Proposed Changes to U.S. Policy on Potential Pandemic Pathogen Oversight and Implementation
ABSTRACT We propose here changes to the U.S. government policy on potential pandemic pathogen (PPP) oversight and implementation, emphasizing transparency of the review process and the content of the review, publication of the review in advance, responsible publication of enhanced PPP research, high...
