On: Why a Highly Mutated Coronavirus Variant Has Scientists on Alert

[neets]

I wonder is human tinkering has anything todo with this?

[Mayzie → neets]

Yes, you’re exactly right. Humanity tinkered with it by deliberately not wearing masks and vaccinating, which caused it to mutate and spread. If only everybody just wore masks and isolated for a couple of weeks, there’d be no COVID at all

What tinkering?

Your source has fallen for Russian propaganda the very premise that the article is based on is false.

My source is the state department: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ydSf57SRtcQ

The US Department of State official website would be state.gov, not youtube.com.

Well, there you have it - zero confirmation that there's any biological weapons research - just confirmation that the US supports biological research labs.

You do realise that the overwhelming bulk of biological research labs do mundane work that's dull and boring?

[willcipriano → defrost]

Yeah they are just terrified that the Russians will get their hands on the pediatric cancer cures they are working on.

That's also why they have been fully transparent and declassified what they were working on there.

What they didn't do is claim its "Russian propaganda" to claim these labs exist at all, because that would be the act of a guilty person.

Can you please explain how this counts as evidence for, or as proof and is not just people telling you what you're supposed to believe?

You know, just like the "other side" is doing it.

Well I just read the source material as well, and even the headline is wrong in the article you posted.

The DOD provides partial funding the labs they don't run them.

If you want to know more about the situation I suggest you read the source and some good articles on the topic like this one.

> The Pentagon said on Thursday that it has operated 46 biolabs in Ukraine handling dangerous pathogens, after previously dismissing the charges as Russian propaganda.

What is the official source? And what does that have to do with covid variants?

[willcipriano → Krssst]

> What is the official source?

In this thread I have provided a clip of the undersecretary of state claiming under oath, in congress, that these biolabs exist and she is very worried about Russians gaining access to the contents of them.

> what does that have to do with covid variants?

Here is some similar research conducted by the people behind the Ukrainian biolabs but in China: https://thebulletin.org/2022/08/nih-to-terminate-ecohealth-a...
