Bill Gates cares. He is in cahoots with them.

Sounds like the USA needs to close all borders to all traffic for 3 months to ensure we survive.
I don't care about Asia or Europe, the have freeloader long enough.

HKU5 is a Pipistrellus bat coronavirus that discovered by Hong-Kong University (HKU) long time ago. The virus can’t interact with or amplify in human cells. The new HKU5-CoV-2 has spike protein that can interact with human cell receptor ACE2 (with low efficiency). Coronaviruses contain 28~32 proteins. They need almost all their ~30 proteins to be able to function in human cells to be amplified in human cells. Even the spike protein can be Sars-CoV-2 like (ACE2 binding) the rest of HKU5-CoV-2 proteins remain HKU5-like. Coronavirus has very high mutation rate. If HKU5 continually cross infects between human and bat, it may eventually generate enough adaptive mutations allowing it to grow in human cells. That’s why when a new virus jump from other species to human, you want to prevent the spread at early stage to avoid it eventually well adapt to human after enough time in human (like SARS-CoV-2). I am more concerned about other SARS-CoV-1 or 2-like bat coronaviruses that already have most of their other proteins potentially adapted to human functions. Once their spikes adapt to human receptors (not necessary ACE2, other human cell receptors also work), they will be problems.

When is Trump going to demand reparations from China for the first virus????
You realize we started the research. We moved it to China. We funded that research.

Anything positive or good for humanity ever come from the Wuhan lab?
