🧵You can own the Future of Tomorrow Today.

I have heard many people try to call this crash in biotech the end of the #Biotechnology sector. A sector that has been around for decades. One of the most necessary sectors in the entire market.
1/ Here I am going to lay out for you the opposite case. I have been investing in tech and biotech for 27 years. I have seen so much technology that excites me about the future, and I see it today.
2/ The biggest question I always get in biotech investing is when will we run out of things to discover or great new technologies to invent. I my response is we will never run out until we cure every disease.

The US Govt just announced and EO for advancing #biotechnology and #biomanufacturing for a #Sustainable , safe and secure #bioeconomy.
There are 11 areas they will be looking to fund and develop within this niche.
Read the full article here - whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/…
Here is a quick summary:
1) Coordinate investment in key R&D areas to further societal goals
2)Foster a biological data ecosystem, while adhering to principles of security, privacy, and responsible conduct of research
3) Expand domestic #biomanufacturing production capacity and processes, including #piloting and #prototyping efforts to accelerate the translation of basic research results into practice
4) Boost #sustainable #biomass production

When I look at $DNA, I see 2 companies with the #Synbio side and the #Biosecurity. I know many people dismiss the biosecurity which is over 50% of the current revenues. They mostly come from Covid screening. You got to think that a cut in funding will impact these sales.
In the long term, I think biosecurity is a key strategy as $DNA is one of the only companies working on solutions to a problem that is being completely ignored. The biggest threat to the global economy is now bioterrorism.
Although Biosecurity revenues in the near term might come under pressure, I think the need for them will grow over time. Not for just monitoring infectious disease, but as a security measure to our way of life.

🧵 Global catastrophic and existential risks: the weightiest complex phenomena?

"Our job is to think about how humanity can have a happy ending...about how GOOD it can be."

- @anderssandberg of @FHIOxford speaking at SFI today:


#AIEthics #Biosecurity
"The idea that humanity actually *could* go extinct required a lot of ideas to come together. First you needed to know that species go extinct. This wasn't clear until [the discovery of fossil Mastodons]."
- @anderssandberg of @FHIOxford at SFI today:

"It's not just that the end of the world could be caused by a bad political decision. In principle, the *right* political decision or technology could *avert* these risks. In the 19th C, it was a considered merely a matter of natural causes."

So many stories on reaching vaccine herd immunity! But there's a massive dilemma. Here's a 🧵on what I mean...

About 50 countries have fewer than one nurse per 1000 people. Israel has 6x that rate. UK has 10x. US has 15x. Belgium has 20x. Guess which countries want it all?
Have you seen what 1 nurse/1000 looks like?

Picture people hurt in car accidents who die by the road when wounds could have been stemmed; women dying in childbirth; untreated diabetes; children dying from infected wounds, burns, stomachs. A lack of healthcare is palpable.
What do most countries few nurses have in common?

Many are former colonies, where colonizers subsidized just enough medical care to ensure that people were healthy enough for labor, but they didn't invest in national health systems. Slave traders did less.

Here's a neatly threaded "oh fuck no" of my response to the @nymag's cover story of irresponsibility, asking "but what if" nCov2019 really was a lab escape.

Protip, @nymag: leave What If to Marvel. #bioethics #gof #durc #biosecurity #biosafety #COVID19 nymag.com/intelligencer/…
Seems @nymag wanted to get “most irresponsible article of 2021” locked up early. Tho is beyond irresponsible; it’s an admitted flight of fancy ignoring the work of multiple scientists carefully explaining, repeatedly, as to why #covid19 is not a lab escape. #durc #gof #biorisk
The odds, as #durc and #gof expert @neva9257 has repeatedly explained, are pretty good, given that China is where most of the the bats natively live. “Oh no, what are the chances of bat diseases originating in places with bats?!” 🙄🙄🙄

Thread; biosecurity is one of the most practical solutions to improving the health of the animals on your farm and thus reducing the need for antibiotics #EAAD2020 #EuropeanAntibioticAwarenessDay #WAAW2020 #AMR Image
Biosecurity refers to practical measures to prevent an infection entering a farm, within a farm, and within an area/region. Healthy animals have improved welfare, improved efficiency and improved productivity. Biosecurity is cost effective! #EAAD2020 #WAAW2020 Image
Biosecurity doesn’t start on your farm, but at your country’s borders. These are my shoes being disinfected by @agriculture_ie at @DublinAirport after being on an Italian pig farm. Did you know if you’re in contact with livestock abroad you must declare this at our borders? #EAAW Image

Thread.

No longer is it necessary to pay attention to my 2019-2020 ramblings/warnings of a global economic reset. Instead, as of June 3, 2020, you can now hear it directly from the source: the World Economic Forum (#WEF).

1/
It's not going to be the "brilliance of experts" that truly makes a difference right now to slow #COVID19.

It is going to be the actions of "regular" every day people becoming "experts" in the things we need most.

Read.
2/ Over the last year, I led the American Medical Association's @JournalofEthics issue on the ethics of pandemic response.

We focused on #Ebola, but ended up covering so many topics #journalism #anthropology #law #biosecurity #mentalhealth #epi etc

journalofethics.ama-assn.org/issue/culture-…
3/ If there is anything I learned in leading that effort, it was that there is no single epidemic "expert".

Not only do epidemics require working together across so many academic sectors; they require it across societies at all levels.

Everyone matters.

Alright #biosecurity folks, let's talk about this article here. For reference: I was at the meeting the author mentions. I won't note other members because it was under Chatham House Rule. [THREAD] hindustantimes.com/analysis/the-w…
Let's start with the claims. First: Insect Allies does not violate the letter or spirit of the BTWC. Any more than, say, resistance into antimicrobial resistance does.

Also - the proposed research of Insect Allies does not work in nearly as sci-fi terms as the author describes.
And the author, to be clear, should know that, since the Insect Allies PI who informed me, informed him *at the same time.*

That requires the author to engage in some next-level conspiratorial thinking to represent Insect Allies this way. Which is bad for #biosecurity
