Joe Rogan recently voiced his concern following the reports of the disappearance of lethal virus vials from a lab in Australia. According to reports, these viruses pose a serious danger to humanity.
The Queensland government revealed on Monday that numerous deadly virus vials had gone missing from a lab and has directed Queensland Health to look into the situation right away, launching an investigation known as 'The Part 9 investigation'. Among the missing viruses are over 100 vials of hendra virus, two vials of hantavirus, and 223 vials of lyssavirus, according to Queensland Health Minister Tim Nicholls. Nicholls issued a statement, saying:
''With such a serious breach of biosecurity protocols and infectious virus samples potentially missing, Queensland Health must investigate what occurred and how to prevent it from happening again. The Part 9 investigation will ensure nothing has been overlooked in responding to this incident and examine the current policies and procedures in operation today at the laboratory. This investigation will also consider regulatory compliance and staff conduct.'' [H/t: Fox news]

''Whoops.''
According to Sam Scarpino, the director of AI and life sciences at Northeastern University in Boston, these viruses pose a major risk to human life. In an interview with Fox News Digital, Scarpino claimed that although they have a high death rate, their potential to spread among humans is quite low.
''The pathogens reported missing are all high-consequence and could pose a threat to the public...Given the limited ability for any of these pathogens to transmit from person to person, the risk of an epidemic is very low.'' [H/t: Fox news]
Gregg Giannotti comments on Kylie Kelce's show overtaking Joe Rogan's JRE as the nation's top podcast
Last week, Spotify made public their ranking of the top 100 podcast shows in the U.S. Notably, Jason Kelce's wife, Kylie Kelce, overtook Joe Rogan's The Joe Rogan Experience podcast for the top rank.
However, the news surprised New York radio show Boomer and Gio host Gregg Giannotti, who shared her opinion on Spotify's ranking.
''I honestly wasn't even gonna bring it up 'cause I thought it was so ridiculous that Spotify would actually say that. I mean, there's just no way. If you look at any of the Joe Rogan YouTube numbers and compare that to whatever the Kelces are doing, come on."
