Italy can only be blamed for not restricting travel from China quickly enough. It did not, however, start there.

“China suggests Italy may be the birthplace of COVID-19 pandemic”

And isn’t it ironic how xi, and the rest of the ccp hierarchy never caught covid... Almost as if they had an immunization against it.

“China and its neighbors were not the target. If you look at the stats, it is all competitors and economic adversaries of China that are hardest hit.”

That is what I wrote. The asian countries have been spared. Only western countries have been hit hard.

“We got a vaccine in (less than) 8 months because with all the bureaucratic interference sidelined, we do what Americans do.”

Yeah right. Believe that if you want. A epidimiologist?? was on Hannity few month back and questioned how they came out with this in only 8 months. So all the richest men in the world who die of cancer like Steve Jobs could not get their resources up privately and come out with a cure bypassing the goverments of the world??

Something is up with covid the gov’t of the world don’t want to come out with and even our country is keeping it quiet.

Again1.5 million dead, trillions in lost wealth and gov’t are not even raising a finger against China and if they do tnhey get shot down by their own politicians???????

Sooner or later they’re going to be making movies about the pandemic. Hollywood blockbusters and action movies all the way down to independent films about pasty depressed people breaking up over zoom. How many of these films can you expect to cast the Chinese governent as the perpetrators of the covid and still get circulation on netflix or major studios? I would bet that some screenplays mentioning China are bought by major studios, but only for them to be spiked.

blinded, poked, plucked and jabbed:

20 Nov: Hong Kong: ‘Five Eyes could be blinded,’ China warns West
China has strongly rebuked the UK, the US, Australia, New Zealand and Canada after being accused of a concerted effort to silence critics in Hong Kong.
The countries, which form the Five Eyes alliance, criticised China’s imposition of new rules to disqualify elected legislators in Hong Kong.
They urged Beijing to reverse course.

A Chinese foreign ministry spokesman responded that if countries “dared harm China’s sovereignty, they should beware that their eyes could be blinded”.
“The Chinese never stir trouble , but they aren’t afraid of trouble either,” Zhao Lijian told journalists in Beijing on Thursday, saying it did not “matter if they had five or 10 eyes”...

20 Nov: Sydney Morning Herald: China threatens to ‘poke the eyes’ of Five Eyes nations over HK
By Eryk Bagshaw
While Australia has been singled out for economic punishment this year over its calls for a coronavirus inquiry, India, Japan and Europe are now running their China policies through multilateral forums.
The inflammatory remarks from the foreign ministry came hours after China’s President Xi Jinping called for global co-operation at the Asia-Pacific Economic Co-operation summit...

The comments follow months of heightened tensions with Canberra, which culminated in the Chinese embassy issuing a list of 14 grievances with the Morrison (Australian) government through the media while explicitly demanding Australia change course on its national security, foreign investment and human rights positions...
“China is angry. If you make China the enemy, China will be the enemy,” a Chinese embassy official said in a briefing in Canberra on Tuesday...

19 Nov: UK Sun: WHAT THE PLUCK China warns UK and US ‘eyes will be plucked out’ after demanding end to Hong Kong crackdown
by Chris Bradford
“No matter [if] they have five eyes or 10 eyes, as long as they dare to harm China’s sovereignty, security and development interests, [they should be] careful not to get their eyes jabbed and blinded.”...

ungrateful lot. while we self-destruct:

17 Nov: news.com.au: Chinese economy recovering thanks to billions in Australian (covid) stimulus packages
by Tarric Brooker
Back in January, factories and workshops across China fell eerily silent as Beijing sent most of its nation into what was then the most stringent and widespread lockdown in modern history...
Now, almost nine months later, China’s economy has seemingly undergone a miraculous recovery. On paper the Chinese economy is booming, even as other parts of the Northern Hemisphere face an economic battle that, based on current forecasts from the European Union, may take four or five years.

While there is a great deal of ongoing controversy over the accuracy of the Chinese government’s economic statistics, the enormous volume of container ships filled to the brim with Chinese made consumer goods, heading across the Pacific to the United States cannot be denied.
In fact, as a result of the record demand for trans-Pacific shipping, there is actually a global shortage of shipping containers, leading to container manufacturers facing order backlogs that run well into 2021...

Essentially, the miraculous recovery of the Chinese economy is being heavily supported by Western consumer spending, driven by government stimulus.
Much like during the GFC when Aussies buying flat screen TVs and other consumer goods with their stimulus payments helped support Chinese manufacturers, this time that is occurring on a far larger scale...

With much of Europe in varying degrees of lockdown as coronavirus case numbers continue to surge, there are rising risks there could be long term damage to European consumer demand.
Looking at the existing forecasts from the European Union, it’s clear that several of the world’s largest economies face very long roads to recovery...

Curing cancer (most forms) is not the same as developing a vaccine. We have a blueprint for vaccines, but only treatments for cancers, many of which are very distinct from each other. We actually can cure a few cancers, or prevent them, but they are all different and not every process is widely applicable.

Here’s an analogy, FWIW. We come out with numerous new models of surface cars every year. We don’t have many flying cars, though, and they don’t come out very often.

“Something is up with covid the gov’t of the world don’t want to come out with and even our country is keeping it quiet.”

My guess would be that it is a deliberate biological attack and we are in a post-conventional war with China, Iran, Cuba, Venezuela, and who knows who. I’ve been pretty sure this was a bioweapon since the beginning. I was wavering between accidental and deliberate release. I’m strongly leaning toward deliberate at this point, and I think the election mess is partially the Chinese government’s doing and putting China Joe in office is their way of blocking any response. China Joe is a proven traitor and Chinese asset. He should be tried for treason. Then China needs to answer for its actions.

Covid is less dangerous than the flu, masks don’t work and now it’s started in Italy and not China.

Good work, Covidiots and Flubrats.

There’s a lot of questions about this whole thing.

I have heard some call it a PCR test pandemic, because all this stuff is based on false positive PCR tests which have an incredibly high false positive rate.

These Lying ChiComs never quit. The only way that ChiCom Virus got to Italy is that they either carried it there or they Contaminated a citizen of Italy who brought it home following a trip to that sewer.

Italy has hundreds of thousands of Chinese workers in its Northland imported to work in the northern factories. They were going back and forth to China pretty freely. There have been suggestions that WuHan experienced a small wave of the virus as early as September. Perhaps the first release was insufficiently virulent and it was tweaked a bit for the November release.
