1. Richard Hatchett:

   Obviously the world is full of the wild type virus that this Astrazeneca vaccine is known to work against.

2. Anthony Fauci:

   The fact is, when you have a virus that has ability to transmit more efficiently than the wild type in the community, sooner or later by pure viral dynamics itself, it will become more dominant than the wild type.

3. Anthony Fauci:

   Clearly now its transmissibility appears to be greater than the wild type, this is a situation, the way it was in England where they had a B. 1.1.7 dominant, and then the [ B. 1. ] 617 took over. We can not let that happen in the United States.

4. George Dimopoulos:

   The problem is that these GM mutants have a fitness cost, current studies are addressing this issue, trying to find ways of making these mosquitoes as competitive as the wild type. One way of perhaps doing this is to inactivate the parasite-host factor, FREP1, in the adult female gut only, as opposed to the entire mosquito at all developmental stages. One can also integrate our strategy with a so-called gene-drive to more effectively drive the mutation into a mosquito population.
