Canadian and US scientists are infecting macaques with the "highly pathogenic 1918 H1N1 influenza virus"

At least according to this Journal of Virology article.

Won't be able to blame China if this thing escapes the lab.

Covid-19 virus was funded by the US government, this is not even a secret, because the domestic restrictions, NIH had to outsource the research on certain viruses to foreign labs/countries, this is due to national security concerns, the funding on Covid-19 in Wuhan Lab was from NIH. Also, you may have heard the misinformation on biolabs in Ukraine, of course it's not true, those are not biolabs, they were just research labs but they were funded by US agencies, for the same security concern, those bio research had to be done on foreign soil.

We will fucking blame shithole China for everything wrong in the world, okay?

This is how idiotic shithole China has become.

[quote]More than five million people have been ordered to undergo Covid-19 testing in the coastal Chinese city of Xiamen this week, after some 40 cases of the virus were detected.

[quote]But they're not the only ones who have been ordered to get tested: an official notice states that some forms of sealife are also expected to join the latest mass-testing drive.

Why?

R3 the fact that they can test that many people and it only takes them a few days is remarkable.

Zero covid is the only way to go, since damage is cumulative and "vaccine" does not prevent transmission. Up to 20% of people who catch covid, even mildly, can get post covid syndrome.

What could go wrong?

We really should fucking simmer down on bringing extinct *anything* back to life. Maybe put the research effort into new threats instead.

r1 is disinformation. International research partnerships exist across the world and are not new or nefarious. No one created covid, putin stooge.
