EDITOR’S NOTE: As the internet becomes our economic, educational and social window to the world, six innovators that built this critical technology give their thoughts on our post-pandemic future.  These visionaries are part of the Marconi Society, a foundation that inspires and connects those creating new technology for a digitally inclusive world.

I hope that governments will realize that COVID-19 is a harbinger of biological warfare. To date, biowarfare has been inhibited by concern for exactly what is happening now: rapid unpredictable spread that might infect the launchers of the disease. The time for that view is over. The cost of bioengineering is declining. Groups who feel no responsibility for the welfare of large populations will be able to start experimenting. There will be a big window of vulnerability during which it will be easier to develop new pathogens than to develop cures or immunizations.
