Scientists Discover HIV-Like "Mutation" Which Makes Coronavirus Extremely Infectious https://www.zerohedge.com/health/coronavirus-hiv-mutation-suggests-nearly-1000x-more-likely-sars-infect "While mainstream scientists continue to perform mental gymnastics to insist that the new coronavirus wasn't man-made, new research from scientists in China and Europe reveal that the disease happens to have an 'HIV-like mutation' which allows it to bind with human cells up to 1,000 times stronger than the Sars virus, according to SCMP [ link: https://www.scmp.com/news/china/society/article/3052495/coronavirus-far-more-likely-sars-bond-human-cells-scientists-say ] "[Discussion of bio-weapon origin possibility] "For those confused, what the latest scientific paper claims is that whereas the Coronavirus may indeed contain a specific HIV-like feature that makes it extremely infectious, that was the result of a rather bizarre "mutation." However, since the scientists did not make the scandalous claim that Chinese scientists had created an airborne version of HIV, but instead blamed a mutation, they will likely not be forced to retract it, even if it the odds of such a "random" mutation taking place naturally are extremely small. ".." COVID-19 is definitely highly infectious, as the number of cases being reported in a fairly short period of time in multiple locations confirms. What is not getting publicity is its morbidity - that is, how many who contract this coronavirus become severely ill? How many recover? How many die? What are their ages? What are the comorbidities - other disorders - suffered by those who become severely ill & recover & for those who die? What are the health practices of those who show only mild symptoms & recover, or even no symptoms at all although testing "positive". This information is not being provided but is needed to reduce the panic message that "everyone is equally susceptible". This conclusion is highly doubtful, but is convenient to promote by politicians seeking to enlarge Government "programs" that will reduce (further) individual choices.
