China Locks Down 1.6 Million People After Finding 1 Case of COVID-19
Epoch Times ^ | 8-3-22 | Nicole Hao

Yongcheng city in central Henan Province went under lockdown on Monday after one local was diagnosed with COVID-19 the day before.

As part of the lockdown, City authorities ordered all the 1.6 million residents must take at least one nucleic acid test from Monday to Wednesday and that only one person per household was allowed to leave home daily to run errands.

Also under lockdown rules, no public transportation is allowed to run, and all shops, companies, restaurants, and conference centers must be closed.

Only grocery stores, pharmacies, and hospitals are allowed to operate, but pharmacies aren’t allowed to sell medicines to treat a fever or cough, nor antivirus and antibiotics drugs.

The authorities also set up checkpoints in the city to monitor people’s movement and stop those without passes.

I think a city of 1.6 million people is considered small.

No man can buy or sell without the Mark of the Beast.

This is paving the way.

I’m amazed anybody still thinks it can’t happen.

And the democrats are salivating over the thought of being able to do that here.

I wonder if they report any monkeypox cases and will they lock down for that, too?

Side effect is that those isolated folks lower their immunity to everything around them, and will be weakened when they do go out.

They were reviewing their DNA database and found that they lacked samples of genetic material for a significant portion of the population. The demand for transplant organs is high and they are having trouble locating suitable donors due to their organ customers having rare blood types. While doing a search for possible matches, they found out that they didn’t have enough data on the residents of the city to make a comprehensive list. This is not sarcasm therefore no sarcasm off tag.

How could they possibly launch an invasion of Taiwan if they are so afraid of a virus?

That is a very good theory. I hadn’t thought of that before.

Of course, they could just order everybody to take a DNA test to fill the database.

Covid is just an excuse, the Commies want everyone locked down permanently.
All travel and trade only by permit.

Yeah. Never make it too obvious though. Otherwise it would be a called a tinfoil nut-job conspiracy.

Losing control over the populace.
