#geneticallyengineered animals: According to the European Food Safety Authority @EFSA there are no new risks associated with the use of #newgeneticengineering techniques (#NGT).
In contrast, a fullness of scientific publications show that #CRISPR & Co. are likely to result in specific risks and additional animal suffering.

Claim that #Chinese #scientists created 100% fatal #COVID19strain misconstrues study’s findings
Researchers in #China recently released a study, which has not been peer-reviewed, that tested the #GX_P2V #coronavirus on #geneticallyengineered mice. Although #GXP2V belongs to the coronavirus family, it did not originate from #SARS-CoV-2, which causes #COVID19.
In light of new findings on #environmentalrisks of #geneticallyengineered plants in Europe, Testbiotech is calling on #Bayer and the @EU_Commission to end the cultivation of transgenic maize MON810 in Spain and Portugal.
RT by @MartinHaeusling: (1/2) #geneticallyengineered tomatoes on the shelves:
The first #CRISPR tomatoes are on the shelves in Japan. Neither the benefits nor the risks have been investigated in detail. Consumption is not recommended for pregnant women.

If #newgeneticengineering (#NewGE) is deregulated in Europe as proposed by the @EU_Commission such products could soon be on the shelves here too – without #riskassessment and without labeling.

Testbiotech presents a comprehensive analysis of the deregulation proposal as part of the @EU_Commission's consultation.
In short: The technical potential, but also the technical shortcomings of tools such as #CRISPR/Cas make it necessary that all #geneticallyengineered organisms continue to be subject to an in-depth #riskassessment in the future.

The proposol of the @EU_Commission to largely deregulate #newgeneticengineering goes against science, the #precautionaryprinciple and the protection of health and the environment.
The abolition of #labelling & #riskassessment of #geneticallyengineered products on the basis of arbitrary, unclear criteria that are difficult to interpret in detail carries the risk of shaking trust in the institutions of the EU.

A national #biodiversity group says #Canada needs to keep #GeneticallyEngineered #animals out of the #wild , after the #federal #government recently rejected several attempts to strengthen its existing laws.
For me, the best part of this #science-based takedown of the "#TransWomen all have an unfair advantage by default" lie is the conclusion where #Sabine points out that the corrupt nature of #sports will inevitably lead to #GeneticallyEngineered #athletes rendering all sports #competitions (and the controversy over trans athletes) irrelevant.
