The creation of a new recombinant COVID-19 virus at Boston University, viewed as a “Frankenstein virus” by many, has raised a public uproar. This is not merely a risky gain-of-function experiment on “enhanced potential pandemic pathogens (ePPPs)”, it is a creation of an enhanced pandemic pathogen. NO “potential” here. What is the rationale for this statement?…

Republicans on the House Energy and Commerce Committee are seeking answers from Boston University over its “potentially risky gain-of-function research with coronaviruses.” In the preprint paper first released on Oct. 14, researchers with Boston University said they created a new strain of COVID-19 by combining the Omicron variant’s spike protein and the original Wuhan strain…
NIH Investigating Boston University’s COVID-19 Study With ’80 Percent’ Mortality in Mice
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) said it is looking into a preprint study that was carried out at Boston University that created a “chimeric” COVID-19 variant that killed 80 percent of lab mice. “The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), part of the National Institutes of Health, did not review nor issue awards…
Top NIH Official Was Unaware of Boston Lab’s New COVID Research With ’80 Percent’ Kill Rate in Mice
A National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases official said the agency will further evaluate a controversial Boston University-commissioned preprint study that developed a COVID-19 hybrid that killed “80 percent” of lab mice, saying the team involved didn’t clear the work with the federal agency. Speaking to STAT News, Emily Erbelding, the head of NIAID’s division…
Fauci’s Agency Now Scrutinizing University Study of Hybrid COVID Strain That Killed ’80 Percent’ of Mice

US Lab Creates ‘Chimera’ Covid Strain That Killed 80% of Mice Studied | Facts Matter
According to a new paper just made public, researchers at Boston University were able to combine the spike protein from Omicron with the original strain of the virus, to create a new chimera strain that was so deadly it killed 80 percent of the humanized mice that they were testing on. Using grant funding from…
Boston University Defends Controversial Study on COVID Hybrid Strain With ’80 Percent’ Mortality Rate in Mice
Boston University issued a statement Tuesday defending its research of a COVID-19 Omicron strain when they took the variant’s spike protein and attached it to the original COVID-19 strain, leading to a higher mortality rate in a certain species of mice, triggering concern among lawmakers. “The Omicron S-bearing virus robustly escapes vaccine-induced humoral immunity, mainly due…
Boston University Researchers Develop COVID Strain With 80 Percent Kill Rate in Mice
Researchers with Boston University developed a strain of COVID-19 that killed 80 percent of mice infected with it, according to a pre-print study released last week, prompting concern and condemnation. A team of researchers from Boston and Florida extracted the Omicron variant’s spike protein, which they noted has “an unusually large number of mutations.” The…
