Important Takeaways:
- ‘I Could Make It Infectious In Months’: Former CDC Director Sounds Alarm Over Bird Flu Experiments
- Former CDC Director Dr. Robert Redfield warned last week on NewsNation:
- “I’m obviously most worried about bird flu. Right now, it takes five amino acid changes for it to be effectively infecting humans. That’s a pretty heavy species barrier – but this virus is already in 26 mammal species, as you most recently saw cattle. But in the laboratory, I could make it highly infectious for humans in just months.”
- Redfield continued:
- “That’s the real threat. That’s the real biosecurity threat that these university labs are doing bio-experiments that are intentionally modifying viruses – and I think bird flu is going to be the cause of the Great Pandemic – where they’re teaching these viruses to be more infectious for humans.”
