This version of SARS was clearly a genetically created bioweapon. It had spliced elements of human, cow and mouse viruses which is not possible in nature. Coronaviruses do not jump species – like infecting animals and spreading to humans.
Another tell-tale sign is that the original SARS did not match any known virus. At first officials claimed it was an A virus, then a B virus.
John Watson, professor of respiratory diseases at the Health Protection Agency states that no healthcare workers exposed to the new SARS have come down with the disease. According to a HPA statement: “Preliminary inquiries have revealed no evidence of illness in contacts of these two cases, including health-care workers. Based on what we know about other coronaviruses, many of these contacts will already have passed the period when they could have caught the virus from the infected person.”
