Good to hear there's a precedent for a deadly lab leak causing a change in the safety procedures used by virologists. Maybe the COVID-19 pandemic will convince virologists to ban gain-of-function research that enhances potential pandemic pathogens.

@jbkinney Which type of gain of function was exactly involved in Marburg in 1968? I am curious!
@EckerleIsabella @jbkinney Slight correction I think it was in 1967 not 1968... But yeah they weren't going gain of function. Also there isn't evidence of a lab leak for COVID-19 so 🤷
@henri_mourant @EckerleIsabella @jbkinney Police seem to think written down plans are evidence, how strange that you don't x.com/r_h_ebright/st…
