Chinese scientists in Beijing have crafted a coronavirus variant called GX_P2V that kills humanized mice 100% of the time, largely with late-stage brain infections. The scientists indicated their mutant virus "underscores a spillover risk of GX_P2V into humans."
The study, regarded as pointless and dangerous by Western experts, comes amidst chatter by global elites about "Disease X," a hypothetical pestilence more lethal than COVID-19, and just days after a British report revealed lab leaks of deadly pathogens occurred frequently, even in labs with ostensibly better standards than those observed in China.
The preprint of the study, published earlier this month in BioRxiv, details how coronaviruses allegedly derived from the scaly anteaters known as pangolins ahead of the COVID-19 pandemic were grown in a lab in 2017 and 2020, then tested on mice.
The researchers, including a former Chinese military biosecurity expert, cloned a mutant version of the 2017 strain, which was initially able to infect both golden hamsters and mutant mice. The mice had been humanized — altered to express human ACE2, the receptor used by SARS-CoV to gain entry into human cells.
Did we help pay for this one also.
