Queensland lab loses infectious virus samples; investigation underway to assess security breach.
Queensland Health is investigating a significant breach at a state virology lab where infectious virus samples, including Hendra, Lyssavirus, and Hantavirus, went missing in August 2023.
Though described as a serious breach, health officials say the risk to the public is minimal as the samples would degrade rapidly outside a freezer.
The investigation, ordered by Health Minister Tim Nicholls, aims to determine if the samples were removed or destroyed.
Former Supreme Court Justice Martin Daubney will lead the probe.
