The US Embassy in Ukraine has a list of biosafety laboratories in Ukraine. Below is a screenshot of their Biological Threat Reduction Program page.
A list of the laboratories in Dnipropetrovsk, Kherson, Ternopil, Zakapartska, and Lviv is on the right side. The links to the Fact sheets are not working anymore on the US Embassy website but you can see them at The Pentagon Bio-weapons.
Below is a continuation of the same webpage with Fact Sheets on the right side about the laboratories in Lviv, Kharkiv, Luhansk, Dnipropetrovsk, and Vinnytsia Diagnostic Laboratories.
On the left side are the active research projects.
BTRP (Biological Threat Reduction Program) supports many collaborative research projects through which Ukrainian and American scientists work together. A few recent examples are:
- “Risk Assessment of Selected Avian EDPs (Early Detection Program) Potentially Carried by Migratory Birds over Ukraine”
- “Prevalence of Crimean Congo hemorrhagic fever virus and hantavirusesin Ukraine and the potential requirement for differential diagnosis of suspect leptospirosis patients”
- “The Spread of African Swine Fever Virus (ASFV) in Domestic Pigs and Wild Boars in Ukraine – Building Capacity for Insight into the Transmission of ASFV through Characterization of Virus Isolates by Genome Sequencing and Phylogenetic Analysis”
- “ASF Biosurveillance and ASF Regional Risk Assessment: A Field to Plate Survey”
The following is from Dilyana Gaytandzhieva, a Middle East correspondent who wrote The Pentagon Bio-weapons in 2018. She wrote in detail with supporting papers, the Pentagon Biolabs in Ukraine and the alleged leaks of infectious diseases in the areas around those Biolabs.
The map of the 11 Pentagon Biolaboratories in Ukraine funded by the US Department of Defense Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) can be seen below. You can find the PDF files showing that the DTRA is the donor at this LINK.
Even though the Biosafety labs (BSL) are in Ukraine, Ukrainians are prohibited from disclosing publicly any sensitive information about the US program.
The US military program is sensitive information
Ukraine has no control over the military bio-laboratories on its own territory. According to the 2005 Agreement between the US DoD and the Ministry of Health of Ukraine the Ukrainian government is prohibited from public disclosure of sensitive information about the US program and Ukraine is obliged to transfer to the US Department of Defense (DoD) dangerous pathogens for biological research. The Pentagon has been granted access to certain state secrets of Ukraine in connection with the projects under their agreement.
Biowarfare scientists under diplomatic cover
Among the set of bilateral agreements between the US and Ukraine is the establishment of the Science and Technology Center in Ukraine (STCU) – an International organization funded mainly by the US government which has been accorded diplomatic status. The STCU officially supports projects of scientists previously involved in the Soviet biological weapons program.
Over the past 20 years the STCU has invested over $285 million in funding and managing some 1,850 projects of scientists who previously worked on the development of weapons of mass destruction.
Living near BSL labs can be hazardous, mainly when lab leaks occur.
Infectious diseases surrounding the Biolabs
364 Ukrainians died from Swine Flu
One of the Pentagon laboratories is located in Kharkiv, where in January 2016 at least 20 Ukrainian soldiers died from Flu-like virus in just two days with 200 more being hospitalized.
The Ukrainian government did not report on the dead Ukrainian soldiers in Kharkiv. As of March 2016 364 deaths have been reported across Ukraine (81.3 % caused by Swine Flu A (H1N1) pdm09 – the same strain which caused the world pandemic in 2009).
Police investigate infections with incurable diseases.
A highly suspicious Hepatitis A infection spread rapidly in just a few months across South East Ukraine where most of the Pentagon Biolabs are located.
37 people have been hospitalized for Hepatitis A in the Ukrainian city of Mykolaiv as of January 2018. Local police have launched an investigation into “infection with human immunodeficiency virus and other incurable diseases”.
Three years ago more than 100 people in the same city became infected with Cholera. Both diseases are alleged to have spread through contaminated drinking water.
In the summer of 2017 60 people with Hepatitis A were admitted to hospital in the city of Zaporizhia, the cause of this outbreak is still unknown.
In the Odessa region, 19 children from an orphanage were hospitalized for hepatitis A in June 2017.
