Recent research conducted by Boston University scientists involving a hybrid version of the COVID-19 virus is causing a stir in the scientific community. The work seemingly caught one of the research’s primary funding sources off guard, and has generated headlines alleging that the researchers created a more lethal version of COVID-19.
A paper containing this research was published online Friday. This is a preprint, however, meaning that it has not yet been peer-reviewed.
This work, conducted at BU’s National Emerging Infectious Diseases Laboratories, revolves around the creation of a chimeric, or hybrid virus.
So we're fucking around with this virus in Boston and our government (who is paying for this shit with money it took from us or borrowed in our name) doesn't know exactly what is going on.
Sounds like our relationship with the Wuhan Institute of Virology. 🙄

yes, scientists experiment with viruses. What's your problem with that?

"This research is reportedly causing friction between the scientists conducting it and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, which helped fund the work. Director of NIAID’s Division of Microbiology and Infectious Diseases Emily Erbelding told STAT that the BU group’s original grant applications did not clarify that this specific work would be done. The BU researchers also did not make clear in their progress reports to NIAID that their experiments could enhance a pathogen of pandemic potential, STAT reported."
What's theirs? ^

Wuhan Institute of Virology - the only institute in the world collecting bat coronavirus and engineering them to make them contagious to humans in order to study likely origins of the 1918 "Spanish Flu". Papers in the Lancet + concerns were voiced prior to the outbreak in the Wuhan Wet Market about 15 kilometres away from the Institute. Also received funding from the Americans because the work was considered to risky to get past the regulator if performed in a US lab. We know that this all became politicised because the mainstream media wanted another stick to beat Donald Trump with.

Yup. Covid became politicized. Which means science did too. That's never good science.

More about the Lancet report.
Basically we don't know where it came from and we do a shitty job keeping an eye on these laboratories doing this shit.
