Nothing to see here, go away.

“Police and security guards were stationed outside a Beijing crematorium reportedly designated to handle Covid fatalities, as questions over China’s virus death toll mount.

Guards pushed journalists to the back of the Beijing Dongjiao Funeral Parlor’s parking lot on Monday, as a line of about a dozen black minivans entered the site on Beijing’s eastern outskirts, used to prepare and process bodies for cremation. The vans appeared to be dropping off bodies and were surrounded at one point by what seemed to be mourners or relatives.

The crematorium has drawn scrutiny after workers told foreign media including the Financial Times and the Wall Street Journal that they were overwhelmed with bodies since China scrapped most Covid restrictions and Beijing experienced a surge in cases. That contrasts with the official virus death count, which saw just two Covid fatalities recorded for Beijing this weekend, the first in almost a month.”

They voted for Orban...

“Orban’s Food Price Caps Backfire for Hungarian Holiday Shoppers

Shops limit food staple purchases after government caps prices

Hungarians enduring the worst inflation in the European Union”

“A plan to shield Hungarians from the European Union’s highest inflation before the holidays has backfired, with retailers rationing staple foods in a throwback to the nation’s communist past.

Following a move by Prime Minister Viktor Orban’s government to cap prices on pantry basics, retailer Aldi is limiting shoppers to buying only 1 kilogram (2.2 pounds) of potatoes and a single liter of milk per visit due to a surge in demand.

Other grocery chains such as Spar, Lidl and Tesco have introduced similar restrictions. That’s leading some to wonder how they’ll bake the traditional ‘bejgli,’ a Christmas pastry fixture on Hungarian tables usually filled with poppy-seeds or walnuts.

“I came here because my neighbor said there’s milk now,” said Magdolna, 67, who was shopping at an Aldi in Budapest. “Usually there isn’t any and I haven’t seen eggs in a while. I don’t know how I’ll bake for Christmas.” “

This is a repeat of what happened when it hit the Chinese people - every one was aghast at the numbers the crematoriums etc. Except ... it was all fake - manufactured by the CCP. Believe none of this latest CCP hype.
