In 1977, a newspaper article
suggested that the CIA released African Swine Flu (ASF) in Cuba to
fight against Castro. At the begining of the Covid pandemic, a few
nations felt the need to point their finger at the USA for doing
that again. Through the means of animal testing, we also know that
ferrets can catch and spread Covid-19 just as fast as humans. With
the two seperate diseases, could we have shared notes on the
virulency of the diseases to prevent more problems? Could countries
go so far as creating something so deadly? What are we doing about
potential future pandemics?
