Covid-19 already attacks the brain.


Also, and this may be news to some, we are't mice.

But I'm sure if China did create a much more deadly version of the disease, many of you would still avoid any and all methods to control its spread.

Sciencetimes.com is a source for half-truth stuff?
I have to admit that I do not know the source, but at least the name tells me nothing of how reliable it is. Kinda akin to Democratic People's Republic of Korea. Sure, they say they are democratic, it's even in the name, but...

That's better then taking no caution and shoving everything handed to us and then some more into our bodies. Smart to use you guys as guinea pigs.

There’s some wriggle-room between these extremes.

Eight rodents infected with the pathogen 'surprisingly' died within eight days

If they infect billion mice, they would then die in a billion days. That would make them virtually immortal.

If people survived this virus, would it make them smarter or dumber?

Have you read this article?
Have you seen that this article is quoting real scientists?
I am not using this article to bash the communist government of China.
So what is your motive, since that is the effect.

Terrif.

The daily mail, a tabloid noted for inaccurate
sensationalist stories.

So why are you posting this?

Just any excuse to bash China?

Pretty Much.

My motivation for posting the different news articles regarding GX_P2V is to be informative about that virus. Anyone claiming otherwise about my motivation for those articles do not know me and shouldn't presume that they know my motives.

Any money that this is yet another inaccurate claim. For a start it’s not a coronavirus.
Please read the rest of the other articles in this thread for more information.

If there's one thing we've learned over the past 4 years, it's that messing around with random viruses in labs is a totally smart idea and literally nothing can go wrong.

That's all we need. Does anything good come out of China anymore?

An army that will liberate Taiwan from the vanity of western influence sin? Actually, most of the stuff you buy in America

Anyways, here's a NY Post article the same

The poor mouse :sigh:

The Scriptures prophecy deadly plagues - don't matter if they are man-made or naturally occuring. The truth is these things will come, and it is the haughty nation that claims to be Christian that will be brought down by the judgment of an Almighty God: that nation being America.

People who claim to be Christians need to heed this, the real meaning of what Repentance is:
"First, a real hatred of sin as sin, not merely its consequences. A hatred not only of this or that sin, but of all sin, and particularly of the root itself; self-will. “Thus saith the LORD God, Repent, and turn from your idols; and turn away your faces from all your abominations” (Eze 14:6). He who hates not sin, loves it. God’s demand is, “Ye shall loathe yourselves in your own sight for all your evils that you have committed” (Eze 20:43). One who has really repented can truthfully say, “I hate every false way” (Psa 119:104). He who once thought a course of holy living was a gloomy thing, has another judgment now. He who once regarded a course of self-pleasing as attractive, now detests it and has purposed to forsake all sin forever. This is the change of mind which God requires."
- The Doctrine of Sanctification, A.W. Pink (1886-1952)

And, people who do not know Jesus Christ, should realize the times we live in are the last days, and great calamities of all kind shall come, and even are now here, with all the floods, storms, fires, earthquakes, volcanoes, and wars - and the only hope is in Christ, for eternal life, so that no matter what comes our way: plague, famine, war...we are safe if we trust in the cross of Christ where He shed His blood for our sins.
