Was Coronavirus developed from efforts to create HIV vaccine?

Wuhan lab scientists created “variants of the coronavirus
without malicious intent” possibly aiming for an HIV vaccine, a Russian
Microbiologist Professor Petr Chumakov has claimed.

In a report published by The Sun, the coronavirus is the
result of Wuhan scientists doing “absolutely crazy things” in their laboratory.

“It’s too early to blame anyone. But no one excludes
that behind the scientists stood curators who directed actions in another
direction which they needed,” said Prof. Chumakov

The world renowned expert claimed their aim was to study the
pathogenicity of the virus and not “with malicious intent” to deliberately
create a man-made killer.

The chief researcher at the Engelhardt Institute of Molecular
Biology in Moscow further said, “In China, scientists at the Wuhan Laboratory
have been actively involved in the development of various coronavirus variants
for over ten years.”

“Moreover, they did this, supposedly not with the aim of
creating pathogenic variants, but to study their pathogenicity. They did
absolutely crazy things, in my opinion.

“For example, inserts in the genome, which gave the virus
the ability to infect human cells.

“Now all this has been analysed.

“The picture of the possible creation of the current coronavirus
is slowly emerging.”

He added that there are several inserts –the substitutions
of the natural sequence of the genome, which gave it special properties.

“It is interesting that the Chinese and Americans who worked
with them published all their works in the open (scientific) press. I even
wonder why this background comes to people very slowly, said the professor.

He urged for set guidelines and legislations to regulate the
work with the genomes of such dangerous viruses.

“I think that an investigation will nevertheless be
initiated, as a result of which new rules will be developed that regulate the
work with the genomes of such dangerous viruses.

The Coronavirus, commonly known as COVID-19, pandemic has
infected over 2,639,243 people across the world, killing at least 183,820 with
715,734 people recovering.
