China’s Deadly Lies About COVID: If a lethal strain invades from China, thank the bunglers at the CDC.
Frontpage Mag ^ | 01/09/2023 | Betsy McCaughey

The only thing not going viral in China is the truth. Chinese officials are spewing lies to cover up the massive COVID outbreak there.

Worse, U.S. public health officials dawdled for a week, allowing air travelers from China in without testing, while other countries immediately blocked infected travelers from entering.

Aerial photos and videos from China show body bags stacked outside hospitals and crematoria, funeral home parking lots full and hospitals overwhelmed with COVID patients jammed into hallways. In Beijing and Sichuan, over 50% of the population is infected, according to internal government documents.

Yet the Chinese government officially claims there was only one COVID death in all of China on Dec. 31, none on Dec. 30 and one on Dec. 29. That’s in a nation of 1.4 billion people.

More dangerously, China is also withholding laboratory evidence about what strains are sickening its population. Is it the omicron variants we are accustomed to treating, or something new? We are all part of the human race and need to share this information.

People in China are rushing to the exits. Outbound airline bookings nearly tripled in the 24 hours after the government announced travel restrictions that have been in place for almost three years would be lifted.

It’s reasonable that the U.S. and other countries are requiring air passengers from China — of any ethnicity — to provide a negative COVID test to board.

MSNBC’s TheReidOut Blog is slamming the COVID test requirement as “jingoistic, reactionary and inhumane.”

MSNBC is in sync with the Chinese Communist Party. Chinese officials are attacking the test requirement as “discriminatory” and warning that it will discourage global cooperation. What cooperation? China still refuses to allow investigations of how the virus originated.

On Sunday, former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo exclaimed that in 2020, China’s President Xi Jinping “sent people around the world who he knew were infected.” Now “he’s doing it again.” Pompeo said, “There is no reason we should allow the Chinese to do this again.”

Amen.

The debate over whether to restrict travelers from China reveals the cowardice in our nation’s public health apparatus.

On Dec. 28, Italy imposed a negative COVID test requirement, after nearly half the passengers on two flights from China to Milan were found to be infected. Italy made its requirement effective immediately.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention also announced its testing rule on Dec. 28, but made the start date Jan. 5. That’s crazy.

Officials said the test would “help limit the number of infected people” coming in from China. So why wait until Jan. 5? To make life easier for airlines.

United Airlines, Delta Airlines and American Airlines are operating dozens of flights from China to American cities each week.

Lawrence Gostin, a public health lawyer at the World Health Organization, said the distant date “could let in a flood of visitors who are not vetted.”

If a lethal strain invades from China, thank the bunglers at the CDC.

It’s also worrisome that many U.S. scientists reject the most basic tool of infection control — separating the sick from the healthy. These scientists, infused with a globalist mentality and misplaced loyalties, argue the U.S. should rely on vaccination only and allow everyone in.

That’s wrong. The U.S. needs to employ every tool — travel controls as well as vaccines — to protect our population. In the United States, the latest COVID strain, dubbed XBB, resists vaccines and boosters. Fortunately, it’s somewhat mild, and isn’t causing a surge in deaths.

But what if China is coping with a variant that resists vaccines and causes serious illness?

In China, infections are spreading so fast that scientists predict new variants will emerge soon. “The situation in China makes us very worried,” reflected Emory University scientist Wilbur Lam. The world needs to be notified as soon as new variants appear. China won’t cooperate.

This is no time for political correctness or fuzzy globalist thinking. Travelers from China who are infected must be barred from the U.S.

And the CDC must toughen up. Our lives could be at stake.

Poor Betsy does not understand much about communism, does she?

Is it Cold-19, the Vax, or Both?

It took just ONE infected passenger arriving at Seattle last time to set off the whole nightmare. "The 35 year old passenger arrived Jan. 19. 2020 at an urgent-care clinic in a suburb north of Seattle with a slightly elevated temperature and a cough he’d developed soon after returning four days earlier from a visit with family in Wuhan, China."

Brandon didn't want to be labeled xenophobic or racist, but he relented.

Step 1: Introduce COVID-19. Tell everyone it’s super deadly. It isn’t, but the politicians will go overboard re-configuring society to save everyone from the super deadly virus. Although not super deadly, it will kill hundreds of thousands, mostly old people. Yay!

