China locks down 3rd city, raising affected to 20 million
AP ^ | 1-11-21 | KEN MORITSUGU

Posted on 01/11/2022 6:36:35 AM PST by dynachrome

A third Chinese city has locked down its residents because of a COVID-19 outbreak, raising the number confined to their homes in China to about 20 million people.

The lockdown of Anyang, home to 5.5 million people, was announced late Monday after two cases of the omicron variant were reported. Residents are not allowed to go out and stores have been ordered shut except those selling necessities.

Another 13 million people have been locked down in Xi’an for nearly three weeks, and 1.1 million more in Yuzhou for more than a week. It wasn’t clear how long the lockdown of Anyang would last, as it was announced as a measure to facilitate mass testing of residents, which is standard procedure in China’s strategy of identifying and isolating infected people as quickly as possible.

The lockdowns are the broadest since the shutting down of Wuhan and most of the rest of Hubei province in early 2020 at the start of the pandemic.

“At what point does the rest of the world DEMAND that CHINA be NUKED...”

If that happened, I’d even support a temporary government subsidy for Wal-Mart and the Dollar Store until they could find new suppliers.

My God, that’s all we need here. And with Biden as POTUS? We’d have zero chance.

Just wait until airline passengers start bleeding from the eyes during the 20 hour flight back.

While double-checking something I read in a different article, I came across several studies that show over-the-counter antihistamines are effective at treating hemorrhagic diseases, including ebola! The antihistamines disrupt the feedback cycle that results in cytokine storm. Since the cytokine storm is what kills, this treatment result in a huge increase in survival rates, and applies to any disease for which cytokine storm is a factor.

“I typically joke with friends that a zombie apocalypse is the most plausible sci-fi doomsday story, because all someone has to do is weaponize rabies and we're there.”

I am now thinking that a weaponized virus outbreak could easily be far worse for the human race than a nuclear war. It's time to start eradicating, one way or another, labs that are known or suspected of conducting so called gain of function research.

On The Presence Of Non-Chinese At Anyang

"It has now become clear that finds of chariot remains, metal knives and axes of northern provenance, and bronze mirrors of western provenance in the tombs of Anyang indicate that the Shang had at least indirect contact with people who were familiar with these things. Who were these people? Where did they live? When did they arrive? "

"Following the discovery of the Tarim Mummies, we now know that the population of the earliest attested cultures of what is present-day Xinjiang were of northwestern or western derivation. According to the craniometric studies of Ran Kangxin, these people can be divided into three distinct types.

Read the latest Project Veritas drop.

The virus was designed by the US, made in China, via the good Dr Fauci.

This region of China has outbreaks of Hanta nearly every year as the rats and mice move indoors due to winter temps they bring their droppings with them when they dry out people sweep them up and that also puts virus particles into the air. Or the rodents droppings get into the food stores and contaminate it. Hantavirus is only airborne as fecal matter particles. You would need to get someone blood into your eyes mouth or genitals for person to person transmission. The doomers have convinced themselves China weaponized a seasonal rodent virus and unleashed it in some backwater province in their own back yard. Not likely at all.

“seasonal rodent virus”

Why the hard lockdown over a seasonal virus? Xi and his people lie all the time.

I worked in New Mexico for a while. Rural New Mexico.

Hanta outbreaks happened every once in a while.

"What is China hiding?"

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAAAAkoofkoofkoofBWAHJAHAAAAHAHAAA.

Who CARES? The idea that a Chinese-engineered bioweapon that was specifically designed to take out "Usreless reaters", including their own? The higher the mandarin RIP at every level, the better place the free world is for our children and grand-children.

There is no greater legacy than if the US could somehow aid China's descent into a serious, Xi-compromising civil war. NOTHING.

If this turns out to be an Ebola/hemorrhagic fever type event/pandemic, then I would say massive Vitamin C would be the needed emergency treatment. Earlier this century when we had a US Ebola scare, I was paying attention. I soon decided “massive scurvy” as explaining the symptoms. While IV (intravenous) administration of high dose Vitamin C is the typical treatment, oral administration is also possible. On a wilderness campout I once treated a woman with 55 grams of VItamin C over 8 hours. She was stung in the neck by 3 yellow jackets and had forgotten her bee allergy kit. Her face an body were swollen, I eyes swollen shut and she was choking. I smashed 10 grams of C tablets, dissolved in a glass of water and had her drink that. In 20 minutes her eyes were open, she stopped choking, and the body swelling was diminished. I stayed with her for 8 hours giving her 5 grams each hour, until she said she felt well enough to be alone. I left her with the bottle of C and when I checked back the next day she had hiked out with friends 3 miles. Since Ebola is a virus, extra zinc would probably help. Stay tuned, pray this does NOT become pandemic. Dr, Robert Cathcart has a lot to say on line about high Vitamin C treatment of serious illness.

More likely they are isolating these 3 cities so as to avoid the embarrassment of canceled or infected Olympic visitors.
