Over in the science sub-reddit on the Reddit website (which I hate using) some people are promoting the idea that newer variants of the Covid virus could start having longer incubation period’s which could also eventually lead to greater long term deaths. However, usually longer incubation period‘s are only possible with strains of the virus that are less lethal.
The way a typical virus works is that it invades cells in your body and quickly replicates itself which damages cells in infected places like your lungs. The rapid duplication can cause massive cellular damage to the victim which can lead to death. In healthy individuals, that death may be also be assisted by an over-active immune response creating a cytokine storm which can cause death.
The typical virus doesn’t hide quietly for days, weeks or years contributing to long-term health problems that end up killing the victim. The AIDS virus was not a typical virus in that it targeted mainly the immune system, hiding in the body and then killing a person over the long term by destroying their immune system.
As a novel member of the Covid family, the Covid-19 virus should act like a severe flu or cold virus. People should feel sick, they will look sick, they will go for medical help and if they die they will die within a few days. Most people were not immune to the novel Covid-19 virus and so they got sick and we saw many medically vulnerable people die relatively quickly in days or weeks.
To assume that a new Covid virus would learn to hide like the AIDS virus, spread quietly and develop high long-term lethality is a big leap. However, early on in the pandemic, some Indian scientists did find genetic markers from the AIDS virus in the genetic code for the Covid-19 virus. Of course, that report was suppressed and discredited, correct?
So, if the Covid virus eventually starts acting like the AIDS virus, well then, people like me are going to suspect that the Covid virus was engineered in the Wuhan viral institute as a biological weapon.
But no, you normie folks should keep believing that a bat flew to Wuhan and bit a pangolin in a wet market (adjacent to a viral research lab) and that natural process created the new virus.
That belief and the experimental vaccine treatments will keep everyone safe, I’m sure.
Well, reddit is full of fucking idiots.
No. It's a Coronavirus, not a Lentivirus. Are these people scientifically retarded?
Please tell me none of them are actual medical professionals.... the stupidity and lack of intelligence in the medical community is awful enough as it is.
All the daddy's money soyboys they've hired to infiltrate science for the past 25 years has watered it down badly.
There's been no reliable replication of this. It's possible, but it hasn't manifested in any substantial way by any means of replication. Replicate it and prove it.
Again, it's not a Lentivirus. The "AIDS" Virus - HIV-1 and HIV-2 are lentiviruses, like FIV in Felines and SIV in simians. They are not Coronaviruses.
The mRNA vaccines on the other hand are far more amplified than the Delta Variant (remember, the delta variant is a cold, which is what most Coronaviruses mutate into.) and would be more of a concern for this type of thing, since we don't know what they spliced into it and it's mRNA based, so you're messing with a lot more than if you were to get the virus naturally.
Whatever is going on at reddit, as usual, is anti-science.
