Foot-and-mouth disease is back in the United Kingdom

Microbiologist Alexander S. Kekulé picks up the trail of the foot-and-mouth disease virus O1/BFS/67. He points out that this particular strain of the virus hasn't occurred in a natural outbreak of the disease since 1967 and therefore must come from one of the research institutes located just a few kilometres from the place where the disease broke out. However, the research institutes in question are refuting the accusations: "This is only making matters worse. A virus that is clearly a laboratory virus, as unmistakable as a white mouse, turns up right next to what is supposed to be a high security laboratory complex - and the renowned operators are unable to find the weak spot in the security system. The regulations for protection against biological hazards are obviously far from being strict enough."

Can the G8 fight global warming ?

Microbiologist and science journalist Alexander S. Kekulé believes the upcoming G8 summit could do the climate more harm than good: "The G8 summit has the potential to cause lasting damage to climate protection measures. There are few international bodies in which the US has as much say as in this club of the world's most powerful industrialised nations. Moreover, this time China and India - both nations that are disinclined to let themselves be dictated to in matters pertaining to the climate - are joining the party... Instead of trying to come up with weak compromises politicians should concentrate on the main problem: extracting energy from oil, gas and coal is destroying the basis of our existence, and the supplies will soon run out anyway. To solve this huge problem we need entirely new scientific concepts and economic structures. No one, not even Germany or the EU, has proposed a workable solution so far."
