FEARS KILLER ALASKAPOX IS BIOWEAPON!

-

A DEADLY virus that can leap from animals to humans has killed a patient in Alaska — and experts suspect the bug may be a new bioweapon unleashed by enemies of America! Researcher­s in Alaska have been monitoring the bizarre virus, Alaskapox, which typically occurred only in small rodents, since an elderly man died this winter.

Now state officials warn the pox could morph into a new pandemic — and intelligen­ce community sources tell The National ENQUIRER they fear the disease is another virus weaponized by China!

As The ENQUIRER previously revealed, killer COVID was manufactur­ed in China’s Wuhan Institute of Virology and U.S. spies fear this mutated bug may have similar origins.

“There’s a good chance that Alaskapox will be found in animal population­s well beyond the state’s borders and even beyond North America,” notes Link Olson, curator of mammals for the University of Alaska Museum of the North.

In the first known human fatality, the patient had a compromise­d immune system. Doctors suspect the man, whose name was not released, contracted the pox via a scratch from a cat that hunted small animals. Even with treatment over the course of five months, the man died after suffering renal and respirator­y failure. University of Alaska-Fairbanks biologist Falk Huettmann has called for more diligent research, believing there may have been other severe cases that weren’t diagnosed as Alaskapox.

“I totally appreciate that it’s a new case, that people are surprised,” says Huettmann. “But if you know the reality and history of diseases, we shouldn’t be surprised. Everything is possible now.” That includes the possibilit­y that Alaskapox was sinisterly manipulate­d to spread from animals to humans!

“It certainly could be a bioweapon,” says pathology expert Dr. Gabe Mirkin, “and it can be deadly.”
