A secret Israeli bio-chemical lab has come out of the shadows as it helps in the struggle against coronavirus. Now, a source tells Reuters, it is testing a prototype vaccine on rodents. DanWilliams reports:
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ordered the Israel Institute for Biological Research , in rural Ness Ziona, to join the fight against the coronavirus pandemic on Feb. 1, prompting an easing of its secrecy as it cooperates with civilian scientists and private firms.
The IIBR is widely assumed to have worked on biological and chemical arms projects. Israel neither confirms nor denies this. “But the facility of the lab is very crowded and very busy and very dangerous so it has to be very slow and very cautious.” Zahavy described arranging an animal test-subject as “a very big challenge” because “this disease is not affecting animals”.
