What IS "gain-of-function" anyway?

. . . Gain of function research "is employed with the intention of better understanding current and future pandemics.[3] In vaccine development, gain-of-function research is conducted in the hope of gaining a head start on a virus and being able to develop a vaccine or therapeutic before it emerges.[3] The term "gain of function" is sometimes applied more narrowly to refer to "research which could enable a pandemic-potential pathogen to replicate more quickly or cause more harm in humans or other closely-related mammals."[4][5]"

“Gain-of-function” is the euphemism for biological research aimed at increasing the virulence and lethality of pathogens and viruses. GoF research is government funded; its focus is on enhancing the pathogens’ ability to infect different species and to increase their deadly impact as airborne pathogens and viruses.

  • Fauci and the CDC Will Never Tell Us if COVID-19 Was Man-made "Since the outbreak of COVID-19, there have been questions about whether the virus originated in the Wuhan Virology Institute in China rather than a “wet market” where the meat of animals like the horseshoe bat is sold to consumers. Not only were these questions not answered but anyone asking them was scorned, ridiculed, and even banned from social media platforms for even asking.

    "Twitter, YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram had all joined Facebook in taking active measures to ban, suppress any questions about the possibility that COVID-19 was a lab experiment gone wrong. It was the stuff of crackpot conspiracy theorists.  The mainstream media carried that message along for them.

    "After banning them for over a year, Facebook recently lifted a ban on posts that claimed COVID-19 was man-made. This change followed on the heels of an announcement by President Biden calling the intelligence community for a report on the origins of the virus. This directive is itself a reversal. Previously, President Biden had stated that the World Health Organization (WHO) should be advising the world on the origins of COVID-19." . . .

  • Propaganda at Its Best: Chinese claim US Army started the coronavirus  "Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian, posted on Twitter that the U.S. Army could have brought the COVID-19, or coronavirus, to China and that the virus may not have originated in Wuhan as previously thought." . . .

  • If CNN and MSNBC like this story, I posit the the theory will be taught on campuses to young skulls full of mush who will riot and burn as a result.
