 Abstract 

The article analyses the impact of coronavirus infection on the development of Russian legislation in the field of biological safety. It is shown that the dependence of human survival on the state of protection from the effects of various pathogens is increasingly increasing due to global risk factors. The Federal Law of December 30, 2020 no. 492-FZ "On biological safety in the Russian Federation" has been analysed in detail. A critical analysis of a number of provisions, distinguished by their declarative nature, is presented. In particular, it emphasizes the absence in the law of additional justified restrictions on human and civil rights and freedoms, aimed at rapid and effective prevention of biological threats. The danger of the development of bioterrorism, which can manifest itself both in organized attacks and in aggression of lone individuals, is also indicated. The programmatic Russian documents defining the foundations of the state policy in the field of biosafety are studied. A general classification of global threats to modern biosafety is presented.
