Boston University creates a new Covid strain with an 80% kill rate

Hey, isn’t Gain of Function research super, super illegal in the United States? These lunatic scientists are going to get us all killed, that virus should be destroyed, and all these scientists should be in prison for this.

US researchers have developed a new lethal Covid strain in a laboratory – echoing the type of experiments many fear started the pandemic.
The mutant variant — which is a hybrid of Omicron and the original Wuhan virus — killed 80 percent of mice infected with it at Boston University.
When a similar group of rodents were exposed to the standard Omicron strain, however, they all survived and only experienced 'mild' symptoms.
The scientists also infected human cells with the hybrid variant and found it was five times more infectious than Omicron.
This suggests the man-made virus might be the most contagious form yet.
It will no doubt surprise many Americans that such experiments continue to go on in the US despite concerns similar studies may have led to the global Covid outbreak.
Covid first began spreading from a wet market in Wuhan, China, about eight miles from a similar high-security virology laboratory that manipulated bat coronaviruses.
So-called gain-of-function research involved tinkering with viruses to make them more lethal or infectious - with the hopes of getting ahead of a future outbreak.

Weren't rodents (particularly bats) ruled out as a virus vector?

They need to drone this fricking lab.
What the frick is wrong with these idiots?

They are going to keep fricking around until they kill us all. That facility should be burned to the ground.

“How was your day honey ?”
“Oh today was awesome.. we successfully created a frankenstein covid and created an 80% death rate in mice … everyone was so happy and also secretly worried at the same time..”

Smells like bullshite
The main reason omicron is less deadly is because of its spike protein mutation
So if you put that spike protein on the original virus you just get omicron

An 80% purge doesn't sound all that bad honestly

Hey, at least they didn’t use puppies.

Exactly what the Marxist Envirowhacko globalists want
They want the population of Earth to be under a billion

Odds are against you there. The peasants will see the wrath of that.

Still trying to sell the bull that this started with a bat sandwich.

If you read the pre-print of the paper (not peer reviewed yet), instead of the pants-wetting inducing Daily Mail article with the scary headline, the intention of the experiment was to determine how the virus breaks through vaccine immunity by these spike protein mutations.
