Engineering360: "Rapid Pipeline Can Create Antimicrobials in a Week"

"... Because of this, they challenged researchers to figure out how to make at least 1,000 doses of any known pathogen in a week. ..."

Um, no. Not quite right, as far as I can tell, and from what I read in the link....and what makes sense. They were challenging researchers to become rapid biowarfare commandos.

The challenge was to be able to "provide 1000s of doses of a potential antiviral or antibiotic within a week"....not the pathogen, a proposed treatment.
