Can you get hold of any fun viruses? I fancy some Ebola for some co-workers. Won't be able to bitch and moan about others when their eyes are dissolving.

Yeah, depends what I'm playing with really
Recently one of my students spiked herself with a contaminated hypodermic, I just wrote down the cell line, expression system, antibiotic resistance etc on a post it and sent her to casualty (I'm caring like that ;)

They shat themselves, isolated her and treated her in 5 seconds flat. How I laughed as people bleeding profusely were ignored for a small prick on the finger ;)
