Play with fire crehitos 
'This should be totally forbidden, it's playing with fire': Experts condemn Boston lab for creating a new deadly Covid strain with an 80% kill rate — warning it could spark a 'lab-generated pandemic'
- Researchers added Omicron's spike protein to the original Wuhan Covid strain
- Omicron's spike is highly mutated which made it the most infectious variant ever
- Eight in 10 mice infected with the lab-created strain died at Boston University lab
DailyMail.com revealed the team had made a hybrid virus — combining Omicron and the original Wuhan strain — that killed 80 per cent of mice in a study.
The revelation exposes how dangerous virus manipulation research continues to go on even in the US, despite fears similar practices may have started the pandemic.
In the new research, which has not been peer-reviewed, a team of researchers from Boston and Florida extracted Omicron's spike protein — the unique structure that binds to and invades human cells.
It has always been present in the virus but has become more evolved over time. Omicron has dozens of mutations on its spike protein that made it so infectious.
Researchers attached Omicron's spike to the original wildtype strain that first emerged in Wuhan at the start of the pandemic.
Boston University CREATES new Covid strain that has an 80% kill rate
The variant - which is a hybrid of Omicron and the original Wuhan virus - killed 80 per cent of mice infected with it at Boston University.
These fukking nerds bored or what?
