Virologist Chumakov considers omicron to be an artificial strain of coronavirus Corresponding member of the Russian Academy of Sciences Chumakov: "omicron" is artificially created as a "super-attenuated" strain According to Chumakov's version, the strain was purposefully created "super-weakened". However, other virologists disagree with him, pointing out that all mutations can be explained without a theory of artificial origin.

Virologist Pyotr Chumakov did not rule out the possibility that the omicron strain was artificially created. He told about his version in an interview with Radio Russia.

Petr Chumakov - Corresponding Member of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Head of the Cell Proliferation Laboratory at the V.A. Engelhardt RAS.

“I believe it is so. That these are the British. ... decided to end the pandemic now, because now the time has come for some decisive changes in the world, ”Chumakov said.

“This is not just a mutation. It was they who collected all the mutations that were known that were already encountered in this virus spontaneously, that is, when it evolved ... They collected all these mutations in one strain, moreover, they also introduced there an insert of three amino acids that are characteristic of of the coronavirus season. Nobody can explain how it could arise independently in this strain, ”the virologist explained his position.

In his opinion, this could explain the fact that the strain turned out to be "super-attenuated". Chumakov suggested that this could have been done for "analytical" or other purposes. “Now just such a moment has come when, for some political reason, they decided to quickly turn the pandemic down,” says the virologist.

Experts interviewed by RBC disagreed with the version of Pyotr Chumakov. Director of the Research Institute of Epidemiology and Microbiology named after G.P. Somov of Rospotrebnadzor Mikhail Shchelkanov said that he did not see evidence that the strain could be artificially created. “This is a normal course of events, when the virus accumulates mutations and weakens on the sly. I don't see any human hand there. Any virus exists in one way or another in the form of many variants. Over time, certain options begin to be selected. Naturally, after two to three decades, the virus must adapt in the human population. Here, we see, the option swung towards adaptation to the human body, ”he explained. Shchelkanov noted that most of the mutations in the genome of viruses are associated precisely with "turning off pathogenicity." “In all coronaviruses, due to a number of replication characteristics, insertions and deletions of several amino acid residues are very easy to form. This is also not surprising and nothing new, ”he concluded.

This is a mother of all conspiracy theories, of course, but also it has an element of plausibility to it, so hopefully it is of interest.

The rebuttal that mutations are mostly not new does not work for me: collecting all the mutations seen in various covid strains in different countries in one product -- how can this happen naturally? Should we not see a strain that has half of the new mutations somewhere?

As for putting the "blame" on Omicrons on the Brits -- well, good arguments for this are missing, but let us do note that continuous epidemics and its mishandling is quickly ruining the West, and the UK is perhaps in the worse shape now than other countries. And Boris' popularity is lower than Brandon's.

---

And another thought: there may be a simple natural connection between apparent weakness of Omicron and its superior transmissibility: it is simply that a person who has slight cold may not be overly careful about self-isolation -- unlike a person who is just too sick to move around.

This entire chimera coronavirus, with all of its variants, was created in a lab in China with funding from our government.

Cobbled together with bits of other viruses, it was designed to be more contagious to humans.

Fauci thought it was worth the risk of a pandemic.

A modest amount of reading about corona viruses will tell you they are prolific reproducers—and mutators.

Most of the mutations die in the host. Those that get out are most often more contagious and less lethal.

Sometimes the simplest answer makes the most sense.

Other studies are finding the omicron mutations to be virtually impossible to result from natural mutation, and suggesting another lab-created agent. Whether released intentionally as a ‘ back fire” to counter covid delta ( a White Hat scenario), or leaked from a lab trying to develop a competing virus as an antidote. Possibly even from a lab in South Africa.

Dr Been on youtube discusses evidence that omicron has elements of a common cold virus, making it highly transmissible but mild, because the human immune system responds to it.

Will add links

I believe Dr. Malone hinted at this.

True. But here's the virologist's opinion questioning the "simplest answer"....

[[the strain was purposefully created “super-weakened”.]]

Actually that doesn’t sound like a bad idea!

Well, there has been some talk about the “next generation of vaccines” not involve individuals going anywhere to get ‘a jab’. That the next generation will be a ‘vaccine’ that will replicate and pass from human to human. That sounds awfully like an attenuated virus — and a completely artificially man-made one at that.

Why would they create a variant to end the pandemic?

Standard idea, actually, this creates a vaccine.

And the alternative candidate for the polio vaccine was a weakened virus which was supposed to reproduce naturally... it actually worked but the idea was killed quickly -- natural spread of the virus is not good for profits.

LOL.. cannot get into their minds, but the current trend would easily lead to a total breakdown throughout the West and power loss by the elite; if they came to this conclusion, stopping the pandemic would be a rational answer.

And specifically the Brits are in more trouble than others. Economy is going down faster than even the US; and Boris is unpopular, but cannot be replaced -- this would lead to general elections.

Well, general elections happen all the time. I'm sure Labour and LibLab would be quite happy to have one.

The current Prime Minster, Carrie Symonds, wasn't even elected, as such.

Doesn’t matter how it came about since everything has to be a conspiracy now, and people will insist (without any hard evidence) that this is part of the “conspiracy of everything” that has taken the world by storm.
