SAN DIEGO (KGTV) The announcement of $1.75 billion in federal funding has rapidly expanded efforts to sequence genetic information from COVID-19 viral samples in search of troublesome variants, but scientists say more work needs to be done to address a key limitation in the nation’s early warning system.
Across the country, labs are now sequencing about 35,000 viral samples each week, or about 10 percent of all confirmed cases, according to Mary Lee Watts of the American Society for Microbiology. ....

When COVID-19 exploded onto the world stage, neither the United States nor the rest of the world was ready. Thanks to extraordinary research and development efforts, multiple vaccines are now available. Experts warn, however, that COVID-19 is far from the last pandemic. “World populations, including Americans, will remain vulnerable to new outbreaks of infectious diseases” states the recent Annual Threat Assessment of the U.S. Intelligence Community. But we can, however, defeat the next pandemic in advance by taking four critical steps.
First, the federal government needs to lead “moonshot” research and development efforts directed to countering future pandemics. Federal investment in ambitious science, from space exploration to the internet, has long been a driving force of U.S. leadership. While much of the underlying research for the novel mRNA vaccines was undertaken by Dr. Katalin Karikó and Dr. Drew Weissman, developmental efforts research ....
