Evidence suggests that fast-spreading Omicron Covid variant came from a lab
American Thinker ^ | 26 Mar, 2022 | Thomas Lifson

In an exclusive report, Sharyl Attkisson presents evidence that is causing scientists to suspect that the Omicron variant of Covid, currently causing cases to spike all over the world, and China to lockdown major cities, is not the product of normal viral evolution, but instead came from a lab.

…some scientists examining the virus have concluded “vast” genetic mutations that likely occurred in a lab setting are what makes Omicron spread so quickly.

Omicron was first detected in Botswana, South Africa, reported to have been brought by a foreign delegation from a country officials will not identify, making it more difficult for outside observers to track its origin.

To many scientists, the genetic differences that made Omicron so quickly transmissible caused it to immediately stand out as unlikely to be a result of a natural evolution. Some note the “rapid accumulation of mutations in the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant that enabled its outbreak.”

“There was a large number of mutations in this variant—many more than we would expect from the normal evolution of this virus,” said virologist Andrew Pekosz, Professor of Molecular Microbiology and Immunology at the Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health. “Importantly, many mutations occurred in the spike protein—the protein the virus uses to bind to and enter cells—which is the target of the vaccine.”

Really makes you think someone is doing a massive test run.

Didn’t omnicron knock out the more lethal delta variant?

Omicron was released to end the pandemic which was created.

"The new “MidTerm” variant."

Yes.. We must elect democrats, they will save us, we can get more boosters and free stuff (money).

I heard several people last weekend call it omnicron, and when I told them it was called omicron, they looked stunned. I can’t figure out why people are calling it omnicron. Is that on purpose? These people were all convinced that’s the real name of it. Ideas?

“Who would benefit and which country has the ability to release it in Africa?”

Maybe the people who want to reduce world population?

Oh, and I guess Omni means all or everything, right? So maybe they are thinking this version is everywhere. They are so scared of it. Omnicron. Haha.

"I think I’ll drop Putin a thank you note for taking out all those Ukrainian bio weapons labs."

You joke, but I'm really getting PO'ed when I read about our own government running bioweapon labs and lying about it.

And what's even worse, I'm beginning to believe the "Greenies" may be planning to USE the crap (COVID is just a test) on the world as population control for the sake of their god, "Global Warming".. (spit)

Wait til Xi goes into Taiwan and discovers 6-8 US labs there. 😣

If you want to reduce the population, without getting killed yourself, you would not release a truly dangerous virus. You would instead trick people into taking the poison directly. Whatever reduction you are striving for can be controlled by the % of poisoned vax. That is why there is such a push for everybody to get vaxed. I don’t think they are trying to choose who survives or dies. Simply the desired number.

Yet she can’t name a single one who says that on the record.

In her article the lab theory is all from unnamed, anonymous “scientists”.

Putting the poison in the vaccine means that a large number of vaccine production sites have to cooperate. Plus, there are quite a few different vaccines produced by multiple countries. It would require a lot of really effective organization and discipline across multiple uncooperative countries. I doubt that such organization is feasible - we don’t have any other organizations that competent.

Also, when a significant percent of vaccinated people start dying or having some other health condition, such as sterility, it becomes obvious what is happening. This then leads to revolution and a hunting down of the perpetrators - not exactly what they are looking for.

On the other hand, a more lethal variant such that the vaccinated survive and the unvaccinated don’t can be easily explained as a natural evolution of the virus and/or a second introduction from an animal source. It is a sequence of events that is expected. The public reaction would be that it is the natural consequence of avoiding the vaccines.

Of course it came from a lab. Fauci has a whole pantry full of these diseases for us.

When does he get tarred and feathered?

I will take Communist China for ten, Mtnclimber

After the Democrats admitted we have bio labs in Ukraine, I'll take USA for 200.

It is very likely that the omicron viruses bio engineered and was intended to be live attenuated virus inoculation for Covid-19. Which could explain why the Biden Admin tried to desperately to shut it down. They do seem to have an unbroken track record of doing exactly the opposite of the right thing when it comes to taking positive and effective measures to stop the pandemic.
