And I worked with quite a few loony tune MD/PhD’s when I worked in R&D.
It’s just a matter of time.
I read an article in Washingtonian magazine back in the 70’s Ft. Dietrich had an incident with variant of SV-40 (Simian vacuolating virus 40). A worker, Asa Gordon, stumbled in the parking lot on the way in and scuffed his knuckle, breaking the skin and causing a slight abrasion. He worked with the virus in a containment chamber via arm long gloves. After he left work a routine safety check detected a break in the gloves and traces of human blood. The race was on to find who worked that station.
In the meantime Asa went home and got ready to go to a group dinner at a local restaurant. He already was starting to feel “funny”.When he got there the restaurant was closed and the manager met him at the door and said the dinner was canceled and he should go home. He went home and started to get sick. He called for medical help and was taken to a hospital in Frederick MD. He was gravely ill at that time.
Government personnel showed up and had the floor he was on evacuated and all nurses and doctors checked for any symptoms. His room was sealed and two technicians monitored his conditions remotely till he died. His body was sealed in a special container. All equipment in the room had similar treatment. The floor and walls were pulled off and taken away to be incinerated.
While the Washingtonian magazine was doing research about the story all records of Asa Gordon were systematically destroyed. When they first started there were no records beyond the 6th grade. After that even those records disappeared. I believe someone at the hospital tipped the magazine about him. From time of contamination to death by a raging cancer seems to be about 48hrs. Apparently the virus wasn't airborne and only transmitted by contact with body fluids, similar to Ebola
I am taking this from memory so my time line may be off a bit but the name and the virus are correct.
