Three people died/disappeared. The laboratory was destroyed and the Italian government ensured it would never be rebuilt. Following the incident, 107 countries outlawed VX. VXers were forced "underground" in most places.

I take the view that Mazimooni was a scientific genius with poor leadership skills. The lab assistant should not have been tasked with calibrating general rotationally symmetric quadric mirrors. Especially not the hyperbolic, parabolic and elliptical mirrors.

Downvote me to hell, but I take the side that Mazimooni did more harm than good to VX.
