Dutch Researcher Creates A Super-Influenza Virus With The Potential To Kill Half the World’s Population

H5N1 VirusesVia DoctorTipster.com:

A Dutch researcher has created a virus with the potential to kill half of the planet’s population. Now, researchers and experts in bioterrorism debate whether it is a good idea to publish the virus creation ”recipe”. However, several voices argue that such research should have not happened in the first place.

The virus is a strain of avian influenza H5N1 genetically modified to be extremely contagious. It was created by researcher Ron Fouchier of the Erasmus Medical Center Rotterdam, Netherlands. The work was first presented at a conference dedicated to influenza, that took place in September in Malta.

Avian influenza emerged in Asia about 10 years ago. Since then there were fewer than 600 infection cases reported in humans. On the other hand, Fouchier’s genetically modified strain is extremely contagious and dangerous, killing about 50% of infected patients. The former strain did not represent a global threat, as transmission from human to human is rare. Or, at least, it was before Fouchier genetically modified it.

    The first line especially but the whole post is one of the most absurd and dumbest responses I’ve ever seen. You’re telling me all this while defending pro-genocide posts. Fuck yourself

    That’s what a lot of these people think. So the morally outraged friends of the planet that hate evil war and capitalism’s exploiting humans are in favor of unleashing a virus that will kill millions. How so easily moral outrage slips right into immorality!

    Try reading the book. That’s how it was supposed to be taken in. Hollywood always screws up good books.

    wow, what a psycho.
    telling everybody what god thinks, telling people to kill themselves, cussing people out…BECAUSE HE’S ONE OF THE GOOD PEOPLE AND ALL YOU FUCKING SCUMBAGS NEED TO FUCK YOURSELVES AND DIE BECAUSE HE SAYS SO, SEE!! FUCK YOU!!!

    lol, wow.
    people really need to be wiped off the fucking planet already. starting with that guy.

  • gwen jackson

    roflmao, did he really just say he doesn’t see how he’s being hypocritical?!?!

  • gwen jackson

    let me guess… two people have pointed it out and you still don’t see how you’re being hypocritical, YOU FUCKING SCUMBAG?

    then you’re not a hypocrite, just a plain old idiot. i hope the flu only kills you.

  • gwen jackson

    so funny, the thought of humans dying infuriates you to such a frothy little frenzy… you’re such a perfect example of why this species can’t go extinct fast enough.

  • gwen jackson

    and…when… YOU… start morally advocating death of anyone who disagrees with you, it’s not “morality slipping into immorality” because… oh, wait, it IS.
    Face it, you despise humanity as much as the rest of us do.
    Look how you flip your fucking lid anytime anyone disagrees with you–you’ve got real fucking problems.
    won’t you love it when everyone is dead of freak-flu and no one can disagree with you? but YOU won’t die. because YOU’RE right.

    You’re an asshole and probably stupid. I was responding to the posters that are in favor of unleashing a deadly virus that will kill millions. Fuck You is right. And you too bitch.

    I would be totally cool with cutting our population in half (or more) with a deadly disease.  It would only benefit the species and the planet in the long-term.  It’s better than a global nuclear war, which I still welcome.

    The whole Oil based American military Industrial Machine, worthless in the face of this new enemy! It cannot be threatened, shot to death, bombed out of existence, mounts no jet fighter squadrons, has no fields of tanks, no foot soldiers, no great battle-ships, no missiles, no bombers, no alliances, no floating armadas, no aircraft carriers, no denatured uranium weapons, not a single land mine, no cluster bombs, and kills all but the vaccinated, at no cost at all. Do we see here the final ‘MAD’ (mutually Assured Destruction)  weapon, the one that can turn mankind towards brotherhood, and mutually beneficial activities over war? Social planning in place of battle field strategies, organized birth control measures, humane theorems of sustainable survival over annihilations,  genocide, and mayhem?
    Will Americans pervert this into a tool of war? Genocidal sprayings of enemies? By troops well immune, vaccinated? Is this a solution or just the continuation of mankinds quest to extort from others, steal the products of the creative the working classes the poor, the down-trodden by the self appointed elitists?
    Christ never imagined such a world. He never mentioned the nuclear bombs, or this new influenza – Revelations speaks of horrendous end times. Will this and other diseases such as E-Bola, now stored in Bio-labs all over the world, be released in the final turmoil? Soon? By the Uber-Rich Elites?
    Can we look to the Rising Pan Eurasian Empire for a few more peaceful decades?Can we look to the ‘Controlled Demolition” of the U.S. Dollar by Asian financiers as a step towards world Peace? Will the consumption of 70% of the worlds resources by the U.S. mark a time of plenty for others? Some believe this is so. If they are wrong, only bad can follow.

    The Dutch also posses Anti-Virus Technology and just issued a 12 Hour Deadline; “The EU, US, China, Russia, Germany, India, Japan, and the entire planet will surrender to Dutch Control and be Assimilated into Dutch. Failure to Comply will result in Complete Virus Warfare Killing 60% or 4 Billion people on the Planet. We are the Dutch. Existence as you know it is over. We will add your biological and technological distinctiveness to our own. Resistance is futile.” End of Message.
