Shi Zhengli Continues Controversial Virus Research
Shi Zhengli, a prominent Chinese scientist known as 'Batwoman', continues to conduct controversial coronavirus research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, despite the ongoing scrutiny surrounding the origins of Covid-19. A recent congressional report concluded that the 'weight of the evidence' suggests the pandemic may have resulted from a lab leak, a theory that has gained traction among scientists and officials. Zhengli's research involves creating 'customised' coronavirus receptors, which could enable viruses to infect different species, including humans. Robert Redfield, former director of the CDC, warned that such experiments could have 'potentially catastrophic consequences', as they involve modifying non-pathogenic viruses to become infectious to other species. The ongoing research raises significant safety concerns, with experts calling it 'ill-advised'. As the pandemic's origins remain a contentious topic, Zhengli's work continues to stir debate within the scientific community.
