This is serious. Europeans are very concerned.

There is a curious story about the avian flu here:

pressherald.mainetoday.com/news/state/050806mbl.shtml

(Maine lab fined for smuggling scheme)

Avian flu is banned from the USA. Companies cannot bring samples in for research. Yet the Saudis smugged some in . They wanted a small Maine company to develop a vaccine. Why? France is the world leader in vaccines. They would have done it no problem. Was, in 1997, Avian flu that much of a threat to Saudi Arabia? Or were the Saudi’s concerned about a bioweapon? At the time of the smuggling former Maine Senator Willian Cohen was Sec. of Defense. Did he have any contacts with Maine Biological Laboratories, the company involved in the smuggling?
