 The text describes a situation where a scientist, Michael Farrrell, resigned from his position at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) after being involved in a bioterrorism lab that potentially exposed dozens of workers to anthrax bacteria. The incident occurred between June 6 and June 13, when Farrrell was head of the Bioterrorism Rapid Response Laboratory. An investigation found that the lab did not follow proper safety protocols, and the CDC director, Tom Frieden, stated that the incident was "a serious mistake" and that it would be addressed. The incident highlights concerns about laboratory safety and the potential risks associated with handling dangerous pathogens.
