Why won't UNC disclose details of genetic modifications to the SARS-associated coronavirus in this 2016 BSL-3 lab incident? What's the virus description under this redaction in records sent to me + @JessicaEBlake in response to our records request? propublica.org/article/near-m… #FOIA 
The NIH Guidelines require labs that work with genetically modified viruses and bacteria to make public certain safety records -- including incident reports. It's a condition of their federal research funding. osp.od.nih.gov/wp-content/upl…
In November 2015, UNC scientists published research detailing creation of a hybrid coronavirus with potential to infect people. Their experiments involved inserting part of a coronavirus called SHC014-CoV found in Chinese horseshoe bats into a SARS virus. nature.com/articles/nm.39…
Did the 2016 mouse-bite incident in our @propublica article involve a SARS-like chimera virus like the one detailed in UNC's 2015 research? The university won't say.
