I mean the thing that really makes me think this isn't real is why would the US fund a bioweapons lab in Eastern Ukraine when must have known that Russian invasion was likely and that a bioweapons lab could easily be captured by the Russians? Like, wouldn't it make a lot more sense to position something like that in western Ukraine, or to even just smuggle bioweapons into the country if that's their goal?
The Ukrainian government has already shown it has a willingness to lie to the US about the situation on the ground and what it is intending to do. It’s possible the US funded these labs for “defense” against russian bioweapons and then wound up with a :shocked-pikachu: moment.
The other aspect is that regardless of whether the US snuck bioweapons in, they still need someplace to store the weapons and keep them secure. These locations would need to be labs with some degree of military presence. You don’t want things like anthrax or even (hopefully not) smallpox just floating around, they have to be locked down and managed until you decide to deploy them.
Sure, but why place a bioweapons lab in Eastern Ukraine where its at higher risk for capture by the Russians. And even if it was there, it's been ten days since the invasion started, surely the US government would have evacuated the lab and incinerated any evidence by now.
