Swine Flu May Be Human Error, Scientist

Says

WHO wants to know

whether evidence that the virus may have been developed in a laboratory

can be corroborated

12 May 2009

The World Health Organization is investigating an Australian researcher’s

claim that the swine flu virus circling the globe may have been created

as a result of human error. Adrian Gibbs, who collaborated on research

that led to the development of Roche Holding AG’s Tamiflu drug, said in

an interview today that he intends to publish a report suggesting the

new strain may have 'accidentally' evolved in eggs scientists use to

grow viruses and drugmakers use to make vaccines.

Lab

Escape: Gibbs said his analysis

supports research by scientists including Richard Webby, a virologist at

St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital in Memphis... His research found

the rate of genetic mutation in the new virus outpaced that of the most

closely related viruses found in pigs, suggesting it evolved outside

of swine, Gibbs said.

Human error? Sounds like one of the very biggest human errors to me to

jeopardize the lives of millions of people.
