There certainly was a structure. They reviewed it, responded, and then asked for responses from me, and then I gave those responses.

So in, was it, October 2014, the Obama administration put out the pause. The pause effectively was set up two ways. One way was that if a grant was submitted that had the potential for gain-of-function research it would be reviewed before they funded it. And the second class was if you were already doing P3, or research that might fall under the category, you had the option to either pause it voluntarily or continue it. And in the case of SHC014-WIV work, we paused it voluntarily. The third category was waivers. And so the NIH approved three groups, to my knowledge, to continue to develop a MERS coronavirus mouse model for countermeasured studies.

I think one group was out of the University of Utah. I can't remember the fellow's name.

I don't know about their exemptions. Mine was an individualized exemption. I don't know what theirs were. I didn't receive their paperwork.
