This needs boosting.
How we share data now, determines how prepared we are for tomorrow. That includes having access to *all* who need it (inccitizen scientists like Ryan Hisner) & being able to use it in dashboards & apps.
Having one place control it all - is dangerous.

#GISAID ruining science. This is a great shame.

covSPECTRUM, an invaluable tool, will continue to work with open data from the INSDC system (ENA, NCBI, DDBJ).

But historical data and data from many countries only feeding into GISAID will be unavailable.
