> Given the university’s response, this is clearly an institutional problem. The United States of America should not award them more grant money to study viruses in any capacity. I suspect that this could have happened at any institution. Bureaucracy is the same everywhere. There are always weak links, misjudgments, selfishness, ass-covering. IMO this is clearly a human problem. There's not a better institution. Nobody can be trusted with this dangerous research.
