Ladies and gentlemen, a significant development has taken
place in the area of research concerning lethal pathogens in the US as of late.
Specifically, a federal ban prohibiting research on dangerous pathogens such as
SARS has been lifted. SARS, coronavirus that caused an outbreak in 2004 in 29
countries, resulted in 8,096 reported infections where 774 deaths related to
SARS were recorded according to the CDC. Viruses such as Ebola are also fair game for
research in laboratories now, where it has been discussed that creation of an
airborne Ebola strain could possibly aid in preventing a pandemic. Research
studies were intentional mutations of viruses are induced for the sake of
finding a cure new versions of these pathogenic viruses are now in the horizon.
In fact, all viruses that could potentially cause a pandemic are fair game from
the uplifting of this federal ban.
It seems a little counterintuitive correct? Well, assuming
that the laboratories adequately maintain an environment with highly trained personnel
that will place an emphasis on preventing the escape of these novel strains
from the laboratory, it would be helpful to know how bioterrorists could
potentially change a lethal virus in their attempts to create a pandemic. If we
created these new lethal strains first, we would be able to create vaccines or
treatments for these non-existent strains currently in the globe, in case of
their introduction into the globe, once again through bioterrorism (or through
an outbreak of the pathogen from a lab). We would thus be ahead of the bioterrorists
and would thus be safer. That is what the people on top believe, but I have my
reservations, as I know others do. In 2014, the CDC accidentally exposed its
workers to anthrax, and accidently sent a dangerous flu virus strain, instead of
a benign one to a laboratory. This was
the same year that all federal funding was halted towards making dangerous
viruses more lethal for our protection.
Is this plainly a bad idea, or is this a justified
preventative measure? I can’t really seem to decide, but one thing I’ve learned
throughout my life is that you don’t just play with fire and expect to come out
unscathed, eventually someone is bound to get burned. For the sake of the
safety of individuals here in the US, I hope human error is not the cause of
the introduction of a new lethal strain here in the US. On the other side of
the coin, if a bioterrorism group decides to hit us with a modified strain of a
lethal virus such as SARS, we might be ready to thwart their efforts, saving
thousands of lives in the process.
Which side do you lean to?

A world is enough for a wise. I'm SEN.BUKA MORRIS from DENMARK.I was a Herpes patient for 7years ,i suffered a great lost in applying medical treatment to get cure from the virus.
