So... why exactly are we attacking NIH employees for the mistakes made by people living in Wuhan?
A sufficiently nefarious interpretation of events might even implicate China regardless of how much America pays them. It already happened in Russia with Biopreparat during the Cold War, no reason it wouldn't happen again.
The Chinese can impose their own consequences, I'm not opposed to it.
However, this is serious stuff, if accountability must be off the table we aren't ready as a civilization to mess with it. NIH did this under a "enhanced oversight" regime, the overseers need to be removed to start.
