Millions Under Lockdown as China Attempts to Control Delta Outbreak

Millions of people are currently confined to their homes in China as the regime races to contain its largest COVID-19 outbreak in months, driven by the spread of the Delta variant. The surge has caused concerns about the efficacy of Chinese vaccines against the highly infectious strain.

Chinese health authorities have blamed the Delta variant for a rise in infections spanning 14 provinces and including Beijing. The recent outbreak of COVID-19, the disease caused by the CCP virus, was first reported on July 20 in the eastern city of Nanjing, where nine airport workers were identified by routine tests.

On Aug. 2, the national health commission confirmed 43 fresh cases across the nation, pushing the total of infected numbers over 300 within 10 days. But this figure isn’t likely to reflect the true total, given the Chinese regime is known to grossly underreport its virus numbers.

“Don’t trust [the authorities’] announcement. Actually, we don’t believe it,” a Beijing citizen surnamed Wang told The Epoch Times on July 30.

The residential area where Wang lives has been under lockdown since July 28.

On Aug. 2, the Beijing authorities gave stay-at-home orders to hundreds of thousands of people in the Haidian District after a resident was found infected with the CCP virus that morning.

A resident surnamed Zhou confirmed to The Epoch Times on Aug. 2 that she was informed the residential area was locked down in the morning. She said residents are receiving nucleic acid tests, and suggested that the lockdown wouldn’t be lifted before several rounds of mass tests were completed.

Flights, trains, and buses have been canceled from areas in the capital where the CCP virus has been found, locking out tourists during the peak summer holiday travel season, despite the vast majority of the citizens having been inoculated with Chinese vaccines.

I have a niece who is a nurse in Wuhan. (The daughter of my Chinese wife’s sister. She is a HK girl married to a mainland man) She saw the people dying when this thing first started. It was building for a weeks before it was reported. The locals, through fear, did not even tell the central government what was happening. The initial strain of COVID was extremely deadly. That was, I think the strain that went to Italy. Once the central government was alerted they began to take remedial measures. But, it took them several weeks to grasp the scope of the problem. The PRC even built a huge temporary hospital to treat the sick. At least at first, the PRC was severely under reporting. They still are to this day. They want the public to believe they have the situation under control.

People here need to stop thinking of the PRC government as comic book villains. Evil people do not wake up every day and ask themselves, “How evil can I be today?” The evil man believes himself to be virtuous and good.

Totalitarians don’t just line people up and kill them for fun. NOt even in North Korea. If totalitarian governments kill people it is to preserve the state and the leadership. During the Great leap forward, the PRC murdered tens of millions. But here is the thing, they didn’t kill all those people just to kill them. It was in the states interest to do so, in order to industrialize China. The end - industrialization - in their eyes, justified the means. This is the central moral failing of all communist states. When the end justifies the means there is no crime the state can commit that is not justified.

The PRC never reported those deaths. (Assuming they even knew how many died) Even when the bodies of thousands of Chinese who’d starved to death were washing up on the Hong Kong and Japanese beaches, the PRC denied what was happening. To this day we do not know how many millions died. All we have is an estimate of between 15 and 50 MILLION. Westerners like Sydney Shapiro, who lived in China and worked for the ministry of translation (Propaganda) believed to their dying day that the numbers tallied by the UK and Japan were “Imperialist Propaganda.”

Totalitarian states have a vested interest in treating citizens well, though always with harsh court systems, because the most pressing issue the totalitarian regime faces is staying in power. Staying in power is the goal. The continuance of the state is the objective. Maintaining their grasp of the population is the means. Avoiding prison or the gallows the reason.

The social contract totalitarians make with populations is, “Tow the party line and you’ll be treated well. But, step out of line and we’ll cut you off at the knees.” That ceases to work if things are not great in the hinterland. They have to look good, at home and abroad.

So, no the PRC would not over report because it would mean the population had a reason to doubt that the government was legitimate. It would foment domestic unrest and threaten to undermine the existence of the state.

I realize this is a hard thing to understand but the PRC is not greatly more corrupt than the US at this point. It is also I think the nation with the greater percentage of it’s population that is Christian. The citizen there, at this time are not appreciably less free than the US. Not that the PRC is that great, but the US has gotten that bad.

Go ahead, flame away. I have my asbestos suit on.

Not good to paint the Chinese people with one broad brush because of the actions of their criminal leaders.

I say it is time for a surprise hit on their leaders because we know they bio-engineered the virus and let it go to infect the other nations. The accidental narrative is a cover-up.

When the virus blows back on them, they know they can lock up their citizens in their homes. This is something that would not be tolerated anywhere else. For these monsters, it is used as their Ace Card. Locking up their citizens is a winning move.

The trouble is, America under Pay for Play Biden, is counting on Chine to line his pockets. This hit will have to come from elsewhere.

I am not Chinese, but I speak the language fluently, and have lived in China (in 2018). I have lived in Taiwan several times. It is like night and day. I was blessed to travel to Hong Kong before the CCP forced the UK to give it up. (HK was a tiny fishing village before the British took it over as war booty. Under their governance it went on to become one of the world’s great commercial cities.)

Every line in this statement is as wrong as it is possible to imagine.

There is the old philosopher’s question about whether anyone ever intentionally does evil. The CCP and its leadership may not see themselves as evil.

But they are.

Another Fauci, media and corrupt democrats ploy for the world to see, like early in this plandemic 2020 this videos came about that turned out to be staged, all fake, but scared the whole world into lockdown. You don't collapse from common cold corona virus. This COVID thing all hoax from the gitgo.

Sharyl Atkinson has arfticle

CDC: 74% who got Covid-19 and most who were hospitalized in recent analysis had been fully vaccinated!

https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3980683/posts

If so, hospital maybe overwhelmed by people having severe adverse side effects from the jabs.

Nowadays if you go to the Forest Lawn cemetery you look around to always see in all directions dead people are being buried.

Hospitals have makeshift morques to accomodate unusual number of people dying from DOA to succumbing from heart problems.

Oh yeah, they're claiming it killed by delta variant!

Fauci, media and corrupt democrats are following the philosophy of Joseph Goebbles on the big lie.

“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”

To repress dissent! You can't post anything truthfull in the Youtube, Facebook, and Google filtering out anything truthful.
For the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie!
Truth is the greatest enemy of the State.

Here is Texas gas penetration rate.

The 65 plus age cohort is above 70% vaccinated in Texas

https://usafacts.org/visualizations/covid-vaccine-tracker-states/state/texas

Texas has vaxed 578K 80 year old plus
2.2 million 65 to 79 and 3.2 million 50 to 64 year olds.

Out of that group of over 5.5 million people only 40 died since they were vaccinated from February onwards.

40 out of 5.5 million that’s 0.00065898%

A clearer picture of vaccine effectiveness could not be asked for. Compare that to the 8000+ unvaccinated deaths over the same timeframe Texas as a whole is 44% vaccinated fora 60/40 split of the vaccines didn’t work the deaths would also be a 60/40 split they are not even close and to say otherwise is an outright lie.
