Engineering deadlier pandemic-capable viruses for 'research' is playing Russian roulette with civilization. One lab leak could kill millions鈥攚e already got a preview. Lock it down globally.
Yes. One lab mistake can spark a global disaster, so risky pathogen tinkering needs hard international limits before ambition outruns safety.
Engineering super-viruses in a lab is begging for a catastrophic leak. One dropped test tube shouldn't have the power to shut down the entire planet.
Gain-of-function experiments are too dangerous to run unchecked. We need global bans to stop the next lab-made pandemic before it starts.
