"This underscores a spillover risk of GX_P2V into humans and provides a unique model for understanding the pathogenic mechanisms of SARS-CoV-2-related viruses," the authors wrote.
All the mice infected with the virus died within just eight days, which researchers noted was a "surprisingly" rapid death rate. GX_P2V had infected the lungs, bones, eyes, tracheas and brains of the dead mice.
Francois Balloux, an epidemiology expert at the University College London's Genetics Institute, slammed the research as "terrible" and "scientifically totally pointless."
