1. They will never revive mammoths.

2. Their plan isn’t to revive mammoths it’s to express mammoth-like genes in modern elephants (which…ethics?).

3. They just found some fluffy hair genes in mouse DNA and modified their genes to express them.

Donald Trump has ordered health agencies such as the FDA, CDC, and NIH to pause communications with the public until February 1st.

They are not allowed to give regulations, guidance, announcements, press releases, website posts, etc. until approved by a political appointee.
