Re: 382: "... “it only killed Asians..."

There were some FReepers posting to the Daily Thread in the early says that were claiming that COVID-19 killed mainly Asians.

Researcher On Cusp Of COVID-19 Breakthrough Killed In Bizarre Murder-Suicide

I wasn’t one of them. There were some who had theories about it, but they weren’t the ones using that to play down the threat.

[Black Agnes]

Yup.

Conflicting advice intended to cause chaos and dissent.

Ultimate goal of mandatory vaccine they will all profit from.

It’s why the CDC didn’t just drop the ball wrt testing, they kicked it into the weeds. We were SUPPOSED to have an epidemic of this, how else to mandate the coming vaccine. 300M+ doses X conservatively $50/dose. Yearly. That’s a lot of indemnified money for someone.

Arizona state health department tells modeling team to stop work

Tuesday afternoon, an ADHS spokesman sent ABC15 an email explaining the decision.

It said, “The reason that ADHS is pausing the internal modeling is, as we have said before, we are looking at several national models and have determined that FEMA is the most accurate to help us develop and implement public health interventions to respond to the COVID-19 outbreak.”

DES MOINES, Iowa —
The Bridgestone plant in Des Moines confirmed Tuesday that nine employees tested positive for COVID-19 after it reopened in April.

***The plant closed for three weeks for deep cleaning to prevent the spread of novel coronavirus.***

Did they clean the air handlers and ducts?

Ignore the source/commentary.

Focus on the picture.

Note the young, at little risk, wearing masks.

The nice N95 looking masks with the exhalation valve on a couple of them.

Why would they wear those to an antimask/antilockdown protest?

Note the old grayhaired fat guys with extensive central abdominal obesity. The VERY at risk guys. They’re NOT wearing masks.

Anyone heard from the antifa youngsters lately?

Because I think I found them. Rumor has it they wanted some of their younger members to deliberately infect themselves and attend these ‘trump supporter’ protests.

Spreading via one of those valved N95 masks would do two things, conceal your identity (especially the guy with hood and hat covering his face almost entirely) and let you spread at will...

[Black Agnes]

I have no idea then.

I do know the drive thru testing in MY state is a legit line of cars.

In some states you can’t just ‘show up’ and get tested:

[LilFarmer]

Wow, good find

[Black Agnes]

I always suspected the ‘it only kills asians’ were in denial.

Having said that, I would think in southern china near the bat caves, you’d find a reasonable distribution of CV resistant genomes. Just because living near that risk would have selectively eliminated the very susceptible.

If you want to find a treatment, looking for those SNPs would be a great place to start...

[RummyChick]

[LilFarmer]

I agree. I read in passing this morning that a US agency is trying to get access to early Wuhan cases. Maybe that is why.

[JayAr36]

Just like all assumptions, like yours, most do not pass muster.

It appears that I am trying to discuss someone that has taken on a religion. I don’t discuss religion. Bye

The Virology Journal - the official publication of Dr. Fauci’s National Institutes of Health - published what is now a blockbuster article on August 22, 2005, under the heading - get ready for this - “Chloroquine is a potent inhibitor of SARS coronavirus infection and spread.” Write the researchers, “We report...that chloroquine has strong antiviral effects on SARS-CoV infection of primate cells. These inhibitory effects are observed when the cells are treated with the drug either before or after exposure to the virus, suggesting both prophylactic and therapeutic advantage.”

What I’ve noticed in my area of Iowa: there seems to be a correlation with the 2016 primary. Towns where Cruz won overwhelmingly, nobody wears masks. In towns/cities where Trump or Rubio won, or are primarily Democrat, half to a majority will be wearing masks.

[miserare]

Thank you.

This is where I think a third party (China) is generating social media post to split the country.

If the powers that be dug deep enough, they'd probably find that China is behind the majority of the problems not only in our country, but around the world.

They are behind the nuclear and rocket programs in Iran and NK.

They are behind much of the illegal drugs flooding the US (the cartels and gang bangers are just the distributors).

They were probably behind the illegal immigrant caravans (the human rights activitsts are mainly useful idiots and the so-called Venezuelan funding is just a conduit). The sonic-ear-brain damage attack on the US embassy in Cuba was probably the doing of China. The "russian hacking" and all that russian nonsense was the doing of China. If there were russians involved, they were probably mercenaries working not for the KGB (or whatever it's called today) but for the CCP. Who looses if we have better relations with Cuba? China. Who looses if we have better relations with Russia? China. Who looses if we have better relations with NK? China.

They are probably behind both Antifa and the right wing extremists. The CCP uses the useful idiots on the lunatic fringe to destabilize the country. A divided America is to busy fighting itself to see what the butchers of beijing are up to.

They are probably behind the communist anti-bus fare increase rioters in Chile. What the chi-coms are doing are finding weaknesses in the societies of their enemies (which is pretty much the entire world outside of their middle kingdom), and exploiting them. You really don't need agents and spies like the 1950s anymore. Thanks to the internet, much of this exploitation is over the internet via blogs, social media posts, memes, the dark web, and crypto-currency funding. And there are always western professors, politicians, and business people willing to help out for the right combination of cash, drugs, and nooky.

I take that you WILL send the national guard to force vax people.

Muh Freedom but only yours, right?

I find it suspicious that ‘freedom for all’ flubros are ALWAYS force vaxxers.

Does anyone else find that suspicious/ironic?
