"Award-winning military and civilian scientists, highly trained support personnel, and unique, state-of-the-art research facilities make USAMRIID a critical resource for the Army, the Department of Defense, and the United States."

This statement sounds unreasonably bold. *Just a note* Peoplesunionpro 05:38, 2 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Surely it's a statement of fact, if the scientists have won awards, the support personnel underwent a lot of training and their research facilities are state-of-the-art? :o) I'm nothing to do with USAMRIID (I'm not even American) but, as noone else has commented, I'm gonna remove the NPOV tag. — OwenBlacker 04:38, 30 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Popular Culture Section[edit]

There should be a Popular Culture section, I think, which describes some of the more notable movies and books which have the USAMRIID as a major part of its story line. Often the MRIID is depicted as the bag guy, a fascist right wing military organization, but there are movies and books which cover what we really do (which isn't anything at all sinister.)

Sars Cov - 2 came from here?[edit]

Just wanted to let y'all know that there is a pretty widespread theory in China that Sars Cov- 2 originated from this lab in June/ July 2019. And that that is the reason why the CDC shut it down for not complying with biosafety standards in August 2019. Could this somehow be included in this article? Or is it too speculative? It's a pretty prevasive theory.--Woman on a mission 👶🏼👦🏼👧🏼🙅🏼🕵🏼‍♀️👩‍💻 22:00, 8 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
