Dear Editor: Well, Madison, are your children safe? A research program at the UW-Madison may place them all in danger in the event of a viral release. Professor Yoshihiro Kawaoka has been performing bird flu experiments there, beside the cows and ice cream, that could cause a global pandemic. There would be only a short interval to quarantine an outbreak, and Madison, do you have a plan for that? Has the state inspected this operation for safety? Is there sufficient security to stop a terrorist break-in?
