'Disease X': UK scientists begin developing vaccines against new pandemic
Sky News ^ | 8-7-23 | Thomas Moore

Posted on 08/07/2023 6:46:04 AM PDT by dynachrome

UK scientists have begun developing vaccines as an insurance against a new pandemic caused by an unknown "Disease X".

The work is being carried out at the government's high-security Porton Down laboratory complex in Wiltshire by a team of more than 200 scientists.

They have drawn up a threat list of animal viruses that are capable of infecting humans and could in future spread rapidly around the world.

Which of them will break through and trigger the next pandemic is unknown, which is why it's referred to only as "Disease X".

Sky News was escorted around the site, which is run by the UK Health Security Agency, to see the work being done in high-containment labs.

But scientists at the centre are now involved in monitoring several high-risk pathogens, including bird flu, monkeypox and hantavirus, a disease spread by rodents.

You develop the vaccine.
We'll tell you what it's for.
Bring Out Your Dead

Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.

The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.

The false positive rate was 100%.

At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.

*sigh* Such is life, and death...

Quarantine the sick. Protect the vulnerable. Hang the guilty. Free everyone else.

Why do I have a sneaky suspicion that this will cause harm?

Musk won't like being called a disease.

If they don’t know what the next pandemic will be, they can’t make a vaccine for it.

Which tells me, they DO know, so they either gain of function’d it or created it.

A rabid badger mated with a hedgehog, which vomited onto someone’s fish and chips.

The potatoes came from Idaho, and the fish from Norway.

A recipe for disaster...

This is complete bullsh!t. The elite wants 90% of the population to be removed from the planet, so why would they want to prevent the next pandemic? They would actually welcome it!

In other words, more gain of function research.

From what little I know of Porton Down, I would bet that they already have weaponized versions of these diseases ready to release. The only reason they’re trying to develop vaccines is to attempt to protect the elite fraction of their populace when they do use these bioweapons.

That's a fancy euphemism for developing biological weapons.

They are likely orchestrating it.

As a precaution, have a supply of Ivermectin, D3 5k units each and Zinc Sulfate handy.
