This article has been mentioned by a media organization: Paul Rincon (April 16, 2020). "Coronavirus: Is there any evidence for lab release theory?". BBC News. Misplaced Pages lists over 50 around the world but there is no authoritative list.

Listing BSL-3 Sites

Surely it is a fool's errand to include a list of BLS-3 labs, given that the start of this section indicates that there are over 1000 in the US alone. Why not make the list of facilities only those with BSL-4 facilities? This would be an actually possible task and would may resolve the factual inaccuracy complaint. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.111.51.113 (talk • contribs) 2012-08-24T14:29:56‎

Kindly include information about plant pathogens

Want to know about biosafety level of potential plant pathogens, diseased plants, herbarium sheets of plant disease, agricultural field sample of plant disease, and instructions and rules and regulations about working with potential plant pathogens. 2409:4060:2017:F88E:A5E0:8244:A65:A7F2 (talk) 10:49, 30 April 2019 (UTC)

What kind of certification, qualification and inspection is required to open a plant pathology laboratory or a plant clinic?

To open a plant clinic or a plant pathology laboratory;

• 1. What kind of biohazard management training required prior to open the laboratory?

• 2. Who certifies the plant pathology laboratory?

• 3. Who inspects the laboratory for monitoring whether biosafety is being maintained properly and quality control of experiments? How to request an inspection?

• 4. Who investgates or receive complaints if a possible violation of biosafety occurs?

• 3. What kind of certification/ tickets/ stickers/ badges to stick on the parcel?

• 4. What are safe methods to pack the samples and prepare the envelop?

• 5. For an unidentified sample being sent for identification say for DNA isolation or PCR or sequencing, what would be the biosafety level?

• 6. Who (person)/ which institute is eligible to send cultures and who is the authority to give a biosafety level and/or a sending ticket or certification to the parcel containing live culture/organ for being sent or transferred?

Safety concerns

The section “safety concerns” only discusses issues in United States. Should it be expanded to include other countries or rephrased/rewritten to simply state to the effect of “concerns have been raised in the United States that there is no agency responsible for oversight “ Sarboss (talk) 21:30, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
