Reporter viruses (GFP, NanoLuc®) enable high-throughput antiviral screening, but risk instability.
3 best practices:
1️⃣ Smaller reporters (NanoLuc) maintain stability
2️⃣ Cleavable fusions minimize attenuation
3️⃣ Sequence-verify to catch adaptation

Radons asks about noise.
Bell: Many millions will be spent on sound attenuation. Every generator will have its own sound attenuating chamber. There will be a berm & a sound attenuating fence around facility. #yqrcc
