Ready for the next China pandemic? They're sending it our way right now

Hey, remember the pandemic of 2020? China knew of the SAR-Cov-2 viral epidemic that was brewing in Wuhan, the capital of Hubei province. What did they do? They sealed off Hubei province from the rest of China but opened Hubei to the outside world, knowing the virus was going to be carried into some of the most populated areas possible. The virus was sent to Milan, New York and the West Coast of the US. It then exploded across the US.

They're doing it again.

China finally ended its idiotic zero-COVID policy, which was an absolute disaster.  People were sealed into their own homes, sometimes even welded in. As China lies about pretty much everything it's almost impossible to know how many died as a consequence. It estimates that 250 million are now infected with COVID since the end of its zero-COVID restrictions. The country is now going through what everyone else endured two years ago, except that now they are again willing to share.

China, which was ground zero for COVID, is lifting quarantine rules for incoming visitors and is now actively exporting the virus to familiar target territory.

 Italian health authorities will begin testing all arrivals from China for Covid after almost half of the passengers on two flights to Milan were found to have the virus.

They are also sequencing the Milan tests to see if there are new variants, the Health Ministry said in a statement. If a new strain is found, officials may impose stricter curbs on travel from the country. China has seen outbreaks of the virus since the government there abandoned its strict zero-Covid policies. Uncertainty over the scale of the spread has prompted countries, including the US, to consider new restrictions on entry.

And it appears desirous of replicating 2020
A health expert has sharply criticized the Chinese regime’s lifting of international travel restrictions in the midst of a massive COVID wave sweeping through the country, saying the move is “extremely irresponsible” and could cause a global resurgence of the pandemic.

...

Sean Lin, a virologist and former lab director at the viral disease branch of the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research, said that the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) opening up of the country is actually a strategy to get everyone infected not only within China, but around the world.

“When they can’t control the outbreak, they push it to the whole world. Just like when COVID first broke out in Wuhan, people who had been infected in Wuhan were allowed to travel around the world. The strategy is the same now as before,” he said.

And as before, they're completely opaque
“The CCP is not sharing data, and the international community doesn’t know how many different virus variants are spreading in China, and whether there are other compound infections,” he said.

“Under such circumstances, it is extremely irresponsible for the CCP to let the people out of the country which is a huge epidemic area. Put another way, it has a very treacherous purpose and is very malicious.”

The UK proves it has learned nothing

The two flights of sick passengers arrived at Malpensa Airport from China on Monday, Bloomberg reported.

On the first flight, 35 out of 92 passengers tested positive for the virus, while on the second, 62 passengers out of 120 were infected, according to Lombardy region’s health chief Guido Bertolaso.

Fauci found a sure fire way to stop spread of Covid that is for Democrats only. Just place a large plastic bag over your head and duct tape the neck tight!

Ps. Make sure it is a clear plastic bag so you can see that it is working.

Just because you can drive into a ghetto doesn't make it a nice place.

Yawn. I ignored it. Just like the annual flu.

It’s an Act of War.

There is no evidence of any new mutations. But they will come. They will be weaker. Except in China.

No. More like an outreach program to the underprivileged and mentally disabled.

Just you so far.

Should I be keeping a log or something?

Maybe you should. Clicking on a thread that’s clearly posted in the Bloggers section and then complaining that it came from a blog is, to me anyway, indicative of some sort of mental issue.

It’s like going into a strip bar and complaining about seeing women’s breasts.

Perhaps I expressed myself poorly.

Perhaps you confuse "pointing out" with "complaining".

If this "author" doesn't want to be saddled with the "blogger"
label then maybe she should go get hired by someone, show
some credentials, fill out an application, get background-checked.

You know, the usual things people do to get hired.

Any bum that is able to shuffle into a public library
can "write" a blog, and most of them do.
