High Consequence Bio Labs: Growing Risks and Lagging Governance
The Global Biolabs Initiative is proud to announce the launch of its new report and interactive map of BSL4 and BSL3+ labs. With the global expansion of BSL4/BSL3+ labs, gaps in biosecurity and biosafety legislation are widening. Since its inception in 2021, the Global Biolabs Initiative has tracked the growth of highest containment labs, identifying several key trends in where there is the greatest growth of BSL4/BSL3+ new construction, physical characteristics of the labs, and how the work is being done in the labs. The Global Biolabs Initiative has developed biorisk management scorecards to measure how well countries are addressing biosafety, biosecurity, and dual use research. The pace of BSL4/BSL3+ labs expansion is outpacing current biosafety and biosecurity regulations, and coordinated international action is needed to address increasing biorisks.
Dr Filippa Lentzos and Dr Gregory Koblentz will present the Global BioLabs report, highlighting key trends and recommendations. It will also feature a demo of the interactive map: globalbiolabs.org.

    Why the Pentagon collects and studies bats Bats are allegedly the reservoir hosts to the Ebola Virus , Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) and other deadly diseases. However, the precise ways these viruses are transmitted to humans are currently unknown. Numerous studies have been performed under the DTRA Cooperative Biological Engagement Program (CBEP) in a search for deadly pathogens of military importance in bats.  221 bats were euthanized at the Lugar Center for research purposes in 2014.   Bats have been blamed for the deadly Ebola outbreak in Africa (2014-2016). However, no conclusive evidence of exactly how the virus “jumped” to humans has ever been provided, which raises suspicions of intentional and not natural infection. Engineering deadly viruses is legal in the US MERS-CoV is thought to originate from bats and spread directly to humans and/or camels. However, like Ebola, the precise ways the virus spreads are unknown. 1,980 cases with 699 deaths were reported in 15 countries across the world (as of June 2017) caused by MERS-CoV.   3 to 4 out of every 10 patients reported with MERS have died (Source: WHO) MERS-CoV is one of the viruses that have been engineered by the US and studied by the Pentagon, as well as Influenza and SARS. Confirmation of this practice is Obama’s 2014 temporary ban on government funding for such “dual-use” research. The moratorium was lifted in 2017 and experiments have continued. Enhanced Potential Pandemic Pathogens (PPPs) experiments are legal in the US. Such experiments aim to increase the transmissibility and/or virulence of pathogens. Tularemia as Bioweapon??
