Haven't We Learned ANYTHING ???

Here is a mind-blowing report:

All life on Earth follows this rule: a combination of 64 DNA triplet codes, or “codons,” are translated into 20 amino acids.

But wait. The math doesn’t add up. Why wouldn’t 64 dedicated codons make 64 amino acids? The reason is redundancy. Life evolved so that multiple codons often make the same amino acid.

So what if we tap into those redundant “extra” codons of all living beings, and instead insert our own code?

A team at the University of Cambridge recently did just that. In a technological tour de force, they used CRISPR to replace over 18,000 codons with synthetic amino acids that don’t exist anywhere in the natural world. The result is a bacteria that’s virtually resistant to all viral infections - because it lacks the normal protein “door handles” that viruses need to infect the cell.

If they can create new life which is invincible, isn't it possible they'll create other forms of new life to which no humans have immunity and which no drug or vaccine would be able to control? Wouldn't that be one of the ultimate forms of biowarfare?

THIS is why we MUST determine what happened with SARS-CoV-2 ... where did it come from and how did it attack the human species. There should be NO research of the kind described in the above report until that riddle is solved and properly addressed. To do anything less is foolhardy in the extreme.
