New strain of 'Killer Flu' created in Chinese lab "could kill millions globally"
Holy sheet!



Senior scientists have criticised the “appalling irresponsibility” of researchers in China who have deliberately created new strains of influenza virus in a veterinary laboratory.

They warned there is a danger that the new viral strains created by mixing bird-flu virus with human influenza could escape from the laboratory to cause a global pandemic killing millions of people.

Lord May of Oxford, a former government chief scientist and past president of the Royal Society, denounced the study published today in the journal Science as doing nothing to further the understanding and prevention of flu pandemics.

Good find. I wonder who financed the study.

 Quoting: JohnnyTruant



The controversial study into viral mixing was carried out by a team led by Professor Hualan Chen, director of China’s National Avian Influenza Reference Laboratory at Harbin Veterinary Research Institute.


Going by the above paragraph I would say that Harbin Veterinary Research Institute would have had the funding approved by the Ministry of Health and/or Science R&D in Beijing.

I'm an optimist at heart, but I sometimes worry about the Murphy's Law factor (what can go wrong eventually will go wrong).

Just as the A-bomb was originally an experiment converted into a one-nation-use "war-ender", up to 9 countries now have the A-bomb and some are now threatening to use this weapon preemptively. That means that in a matter of time, it will be.

In many ways, deadly diseases like the one created in this Chinese lab are much worse, because if it is released somehow and manages to spread (i.e, via an international airport) the damage is infinite in scale.

No diseases like this should ever be created.

NIH most likely. She is a collaborator with the University of Wisconsin-Madison. These researchers conduct their research here and at home, wherever that may be.

The scary thing about all this is they typically either travel with their work or have it shipped out via fed ex or some other freight, with little care of IATA guidelines in many cases.

It's all a freaking play land to these fools.

And H7N9 is what?... Maybe created in a lab as well?

Let's not be so naive as to think the Chinese are the ONLY one's playing God in the world today.

I bet it will be 'accidently' released from the lab in a couple of months.

How can people be so stupid? Aren't these scientists supposed to be intelligent and follow some sort of ethics? Really, this is just plain playing with fire, and the innocent will get burned.
