Snippet: T he research goal in a number of laboratories is to make highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) viruses contagious to humans via respiratory aerosols. For instance, the H5N1 influenza virus has been made contagious to ferrets (1), the animal model often used as a proxy for humans.

Document: T he research goal in a number of laboratories is to make highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) viruses contagious to humans via respiratory aerosols. For instance, the H5N1 influenza virus has been made contagious to ferrets (1), the animal model often used as a proxy for humans. Concern over escape from a laboratory of a deadly human-contagious virus (e.g., influenza, severe acute respiratory syndrome [SARS] , and Middle East respiratory syndrome [MERS] viruses) prompted the U.S. Government to hold back funding for this research "until a robust and broad deliberative process (2) is completed that results in the adoption of a new USG gain-of-function research policy." This discussion is now under way in the United States and is to be completed in 2016.