29 cases of Hepatitis A were reported in Kharkiv in November 2017. The virus was isolated in contaminated drinking water. One of the Pentagon bio-labs is located in Kharkiv which was blamed for the deadly Flu outbreak a year ago which claimed the lives of 364 Ukrainians.

Ukraine and Russia hit by new highly virulent cholera infection
In 2011 Ukraine was hit by a cholera outbreak. 33 patients were reportedly hospitalized for severe diarrhea. A second outbreak struck the country in 2014 when more than 800 people all across Ukraine were reported to have contracted the disease. In 2015 at least 100 new cases were registered in the city of Mykolaiv alone.
A new highly virulent variant of the cholera agent Vibrio cholera, with a high genetic similarity to the strains reported in Ukraine, hit Moscow in 2014.
According to a 2014 Russian Research Anti-Plague Institute genetic study the cholera strain isolated in Moscow was similar to the bacteria which caused the epidemic in neighboring Ukraine.Source: Dilyana.bg
Police investigate Botulism toxin poisoning in Ukraine
115 Botulism cases, with 12 deaths, were reported in Ukraine in 2016. In 2017 the Ukrainian Ministry of Health confirmed a further 90 new cases, with 8 deaths, of botulinum toxin poisoning (one of the most poisonous biological substances known).
According to the local health authorities, the cause of the outbreak was food poisoning into which police launched an investigation. The Pentagon biolaboratories in Ukraine were among the prime suspects, as botulinum toxin is one of the bioterrorism agents which have already been produced at a Pentagon bioweapons facility in the US. (see below)
The Ukrainian government stopped supplying antitoxin in 2014 and no botulism vaccines in stock were available during the 2016-2017 outbreak.
Botulism is a rare and extremely dangerous illness caused by a toxin produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum.
1 gm of the toxin can kill as many as 1 million people
Aerosol experiments with Botulinum Neurotoxin and Anthrax
Documents prove that the US Army produces, possesses, and tests aerosols of the most lethal toxin in the world – Botulinum Neurotoxin. In 2014 the Department of the Army purchased 100 mg of Botulinum Toxin from Metabiologics for tests at Dugway Proving Ground.
The experiments date back to 2007 when an unspecified quantity of the toxin was procured to the Department of the Army by the same company – Metabiologics.
According to the 2012 West Desert Test Center Report, the military facility performs tests with Botulinum Neurotoxin Aerosol, as well as with aerosolized Anthrax, Yersinia pestis, and Venezuelan Equine Encephalitis Virus (VEE).
Last month, Dilyana reported on a DTRA study involving soldiers in Ukraine and the Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic fever and hantaviruses. This project is listed in the US Embassy website screenshot above.
The Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) has funded a similar project involving soldiers in Ukraine code-named UP-8: The spread of Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) virus and hantaviruses in Ukraine and the potential need for differential diagnosis in patients with suspected leptospirosis. The project started in 2017 and was extended a few times until 2020, internal documents show.
According to the project’s description, blood samples will be collected from 4,400 healthy soldiers in Lviv, Kharkiv, Odesa, and Kyiv. 4,000 of these samples will be tested for antibodies against hantaviruses, and 400 of them – for the presence of antibodies against the Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) virus. The results of the blood testing will not be provided to the study participants.
There is no information as to what other procedures will be performed except that “serious incidents, including deaths should be reported within 24 hours. All deaths of study subjects that are suspected or known to be related to the research procedures should be brought to the attention of the bioethics committees in the USA and Ukraine.”
Concluding thoughts
Do you remember any aspect of your life where you benefited from any discovery from a Biosafety (Bioweapons) laboratory? Try as hard as I can, I don’t know of anything applicable to patient care that came from a biosafety lab.
Laboratory Biosecurity incidents happen with or without war. The current conflict in Ukraine raises the possibility of a bioweapon spread. It can happen with the destruction of the biosafety lab, or they may get stolen and sold on the black market. Be mindful of any hemorrhagic fever, cholera, or any infection coming from a point source. It may not be natural.
We do live in exciting times.

I have just been banned from posting on Infowars because I mentioned that pentagon run biolabs in Ukraine.
So much for free speech platforms
Wow – I thought InfoWars was more open minded.
