The proper word is not good or evil. The proper word is “unprepared”.

[nickcarraway]

Not necessarily. But I would not say Chinese is evil. The current Chinese government is evil.

[Leep]

Government imposed abortion kind of sounds evil?

I’ve lost count of the countries that were gonna do us in.

Even nonsense here about Iran sinking a whole lot of our ships in a war.

China is a 3rd world Joke that doesn’t have enough common sense and enough antibiotics to stop the spread of a virus.

I know a lot of people died in 1918.

Developing pneumonia is what is killing the Chinese.

There was no penicillin in 1918 and there’s very likely an incredible shortage in 2020 china.

And they’d rather watch their people die than ask for outside help and drugs.

Some super power.

[Nifster]

It is a third world communist country......evil

Population control?

Bring Out Your Dead

Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.

The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.

So far the false positive rate is 100%.

At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.

*sigh* Such is life, and death...

If a quarantine saves just one child's life, it's worth it.

Can’t they be both?

“…people eat soup made from contaminated bats. Bats carry the virus but are not themselves infected by it.

The virus is communicated via respirated droplets. So how do you catch it from eating soup? Are people sucking it in to cool it off and aspirating droplets from the liquid? Blowing on it and spreading droplets in the room for others to breathe? Or some other mechanism linking the alimentary canal to the respiratory system?

Serious question for the virologists and microbiologists here.

this is mostly speculative drivel

Mostly, China is intensely populated

[ncalburt]

Pure Evil .
Somehow created this virus.
Prevented WHO from getting Virus
samples.
Blocked WHO officials from entering the Zone to investigate
the outbreak.
Commies shut off Beijing from after Virus was out of control
Kept both Chinese WAll Street markets shut down knowing the impact it in NY London Tokyo.
Did not shut down Air travel to stop the spread throughout the world but Beijing was closed off .
Sent millions of Chinese to infect the world .
Basically Sent sick Chinese overseas to get treatment .
Shifting its health care mess on the west .

[sockmonkey]

I really find these Iran, Russia, China, Venezuela, Bolivia, Syria threads such BS propaganda.

I think it was the US who dropped plague on North Korea during the Korean war, infected black Americans with Syphilis, and gave radiation laced Cheerios to children. I think many governments are researching ways to drop a biological or chemical apocalypse on their “enemies”.

I doubt any country could effectively deal with a situation of the numbers that China is experiencing. Look at Katrina, and the ineffective response that initially followed.

[MrEdd]

Harvesting human organs from prisoners tells us China is bad.

Asking questions about other issues as if what China is were not already established tells us that the writer is either also evil or has an astonishing level of stupidity.

[mikey_hates_everything]

Karma for fentanyl. Suck it, China.

[Rightwing Conspiratr1]

Don’t trust China.
China is asshoe.

;-P

[sit-rep]

neither... Just tells us some idiot was careless with a stored virus.

[Gay State Conservative]

China is surely governed by breathtakingly evil men. China is also a Third World cesspool. Its Third World status would easily explain the spread of this virus (just think Ebola).

Does the Coronavirus Outbreak Tell Us That China Is Bad or Evil?

---

No we knew that already. Coronavirus just reinforces that.

[LeoWindhorse]

For years and years, China and the Chinese have been raping the world of some of its most rare and endangered species. All to satisfy their predilection to eat exotic animals and substances derived thereof, in order to enhance their libido or virility ( as if there aren’t enough of them already) Now, it is coming back to bite them. These extinction purveyors are getting some of their own medicine. Personally, it will not bother me much if 80% of the Chinese disappear. Karma
