Interesting the bag says Do Not Burn.

I'm still not getting why they need the pound of flesh unless it was all a setup for Digger #2 to wind up with Glanders somehow.

Depending on the disease and the state of the body it's sometimes better to just toss them in an airtight coffin because incineration means getting more hospital staff involved and even more people in the same room as an infected corpse

Two decades out, there's no guarantee anyone is going to remember why there is a dead guy buried in the backyard.

Pretty sure it was to get a Glanders sample.

"Stand back, Ottawan ruffian, or face my lumens!"
It wasn't Glanders he was trying to move when he infected himself - it was Lassa. Lassa's a hemorrhagic fever. It's not quite as deadly as Ebola, but it's still medically significant, and it was implied that these particular virus strains were engineered, like the 'Super Glanders' was.

If cleansing fire won't kill the Lassa Virus then I get why the warning is appropriate

Kind of a weak start tbh. The "whoops im clumsy and got infected" thing felt like it shoulda come from some lovely zombie movie not The Americans. Also yeah 7 minutes watching people dig what was that about. They really needed to pad out their premier that badly?

Not sure whats up with the new guy theyre working on. Hes an advisor on agriculture to the US but seemed like a big nobody back home who could barely get food.

As mentioned, William is probably the only 'field test' of the virus apart from lab rats/bunnies. His sample is valuable.

As shown at the start of the episode, basically nobody can get food in the USSR, they're in the middle of a famine. Even the KGB staff were 'joking' about it. Hell, Olegs father is (the minister?) in the Ministry of Railways and I doubt their dinner was lavish.

The CIA extracted him from Russia so I expect food shortages will be the big thing this season.

Hans' clumsiness is consistent with when he accidentally showed his face to that guy he went to university with and then very sloppily murdered him to protect his identity.
