The World Health Organization is investigating a claim by an Australian researcher that the swine flu virus circling the globe may have been created as a result of human error, Australian newspaper The Age reported Wednesday.
“Adrian Gibbs, 75, who collaborated on research that led to the development of Roche’s Tamiflu drug, said in an interview that he intends to publish a report suggesting the new strain may have accidentally evolved in eggs scientists use to grow viruses and drugmakers use to make vaccines,” the newspaper said.
The report added the World Health Organization is studying the claim that the virus that has so far killed dozens and made thousands sick may have been created in a lab by mistake.
