The emergence of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) and Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS)-CoV underscores the threat of cross-species transmission events leading to outbreaks in humans. Here we examine the disease potential of a SARS-like virus, SHC014-CoV, which is currently circulating in Chinese horseshoe bat populations.
Using the SARS-CoV reverse genetics system, we generated and characterized a chimeric virus expressing the spike of bat coronavirus SHC014 in a mouse-adapted SARS-CoV backbone.

Who is FUNDING THESE PLACES??
They knew this was coming back in 2013

I don’t understand your question. Obviously some solid research, regardless of funding - this is what science does.
WTH are we giving money to a lab in CHINA???
Warning in Abstracts from 2013-2015 articles
November 2013
“Our results provide the strongest evidence to date that Chinese horseshoe bats are natural reservoirs of SARS-CoV, and that intermediate hosts may not be necessary for direct human infection by some bat SL-CoVs. They also highlight the importance of pathogen-discovery programs targeting high-risk wildlife groups in emerging disease hotspots as a strategy for pandemic preparedness.”
and
“Understanding the bat origin of human coronaviruses is helpful for the prediction and prevention of another pandemic emergence in the future.”
and
“Our work suggests a potential risk of SARS-CoV re-emergence from viruses currently circulating in bat populations.”
And if they knew this was coming 5-7 years ago, WTF haven’t they gotten a vaccine ready in the interim? Are they busy playing tiddlywinks at the CDC and NIH?
This is a grave danger to the human race and these diabolical world government and foundation scumbags are in the thick of it. Read up on AGENDA 21 your will be surprised at what they have planned for us all
