https://twitter.com/doctorow/status/1729130520351781158As I’ve stated before many times, research on emerging pathogens presents myriad risks. But the risks can be mitigated and this research is essential for fighting the pandemics of tomorrow.
https://twitter.com/katherineeban/status/1726931133160391026Like this description of Ebola virus disease from Kevin Esvelt, an “evolutionary sculptor” who has never set foot in a containment lab and has published zero papers on the topic.

Since then, it’s been clear that there were concerted efforts to conceal the extent of the early outbreak in Wuhan.

However, although CAST/EiJ mice typically get very sick & may die from MPXV infection, they don't fully recapitulate human mpox disease.

But filovirus outbreaks occurring in these circumstances can be difficult to control. A lot of people will die in Equatorial Guinea & in neighboring countries if it crosses the border.
