    Well, that's natural origin process that either occurs through nature or natural evolutionary processes that might occur in cell cultures. They're really hard to tell apart.
  2. 2026-04-10 09:00 Christina Salazar open
    I'm not a scientist, so natural origin, to me genetically engineered or accidental release? And correct me.
  3. 2026-04-10 09:00 Ralph S. Baric open
    So accidental release would have fallen under the category of natural evolutionary processes in cell culture.
  4. 2026-04-10 09:00 Christina Salazar open
    That could have been adapted in the lab.
  5. 2026-04-10 09:00 Ralph S. Baric

  7. 2026-04-10 09:00 Ralph S. Baric open
    That's correct.
  8. 2026-04-10 09:00 Christina Salazar open