Step 2: Introduce a fake vaccine. Tell everyone it prevents the transmission of the virus and will stop them from getting sick. It won’t, but the politicians will go overboard forcing transportation facilities and businesses to enforce the use of experimental drugs on everyone. Although useless against the virus, the “vaccines” will kill hundreds of thousands and do long-term damage to fertility. Yay!

Step 3: Unleash the real virus. And the follow-up “vaccine”. Crash the population for real. People won’t know which path is the safe path. Because there is no safe path and there is no one left to trust. Yay!

All it takes is ONE as we learned in January 2020. "Limit the number" is utterly ridiculous. But it is Brandon's government doing this.

Despite some of my friends on FB who think there is no urgency to determine , once and for all, the true origins of COVID. I have an unsettling question.

IF, just if the CCP created it what is to stop them from doing it again? With all of these mutation arising naturally it seems to be a simple thing to GE a slightly worse strain and release it again. If they are guilty wouldn’t they say “well it worked once let’s do it again”?

If their economy is faltering due to COVID wouldn’t it keep them from falling behind to make the rest of the planet go through that again? Morality is not a quality the CCP is known for.

It does only take “one”, but I think there were far more than just “patient zero” from Seattle.

The mindset of the CCP is to make sure and spread the misery lest they lose some kind of real or imagined advantage.

The CDC, the FDA, the FBI, the DOJ.

All three letter Agencies, which have become the equivalent o the four letter words that are dreaded in regular language.

IOW, harmful. Government against the people.

The following is a transcript of a speech believed to have been given by Mr. Chi Haotian, Minster of Defense and vice-chairman of China’s Central Military Commission. Independently verifying the authorship of the speech is NOT possible. It is worth reading because it is believed to set out the CCP’s strategy for the development of China. The speech argues for the necessity of China using biological warfare to depopulate the United States and prepare it for a future massive Chinese colonization.
In the speech Haotian set out the CCP’s strategy for the development of China. The speech argues for the necessity of China using biological warfare to depopulate the United States and prepare for a future massive Chinese colonization.

In this speech, Mr. Chi Haotian spoke openly about China’s need for “more living space” and stated bluntly that the United States, Canada and Australia are the only places LARGE enough to accommodate future Chinese needs.

He notes the need for a quick, effective biological attack upon the U.S. to depopulate it as a prelude to conquest, and plainly states that China is working genetic bio-weapons to kill everyone except “yellow people.”

His chilling remarks boast of a recent survey of the Chinese public wherein upwards of 80% were willing to “shoot and kill women, children and prisoners of war” as part of such an effort.

More frightening was his admission of an ongoing deliberate deception of the U.S.A. with China portraying itself as a peaceful business partner, while actually planning to kill “one or two hundred million Americas.”

He also noted that thanks to trade, income from Chinese exports is providing the financing needed to vastly expand Chinese military might in PREPARATION for an attack upon the U.S.A. which he seems to indicate will occur within 5 to 10 years.

It’s been whispered for a while but officially it doesn’t exist. That is ethnically targeted Bio warfare. I bet it does. Reminds me of years ago there was a great sci fI book that illustrated a bio weapon based on sex. Terrifying concept. 51289-E93-7-CCD-498-C-B177-713-EA3420-A43

Restricting travelers doesn't do anything.

Though, it remains that the US and Canada are to blame for the COVID-19 pandemic because of their funding and promotion of coronavirus research at foreign labs.

My wife was very ill between Thanksgiving and Christmas 2019, too. I wasn’t home then, but our kids said they had never seen Mom so sick before. She rarely gets sick.

Yes, there were lots of strange respiratory illnesses in the USA in the last quarter of 2019.

But the official “Patient Zero” is that guy in Seattle who arrived from Wuhan. At least that is the official government story and they are sticking to it.

“United Airlines, Delta Airlines and American Airlines are operating dozens of flights from China to American cities each week.”

And yet they will fire any of their own employees not submitting to jabs as a “ public health risk”

I took my next door neighbor to the hospital at 5:30 AM early October 2019. He had all the evidences of COVID-19 and stayed in the hospital 6 days out of 10 that he was sick.
I, too, came down with what he had but with a milder case (12 years younger). That was several months after China ordered 300K PCR tests and the same month that Wuhan’s hospitals and the buildings connecting them were full of patients.

Italy went back and saw it in blood samples taken on September 3 2019. Also those same researchers detected it geographically across Italy in September 2019.
