NO it wont, read up on stuff before you make such statements.
if you eat contaminated meat it will give you a form of food poisoning which is treatable and is rarely fatal.

isn't Porton Down in Wiltshire?

[bigpaul]

yes, and in the past they have had one or two "oops, we released some stuff by accident" moments haven't they?
also Anthrax, Foot and Mouth and even The Plague can remain dormant in the soil for hundreds of years until something sets it off again.
