I am writing this because today I was listening to Bongino and he seemed to think they are separate things and wanted to know which one we had funded, and make no mistake, Fauci funded it.
Now here’s my point. They are one and the same. Remember, as I’ve discussed previously, gain of function research involves taking a virus that doesn’t infect humans and altering it so that it is now not only highly transmissible to humans but also lethal. That folks is the definition of developing a biological warfare entity.
The supposed reason is that we can find out what a pathogen that doesn’t exist could do so we can develop a vaccine against something that might never occur.
Now I’m pretty sure that the Fauci’s of the world will tell you that the difference is the reason you are developing the pathogen. If it’s to use as a weapon then it’s bad but if it’s to find a solution to a problem that doesn’t exist then it’s laudable. But just consider this. If you want to develop a lethal bio weapon, one of the first things you need to do before deploying it is to develop an effective antidote so you don’t kill your self and your citizens. Thus gain of function research is the development of bio weapons. If you develop the pathogen and the antidote you have a bio weapon!
