I have a very nuacaed perspective when it comes to Gain of Function. I think GoF should be prohibited when it comes to the usual suspects (basically the zoonotic crew, anyone connected with EcoHealth, and this small group of corrupted, self-absorbed virologists).
But the West needs dual use research, otherwise China will just take over... they are already ahead of us IMO.
So if it didn’t work the first time, we’re going to give it another try now!
"NEVAH GIVE UP"
Unbelievable. I've been severely underestimating the level of stupidity among the bureaucrats.

And somehow this is/will branded as progress... "incredible" times in the most pure sense of the word [insert shrug unicode characters here]
Here you go, Pablo:
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Copy and paste to save it for the next bit of "incredible" times you see (probably tomorrow). :-D
Thank you for the shrug

My sarcasm is more oriented to the legislation than to the science.
Science/progress is a never ending debate imo
But I understand if you want to control the world, you cant fall behind, even if it is only to reach a "Cold War status situation"
