Everyone knows about the Wuhan lab by now, but "Biological War" author @AnnieJacobsen reveals a far more terrifying truth: there are still THOUSANDS of high-containment biolabs operating across the globe RIGHT NOW: “There are 110 BSL-4 labs around the world. That's the maximum containment lab. And BSL-3, by the way, is just right below that. You can work with plague, hantavirus, anthrax, rabies in a BSL-3 lab. And there are 3,500 of those labs around the world. So, the idea of an accident is, you know, we're just right at that precipice. There was an existential sort of philosopher, Nick Bostrom, [who] spoke about AI maybe being human's last great invention. And I echo him, only I say that about genetic modification of germs. That could very well be 21st-century humans' last invention.”
