Infectious: Stay Away

"Infectious: Stay Away" is an exhibition at the Science Gallery, Dublin. From the official page:
THE INFECTION HAS TAKEN HOLD. Nearly 30,000 individuals have already been exposed to the INFECTIOUS exhibition in the Science Gallery. If you are brave enough to enter the containment zone on Pearse Street you are advised to wear protective clothing. INFECTIOUS is a major new exhibition exploring mechanisms of contagion and strategies of containment through science and art including a live epidemic simulation, an opportunity to have your DNA swabbed from your cheek and analysed and to get up close and intimate with a Petri dish as you cultivate the bacteria from your lips in our Kiss Culture experiment.

This seems like a good excuse to visit Dublin...
