FYI — when you put a blanket stop on supply purchases by science labs, years of progress can disappear overnight. There are studies, for instance those involving complex cell culture, that require months of painstaking work per experimental run, and if you run out of culture media in the middle, you lose that entire run. If your lab uses some special fly or worm or whatever and the food that thing eats runs out, your entire lab’s work dies. This is a fucking disaster for NIH.
