Gain of function research has risen to more public consideration during the Covid vax issue. However, as detailed in a paper at gmwatch.org, that has been reproduced at various sites, as it is so good, two myths have been promoted by the mainstream in its Covid narrative, one that viruses seldom escape from laboratories, and two, that most pandemics are zoonotic, caused by a natural jumping of a virus from animals to humans. Both of these propositions were advanced early in the Covid plandemic, but have now come under challenge, with the British government’s cross-party members of Parliament (MPs) on the House of Commons Science and Technology Committee, now being told that the lab leak hypothesis is most likely true, by Canadian molecular biologist Dr Alina Chan. This story will be covered in a separate post.
However, as detailed below, many pandemics have arisen from lab escapes and almost all have not been directly zoonotic. `These labs have been engaging in gain of function research, so what happened at Wuhan is not a singularity, but common, with lab workers often becoming infected with the viruses that they have been working on. A pandora’s box is being opened.
