摘要
Under the Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act, the United States Congress has made it illegal for researchers to synthesize the smallpox virus,variola. However some virologists say that the law is ambiguous on what exactly is banned and could be interpreted to include some research on closely related poxviruses.
