Wuhan Covid lab planning ‘ominous’ new bat experiments

Chinese scientists are planning “ominous” experiments similar to those that could have triggered the Covid pandemic, experts have warned.

The Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) published new research this month announcing it had found a bat coronavirus that can enter human cells, similar to a Covid-19 infection.

The paper concludes with calls for “further investigation” into strains that have more infectious spike proteins, as well as testing in human transgenic mice.

The first known Covid cases emerged just eight miles from WIV, which was known to be collecting and manipulating coronaviruses.

The institute was stripped of US funding for carrying out dangerous experiments ahead of the outbreak, and the US select subcommittee on the coronavirus pandemic concluded in December that the disease “most likely” leaked from a Wuhan lab.

Oh yeah?

[pnz1]

Why are they still in business?

[rktman]

Someone misspelled ‘release’.

[CatOwner]

Nuke from orbit.

[RandFan]

Good question someone is keeping them afloat

[Salman]

Still funded by the US?

[Orosius]

The Democrats will cook up another pandemic to derail the MAGA train because nothing else is working and that’s all they have left.

The day is going to come when those labs will need to be vaporized by the us military. If things keep going as they are then we will end up in 12 monkeys territory soon.

Nuke the site from orbit

[Deo volente]

Absolutely. Then salt the ground. If the CCP objects, tell them they’re next.

Why don’t we just do the world a favor and drop a MOAB on the Wuhan Institute of Virology?

[Fai Mao]

Disclaimer.

My PhD Alma Mater is Central China Normal University, which is affiliated with this lab. But my degree there was in Educational Philosophy and I had no connection to the lab.

Seriously, you can’t blame me for this.

I keep running this scenario, and it's becoming harder and harder to feel bad about it...

W59 on Wuhan

[metmom]

Nuke it.

[xp38]

I don’t know. I keep recalling the Andromeda Strain near the end when they discover that nuking the place would spread the virus everywhere. Maybe I’ve been watching too many movies. :)

[Democrat = party of treason]

NUKE THE PLACE

[sauropod]

bkmk

[TornadoAlley3]

I guess we just wait for it to get here?

[Shady]

Carpet bomb the place.
