I've read somewhere HIV can be modified to become undetectable for Bio Terrorism. The idea is to infect people with the modified version of HIV through injection when they are unaware. Now these people won't know they are infected because they would be negative in the HIV antibody test. They transmit the virus to others without their knowledge ( they think they are negative ).

Consequenlty the person would die later cos of opportunistic infections. The virus would be spread drastically.

Now this really scared me. Could this be possible?

Well, is it possible that somebody creates an undetectable form of HIV and infects it to people , and you know, it's not detected until the person develops AIDS. and since people don't know they are infected, they easily pass it on to others.

Is this kind of scenario possible?

Thank you mr.skeptic

But is it possible to create viruses or mutate/alter/modify them in the lab intentionally?

( not naturally , artificially in the lab)

Is it possible to create a virus such as Hepatits , influenza or HIV in the laboratory?

Or is it possible to manipulate or alter the viruses genetically to produce a new type ( cousin virus )?

Can this be done in the lab manually?

I'm more interested in HIV .
