There’s a new COVID variant that China has been tweaking in the lab, and it’s unbelievable. It was tested on mice and had a 100 percent mortality rate. Dubbed the ‘brain virus,' Chinese scientists are paving the way for another global pandemic if this escapes their labs again. The study involved a “cousin” strain of the coronavirus, which was mutated and then administered to humanized mice; all died within eight days. The study does not say how this could impact humans, but the research has been heavily criticized as pointless, dangerous, and veering into absolute madness (via NY Post):
In a Wuhan-esque study, Chinese scientists are experimenting with a mutant COVID-19 strain that has a 100% kill streak in “humanized” mice.
The deadly virus — known as GX_P2V — attacked the brains of mice that were engineered to reflect similar genetic makeup to people, according to a study shared last week out of Beijing.
“This underscores a spillover risk of GX_P2V into humans and provides a unique model for understanding the pathogenic mechanisms of SARS-CoV-2-related viruses,” the authors wrote.
The deadly virus is a mutated version of GX/2017, a coronavirus cousin that was reportedly discovered in Malaysian pangolins in 2017 — three years before the pandemic.

Francois Balloux, an epidemiology expert at the University College London’s Genetics Institute, slammed the research as “terrible” and “scientifically totally pointless.”
“I can see nothing of vague interest that could be learned from force-infecting a weird breed of humanised mice with a random virus. Conversely, I could see how such stuff might go wrong,” the professor wrote on X.
“The preprint does not specify the biosafety level…The absence of this information raises…possibility…this research, like the research in Wuhan…that likely caused…Covid…, was performed without…biosafety…essential for research with a potential pandemic pathogen.”

Dr Gennadi Glinsky, a retired professor of medicine at Stanford, wrote: “This madness must be stopped before too late.”
Dr. John Campbell's lengthy video about this study and its research has since been removed from YouTube. He, too, agreed this research must stop, as there is nothing natural about this pathogen; we’re creating it. What might have forced him to remove the clip was the insinuation that this research was being conducted for one purpose: the creation of new biological weapons.

Patient zero. I like that name.
Any comments from fauci?
Biden probably funding it.
Bkmk
Build back better!
Good Grief! Does anyone still believe the "pandemic" was all an accident.
There’s only ONE reason why the Chi-Comms are doing this...

We had Zero now pulling the strings of his successor Patient Zero. Keeps things simple.
Coming soon. Hope Ivermectin works against it.
But to what benefit? If the virus has a short incubation period, it is worthless as a weapon because it will "burn out," in other words kill its victims before it can spread too much. If it has a long incubation period, it will kill everyone including those deploying it unless they have a cure or vaccine ready. Even then these types of viruses can mutate rendering pre-prepared cures and vaccines useless.
The whole exercise is pointless even from a military point of view.
The Chinese need something to disrupt the next election in the US.
Nuke em now.
Am I the only one whose looking at all my vaccinated community members who are constantly sick now , even from things they’ve never had issues with ,, this kind makes me worry that it will be the final blow and by the time these unsuspecting folks do realize what a lot of us have been watching , it’s gonna be too late ,, which was the plan all along of the order of the elders of Zion . Makes me sick and mad to say the least.
Election lock in device

I guess there’s some conciliation knowing that, with their fabled chicom competence, China will be wiped out first when this inevitably escapes from their lab.
