this guy brings up an interesting point

CCP would have Yanling make an appearance to quash the rumors...yet Yanling has disappeared

They forced the whistleblower Dr to show proof of life with his ID while he layed in bed dying

I would say Yanling is dead.

Was she patient Zero. Who knows

Here's a video that explains martial law pretty well, as opposed to other uses of the military. I know it's MSNBC and the narrator is an annoying official of the ACLU, but it nevertheless could be helpful.

Note the justifiable reasons for martial law: insurrection and invasion. I think we should all be mindful that some of the people demonstrating are false flag types who know that insurrection spreading around the country, or getting out of hand in one place even, could cause martial law to be declared.

Video.

Yet...

I wonder about the HIV component. Some virus have an ability to hide in your body (herpes virus is example, and there are others) until something triggers a full blown outbreak in the body. I've read many scientist believe the HIV component of the coronavirus indicates it's man made.

Regardless, that is an amazing statistic! One wonders what it could mean at several levels.

Homeless do get more sunlight than anyone. They are also exposed to greater temp extremes. Also, coastal areas have greater humidity. About the only physical difference I can see. All those would tend to lower their viral density exposure. Their immune systems are probably more exposed to disease also. Now any have lung tissue damage ? Did they check for weakened immune system markers ?

The homeless live like humans lived for centuries- hunting and gathering.
They are very much the ‘honest’ human today.
They live the life our bodies were made for.

The rest of us are spoiled, decadent even. (That’s a good thing- don’t get me wrong!)

No, the white house didn’t dissolve its pandemic response office

“.... Defense Secretary Robert Gates, congressional oversight committees and members of the Obama administration itself all agreed the NSC was too large and too operationally focused (a departure from its traditional role coordinating executive branch activity). As The Post reported in 2015, from the Clinton administration to the Obama administration’s second term, the NSC’s staff “had quadrupled in size, to nearly 400 people.” That is why Trump began streamlining the NSC staff in 2017.”

“...One such move at the NSC was to create the counterproliferation and biodefense directorate, which was the result of consolidating three directorates into one, given the obvious overlap ... It is this reorganization that critics have misconstrued or intentionally misrepresented. If anything, the combined directorate was stronger because related expertise could be commingled.”

https://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2020/03/17/no_the_white_house_didnt_dissolve_its_pandemic_response_office_142683.html

no, Trump didn’t cut the CDC budget:

this attack is inaccurate. Trump has proposed budget cuts for the CDC in each of his budgets since taking office, but Congress never approved those proposals. Trump’s most recent budget plan calls for a 16 percent cut to the CDC, but that budget has yet to be approved by Congress. It’s fair to say Trump has tried to defund the CDC, but it’s inaccurate to say that he has succeeded—or that those fictitious cuts have affected the agency’s ability to respond to COVID-19.

When Trump was asked about those budget cuts, and about his firing of some top CDC officials, at Wednesday’s press briefing on the virus, he offered a pretty good defense.
“I’m a businessperson. I don’t like having thousands of people around when you don’t need them,” said Trump. “When we need them, we can get them back very quickly.”
Indeed, that’s a good way for the government to operate.

No, Trump didn’t cut pandemic research (in spite of wapo’s fake news 2018 headline). A five-year, one-time grant from Congress was slated to expire in 2019, with grant money still unspent:

Most of the funding comes from a one-time, five-year emergency package that Congress approved to respond to the 2014 Ebola epidemic in West Africa. About $600 million was awarded to the CDC to help countries prevent infectious-disease threats from becoming epidemics. That money is slated to run out by September 2019...The CDC has about $150 million remaining from the one-time Ebola emergency package for these global health security programs, the senior government official said. That money will be used this year and in fiscal 2019...

One of the festivals our family usually attends was rescheduled for the end of September.

Let’s all hope we’re past this crazy mess by then. Either with treatment or it just goes away...
