Governments do not have controls to stop terrorists accessing labs and posing a biological threat.
The international controls on centres where dangerous viruses are created and studied have been shown to be disturbingly weak.
The majority are involved in medical research, but that often involves holding and testing viruses like Covid-19. And some are in countries like Iran, Syria, and North Korea, where the motives of the ruling power are regarded with nervousness by much of the outside world. The control of biological research and weaponry is less rigorous. The Biological Weapons Convention , which effectively bans biological and toxin weapons, came into force in 1975. But fewer countries belong to the BWC, and it has never been possible to agree a proper verification regime to make sure members comply with its full terms.
