Dave,

for IP, perhaps.

Russ Kick asks:

"At the very least, there are two Level-3 biolabs in New Orleans
 and a cluster of three in nearby Covington. They have been working
 with anthrax, mousepox, HIV, plague, etc. There are surely other
 labs in the city. [...]

 So with all the known and probable Level-3 biolabs in and around New
 Orleans, what's happened to the infected animals? Are they free and
 roaming? Are they dead, with their diseased bodies floating in the
 flood waters? And what about the cultures and vials of the diseases?
 Are they still secure? Are they being stolen? Were they washed away,
 now forming part of the toxic soup that coats the city?"
