SARS

Rense: SARS - A Lab Accident? From Patricia Doyle, PhD
research for vaccine regarding feline infectious peritonitis which is a feline coronavirus. If the research was ongoing in Europe, it is quite possible that China was also studying feline coronavirus.
It appears that SARS first infected the medical community...and then the public. I believe that SARS was caused by a lab accident.
The Chinese are admitting that SARS agent might have originated in civet cats, but have not gone as far as stating that the agent got loose as part of research. Quite possibly these cats were used in research. The research below uses mouse models.
I, however, do not think that SARS agent jumped from cat to man. I think it is possible that man infected cat. Although, at this time, it would be premature for me to make emphatic statements regarding either scenerio.
If they experiment with coronaviruses in Europe, there is no reason to doubt that China would be researching coronaviruses as well.
