Myxomatosis in rabbits is another warning about Covid. When it was first introduced here it killed just about every rabbit it infected. Then it seemed to become more mild, and people assumed rabbits had developed immunity to it. But when scientists recently checked again to see how it’s going, they discovered something horrifying. The virus has now evolved to be more like HIV/AIDS, and in those years they thought the virus was mild it was actually detroying rabbit immune systems. Once that destruction has reached a certain point, the rabbits die. Just as it took 10 years for people infected with HIV to develop AIDS through immune system damage, as the virus occupied their cells and ate people alive from the inside out.
