I can't explain what it feels like:
+ to know what this news means if it all comes to pass
+ remember that "if it comes to pass" is NOT a foregone conclusion
+ also know how much damage is happening this second due to it
And then try to convey it, succinctly, w/emotional impact & technical accuracy

I'm going to put aside the scientific prospects just now - all the best to them.
HOWEVER: can you even imagine if the previous director of NIAID had received $500 million for a project from his lab while everything else was being cut? It would be the scandal of the century. Just a Thursday now.
