    Oh no, they’re stealing private intellectual data in their selfish pursuit of… er, stopping pandemics…?

      Sure, but also knowing genetic sequence of ebola could be uaed to weaponize it also right? You have to have protocols. You can’t assume everyone has an altruistic vision, and leak data

          Sure. My stance is it and she may seem innocen; trying to help China with Ebola, but we don’t know what China might do with it–would they make a bioweapon?

          She may have been duped into sharing, or in China’s normal tactic: threaten your family to get cooperation.

          Her action of letting non cleared people into a secured lab is justifiable termination on its own.
