They saw it as the possibility for a potential outbreak, so as scientists it would be beneficial to research those specimens further under various conditions. There's no way for me to determine for sure, so I could only speculate that they already had the virus on hand. As far as whether or not it was purposely released as a bioweapon to further political agendas, or whether or not it was something released by accident, or even if it was simply a strain that rose naturally, I can't say for sure. I lean towards feeling there were more nefarious intentions, simply because of the entities attempting to pose as "helpful" being involved.

Thanks for your view. I agree except I lean towards it being accidentally released. It seems as though the U.S. and Canada both had people over there and sent money there for years, so I lean towards vaccine research that got loose instead of biological warfare origins.
