Just seen on ZeroHedge comments (I know, I know):

The Standing Committee of the Hubei Provincial Committee held last night decided to:

remove Zhang Jin, secretary of the Party Committee of the Health Committee;

remove Liu Yingzi, director of the provincial Health Committee.

The two positions mentioned above will be performed concurrently by Comrade Wang Hesheng, the newly-appointed Standing Committee member of the Provincial Party Committee.

In other words, secretary Zhang Zin and director Liu Yingzi are sick or have died.

This article says it is because Chinese citizens were given the SARS vaccine.

As far as I've seen, an effective SARS vaccine has not yet been developed, nor has any SARS vaccine been administered to large populations. There is a 99% chance the source you are quoting is a kook. This whole thing is serious enough without all the crazy conspiracy theories.

He won’t get the cure from the Frabrini. And McCoy is no longer here with the rotating, hand held cartridge diagnostic scanner (N. Time).

SADS not good.

But not the SARS.

That would be worse.

SADS= “Sudden Arrhythmic Death Syndrome”

That sounds worse.

Maybe I’ll just self quarantine for a while.

Well... Outside of electronics, half the “stuff” I own is old, quite a bit is from yard sales, etc., and not from China. I’m not really a prepper, but in looking at non-food “necessities” I / my family might need to get to get through supply shortages, I came up with:

Specific meds as needs might arise (am good on all the “usual” stuff for colds and what not.)

Unexpected auto repair parts. (Bought extra oil filters today.) We have a spare vehicle that needs some work, but I already have the parts.

Unexpected parts needs for home repair, appliance repair, etc.) (Have a lot, but not “everything.”) Am almost wondering if a spare well pump makes sense...

Probably could stand to get a little more ammo in a couple calibers. Picked up some extra .22 LR today in case it gets so bad I need to plink small game.

No spare cell phone.

Lots of plastics stuff has returned to USA production.

I’m probably forgetting something...

A poster, "Great Deceivah2", posted 1 hour ago on ZeroHedge (I know, I know):

I see a lot of chinese apologists (probably CCP trolls and the usual socialist morons) trying to save face for china and blame the US somehow for what is happening in china. "No way China would do this to themselves", they whine.. as if the idiot chinese didn't have a long history of self-genocide by the millions, all in the name of communist dogma, long before the "internet", when china was completely closed to the west:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Chinese_Famine

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_Pests_Campaign

https://www.newyorker.com/news/daily-comment/the-cost-of-the-cultural-revolution-fifty-years-later

So, How hard is for a very virulent virus / bacteria to escape a facility?

Not hard at all.. all it takes is a pricked finger, a patch of skin that didn't get cleansed properly, a broken vial.

The chinese already have a bad history of biological experiment failures and viruses escaping their facilities.

Check out this quote in this 2017 article about the Wuhan pathogen lab:

https://www.nature.com/news/polopoly_fs/1.21487!/menu/main/topColumns/topLeftColumn/pdf/nature.2017.21487.pdf

But worries surround the Chinese lab, too. The SARS virus has escaped from high-level containment facilities in Beijing multiple

times, notes Richard Ebright, a molecular biologist at Rutgers University in Piscataway, New Jersey.

This is how careful chinese "scientists" are... just two months ago, stealing cancer cell vials stashed in a sock is not beneath them.

https://www.nytimes.com/2019/12/31/us/chinese-scientist-cancer-research-investigation.html

And to the morons who claim that "nothing happens by accident".. Industrial accidents happen all the time.. specially in china..

ever heard of these?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2019_Xiangshui_chemical_plant_explosion

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2015_Tianjin_explosions

This theory about the virus accidentally escaping in china, is shared by James Lyons-Weiler PhD. Senior Research Scientist at the University of Pittsburgh.

https://jameslyonsweiler.com/2020/01/30/on-the-origins-of-the-2019-ncov-virus-wuhan-china/

Option 4. A recombined virus made in a laboratory for the purpose of creating a vaccine.

The disease progression in of 2019-nCoV is consistent with those seen in animals and humans vaccinated against SARS and then

challenged with re-infection. Thus, the hypothesis that 2019-nCoV is an experimental vaccine type must be seriously considered.

Evidence for: Sequence homology between INS1378 to pShuttle Coronavirus vaccine; presence of a SARS-like Spike protein in bat

coronavirus, otherwise most similar to bat coronaviruses; low bootstrap value.

Status: Most likely.

This explains why the virus is so prevalent and deadly in China, but not so in the rest of the world, because the SARS human vaccines cause serious problems on people who are vaccinated when infected with a new strain.

The fact that the chinese communist party scientist puppets are desperately trying to find some lame excuse (pangolins!) to explain the birth of this crisis, should tell you, that it was an accident.

Empires usually collapse on their own, due to their own corruption, ineptitude and hubris. The collapse of the crooked communist chinese empire (the biggest polluter in the world) is one of the best things that could happen to humanity.

A quick glance to china's history of self-genocide and atrocities, should tell anyone the type people they are. Centuries of famines, and self-genocide have resulted in the chinese' complete lack of empathy and compassion for humanity and themselves.

What do you expect from a "nation" that has the picture of a mass murderer (Chairman mao, who killed close to 100 million of his own people under his regime) in its currency???

The American empire has nothing on the evil chinese.

= = = = = = = = = = = = = =

My comments:

the part about SARS human vaccines causing serious problems on people who are vaccinated when infected with a new strain, kinda rings true, if one considers Antibody-Dependent -Enhancement, which I found explained on another post from ZeroHedge (I know, I know) and which I posted here.

The World is Hollow. The princess leader takes terminal McCoy as husband. Spock scans the Frabrini records and finds McCoy the cure.

“Thank you Mr. Spock for bringing back the knowledge of the Frabrini” McCoy.

extra charging cables for your phone.

headphones/ear buds

they’ve got a website, looks up and running
from their ‘about’ page, just random: Civica Rx and Blue Cross Blue Shield Companies Join Forces; imminent shipments of Heparin Sodium Injection, USP, and seven other essential injectable medicines

No problem on most electronics, except no spare cell phone. Otherwise, I could practically start a store...

Random thoughts:

Wifey has a sewing kit but it looks a bit skimpy to me. Might see if my Mom wants to give away hers - she’ll never use it again. (Very bad arthritis, plus a degree of Parkinsons.) Mom’s prescription meds are a concern, tho’.

Sump pump (basement) is a bit long in the tooth. It got about 4 years worth of work last year, and so far this year has been very wet too, very wet week coming up...

We have quite a bit of camping gear to fall back on in a pinch. Fishing gear, I have two lifetimes’ supply, at least. Small garden - nowhere near big enough to feed the 3 of us - more hobby than practical, but it helps. Bought seeds today - need to get some stuff started early just in case...

Garden tools, maybe fertilizer or such.

IIRC, ziploc bags are made her but from imported materials.

problem number one in this video - the nurses blistered around temples from wearing goggles/sweating - but they are still working ICU. (abt 2:20) Second problem - what is with those blotches on the doctor’s skin? (abt 5:00) Is that from disinfectant or the suit material?
