Do you guys think the T-Virus could actually happen?

I really don't know but i actually think this could actually happen. After doing further research
I learned that the T-Virus is made up of HIV, RABIES, AND EBOLA. All these 3 make up the main
part of the T-Virus. What if some crazed scientist actually decided to combine the 3 and construct
the T-Virus? I mean it could actually happen.

I just wanna see what some of your guys' opinions are.
Please do not say anything negative. I was just curious on what you guys might think.
If you have something wrong with this please keep your comments to yourself.

Haha, don't worry. It wasn't actually Ebola, but Ebora. The T-Virus also needs the fictional "progenitor virus" to exist. The flowers that contain this virus are also fictional. While it is possible for something like the T-Virus to exist (debatable to the max I know), it won't be created through the same means as it was in the RE universe. I'm not quite sure what would happen if you combined those viruses in real life, but it wouldn't reanimate the dead. The HIV virus would probaby just kill off the others or something. In conclusion, no way to reanimate the dead has been found as of yet, so don't worry. Unless of course you actually wanted a zombie apocalypse, in which case, get help fast.

Ah dang, it is too bad he said 'don't say anything negative', I was about to put a bad comment...

Don't worry Preator345, that is not something you have to worry about.

I am not sure where you heard of T being made of those ingredients, but it was created with Progenitor and Ebora as well as Leech DNA. And as NiteCrawler has already said, I have to more than agree, while there are all kinds of viruses in the world, especially in places like Africa, they probably do not have many, if any of the same effects of the fictional viruses, but in times we might just see.....:)da da dunnn......

There are lotions and moisturizers that can reanimate dead skin cells, so it isn't impossible.

Yes, if skins is not completely dead...

I think there will be virus outbreak... But not zombie

Alright. Thanks guys.

I guess even "zombies" outbreak is possible,but more the kind of 28 days later.

but after all,who knows what we will discover in the virus domain?
no im not saying they will discover the T-virus,but atleast somethin like the T-virus is possible:reactivate dead cells,"reactivate" the main functions of the brain etc...

just look at the victims of Chernobyl to see that mutations is something real...(yeah they do not look like lickers,but still its mutation)...

Keep in mind that even the whole RE zombie outbreak was a mistake. Umbrela intended to create the perfect BOWs.

So yeah... Why not? A mistake like that could happen in the near (or far) future.

Just remember Orwell.

Some scientist believe that they find bacterias that can eat radioactive waste... And microorganisms can take 5000 more doses of radiation than humans before dying... Viruses are kinda same, but again bacterias and viruses are not the same...

I thought that T-Lotion at Wal-Mart looked awfully suspicious...

I think that if a batch of rouge scientists get their hands on some virus ingredents there could very well be an outbreak

If i was 100% honest i would say there is a high chance of something along the lines of a T-virus, G virus, T-veronica virus etc outbreak....when you look at the scientific side of it all. Viruses as we know already have the ability to mutate, they can become more resilliant and stronger..therefore they show signs of evolving whereas humans remain static, science has always said that it believes the cures to most diseases on this planet are actually in mother nature itself so the plant theory can have a strong basis, all it takes is the right scientific approach....science can already grow new limbs and organs without a human host, we can create clones of animals and humans have yet to get the go ahead...heck we can even choose the sex of the baby we want and what we want it to inherit, we can also use animal organs for human transplants and heck knows how far stem cell research can go not to forget DNA research, human DNA has the ability to mutate already....there are people out there who have super sensitive hearing or are able to do things others cannot...it's just a matter of harnessing it all...and in the wrong hands this could be developed into some kind of virus that could change the human DNA beyond it's natural formation.....as for an outbreak...i'm 100% on that...after all this is a country where the government kept it secret that they had labs with certain viruses being tested..i.e smallpox and not only that the foot and mouth outbreak recently was caused by a leak in a lab....so yeah i reckon they could mess up and infect us all at some stage...it's just a waiting game......

On the other hand....if there ever was a mass zombie/BOW apocalypse just think about it....we RE fans would have such a huge chance of survival because we have lived it already....

