I didn't realize the magnitudes here

Remarkable statements
1. Under China biosafety regulations apparently novel viruses assumed to be relatively safe (BSL-2) until proven risky
2. US funded research follows laws of host country and not US biosafety regulations ... would seem to create poor incentives for scientists

Details on exact origins aside
There indeed is a "real scandal" here
Greater oversight, reporting & regulation is clearly needed
