Upon my thorough research of the chimera virus I think it is safe to say that this is definitely the most complex and fascinating disease ever known to man. It is so complicated that I myself do not yet fully understand it. Symptoms of the virus range on a wide scale unlike anything that has ever been seen. They include a runny nose, sore throat, coughing, soreness, headaches, high fever, hemorrhaging, brain damage, small amounts of pustules around the body, and most notably the mental derangement of those infected to the point where they become self-cannibalistic. Chimera spreads through bodily fluids, aerosol droplets, and even through the air on occasion and has devastating effects on the respiratory and nervous systems.
I was quick to realize that this was a virus which had definitely been engineered and recombined in some sort of way. It included components of several viruses, such as rhinovirus (the common cold). The symptoms related to high fever, headaches, hemorrhaging, and so forth strongly resembled that of a viral hemorrhagic fever and indeed this was so as further research on the disease showed that it contained portions of the Ebola virus.
The most curious find in the strain of chimera that I was studying was that it included nuclear polyhedrosis virus, a disease more commonly associated with butterflies. It seems that this portion of the disease was used to enter the human brain, and in doing so induced the repression of the HPRT gene, which is commonly associated with the genetic disease Lesch-Nyhan. The repression of HPRT leading to Lesch-Nyhan like symptoms explains the self-cannbialistic aspects of the chimera disease.
But perhaps the most troubling discovery regarding the overall pathology of the chimera virus is that it contains portions of smallpox, a disease once eradicated half a century ago and only held in vaults in Atlanta and Vector, Russia. The fact that smallpox has made its way out of these well-protected facilities and potentially into dangerous hands is not a good sign at all. It brings into question issues of international security and more importantly, the threat of biological weapons. Is chimera in fact a biological weapon? We are none too sure but all signs point toward it being so.
