#2 Perhaps the best article so far this year to purport to use English as a language and yet be utterly indecipherable to the naked mind.

To paraphrase the meme of the Marxist left -
China Scientists Bad?

#4 To make a long story short: they spliced together parts of a really nasty respiratory virus with bits and pieces of FIP.

FIP stands for Feline Infectious Peritonitis.

Which you can read about here:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feline_infectious_peritonitis.

Which means after three years of saying "This is like FIP for humans" I found out the bastards actually probably spliced FIP bits into their SARS second draft.

Which means it's going to be persistent in the population and difficult to vaccinate against, and a pain in the ass whenever it mutates to the worse form.
