A comment on The FBI investigating hacking of Covid research by “PRC-affiliated cyber actors”. Parent comment
Are you aware that there are protocols in medical research against this?
Publishing research in an ongoing basis will taint the results (placebo effects etc).
There are blackout periods etc. just to make sure that the analysis is valid and not tainted.
Also a lot of research has lag time. Experiments can take a lot of time.
There is also a hidden assumption China is hacking for the greater good.
