they don't make gain-of-function viruses...avian flu, swine flu - Sasha Latypova, My 24, 2024

"I assure everyone that, first of all, nobody can make viruses in the labs—or anything alive, really—and secondly, they don't make gain-of-function viruses...avian flu, swine flu, [they're] false narrative[s]."Retired pharma R&D executive Sasha Latypova (@sasha_latypova) outlines for Shannon Joy (@ShannonJoyRadio) how the idea of viruses made in labs—"or anything alive, really"—is largely a fictional narrative. Latypova notes that bacterial toxins, particularly in people's water supply, are the much realer problem for health. "People think it's some sort of a new thing that they now can make gain-of-function viruses and I assure everyone that, first of all, nobody can make viruses in the labs—or anything alive, really—and secondly, they don't make gain-of-function viruses," Latypova says. The pharma executive adds, "This is an area that, on purpose, has a lot of mythology around it. But it goes back decades, if not centuries." Latypova notes that while "bacteria are real," and they can excrete toxins (or perform beneficial functions), once key problems were solved with water sanitation "this whole mythology about viruses started being created." Bacterial toxins "tend to be associated with things like sewage from humans and animals getting into the water. And those bacteria, like E. coli and other types, can create secretions that are toxic and can be transmitted through water," Latypova says, noting that that phenomenon "was noticed...thousands of years ago."
