Is this ‘Disease X?’
Chinese military scientists have reportedly developed a mutant coronavirus strain cloned from a pangolin virus that’s 100 percent lethal to mice in lab testing.
The study, conducted by researchers at Beijing University of Chemical Technology, infected “humanized” mice with the GX_P2V virus discovered in pangolins in 2017, according to The Daily Mail.
More on the study from The Mail:
The mice had been ‘humanized’, meaning they were engineered to express a protein found in people, with the goal being to assess how the virus might react in humans.
Every rodent that was infected with the pathogen died within eight days, which the researchers described as ‘surprisingly’ quick.
The team were also surprised to find high levels of viral load in the mice’s brains and eyes – suggesting the virus, despite being related to Covid, multiplies and spreads through the body in a unique way.
While the study has not yet been released, The Mail reports researchers claimed the death of the lab mice “underscores a spillover risk of GX_P2V into humans.”
Members of the scientific community, however, criticized the research as risky, and expressed concern over researchers’ failure to disclose safety standards undertaken throughout the study.
“I can see nothing of vague interest that could be learned from force-infecting a weird breed of humanized mice with a random virus. Conversely, I could see how such stuff might go wrong,” commented University College London Genetics Institute Prof. Francois Balloux.
I had a look at the preprint. It’s a terrible study, scientifically totally pointless. I can see nothing of vague interest that could be learned from force-infecting a weird breed of humanised mice with a random virus. Conversely, I could see how such stuff might go wrong …

Rutgers University Chemistry and Chemical Biology professor Richard Ebright expressed similar concerns, saying a potential lack of safety protocols could lead to a lab leak not unlike what happened with Covid-19 and the Wuhan lab.
“The absence of this information raises the concerning possibility that part or all of this research, like the research in Wuhan in 2016-2019 that likely caused the Covid-19 pandemic, recklessly was performed without the minimal biosafety containment and practices essential for research with a potential pandemic pathogens,” Prof. Ebright told The Mail.
The study’s findings compound concerns that “Disease X” could bring back authoritarian Covid-19 lockdowns and restrictions just in time to upend the pivotal 2024 presidential election.

The UN says brace for the arrived of disease X that they say will kill 20 times more people than Covid. At the same time they are ramming through their Global Pandemic Treaty that takes control of every facet of human life. This is conquests by fear. This is 5th generation… https://t.co/NBpjWmg9Kh

Disease X is a catch all term for the massive illegal gain of function research going on around the planet. The UN and WEF are one and the same. Both groups are saying brace for a new ultra deadly virus. Their solution is handing over control of our nations and body’s to them. If… https://t.co/I3R46OabWL
