Nearly three dozen people have been sickened by a new virus spreading in China — with scientists warning it is too early to tell if it is deadly or spreads among humans.

The Langya henipavirus — or LayV — appears to be jumping from animals in parts of China, nearly three years after the coronavirus pandemic started there.

It belongs to a family of viruses that “are known to infect humans and cause fatal disease,” a Chinese-led team of international scientists wrote in a peer-reviewed study in the New England Journal of Medicine.
==============================================================
Gotta blame the Chinese for releasing this new virus. Right?

At least stupid Trump is not in office saying it is a hoax or it will just disappear.

The NYPost is about as reliable as the Enquirer and very sensationalized. They’re the online version of the trash papers you find at the end of supermarket aisles. I’m pretty sure they’ve also posted sightings of Big Foot on the cover dozens of times.

A quick google search will show that the number is 35 SINCE 2018.

The novel Langya henipavirus (LayV) was first detected in the north-eastern provinces of Shandong and Henan in late 2018 but was only formally identified by scientists last week.
