Scientists of the country created the terrible Ebola virus in the laboratory in China. It is said that this lab-made virus is capable of transformation and is more dangerous than the corona virus.

According to the Daily Mail, Chinese scientists conducted this study to find out a disease and its symptoms in the lab using a part of the dreaded Ebola virus.

The results of this research conducted in the lab of Hebei Medical University have already been published in the scientific journal Science Direct. It was also published in the Chinese journal Virologica Sinica earlier this month.

Chinese researchers say the lab-made lethal virus was injected into a group of hamsters. All hamsters died within three days of inoculation.

Symptoms that are seen in the human body in case of Ebola, were also seen in the body of these hamsters. The worst of these is that several parts of the body are damaged.

For this study, Chinese scientists chose an infectious disease that attacks cattle. Then he added the protein found in the Ebola virus. And with this protein it is possible to attack the cells of the body and the disease spreads quickly throughout the body.

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), between 2014 and 2016, the Ebola virus broke out in several countries in West Africa.

Allegedly, the coronavirus that caused the pandemic was also created in a Chinese lab, which is still a concern for the world. However, denying this accusation, the researchers said that they have researched the disease in the lab. Through this, they want to establish a model for disease prevention.
