They never learn: Chinese scientists create mutant EBOLA virus

Ebola VIRUS? Sorry, but the semantics are wrong as they have created Ebola PATHOGENS which will become a virus within the human immune system to destroy the pathogens. Viruses are a natural process WITHIN the human immune system.

Chinese scientists have engineered a pathogen with parts of the Ebola virus in a laboratory, ostensibly to better study the eponymous disease it causes – but conveniently forgetting the lessons of the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

Big League Politics reported, citing the Daily Mail, that researchers at Hebei Medical University were responsible for this dangerous endeavor. The scientists "utilized a contagious disease of livestock and added a protein found in Ebola, which allows the pathogen to infect cells and spread throughout the human body." This oddly mirrored the gain-of-function research done with bat coronaviruses at the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV), which later gave rise to COVID-19.

The resulting pathogen was then injected into hamsters, who died within two to three days. Predictably, those given the lethal virus "developed severe systemic diseases similar to those observed in human Ebola patients – including multi-organ failure" as per the study published in the journal Virologica Sinica. "One particularly horrific symptom saw the infected hamsters develop secretions in their eyes, which impaired their vision and scabbed over the surface of the eyeballs."

"The study suggested that infected hamsters could be a decent model for studying the spread and treatment of Ebola in the future," the Mail pointed out. "But lab leaks happen, and these incidents could lead to the spread of [the modified pathogen] to those outside of the lab....<<<<Read More>>>....
