Not enough disagreement in the transcripts to form camps. These are the positions taken by people with demonstrated expertise on this topic first, then by how many people heard them on it, then by VoiceRank.
Biological weapons pose an existential threat because modern genetic modification allows pathogens to become more virulent, transmissible, and resistant to medical countermeasures.
“In truth, that's actually not true because think about what you can do with genetic modification. Make it more virilent, more transmissible. >> Yes. and make it defeat existing vaccines and antibiotics.”

Gain of function research is dangerous because it requires the creation of lethal pathogens in order to ostensibly study them.
“Well, that's a catch 22. That's incredibly dangerous. Like, we have to actually make a weapon to be able to defeat a weapon.”
