“Apparently almost all, if not all, of the deaths being reported are of Asians, whose breathing passages are violently attacked by the virus, causing death by asphyxiation.”

Coronavirus could be catastrophic for Southeast Asia if this guy is correct

Francis Boyle, a professor of international law at the U. of Illinois in Chicago (see his bio on Wikipedia), a leading expert on bioweapons, who was the author of the Biological Weapons Anti-Terrorist Act, enacted by a unanimous vote of Congress in 1989 and later adopted by the UN, has been interviewed on non-MSM (banned) news outlets the last couple of days.
Boyle says it (coronavirus) is not only a bio-engineered virus but is uniquely dangerous to Asians, although non-Asians can contract it as a flu. It’s highly contagious, and will probably spread everywhere, but isn’t likely to be more dangerous to most other populations than regular influenza viruses (which do kill tens of thousands of people in the US every winter, mostly those with weakened immune systems, when it turns into pneumonia).
The KHOU.COM video cited above is probably correct, since the virus is certainly infecting people of all races, but Boyle says it appears that it is only lethal, in most cases, to Asians, though it is not yet clear what the fatality rate is. If it is low, like 2% or less, it can probably be contained. If it’s much higher than that, it’s likely to get out of control.
Boyle thinks this virus probably escaped from China’s BSL-4 lab, which happens to be located in Wuhan, where it was likely created, and they may have been working on a vaccine for it when it escaped, which is typical in such biolabs in the US, China and Russia — create the pathogen first, then create a vaccine, in case it is ever to be used in a war. He cites an analysis that was initially posted on the website of a major science institute in India shortly after the virus was identified, but the information was soon removed, possibly under pressure from China and the WHO.
Not sure if that is all correct, but Boyle seems to be a very credible expert, who is no longer being allowed to appear on any MSM networks, only on alternative sites that are banned by Twitter, YouTube and Facebook for “fake news.” While those are conservative websites, Boyle is anything but a right-winger, but he had to go to those sites to get his message out. He has long been a proponent of closing all such labs before something like this potential pandemic happens. Of course, it is also possible he is just a scare-monger, trying to pump of sales of his book on bio-weapons that came out a few years ago. But if he is for real, it is clear that the powers-that-be are going to great lengths to suppress factual information about the severity of the outbreak, which Taiwanese sources say may be astronomically greater than China is reporting.
Hard to know what is true, but apparently almost all, if not all, of the deaths being reported are of Asians, whose breathing passages are violently attacked by the virus, causing death by asphyxiation, which seems to bear out what Boyle has been saying, and could be catastrophic for Southeast Asia, though Boyle doesn’t think it will be much of a danger to Europeans, Africa, or the Americas, though Asian people living anywhere may be exposed to it. Scary, especially for Chinese or Korean individuals, and possibly some other Asian ethnic groups, if this really is a racially-targeted bio-weapon, a terrifying thought.
