I read a series of post apocalyptic novels sometime ago, by Scott Medbury I think it was, (can't remember the name of the series at the moment), that played on the premise of China hitting us with an ethnically targeted bioweapon ... killed 95% of those (here in North America) of European, Latino and African descent, but not Asians.

Then they invaded.

Interesting premise. Wish I could remember the name of the series, it was a good read. We retaliated, kids grew into adults, etc., etc., etc.

Six books total I think.

That is AOC level stupid. Shocked that any Kennedy could say something that dumb. And I’m not a Kennedy fan.

The US government is evil beyond repair, so none of this would surprise me.

A former U.S. intelligence official warned this week that the world’s largest biotechnology firm, a Chinese company called BGI Group, is trying to collect Americans’ DNA for China, and could use the data to monopolize critical medical supplies.

BGI Group is trying to build COVID-19 testing labs in U.S. states, a move that caught the attention of U.S. intelligence experts such as William Evanina, who until last week served as the director of the National Counterintelligence and Security Center. In an interview with CBS’ 60 Minutes, Evanina warned that foreign nations providing biotech services in the U.S. could allow them to collect and use biodata to gain a strategic advantage over the U.S.

BGI Group offered to build COVID-19 testing labs shortly after the coronavirus outbreak reached the U.S. in 2020, CBS reported. The biotech firm contacted the office of Washington State Governor Jay Inslee after some of the first U.S. COVID-19 cases appeared in the state. The Chinese firm similarly reached out to New York and California and at least three other states, according to CBS.

Evanina was one U.S. intelligence official who raised the warning about BGI Group’s offer and, as a result, the states declined the Chinese firm’s offers.

“This shows the nefarious mindset of the Communist Party of China, to take advantage of a worldwide crisis like COVID,” Evanina told CBS. “We put out an advisory to not only every American, but to hospitals, associations, and clinics. Knowing that BGI is a Chinese company, do we understand where that data’s going?” …

Bioweapons will be the next "atomic bombs" and we will have a new variation of MAD. Misunderstanding and a population group disappears. Of course, when it comes to depopulation Gates and company, it is a dream come true.

Why would you want weapons against Russian DNA in Ukraine? Ukrainians have some Russian DNA.

Genetically modifying a virus to target certain ethnicities or the elderly was science fiction 15-20 years ago.....it's a reality today.

Seems unlikely. I mean Russians and Ukrainians are both pig faced Slavs.

If we have that capability, China and Russia will also. Almost like a nuclear war, if one side releases a virus so would the opposing side and there is an uncontrollable spread of virus world wide. Unless a vaccine exist, once released there would be no way to stop it, mutually assured destruction.

The Kievan Russ are literally cousins over the last 800 to 1000 years. Gonna be hard to make a bioweapon to know the difference.
