The US government has been advised by a committee to keep all experimenting with the bird flu virus to remain a secret because if leaked, it could provide the needed information for the creation of a bioweapon. This is the first time that this has been advised, but the 2001 anthrax mailings did influence this decision. The government has made no formal decision yet, but personally I assume they will follow this committee's advice.
