LOS ANGELES–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#COVID19<\/a>–A Washington Post investigation<\/a> has revealed an ambitious effort by China to expand its biotechnology sector significantly, with sometimes controversial research, to keep up with (or overtake) the U.S. and other Western powers while failing to ensure adequate safety measures kept pace. AIDS Healthcare Foundation (AHF) urges China or any nation conducting research with dangerous, highly-infectious pathogens to ensure the utmost security and oversight measures are implemented beforehand.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cThe news of China\u2019s move to dramatically increase its biotech sector, including genetic engineering, without first ensuring ample security measures is beyond worrisome \u2013 it\u2019s irresponsible and potentially endangers everyone worldwide,\u201d said Dr. Adele Schwartz Benzaken, AHF Senior Global Medical Director. \u201cWe implore China to do the right thing by ensuring an adequate portion of the billions of dollars it\u2019s putting into increased laboratories, research, and experimental medicines goes to commensurate security that will bolster defenses against serious lab accidents \u2013 like the leaked bacteria that cause brucellosis in 2019 in Lanzhou and potentially SARS-CoV-2 in Wuhan the same year, which remains to be seen. The world cannot afford another pandemic unleashed upon it.\u201d<\/p>\n
