And the lone comment at the end of the article by some dipshit named C. Narayana Varun is fucking priceless: "I totally don't understand the logic of how Gain of function is a dangerous experiment, when done in a well contained lab lead by responsible scientists...."
Note: 'Gain of Function' research is that which increases the virulence, ease of spread or host range of dangerous pathogens.
Why, just why the hell is anyone engineering these viruses to be even more lethal than they already are, unless it is for the purpose of using them as a bioweapon??! Nobody has even remotely approached answering this basic question.
Strange how it took them decades to get the bat strain to cross over to humans because the proteins couldn’t possibly do it on their own in nature. Less than five years later we’re told it happened naturally.

This is what happens when people try to play god
Call me crazy but maybe we shouldn't be creating deadly viruses?
