Bills have been introduced in the House and Senate to bar “foreign adversary biotech companies of concern” from doing business with federally funded medical providers.
only from this article:
“BGI, which has stressed its private ownership, offers genetic testing kits and a popular prenatal screening test to detect Down syndrome”
“State subsidies have allowed BGI to offer genomic sequencing services at a highly competitive price that is attractive to U.S. researchers”
So these biotech companies, what exactly are they doing? All I’m getting is generic journo-speak about genetics and agriculture.
And why are they even “companies”?
Probably all kinds of stuff, GMOs, drugs, etc. Biotech is a huge industry nowadays.
