Corona Virus Predicted In 1981 In A Horror Novel
The deadly corona Virus which is spreading very fast across the globe is said to have been predicted in 1981 by American writer Dean Koontz in the book The Eyes Of Darkness.
The story revolves around a grieving mother investigating the mysterious circumstances of her son’s death, which is a peculiar reference to a killer virus known as “Wuhan-400”, the name of the city where the corona virus originated.
The excerpt features a character discussing biological warfare, calling the virus “the perfect weapon”.
“A Chinese scientist … defected to the United States, carrying a diskette record of China’s most important and dangerous new biological weapon in a decade,” the character says.
“They call the stuff ‘Wuhan-400’ because it was developed at their RDNA labs outside the city of Wuhan.”
“Wuhan-400 is the perfect weapon,” he says.
Spotted by author Nick Hinton, the extract has since gone viral, launching a number of bizarre conspiracy theories as to the origins of the coronavirus.
Koontz, a prolific US novelist best known for works including Demon Seed and Odd Thomas, has yet to respond to the discovery.
The disease, meanwhile, continues to spread around the world. More than 2,800 people have been killed by the virus worldwide, leading to concerns about a pandemic.
