China's COVID problem is about to get worse

t has been just over a month since China dropped its zero COVID approach to the pandemic. Since then the disease has spread rapidly in China’s cities and there is lots of evidence that many people have died (hospitals, funeral parlors and crematoriums in Beijing have been overwhelmed) but very few of those deaths get reported in the official COVID death toll.

Today the NY Times reports there’s reason to think the situation is going to get worse as the disease is now moving into rural areas where there are no real hospitals or treatment available for anyone who gets sick.

"The infections in Dadi Village, a corn farming community tucked between verdant hills in China’s remote southwest, started in early December when a handful of young people returned from jobs in big cities.

The nearest hospital was an hour away, and few could afford the $7 bus fare there. The village clinic is not equipped with oxygen tanks or even an oximeter to detect if someone’s blood is dangerously deprived of oxygen. It quickly ran out of its stockpile of five boxes of fever medicine, so officials told sick residents to stay home and drink lots of water…

China is bracing for an onslaught of infections in its fragile countryside as millions of migrant workers crowd onto trains and buses to leave factory towns, construction sites and cities, to return to their rural homes for the Lunar New Year holiday. The travel period, which begins Saturday and lasts 40 days, is expected to overwhelm the rural health care system only weeks after hospitals in wealthy cities like Beijing and Shanghai were buckled by the outbreak.

“What we are most worried about is that after three years, everyone … can finally go home for the new year to visit relatives,”

Lunar New Year travel period 40 days.

Similar to the Noah story of rain for 40 days and nights. World flooded, humanity almost wiped out.

Maybe the CCP is looking to flood the world with DISEASE instead of water. Impact to humanity?????

Shut down ALL TRAVEL FROM CHINA for the next 90 days.

Since we didn't stop travel from China two years ago,
that is how w,e as a nation, got so heavily infected.
Our delayed response became a panic-drama engineered by the Pharma and MSM for an untested and untried Covid "vaccine" in the first place.

Trump stopped travel from China at the end of 2000. But Canada did not stop travel from China and so they just drove into the US from Canada.

Also no one stopped travel from Muslim countries and an infected traveler from the Middle East started a deadly strain in New York.

And of course now the southern invasion army is bringing in infections from all over the world.

China is hoping the virus mutates the heck out of itself among their expendable population, and an actual deadly variant to everyone, not just the very old and those with multiple pre-existing conditions, hits the U.S. hard.

They want our authoritarian politicians to put us all back in a never ending "lockdown," thus crippling this country even more.

This is their intended outcome.

So, in reality, the current China program policy is their own massive population viri exposure to all Covid variants,
with the intent to use the medical evolutionary virus bio-weapon against the economic and genetic interests of the West ?
Could this lead to "herd immunity" ?
This sounds quite similar to a psychiatric personality disorder of "Passive/Aggressive personality", although done on a national basis, .. yes ?
If true, this sounds like a national post-Apocalyptic personality disorder (?);
is this what you are suggesting ?
