than I would if it was happening here in my own country.
The inconsistency of relayed information reminds me of the wild boar deaths mystery in Spain near a lab. This seems to be happening at a consistent rate, probably always has, only now we have you to report these events more comprehensively. Nothing like waiting to see what "accident" happens next...
Great interview with you on this very topic this am on my am radio station while driving to work ! Thank you !
And I only work 2 days a month 😂😂
wow what a happy coincidence.
Dr Malone Americas treasure of unbiased information
Thank you for everything you do!!
From a clinician’s point of view I find your analysis superb.

How about those in Ukraine noted by Victoria Nuland?

Thanks for your excellent article! You Malones are a National Treasure in my opinion!
Thank you! It is such a blessing that we have an American Patriot that is qualified to access the circumstances in Russia.

I've come and gone over the years for the same reason - except the marina part...that sounds fun.
