Russia is claimed to spy the researchers of the vaccine of COVID-19
So are those spies Russians or just operate from the Russian territory? The thing that not mentioned is what kind of spying methodology used, but if the used method is hacking, the thing is that the server, what is used in that kind of operation, is located in Russia. And that means that the operators of that server can be everywhere. The reason why vaccine research is under surveillance is that this kind of data can be used for commercial purposes.
The medical companies can get benefit if they can surround the expensive research processes by using industrial spying, and the thing is that the research data of the vaccines can be sold to black marketing. But the thing is that making the vaccines is universal data. If some vaccine is made against the COVID-19. The same data can be used in the creation of vaccines against other viruses. And that makes COVID-19 very problematic thing. In real life, there are nations, that have an offensive biological weapons program.
When we are seeing the biological weapons, creating that kind of weapons is easy. The thing that the researchers must make is to put the organisms to the grenade or some other delivery system and start to deliver it. Then the organism would just deliver on the enemy side. But the problem is to protect their troops against the biological weapon. The answer is the vaccine. The organisms that are delivered to the battle area are problematic because they can cause infections a long time after exposing some areas with the viruses or bacteria.
The biological weapons can be created by governmental or greedy private actors for clearing the jungles from the natives away from disturbing their dirty business.
The problem of biological weapons is that they are effective. Every organism in the wrong place is a biological weapon. And the people like native Indians in the Amazonas can be targets of that kind of weapons, what are made by some drug cartels or other illegal actors for clearing those people away from their business.
So how fast that kind of weapon can kill the target? In the Alistair MacLean book "The Satan Bug" the biological weapon kills a person in seconds. in real life, artificial biological weapons like retroviruses, which can transform cells into another can change the skin cells to create poisons like botulism. And if we are thinking about genetically manipulated bacteria, those bacteria can turn to create things like cobra-poison.
The thing is that if the researchers would connect the genomes of the cancer cells to the viruses, that kind of genetic manipulation would make it possible to make viruses what can turn a person in liquid in a couple of minutes. And that means that the biological weapons are still a big threat. Even if the superpowers are disbanded their own biological weapon research programs, there are smaller countries, that might feel that kind of weapons very useful tools. There are also private actors, who are greedy people.
