 GB News host Beverley Turner has been condemned by a Jewish group after tweeting Covid-19 had been bioengineered to 'cause less harm to certain ethnicities.' The 49-year-old wrote a now-deleted and 'dangerous' post on Twitter, screenshotted by The Jewish Chronicle, that the coronavirus had been manufactured to 'destroy the west'. She also bizarrely linked Dr Anthony Fauci, who was the chief medical adviser to the US presidency during the pandemic and, as a result, the subject for many conspiracy theorists, to the 'bioengineering'. Turner said: 'Sars cov 2 virus causes less harm to certain ethnicities – east Asians, and Ashkenazi Jews (Fauci anyone?) than to European, S Asian & African … Just let that sink in.' Referencing conspiracy theories Covid was developed in a laboratory in Wuhan, she continued: 'This is looking increasingly like a bio weapon to destroy the west.' Pointing out the dangers of Turner's post, Dave Rich, the head of policy at the Community Security Trust, told The Guardian: 'It's both depressing and alarming how easily an antisemitic myth can spread from the cranky corners of the internet into mainstream politics and media on both sides of the Atlantic. Turner has since deleted the 'dangerous' tweet (Picture: WireImage) 'Not only is this a dangerous conspiracy theory, it is grossly insulting to the many Jewish families that lost loved ones to Covid-19 during the pandemic Turner finished her post with: 'Why is this not on the front pages of every paper?' She also tagged disgraced health secretary Matt Hancock, who resigned after breaking his own lockdown rules when he was caught on camera snogging his aide, and former PM Boris Johnson.
