IS H5N1 going to be the next human flu PANDEMIC to originate and come out of Communist China (with ties to Bill Gates, George Soros and the other usual profiting corrupt immoral suspects?) Is this the one that DS is hoping to release to keep everyone indoors for the 2020 election? Funny, so many Animal Viruses transmitting to humans seem to be originating and coming out of Communist China.

Influenza viruses originating from avian species (‘avian influenza viruses’) also infect humans. In recent years, there have been large-scale outbreaks of avian influenza viruses in humans. Since their emergence in China in 1996, highly pathogenic avian H5N1 viruses have caused 826 confirmed cases of human infection, resulting in 440 fatalities ( http://www.who.int/influenza/human_animal_interface/H5N1_cumulative_table_archives/en/ data as of 31 March 2015). In 2013, H7N9 influenza viruses emerged in China and have since infected >571 individuals, causing 212 deaths…

The virus was first detected in 1996 in geese in China. Asian H5N1 was first detected in humans in 1997 during a poultry outbreak in Hong Kong and has since been detected in poultry and wild birds in more than 50 countries in Africa, Asia, Europe, and the Middle East.

As the co-inventors of CRISPR/Cas9 gene-editing technology, Jennifer Doudna, Emmanuelle Charpentier and Feng Zhang are typically the first names that spring to mind when CRISPR is being discussed. What you may not know, however, is that the CRISPR mechanism was originally discovered back in the 90s by a particularly humble microbiologist, Francisco Mojica, Professor at the University of Alicante.
The researchers scoured the literature for evidence of previous work outlining the existence of TREPS. They struck gold in the form of a paper published in 1987 by Ishino and colleagues (a huge feat considering that PubMed was yet to be invented). The Japanese researchers had too stumbled across these TREPS in E. coli.1
Mojica's curiosity was sparked. What function did these repeats serve? They existed in bacteria and archaea – thus, surely their origin was ancestral?
"In 1995 we published a paper where we suggested a hypothesis which, nowadays, may sound crazy.
CRISPR was the one that considered all the features of the repeats. We agreed to use it in our future publications." In 2002, the first mention of clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats, or CRISPR, appeared in the scientific literature.
In the early 00s, science entered a "genomics era" in which genome sequencing technologies rapidly advanced, paralleled by increased sequencing data being made available to scientists in public databases.
Such data permitted a revelation for Mojica in his work.
When sequencing one particular strain of E. coli, Mojica discovered that there were sequences between the repeats known as "the spacer regions" of CRISPRs that matched the sequence of a particular virus.
Further exploration of sequencing data revealed that this was the case in many other, extremely different organisms. These DNA sequences protected the prokaryotes from being infected by viruses carrying the same sequence in its genome; the virus simply couldn't infect the cell. And so, he realized: "This is an immune system. This is an adaptive immune system!"
The study was eventually published in the Journal of Molecular Evolution in 2005.
