Looks like I'm not the only one who voices concern.
But science.org must be anti-science as well then, huh??
No.
They are quite pro-science, talking about the serious issues involved in lab safety.
You are saying no one should study vaccines and also "Uh oh, it's the Chinese".
Hell, you even posted this as if it offered some kind of evidence for SARS-CoV-2 escaping from the lab at Wuhan
For those of you who still dont believe Covid got away from the Wuhan lab, have a look what another Chinese lab is currently working on.
I mean, if you were seriously concerned and thought this science.org article supported you, the fact your original post was about how to make things safer and avoid needing to work in BSL-4 conditions would be a good thing, given the concerns listed here.
Worldwide, there are 51 biosafety level-4 (BSL-4) labs in 27 countries, according to the Global BioLabs Report 2023, which was released on 16 March. These labs have the highest level of safety and security standards, where workers often wear protective suits. Fifty-one is roughly double the number that existed about a decade ago. Many BSL-4 labs were built in the wake of the 2001 anthrax attacks in the United States to develop biodefense countermeasures and in response to the 2003 multicountry outbreak of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS). Three-quarters of the BSL-4 labs are in urban areas, creating risk for more people if a pathogen escaped.
I assume at the very least you agree with this sensible approach?
The report urges the World Health Organization to strengthen guidance and individual countries to agree to audits by outside experts to ensure that their labs meet international standards.
