They’re At It Again….Wuhan Scientists Create Mosquitoes That Can Inject Humans with Deadly Viruses

Scientists at the Wuhan Institute of Virology have crossed a terrifying new line. In a study just published in Science Advances, Wuhan researchers engineered Aedes aegypti mosquitoes to become flying weapons of mass destruction. They irradiated the insects to sterilize them, then fed them blood containing recombinant viruses. These modified viruses carry proteins from deadly pathogens like Nipah, which kills 40 to 75 percent of infected people, and rabies. The engineered viruses replicate inside the mosquitoes and accumulate in their salivary glands. When the mosquito bites, it delivers this viral payload directly into the bloodstream, like a flying hypodermic needle...
