Investigation: U.S. company bungled Ebola response

San Francisco-based Metabiota Inc. was tapped by the Sierra Leonean government and the World Health Organization to help monitor the spread of the virus and support the response after Ebola was discovered circulating in neighboring Guinea in March 2014. But emails obtained by AP and interviews with aid workers on the ground show that some of the company's actions made an already chaotic situation worse.

I can't >directly connect those dots but it looks like Metabiotia not only got DoD funds but outsourced its Biohazardous work to poorly trained idiots and made pocket change.

Just gotta see if the "Big Guy" got his 10% from them. but Anon's too ADD to sort and collate all that.

Eyes on, not sure what I have

Metabiota, a San Francisco-based company that tracks and models epidemic risk, said it was approached by one hospitality company that is looking at insurance coverage in the "hundreds of millions of dollars." Munich Re said it has received "several hundred" inquiries from insurance companies and corporate clients since the coronavirus outbreak began.

Demand for products that cover companies whose businesses are disrupted by an epidemic was "muted" prior to the outbreak, said Gunther Kraut, head of epidemic risk solutions at the German company.

"As this is a relatively nascent market, it's too early to speculate on the future potential size, but Munich Re believes this to be a scalable opportunity," Kraut said. "The impact of the coronavirus provides clear evidence that there is a need for this kind of risk mitigation solution to enhance the economic resilience of company balance sheets," he added.

Looks like Russia wasn't bullshitting.

We analyze evidence of direct engagement of 🇺🇸political establishment in funding military bioactivities in #Ukraine, providing funds for the #Pentagon contractors Black & Veatch and Metabiota. The published communication shows that the goals were far from scientific.

I was thinking it was greater then just Insurance.

Think Federal Funds as aide, bailouts and recouped losses.

And i'm sure Insurance Fraud, too.

Iraq next?

Today, Metabiota, the pioneer in epidemic risk modeling, announced it has been awarded a subcontract from Black & Veatch (B&V) to support the U.S. Defense Threat Reduction Agency’s (DTRA) Cooperative Biological Engagement Program (CBEP) in Iraq
