Gain-of-Function Research
I would like to thank Lori Robertson and editorial staff for the article entitled “The Wuhan Lab and the Gain-of-Function Disagreement” [May 21]. It was the most complete, unbiased, and thorough article I have read on the subject. I sincerely appreciate the work that must have gone into preparing the piece.
