Gabbard's confirmmation as Directior is going to end the US conmtrolled and funded gain-if-function research in Ukraine bio-labs will be closed down ad=fter akk pathogens have been destroyed, A siminlar disaster as the gain-of- function researh in the Wuhan Lab that led to the Covi Pandemic has been avooded. Indeed a victory for mankind.
I’m all for eliminating gain of function research except in the most necessary and controlled circumstances. But it’s a bit like carbon reduction, little point in punishing yourself if others keep doing it. Anything the US does in this regard should be wrapped into a broader agreement signed by Russia, China, Iran etc as well.
Agree with you about that one. At thsis stae there are no such researcch done in Russia and I thik China learnt a bitter leasso from that Wuhan problem. Maybe one should lookat a lisy of countries where such research is banned.
By the way _ I see Phil Mickelson requessted that Dogrhuld also investigate California, Always thought the guy was a Dmocrat supporter. What do you think about that one?
