Join me as I describe the chilling science behind ALZ-113, the artificially-created retrovirus also known as the Simian Flu. I will reveal how this wonder of genetic engineering, originally designed to cure Alzheimer's, evolved into a highly contagious pathogen that would ultimately reshape our world entirely. How is it that this virus enhances ape intelligence, even granting them speech, while a mutated strain leaves the remnants of humanity in cognitive decline? We'll explore this question and more, as well as just how ALZ-113 served to replace humanity as the dominant species on Earth.
