Okay, this is very conspiracy theory sounding, and I have no proof the two are at all related... Just saying...

They just broke ground two months ago on the move of the Plum Island research facility to Manhattan, Kansas? Isn't that pretty close to St. Joseph, Missouri?

Tick-borne disease in Connecticut, close to Plum Island...

Tick-borne disease in Missouri, close to new facility being established... I wonder if they have already been renting space somewhere around there while it's being finished.

Coincidences abound.
