During this live stream, in plain English, I will be doing a deep dive into the paper that Rand Paul claims is Gain of Function (GoF) research done in Wuhan China.

I will be answering questions from viewers.

I will also give a quick overview of the history of GoF virology research, why we do it, what types were temporarily banned, why it's controversial, and why some people claim that GoF research is essential.

Before deciding if it's worth listening to me for an hour on live YouTube, watch these two videos I recently made:
