In an all out war those nations holding it tight, might release it. Samson option or just a madman dictator (his military might go ahead with the order too.) So, USA spends next to nothing and has insurance against this unlikely but catastrophic scenario. Makes perfect sense.
Others in comments also made a good point...what if the virus survives decades in cemeteries and is released when they dig or move the cemetery. Within a week hours it would probably be spread all over the world, given globalization.
- Bucephalus355 8y agoWinston Churchill held out against using Anthrax against the Nazi’s. I think it’s very surprising actually what countries won’t do in an all-out war. After all, the goal is usually to get the enemy to surrender / capture available resources / not turn the rest of the world against you. Millions can certainly die, but it could be very possible say for a World War III between US and China where no one winds up using nuclear weapons.
