The WHO is calling for $675 million to support countries, especially those which are most vulnerable, he said, adding it has identified 13 countries in Africa that are seen as a priority because of their links to China.

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.

That's nice.

Are there ANY cases reported in Africa?

Globalists have for years discussed the “need” to reduce the world’s population to something more “sustainable.”

Facebook now shows “ad” for cdc.gov asking everyone to help prevent the spread. Once their it says expect more cases in US in the coming days. Hmmm. They have a map too, no cases showing in Mexico or Central and South America, only extreme Northern Africa showing cases. Big block of Eastern Europe show none. Have to wonder if they all have the kits to get cases properly recorded by the cdc.

In the USA, only three states have the kits. The rest send samples to Atlanta and wait a few days.

Who would ever know if there were cases in Africa or not? With every thing else killing them off like Ebola and the muzzies killing off the medical personal who is going to check?

Translation: We need 675, million more to stuff in our personal banks accounts.

And what could be more tailor-made for a tyrannical globalist regime than to remove the elderly with their memories of freedom and plenty yet leave the impressionable young behind.

Sounds like a movie script...or the news.

Oooh, oooh! Waving hand and jumping in my seat! I know! They want the $675M, plus more, from the US. Did I get it right, huh, huh!

The link is simple. It’s from all those trains, planes and ships circling the world dropping asymptomatic folk here and there for weeks before planes from China were sort of shut down. Expect more.

Saw this on ZeroHedge:

CDC: What’s going on over there? Come in!
Tedros: Uh, everything is under control. Situation normal.
CDC: What happened?
Tedros: [flustered] Uh, had a slight virus malfunction. But, uh, everything’s perfectly all right now. We’re fine. We’re all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?
CDC: We’re sending a squad over.
Tedros: Uh, uh, negative, negative. We had a quarantine breach here now. Give us a few days to lock it down. Large breach... very dangerous.
CDC: Who is this?? What’s your license number?
Tedros: Uh... [shoots the intercom] Boring conversation anyway. Pooh, we’re gonna have company!

Maybe we’re just numb to the numbers, but $675 million is a LOT of money!

With any kind of cost control, even $10 million should be enough to get some kind of operation up and running. Secure a building, hire some staff and haul in some equipment.

A sum as huge as $675 million will surely end up, in large part, feathering the pocket of some “official” who surely doesn’t deserve it.

One in Egypt and one in eSwatini (Swaziland, Southern Africa). This is from 15 Feb and no subsequent info.

There was also a red dot on the Cabo Verde islands that didn’t have a corresponding data point in the list, it was there for several days, then quietly went away...

eSwatini never even rated a dot.
