In a 2004 news release from the CIDRAP (The Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy it was reported that in an 'experiment' the CDC was to mix avian, and human flu viruses in a pandemic study. The present Swine Flu that hit so hard in Mexico was reported to be two parts swine,one part avian and one part human. The April 24, 2009 article from Breitbart.com reports "This is the first time that we've seen an avian strain, two swine strains and a human strain," said Daigle, adding that the virus had influenza strains from European and Asian swine, but not from North American swine". Was this present outbreak of the Swine Flu a man-made virus and the result of an experiment conducted by the CDC?
- The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) will soon launch experiments designed to combine the H5N1 virus and human flu viruses and then see how the resulting hybrids affect animals. The goal is to assess the chances that such a "reassortant" virus will emerge and how dangerous it might be.
viruses containing two or more pieces of nucleic acid (segmented genome) from different parents. Such viruses are produced in cells coinfected with different strains of a given virus. ]
- CDC officials confirmed the plans for the research as described recently in media reports, particularly in a Canadian Press (CP) story. Read about it here.
