The "major breach" did happen in 2021. However, the breach was not discovered until Aug 2023. This incident was not reported by officials until Dec 9, 2024. It's not old news, but officials believe there's no risk to the public. No need to panic, just viruses getting lost. https://gizmodo.com/australian-virus-lab-loses-track-of-hundreds-of-deadly-germs-in-major-biosecurity-breach-2000536574

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1866583129106035022

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
