Abstract
The Hungarian Biosafety Laboratory (BL) at the National Center for Epidemiology (NCE) was established in 2002 by reorganization of the previous poxvirus laboratory led by Elek Farkas. The BL was supported by both the EU project PHARE and the Hungarian government with the aim to strengthen Schengen borders. The official permission to set up our institution was granted by Hungarian authorities in June, 2006. This laboratory is the only high containment laboratory operating in Middle Europe.
