It's not that easy to do in many cases. The human manipulation is often infecting cells in a lab rather than entering a sequence in a computer and synthesising it.

However making it a regulation to keep samples and publish sequences would probably make sense.

Ok. Perhaps we should stop making viruses until we are more technologically capable then.

Well, yeah. People have argued in favour including Fauci famously but I think the dangers likely outweigh the benefits.
