Remove all BSL 3 labs
After reading through this article, and then doing a little bit of Googling, I realized that there are 4 BSL-3 labs within walking distance of my current location, and at least 10 within 30 minutes. I am at UNC-CH. Anyways, point is, the number of BSL-3 labs has skyrocketed at a rate so high that it is no longer relevant to list BSL-3 labs in this article. Such a list would warrant a separate article possibly. Jjesusfreak01 (talk) 21:36, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
- What's usually done on Misplaced Pages is to start a new article titled List of biosafety facilities. Change notability "Level 4 are accepted because of the nature of their work. If the facility is 3 or below, it must be linked to an article elaborating on it", by requiring an article be associated with the entry, it exposes it to WP:N. Does this help?

- Well, you are in a university/agricultural town, but I see your point. If done, perhaps list these labs by their public/private funding?biopunk 09:00, 20 July 2009 (UTC)biopunk
I have to agree here, most hospitals dealing with pathology have at least a small level 3 lab for things like TB, a list of all the level 3 labs in the world would run into the many thousands! A more interesting list would be of all the level 4 labs, as these are much rarer.Philman132 (talk) 17:52, 13 April 2010 (UTC)
I would agree - remove the list of BSL 3 labs. I know of several in Montreal, Canada (my home) alone (I work in one). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.230.152.3 (talk) 21:38, 22 April 2010 (UTC)
Some info about the Institute of Virology and Immunoprophylaxis (IVI)
It is correct, that there are treated only animal diseases, but some are also dangerous for humans
(rabies, avian flu, porcine flu, etc...), therefore in some experiments suits are worn!
Please, somebody with a wiki-account, correct the info.
I don't have one, and I don't want to create one just for this.
Regards. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.2.229.23 (talk) 19:02, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
Missing Level 3/4 Facility
On the table, there is an entry to say a Level 4 facility is being built in the United Kingdom, but not where, nor who the owner of the building/land is currently. Most likely to be the DSTL or even QinetiQ, although the latter is highly unlikey. Perhaps a research university such as Oxford, Cambridge, Birmingham or perhaps Imperial College?
Hendra virus is NOT a BSL-3 pathogen
It is a BSL-4 pathogen. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 158.111.5.34 (talk) 21:55, 16 December 2010 (UTC)
