Chinese Scientists Discover Lethal Mutant Strain of COVID-19 in Extensive Study on “Humanized” Mice
In a groundbreaking study, Chinese scientists have uncovered a highly lethal mutant strain of COVID-19 that wreaked havoc on genetically modified mice designed to mirror human genetic makeup. The virus, known as GX_P2V, attacked the brains of the “humanized” mice, ultimately leading to their demise within a mere eight days.
GX_P2V is a mutated version of GX/2017, a coronavirus cousin originally found in Malaysian pangolins back in 2017. This new strain proved to be far deadlier than its predecessors, with infected mice displaying alarming symptoms such as rapid weight loss, hunched posture, and sluggish movement.
The research revealed that the virus had the ability to infect various organs, including the lungs, bones, eyes, tracheas, and brains of the mice. It was the severe brain involvement that ultimately led to the mice’s untimely deaths. The study reported a chilling 100% mortality rate among the infected mice, surpassing all previous findings related to COVID-19 viruses.
Despite the dire implications of this research on human health, its direct impact on humans still remains uncertain. Experts have voiced concerns over the limited information available, with some even criticizing the study as scientifically pointless. Additionally, questions have been raised regarding the biosafety measures employed during the research.
Notably, this study is attributed to Chinese scientists and holds no apparent connection to the Wuhan Institute of Virology, which drew intense scrutiny and accusations during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The origins of COVID-19 itself continue to elude scientists and investigators worldwide. Despite extensive research and investigation, the true source of the virus remains unknown.
As the scientific community grapples with these new findings, more research and collaboration will be necessary to fully understand the implications of this lethal mutant strain of COVID-19. The Puck Drop will continue to monitor developments and provide updates on this alarming discovery and its potential impact on public health.
