[quote:PNW_Watcher:MV8yMjIzNzc5XzM3NjkzMzA1Xzk4OTQ4QUYy] And H7N9 is what?... Maybe created in a lab as well? Let's not be so naive as to think the Chinese are the ONLY one's playing God in the world today. [/quote]

Holy sheet!
Senior scientists have criticised the “appalling irresponsibility” of researchers in China who have deliberately created new strains of influenza virus in a veterinary laboratory.
They warned there is a danger that the new viral strains created by mixing bird-flu virus with human influenza could escape from the laboratory to cause a global pandemic killing millions of people.
Lord May of Oxford, a former government chief scientist and past president of the Royal Society, denounced the study published today in the journal Science as doing nothing to further the understanding and prevention of flu pandemics.
