It is a weapon. It was designed and unleashed in 2019 because at that time, the classical music world in Europe and USA and even South America had rediscovered Puccini’s last, unfinished opera Turandot. (If you have ever heard of an aria for tenor called ”Nessun dorma”, that’s from Turandot.) This opera is very offensive to Xi and the Chinese ruling party, because it depicts the Chinese people as brutal savages ruled by a sadistic tyrant. Opera houses all over the free world were planning, in 2019, to stage it in 2020. It's very challenging, for everyone - the soloists, the chorus, the orchestra, the costumers, the set-designers, everyone. La Scala, the Metropolitan, Lyric Opera of Chicago, Covent Garden, DeutscheOper Berlin, and even the little “petit-grand” opera companies like Regina Opera in Brooklyn and West Bay Opera in Palo Alto were going to take a crack at Turandot. The Chinese government released the virus in order to stop it.
A telling detail: they seem to have succeeded. Now that the pandemic is (hopefully!) fading, the opera companies are doing plenty of Puccini, but not Turandot! They’re doing La Bohème, and Il Trittico, and a few of the earlier ones, but not Turandot.
That's why they designed it to have such mild pathology, Dr Campbell. They weren't trying to kill a lot of people, just to make enough people sick enough to shut down the opera houses for a while so that the global classical music community could move on.

@christopherrobinson7541 Yes, but remember, the benefit of Paxlovid is NOT that it stops the virus from entering the cell. I don't think it does stop that. What it stops is this: the virus mostly doesn't have separate genes for its proteins; it has one long stretch of genetic information (RNA) which codes for all the proteins. The virus enters the cell, releases the viral RNA, and the cell produces one big proto-protein - one long chain of amino acids, whose sequence includes all the viral proteins, strung together in one long chain, and then that chain gets cleaved, or chopped up by a protease enzyme, into the specific proteins the virus needs. The nirmatrelvir in the Paxlovid stops the "chopping up" process. This happens after, and independently from, the virus entering the cell.

@colleenlazoruk2897 Of course, there are blood vessels in muscle! Everybody knows that.
But you see, I'm not asking for reasons why it might make sense for aspiration to be useful or beneficial.
I once knew a surgeon/scientist, whose job included evaluating proposals for innovation. He used to say: you can make all the arguments you like, but in the end, if you can't show, with statistically-large, double-blind, properly-controlled studies that your medication, regimen, device, procedure, protocol, or strategy actually does save lives (or bring measurable benefit to patients), then you're just jerking yourself off with your arguments about why it ought to work or might save lives or bring benefit to patients. The proof of the pudding is in the eating of it (as the fellow said).
So, once again: do you know of any ACTUAL STUDIES (double-blind, statistically large comparisons) which show that aspiration ACTUALLY DOES make patients safer than injection without aspiration?

RE: "I find myself almost amused at your attempt to use the English language. "
What are you talking about? English is my native language. I grew up in New York City. (I can also get by in Russian, German, Polish, Italian, and French, and I have sung in Georgian, Latvian, Ukrainian, Church Slavonic, and Lezghin, although I can't really speak or write in those languages.)
