90% of people in China province Henan infected with COVID: official
NY Post ^ | 01/09/2023 | Isabel Keane

As China battles an unprecedented COVID surge, nearly 90% of Henan — the third most populous province — has now been infected with the virus, a top health official said Monday.

Kan Quancheng, the director of the health commission for central Henan province, said that as of Jan. 6, the infection rate was 89%.

With Henan’s population being about 99.4 million, the data would suggest that 88.5 million residents have now been positive for COVID.

Visits to fever clinics hit their peak on Dec. 19 — mere weeks after China began easing its brutal “zero-COVID” policies.

After that surge late last month, the number of COVID cases “showed a continuous downward trend,” Kan said during a press conference Monday.

So they are infected? 90%, if they show any symptoms at all, will have flu like symptoms for a couple of days and recover on their own. Then they will have natural immunity.

So. It appears that China is approaching herd immunity and that the virus will burn itself out after killing however many people it is going to kill. This is what epidemics and viruses do.

The only question is, how many Chinese will be dead from the virus when this is over and will we ever have anything approaching a real answer?

Wow, talk about letting it rip.

This matches what I am hearing from Chinese friends - all their friends and relatives back in China seem to have COVID at the same time. Some suspect that the Government has deliberately spread it, to get it over with.

After such a massive wave of infection, there will likely follow a steep crash in case numbers.

"The only question is, how many Chinese will be dead from the virus when this is over and will we ever have anything approaching a real answer?"

To the last part in general, the answer is "no". We still don't know what was really up with the Mandalay Bay shootup in Las Vegas, and if the bits and pieces out there are true showing Covid to have significant DOD involvement, Hillary's "necks in nooses" comment might become a reality.

Not so much from the "pureblood" side, but from those whose lives may be damaged for having been part of a large scale Tuskeegee experiment. Those damaged may decide to make something meaningful out of their wrecked lives by righting a great wrong, and "mercy" won't factor into it.

That's why great pains will be made to obscure the truth.

Most of the D3 and Zinc consumed here is made in China. The Han Chinese are supposed to have one of the world’s highest IQs. Yet they are idiots here. They could spread around D3 and Zinc to everyone in China. Ivermectin too. Though, my guess is India the prime manufacturer for Ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine. Chine could easily gear up to make those two in vast quantities to distribute to their population..

A triumph of CCP/Chinese stupidity. Ivermectin and HCQ are used more here, than in China.

Is this yet another Covid variant? Caused by vaccination into a pandemic? It couldn’t be Covid the original? Is it covered by the super 4 ply vax?

Is it another manmade Wuhan virus?

In China, there is nothing to prevent or to treat covid. There was no vaccine, no vitaminD3, no ivermectin, no treatment at all.

Actually everywhere there are patients receiving IV's. In hospital halls, parking lots and the sidewalks. The condition is so bad that out on the streets, cables have been strung between street light poles to which Iv bags are hung because of a shortage of IV poles.

I have seen no reports about the need or absence of the ventilators progressive ass holes trashed President Trump with

Here is but one of many that depicts only Shanghai. Identical conditions prevail all across China and such conditions are creeping out of the cities into rural areas.

Doesn’t that mean the case rate has to fall fast going forward? Or are they all going to just keep catching it over and over?

Now that’s what you call “herd immunity”.

You provided the opening for additional cross examination and testimony. ( I think about being a lawyer on TV)

It is not only well known but very widely publicized that the #1 problem for the CCP is demographics. The population is heavily skewed toward the aged. The actual covid plague destroying China is for the CCP a population sorting miracle. If enough old people die of covid, the CCP is saved

Xi is in the process of re exerting heavy duty communism and destruction of the freedom that has gotten out of hand. With demographic upsetting of the applecart, the CCP can take advantage and exert control not otherwise possible.

There is however a big problem. Will the younger not revolt against a CCP that is not only totally ineffective but just plain disgusting

Is it still 100% of the tested goat and paw-paw populations in Tanzania that came up positive as well?

88 million huh?

My take: There is a serious outbreak of COVID. And the Chinese want to share the misery. But, if their travelers are quarantined, they'll have time infecting the rest of the world. They are protesting COVID tests on their travelers, so instead they're going to pretend that everybody in China has had it, and its burned itself out.
