I was sent this link and for those who want to learn more about Covid19 and the research that is being carried out there is a lot of information in this interview.
I realize that Collins' Christianity is brought into this but obviously just ignore that part, if you like. The bulk of the interview is about his expert assessment of the virus and what is being done about it. He also debunks the conspiracy theory that this came out of a lab in Wuhan.
Here re Collins' background from wiki.
quote:
Francis Sellers Collins is an American physician-geneticist who discovered the genes associated with a number of diseases and led the Human Genome Project. He is director of the National Institutes of Health in Bethesda, Maryland, United States.
The first 6:30 is introductions etc. I'd recommend skipping that part.
Science & Faith in Pandemic Times, with Francis Collins

He has told you, O man, what is good ; And what does the LORD require of you But to do justice, to love kindness, And to walk humbly with your God.

Thomas Lovejoy on cause of virus
Here is a link to an article concerning the cause of the current outbreak, as well as what needs to be done to prevent another outbreak in the future and the cost of doing that.
We did it to ourselves
