Yep, do you want chiense? Italian, SF, english or ??

In Africa it could mix with a few dozen other diseases, same as china.

Better send in your whole paycheck to the UN to solve it. Whoops no paycheck? Send in your $600 then.

So we’ve gone from “two weeks to flatten the curve” to “every new variant requires a 6 month shutdown”.

Covid: Matt Hancock ‘very worried’ by South African variant
ITV.com
4 January 2021
https://www.itv.com/news/2021-01-04/covid-matt-hancock-very-worried-by-south-african-variant
“...the reason for Mr Hancock’s “worry” about the South African Covid-19 variant is that they are not as confident the vaccines will be as effective against it as they are for the UK’s variant.”

Isn’t it interesting that media and pols deemed it “racis” to use terms “Wuhan” or “Chinese” in connection to the coronavirus, yet it is now OK to have not only UK Coronavirus but South African Coronavirus as well.

We must keep the population living in fear until the economy collapses so that we may take complete control of the government.

Then we may do as we wish.

No. Masks make people sick. That’s why medical employees wear them. The thing to do, is to go to the nearest indoor crowd and hang out there to socialize for a while. And don’t vote or campaign ever again. That’s the stupid thing to do, too, because voting makes us lose.

Oh, and don’t study logic, civics or politics, because those studies make people stupid. Studying conspiracy theories turns people into geniuses.

Dear Chinese Thugs

We know it's intentional... Sad for you is that where ever the Chinese go, the hellhole follows...YOU won't get 'the United States' you'll get filthy Chinese cities where the land was once beautiful.

YOU CHINESE carry the hellhole with you. Move a crazy woman with 300 starving dogs and cats into a mansion and in a few years it's a stinking sh*t house with 800 starving dogs and cats.
