I saw on the news tonight where a lab in Pittsburgh got the ok for them to have some of the corona virus. I saw a while back where they had asked for it. I thought at the time the same thing I still think. It does not make sense to take the virus to an area it is not in yet to " TRY TO DEVELOP A VACCINE " what they should do is take the people that want to work on it all to a lab somewhere it is already reached. I do not care how careful they think they are being accidents can happen. Did we learn nothing from the mess that was made when the killer bees were taken to a different country to try to mate them with the local honey bees and one little mistake the removal of the queen excluder allowed them to get out and swarm over 2 continents they were not native to?
All it would take is 1 little mistake in the handling procedures of this virus and it could be spread to an area that may never of had it if it had not been for the well intention ed scientists making a mistake. My thoughts are there is an ocean between us and the hot spot for the virus so once we contain the few out breaks we have we could prevent it from spreading all over the country.
It is not that I do not think the research should be done it is just I would feel better if it were all done in a well contained place to minimize the chance of spreading it to places it has not reached yet.
Yea yea I know I worry about a lot of things that may never happen, but why take the chance when it is not necessary?
