Vaccines are normally produced in horses (strong immune systems) or
chicken eggs (in quantity), but pigs are hosts of many microorganisms
that occur in humans. and so there is high risk of contamination. With
organs similar to human, pigs however are excellent subjects for testing
artificially gene-modified viruses for use in biological warfare.
The National Microbiology Laboratory in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, (an
offshoot of the British military biowarfare program at Porton Down, is
where an accidental release from a pig-infection experiment just occurred
(see Reuters article below).
This same lab, which has contracts with the Pentagon, was involved in
the capture, isolation, and gene modification of the Zaire ebola virus
from Central Africa that was later deliberately introduced by NSA chief
Anthony Lake and Plan International into the Republic of Guinea, as detailed
in my two investigative articles:

Here is the Reuters article of 8 November 2016 on the latest problem
at this biowar lab:
Canadian lab worker may have been exposed to Ebola by pigs infected
with the virus during an experiment
Worker noticed split in seam of protective suit during
decontamination
He may have been exposed to Ebola while working with
infected pigs
Six pigs were a part of experiment at a high-level
Canadian laboratory
All proper emergency procedures were followed and risks
are low
A Canadian lab worker may have been accidentally exposed to Ebola while
working with pigs that were infected with the virus on Monday.
The man was working with six infected pigs as part of an experiment, government
officials said on Tuesday.
He noticed a split in the seam of his protective suit during standard
decontamination procedures and prior to leaving the Winnipeg, Manitoba
lab, said John Copps, director of Canadian Food Inspection Agency's National
Centre for Foreign Animal Disease, where the incident happened.
All proper emergency procedures were followed and the risk to the employee,
co-workers and community are low, Copps said.

Ebola attracted global attention in 2014 during an epidemic in West Africa
that killed thousands.
The Winnipeg animal disease lab is on the same site as a microbiology
laboratory where scientists developed an experimental Ebola vaccine.
The facility is one of only a handful of North American labs capable of
handling pathogens requiring the highest level of containment.
There have been no confirmed Ebola cases in Canada, according to the Public
Health Agency's website.
The employee has agreed to be isolated and will be monitored for symptoms
by health officials for 21 days, Copps said.
It was not immediately clear how much contact the employee had with others
before realizing the risk of possible infection.
Six pigs (file photo) were infected with Ebola as part of the experiment,
and the man was suited up to move an anaesthetized pig to be sampled.
It is unclear how the man's suit ripped, officials said

Government officials offered few details about the employee during a conference
call with journalists.

It is unclear how the suit ripped, he said.
Ebola is spread through bodily fluids and individuals are not considered
infectious until they develop symptoms, which has not happened in this
case, said Theresa Tam, deputy chief public health officer of Canada's
Public Health Agency.
She said the employee was offered an Ebola vaccine, but officials would
not say if it was used. |
