The report by the Daily Mail.co.uk, has generated considerable anxiety about the possibility of an “accidental” lab release of the new, so-called lethal version of Covid, which killed 80 percent of mice in a study. That sounds very bad, but it cannot be assumed that the same would happen to humans, especially unvaxxed individuals, who have by now been exposed to multiple Covid variants, and suffered through it, fortifying their immune systems. Boston University took a different approach, saying that the media had sensationalised and misrepresented the research, as there was no gain-of-function research, and the strain of mice used were very susceptible to Covid. Agreed; but that being said, this is only the tip of the iceberg of viral research across the world, and the broad issue remains. The solution is greater public awareness, but that is not possible if people put their heads in the sand, and shy away from thinking about these things, even if it might hurt the brain a wee bit.
