An archive of infectious bacteria, held at the Pittsburgh Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Pennsylvania, has apparently been destroyed, according to Nature. It looks like this might have happened a little while ago.
There is a piece in Clinical Infectious Diseases, referred to in Nature, which is here: http://www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/full/10.1086/528853. It includes a petition signed by 240 or so people, asking for an enquiry into how this happened.
