What was the clinical reasoning behind finding it necessary to pursue this gain-of-function?
You don't just ask for millions/billions to support bio-weapons programs, right?

I thought I read about some altruistic rationale that it would further studies on future potential/likely outbreaks.
Don't remember where I saw that.

you can come up with conspiracy theories, but i honestly kinda doubt this was meant to be some bioweapon.

I think israel was genuinely just concerned about this disease in general and how it could possibly mutate.

the scandal, i suppose, is why israel can research stuff that really has no use outside of israel...not that im surprised by that.
