Fighters have occupied a national public laboratory in Sudan holding samples of diseases including polio and measles, creating an “extremely, extremely dangerous” situation, the World Health Organization warned Tuesday.

Fighters “kicked out all the technicians from the lab… which is completely under the control of one of the fighting parties as a military base,” said Nima Saeed Abid, the WHO’s representative in Sudan.

 

He did not say which of the fighting parties had taken over the laboratory.

 

Abid said he had received a call from the head of the national lab in Khartoum on Monday, a day before a US-brokered 72-hour ceasefire between Sudan’s warring generals officially came into effect after 10 days of urban combat.

“There is a huge biological risk associated with the occupation of the central public health lab,” said Abid.

 

He pointed out that the lab held so-called isolates, or samples, of a range of deadly diseases, including measles, polio and cholera.

The UN health agency also said there had been 14 attacks on healthcare facilities or personnel during the fighting, leaving eight healthcare workers dead and two injured.

 

And it warned that “depleting stocks of blood bags risk spoiling due to lack of power.”

“In addition to chemical hazards, bio-risk hazards are also very high due to lack of functioning generators,” Abid said.

 

The Sudanese health ministry has put the number of deaths so far at 459, with a further 4,072 wounded, the WHO said Tuesday, adding it had not been able to verify that number.

– 270,000 could flee –

The UN refugee agency said thousands had already fled the violence and that it was bracing for up to 270,000 people to flee Sudan into neighbouring Chad and South Sudan.

UNHCR said it does not yet have estimates for the numbers headed to other surrounding countries.

 

Laura Lo Castro, the agency’s representative in Chad, said some 20,000 refugees had arrived there since the fighting began 10 days ago.

Speaking to reporters in Geneva via video-link, she said the UNHCR expected up to 100,000 “in the worst-case scenario”.

 

Her colleague in South Sudan, Marie-Helene Verney, said that around 4,000 of the more than 800,000 South Sudanese refugees living in Sudan had returned home since the fighting began.

 

Looking forward, she told reporters that “the most likely scenario is 125,000 returns of South Sudanese refugees into South Sudan”.

Up to 45,000 Sudanese might also flee as refugees into South Sudan, she said.

– ‘Staring into the abyss’ –

Jens Laerke, spokesman for the UN humanitarian agency, said the fighting had led to “acute shortages of food, water, medicines and fuel, and limited communications and electricity.”

 

“The people of Sudan, already deeply affected by humanitarian needs, are staring into the abyss.”

 

Some 15.8 million people in Sudan — a third of the population — already needed humanitarian aid before the latest violence erupted.

But humanitarian operations have also been heavily affected by the fighting, Laerke warned, highlighting among other things reports of looting of humanitarian supplies and warehouses.

 

Five humanitarian workers have been killed.

What genius decided to build a lab like that in Sudan? If there any "gain of function" malarkey going on there? Is Tedros the Terrorist in on it? How about Fauci? I think we should be told.

Sudan was chosen for its stability.   

 

All jokes aside, funny how Sudan SUDDENLY destabilized.

 

As usual news gives no warning what is going on in a country, then the country suddenly goes off like a powderkeg...

I doubt many journalists could find Sudan on a map. It does have a volatile history though. The US Energy Information Administration provides a potted history of Sudan's civil conflicts since the 1950s. The latest trouble seems to be following a pattern.

Does anyone else find it strange that we mainly get one side of a story? Not sure about the Sudan lab stuff as I haven't looked into it, but the Ukraine lab narrative is a clown show.

Glenn Tiffert, Hoover Institution: Well, China actually isn't party to a lot of those conventions, and China also does not observe the same ethical stands with regard to basic research.

All I know is what Wagner is up to. I should probably look into the politics of Sudan.

 

I wouldn't be surprised if Biden and Putin create another migrant crisis.

Any reason why they were keeping all these dangerous bacteria alive and together in the first place?

When they said it was all kept in a lab, what kind of lab was it
