> SecureBio’s co-founder, Kevin Esvelt, a biologist at MIT, says the nonprofit is avoiding use of its Future Fund grant money for now, except to pay the salaries of the three newly hired people. “We don’t think it is right that anyone should lose their jobs over a financial calamity totally unrelated to the excellent work they are doing,” Esvelt says.
All this discussion about weather the scientists should vet or not is irrelevant when they have 100% certain proof that the donated money they are spending is stolen, and they are keeping on using it... If you don't want people to lose their jobs, take a loan and find alternative funding, don't keep on using stolen funds for for goodness sake.
