Scientists smuggling deadly viruses

Don't take my word for it - Andersen, who was co-leading a mission in Sierra Leone from 2010-14 to fight bioterrorism, co-authors a June 2016 Cell paper, Roots not Parachutes, lamenting there was a lot of gung ho behaviour going on in the international science community at that precise time:

In some instances, researchers 'parachuted' into the affected countries, conducted research in isolation, and departed without creating sustainable infrastructure or a lasting impact. In several cases, international scientists with no established collaborations in West Africa allegedly transported samples back to their home countries for further research, in many cases without permission or knowledge of the affected nations (Heymann et al., 2016).

In other words: 

 illegal smuggling of Ebola by international scientists - in several cases

- according to Kristian Andersen, citing Heymann et al, allegedly

How can that even be written in an academic paper published by Cell - and not spark a criminal investigation?

International Scientists smuggling deadly Ebola viruses! - sorry, i can't get over that.

That's the hide-in-plain-sight behaviour that the real cohort of high risk individuals gets away with inside the international science scene.
