Original Note:
The research involved mouse adaption. SARS-CoV-2 did not have mouse-adapted sequences in its initial outbreak. At the time of the grant award, the NIH had a moratorium on GoF research. This research is unrelated to SARS-CoV-2. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8373617/ https://twitter.com/stuartjdneil/status/1417770207477633029
