Wasn’t just containment problems. They tried to hide the outbreak.
Much as the Soviets did with their nuclear plant problem and Iran when they shit down a passenger plane
China can never admit to such a gross error.
Not just for ‘Loss of Face’ as they put it, but they would be sued in every court on Earth for damages.................
Deep State and China colluding to collapse the US economy prior to the presidential election in an attempt to be rid of a common enemy?
So, why exactly would an international consortium create a virulent (though only moderately deadly) strain of a virus that causes the common cold? What’s the payoff?
Gee, ya think we will be at war with China soon. The bastards have screwed up the world economy. Tempers WILL flare in the near future.
I think this is the most likely scenario - there is no reason the chiComms would release this intentionally. Makes no sense.
Many researchers cannot be made to understand why the absolute need to euthanize all lab animals following completion of a study.
And I have to say that it appears the Chinese, in general, are less concerned about others as they are about themselves. Half of Wuton population (about 5 MILLION) fled to avoid being quarantined in the city.
This will be found to be nothing but a virulent flu contracted from eating pangolins, honey badgers and such which eat food on which bat guano has fallen.
Xi permitted the spread to end the Hong Kong protests.
Xi prefers chaos to containment quelle surprise
this is the question that may never be asked by a government - because it could ultimately lead to world war 3 down the road. this could potentially be that big a deal.
disturbingly, apparently china is ratcheting up propaganda about US origin of the virus.
depending on where this goes, it may be the biggest destabilization globally since WW2, at a minimum.
What gets me about China and disease is almost all of them come from China. Ebola is the only one I can think of that didn’t come from China. Bird flu, Swine flu, Sar’s, COVID-19, and many more all originated in China. Isn’t Africa a dirtier place than China? If China can’t clean up it’s act, why doesn’t the WHO or the UN or some other organization penalize them until they clean up their country?
