Health experts have given kudos to Beijing for being forthcoming with information, sharing the H7N9 virus' gene sequencing and samples with the World Health Organization's global research centers and providing timely updates of new infections and deaths.
When Hugh Martin, the chief executive of gene sequencing start-up Pacific Biosciences, discovered that he had multiple myeloma, he bent over backward to disclose the fact to his entire company in excruciating detail, and also to his investors, his business partners, and Fortune, which ran a story about the way he handled the decision.
If the difference in weight matches one particular amino acid, gene-sequencing can be bypassed altogether.
