Looks real.

And the important part is that the engineered variant is 80% lethal in
"in K18-hACE2 mice" that is to say mice that were engineered for the
original Washington strain to be highly lethal to.

Who was it that said, "Build a better mouse trap..."?

We have to compete with the Chinese.

Another one of your posts resultant of your mindlessness and ignorance. You can't understand *anything* you read. Even a semi-intelligent person would naturally ask " Well, how susceptible to succumbing to infection are these k18-hACE2 mice?" The answer is VERY susceptible. Research from November 2020- !NOTE THE YEAR!- demonstrated the virus killed them stone cold dead in 6 days flat!

https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-020-19891-7

Don't bother reading it because it will deflate your propensity for irrational doomsday hysteria.

So now they put together a chimera that expresses Omicron S-protein spikes. A mortality of only 80% seems like a step up for the mice. More importantly, the chimeric virus will not evade vaccine induced immunity of the latest Pfizer bivalent vaccine- mainly because it is specific to the Omicron S-protein. And it will not evade Omicron infection induced immunity for at least six months.

I scanned the paper quickly, did not study it, but looking at the section highlights it looks fundamental. They were mainly focused on pathogenicity and what effect the various mutational changes have.

And the paper loses epidemiological relevance by failing to investigate the transmissibility of it all. And that's in line with their basic research, which was not to produce a lethal new strain- which they did by accident- lethal to highly susceptible mice.

Do you see how Russia Today has made a fool out of you?

The mice were developed to study the original SARS coronavirus at least as far back as 2007 ( 15 years ago). But at least you're thinking.

It's only 38 pages, potty mouth.

It's not what you think it is.

Given Russia's military "performance", likely not nearly as hard as we
have been. But defense budgets always go up regardless

There are 1,000+ coronaviruses present in our daily environment, according to dr. Sauci,
so there are thousands of mutant variants
and experiments are under way

US university that did the experiment now under investigation:

There is no such investigation. NIAID is responding to political hysteria over possible government funding of gain-of-function research, so they want clarification from the BU research group. It's an administrative issue, and nobody has called in the FBI to confiscate all their records, equipment and lab samples.

You can't understand anything you read, which is not surprising since you're just as likely to believe aliens at BU did it.
