There are lots of different types of bio labs, for example when you visit the doctor and have blood drawn, it goes to a "bio lab" for analysis.
They are not called bio labs.
They're clinical laboratories. Posted on 4/25/23 at 3:09 pm to CoachDon
Why are we setting up deadly bio-labs in unstable regions? It's not like Sudan had a recent turn for the worst. It's always been a shyt show.

Anywhere that biological research is conducted can be considered a "bio lab."

What is the basis for your belief that the United States had anything to do with this lab?

The Sudanese government.

The only person calling it a biolab is the OP. The linked articles don't refer to it as such.
From the linked article:
From the linked article:

The World Health Organization (WHO) says there's a "high risk of biological hazard" at a laboratory caught up in the ongoing conflict in Sudan.
[quote]Geneva — Fighters have occupied a national public laboratory in Sudan holding samples of diseases including polio and measles, creating an "extremely, extremely dangerous" situation, the World Health Organization warned Tuesday. Fighters "kicked out all the technicians from the lab... which is completely under the control of one of the fighting parties as a military base," said Nima Saeed Abid, the WHO's representative in Sudan.
He did not say which of the two warring factions had taken over the laboratory, as a tense truce appeared to be largely holding Tuesday, easing more than a week of intense fighting between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the country's RSF paramilitary group.
2 Sudan generals are at war with each other. Here's what to know.
Abid said he had received a call from the head of the national lab in Khartoum on Monday, a day before a US-brokered 72-hour ceasefire between Sudan's warring generals officially came into effect after 10 days of urban combat.

Officials said it was unclear who was behind the occupation of the National Public Health Laboratory in the capital Khartoum.
The city has been ravaged by fighting between the army and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF).
The WHO told the BBC on Tuesday that workers can no longer access the lab.
And it warned that power cuts were making it impossible to properly manage material at the lab.
Officials said that a broad range of biological and chemical materials are stored in the lab. The facility holds measles and cholera pathogens, as well as other hazardous materials.
A lack of power is also putting depleting stocks of blood bags stored at the lab at risk of spoiling.

Sudan?
Sounds like a great place for a high-risk bio lab to me!…

Should have been bombed back into the Neolithic Period, with the rest of Sudan, decades ago.

You are assuming when I say "we" I'm talking about the US government. Im actually talking about the human race considering the implications. There are numerous global Healthcare partnerships that share resources and research. There is no excuse for this.

So not a bio lab but a lab with high risk biohazards.

Very easy. Hire a fuel truck. Dump fuel all around the facility. Light a match.

Its a nation state with a national public health laboratory. Every nation on earth has such institutions.
Having dogshit security for it is totally inexcusable, but acting like there is "no excuse" for the labs existence is just asinine. These places exist because shithole countries want to improve their shitholes. What entity would even be responsible for preventing them from doing that?
