The Chinese military investigated weaponizing the coronavirus in 2015. They predicted that the third world war would be biological warfare, according to reports by the media. These claims quote bombshell documents obtained by the US State Department where the Chinese Military commanders talk about the bioweapon.
Virus as a biological-weapon
US officials uncovered proof on Chinese military scientists from their investigations of COVID-19 origin. A virus can be manipulated into disease and then weaponized, reads the paper. As a result, a bioweapon attack can lead to a collapse of the medical system in enemy territory.
What are experts saying?
Australian politician James Paterson and British politician Tom Tugendhat MP believe that the document raises concerns on the origin of coronavirus. They are concerned about China’s interest in bioweapons. The pandemic has caused over 3 million deaths so far.
Who is behind the paper?
The listed authors of the document are all scientists and weapons experts from China’s People’s Liberation Army. The paper is most likely not a fake as per the expert’s opinion. It has to be clear that the paper is subject to interpretation since it implies that the scientists were thinking about bioweapons. There is a link to how different strains of the coronavirus can have military application and their deployment.
Conclusion
Several scientists have reported that there is little evidence that the virus is man-made. China is known for its high-risk research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology.
Though the distance between ground zero at Wuhan Seafood Market and the institute is less but the clarity regarding its escape from a secret lab in Wuhan is lacking.
