COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) virus was cultured to attack human cells, according to research
By Steve Watson
A scientific study in Australia has found that SARS-CoV-2, the coronavirus that has led to a so-called pandemic, was created in a lab, barring some “remarkable coincidence” that led to the virus naturally evolving to be optimized to attack human cells.
The study was led by Nikolai Petrovsky, a vaccine researcher at Flinders University. The scientists in his team discovered that the coronavirus is optimized for penetration into human cells, rather than animal cells, which means that the theory that it emerged from an animal market and jumped to humans naturally is a lie.
Lifesite News reports that the scientists used a version of the novel coronavirus collected in the earliest days of the outbreak and applied computer models to test its capacity to bind to certain cell receptor enzymes, called ACE2, that allow the virus to infect human and animal cells to varying degrees of efficacy.
They found that the novel coronavirus most powerfully binds with human ACE2, and with variously lesser degrees of effectiveness with animal versions of the receptor.
The Study notes that a virus would be expected to have highest affinity for the receptor in its original host species, e.g. bat, with a lower initial binding affinity for the receptor of any new host, e.g. humans. However, in this case, the affinity of SARS-CoV-2 is higher for humans than for the putative original host species, bats, or for any potential intermediary host species. The authors state this means that the virus is artificially manipulated to become specialized for human cell penetration by living previously in human cells in a laboratory.
