Their strategy was to deal a great blow to the US fleet so that it would take years for the US to be able to challenge the IJN. Meanwhile Japan would finish the Chinese war and through their Economic Co-Prosperity Sphere regain enough materials to further build up their armed forces and be able to negotiate from a position of strength.

We have them in every single country, I'm sure that 330 or whatever figure is right. We study enemy weapons and try to take countermeasures. Should we not be doing that? Should we not be doing that locally where the threat is the biggest?
Of course we don't want them to fall into the Russian hands because then they will know how much we know about their germs.
Again, should we NOT be doing that? Preventing outbreaks? Reducing threat of biological weapons?

Yes, absolutely! I hope this is the case..

Else why would the US official be very concerned that the labs could fall into Russia’s hands? Because then Russia would just so much better than Ukraine at preventing infectious diseases? No, it’s because there’s possibly samples in there they do not want Russia getting a hold of, is my guess

Valid points to both teams.
I don't trust my government. I trust Russia's even less however... I will downgrade my thoughts on shady biolabs to pure speculation .
