In the realm of scientific research, a recent study conducted by Chinese scientists has sparked controversy. The researchers created a coronavirus variant, GX_P2V, which proved fatal to humanized mice in all instances, primarily due to late-stage brain infections. The study, which has been criticized by Western experts as both dangerous and unnecessary, involved the cloning of a mutant version of the virus that was able to infect both golden hamsters and mutant mice. Despite the criticism, the World Health Organization and other global elites have been discussing preparations for a potential “Disease X,” with the WHO director suggesting that COVID-19 could be considered the first Disease X.

Central banks are being advised to consider debt restructurings and elevated inflation to address the debt overhang.
