The reason the FBI and Energy department are significant is the FBI - it’s not just a bunch of gumshoes. They have scientists. They have a lab at Fort Detrick, which does bio forensic research. And the Energy Department oversees the national laboratories, like Lawrence Livermore, which invented fusion. They have scientists under their command. And so they’re able to look at this more so than other agencies from a scientific perspective.
What does the department of energy know about biological laboratories?
