The world’s oldest virus research lab | DW Documentary

New viruses and diseases, previously found only in tropical climates, are reaching Europe. Researchers in a high-security lab on the Baltic Sea island of Riems are working to put a stop to these dangerous viruses.
The Friedrich Loeffler Institute on the island of Riems can only be reached via a single bridge. The island lies in the Baltic Sea, and its isolated location is vital: Dangerous viruses are stored here, including Ebola, Rabies, Swine Fever, Crimean-Congo Fever and Sars-CoV-2.
The facility is one of only three such laboratories in the world - and the only one in Europe - where dangerous diseases can be researched using live animals such as cattle and pigs under high-security conditions. Researchers are working to understand how new pathogens spread, and to develop vaccines. It's a race against time, as viruses have long since come to have enormous global consequences.
African Swine Fever is on the rise in Eastern Europe. In Germany, wild boars were found dead of ASF for the first time in the fall of 2020. It’s vital to stop the further spread of the disease. So far in Germany, its rampant spread has been limited to wild pigs, but there is a high risk that the virus will begin to affect pig farms.
An outbreak in Germany, the world's third-largest pork producer, would be an economic disaster. Now, a promising potential vaccine is being tested in Riems. It could prove to be a life-saving solution.

As a hearing-impaired viewer, I particularly appreciated the superlatively distinct narration. Thanks also to Drs. Koch, Loeffler, and others who pioneered dangerous and indispensable research -- as well as to the medical heroes who continue to carry on the work today.

    We used to have an island like this in the US... Plum Island. It was closed down after the nearby town of Lyme, CT was overrun with a brand new bacterial infection in humans in 1975 that appeared to have eerily similar symptoms to that of foot and mouth disease in cattle. Foot and Mouth disease of course, being studied at Plum Island. The disease became known as Lyme Disease, named after the town of the first outbreak, and infects nearly 500,000 individuals each year in the US. In the 50s and 60s Plum Island was studying foot and mouth disease in cattle because of how incredibly vulnerable the stock in the Americas was to the disease. In EU/Asian continent, the cattle there get foot and mouth disease often and normally only results in killing off the symptomatic animal while the rest are able to fight off the spread. However, here in the Americas, our cattle stock is so vulnerable to the disease that once any animal is infected, it normally requires culling the entire herd. During the cold war, this was seen as an incredible vulnerability because if the soviets were able to unknowingly spread foot and mouth throughout various herds in our country, they could effectively destroy our entire cattle stock (and thus much of our food stock). Riems having even a single bridge to get to the facility sounds incredibly dangerous. It should be entirely cut off and accessible by boat or air as was Plum Island. Even without a bridge however, any flying animal can become infected and fly across the water to land which is what is thought to have happened at Lyme.

    I think you have your illnesses backwards - Lyme disease is a tick-borne illness that affects things like the joints and is often incurable. It cannot be transmitted person to person except through mother to child. Foot-and-mouth is contagious between people (I've had it) and is known as hoof-and-mouth for livestock.

German people are usually very respective of rules so they must know something we don't.

There's a lot that's happened which has been documented that is scary to most people, including me. Such as the sleep experiments, or the drug experiments, the animal testing experiments for consumer products, the lab experiments conducted by government scientists on humans, the PETA films show some horrible stuff as well. Actually the Hollywood films aren't as bad as reality when you consider everything. Censorship happens in Hollywood while declassified and uncensored documents and films don't censor what occurred.

    I don't know how many times the woman's voice said "at the highest bio-security level" as they showed technicians touching everything with their bare hands, not wearing face masks, and not wearing safety goggles, but the cognitive dissonance was painful even after just one time.

    A lot of times you don't need PPE it depends on what you're doing. At times they're wearing hazmat suits -high level PPE- so they obviously know when they do and don't need to wear it. I've not seen a time in the documentary where they should wear gloves and weren't. It's also well documented that people who wear gloves just carry more dirt on the gloves.

    Also, they might be doing reenactments that wouldn't require any PPE.

    As a multi discipline medical professional, I saw no inappropriate or dangerous handling of samples or test biologicals samples in this video. If one doesn't understand the context of the samples or dangers they may present, it can be easy to make an incorrect assumption. I assure you, there was no safety protocols broken here.

Please don't take this to seriously,I don't know first thing about you so I don't know how smart are you but I just had a good laugh at your comment not because of you because like I said I don't know first thing about you but because it would be nice if it was like that I would be one of the smartest persons alive,I love documentaries.I probably watched everything there is on KZread about space and many other topics.

    Wait, are you serious? Executing pigs through the trap and spreading blood and internal organs to the soil, then other insects and wild pigs will get caught again. Shouldn't this process be operated in a high-security lab or anywhere else rather than in open area forests? It is just a questionable investigation for me. If you can diagnosis from a blood sample then there is a high chance other animals to get through their leftovers on the soil. Am I wrong or missing something here?