Yeah but,Spencer controls Umbrella...
so even if he didnt get involved in the events who's occured in 1998,
he ordered most of the actions of Umbrella(like sending in the U.B.C.S.)
but yeah,after giving his directives,he just let the "smaller" leaders handle the situation.

No I think Wesk is right, it was Spencer, not the company, as the company Umbrella was just a front for the illegal research. Spencer has been trying to achieve this all along, with the Tyrants, the Wesker Children, it is apparent that he wanted a strong 'soldier' type of thing to help him rule the world, and having them controlled was essential, which is why the T-103's were so great, and things like TALOS, those are what were probably going to be his soldiers.

I think that if something like the T-Virus was to be created, the scientists should use radioactive contamination's mutation ability as a base, as
PublicEnemy said:

"just look at the victims of Chernobyl to see that mutations is something real...(yeah they do not look like lickers,but still its mutation)..."

It really has the ability to cause mutations, so, anyone wanting to create something like the t-virus to kill us all, start from radioactive contamination.

Also, about the Uroboros Project, the purpose (to reduce overpopulation using natural selection and giving those with advanced DNA advantages) is kind of right. The world has problems because of overpopulation (e.g.: 20 cars don't pollute much, but 6 billion cars cause a lot of trouble). The Uroboros idea is correct except that it is far too selective (only 10 people would survive), I'd say that about 1 billion people should survive and the other 5,5 billion wouldn't become monsters, but would simply die.

Maybe, when technology really develops, using the concepts of natural selection, something like Uroboros could be created, I rather hope that'd happen even if my DNA'd be rejected.

I still think the radioactive poisoning would be just... poisoning. It ruins ones body, it wouldn't make much of a "mutant". T-virus was designed for making bio organic weapons. If something like this would be done they'd propably take more time to think about it rather than start shoving plutonium down the test subjects' throats.

On the actual case, if some zombie outbreak really happened (and it will, it's only a matter of time ) it would most likely be some kind of a "rage" virus like in 28 Days Later.

Oh, and welcome Brunelleschi

Uhm, I hope not. I have so much to do in life.
Get a house in every Scandinavian country and
watch deadmau5 and Skrillex live with my dear
go to his gigs and all.
Get my own apartment with a cat. Live to be
an artist in drawing, probably be an architect,
probably be a surgeon or midwife, florist.
And so much more !!

Yeah, maybe radiation might be something like poisoning... Wikipedia says mutations can be caused by radiation, though. First, what should be done is to isolate and find the property of radiation that causes the mutation, then somehow increase the mutations caused by it, the final product might not even be a virus...

Where did you find that info about only 10 people surviving Uruboros? Also, I think we should just let nature decide how to run natural selection. Once humans do it, bad things will happen.

Exactly.

It causes mutations for sure but not the kind one would want to have on their BOWs. It'd propably be too much of a task to isolate the thing that causes mutations during radiation. Cancer (also caused by radiation) is the mutation of cells.

Btw. You plan on sticking around? You should make an introduction in the Introductions section

Yeah, I suppose you're right, Mass Distraction. The mutations caused by radiation could never be an advantage, especially if the plan is to create the perfect BOW, however, if, somehow, it was possible to find what causes the mutations, it could be changed to cause other mutations. Maybe by doing this one day we could have the perfect BOW. Now, as for the natural selection, it is even harder to choose who will survive by their DNA, not impossibe. It could just be something that, when exposed to inferior DNA, would cause a mutation in the DNA that would cause the organism to eventually die. When exposed to superior DNA, would cause mutations that would somehow improve the organism (Wesker's powers!! ). It'd be a comatibility thing. For example, put a new video card on a very old computer, it just might get damaged, on a new computer, you get extreme graphics.

Most people won't accept that idea well, though...

Oh yeah, and what do you mean by "You plan on sticking around? You should make an introduction in the Introductions section"?

not possibly T-virus, but an enhanced rabies virus, taking over the brain and stuff...

Since you're new here it'd be nice to know about your RE knowledge and such. Pretty much every new member who has stayed has made one

And I'd still like to know where you got your info about only 10 people surviving Wesker's plan.
