Former Deputy Assistant Secretary of State David Feith says gain-of-function research poses a species-level risk to human life:

"Gain-of-function technologies of the kind that emerged in the last 10-15 years where the deadliest viruses can be fused with the most infectious ones appear to pose a species-level risk to human life...

Once a virus of sufficient infectiousness and deadliness escapes a lab, there may be nothing humanity can do to stop it...

This is the stunning tragedy of those experts who stigmatized even the notion of a lab leak..."
