   I'm wondering if the genetically enhanced baby in Metzl's novel is anything like the Captain ~America~ China that the CCP army is building.

   And - what do you think? Could Yuri-freeze your pet's head-Deigin be the inspiration for "Noam Heller, a brilliant researcher exploring new technologies to reverse-age cancer and other cells." This seems like to be too much asimilarity to just be a "coincidence."

   The difference between us and Metzl is that we would all agree it is a lab escape if there were convincing scientific evidence for it

   Correct. And we continue to look very hard for it - it's just, well, there's nothing....

   The problem of course is that there are :clown_face: like Asher (that Fox News interview with the Super-Soldiersabove is really something to watch) that think yeah super villain virologist, Communist china, scary BSL-4 labs, world domination - all adds up.

   Or as Alina (note her fascination with magic and Harry Potter) would say - just connect the dots!

   I'm convinced that Metzl and the other authors are just setting up their next block-buster novel - notoriety sell books.

   Must be a book, with a movie option
