Thanks for that. I forgot that, yes, the Chinese work under a higher power. Unlike the Bushes, Clintons and Obamas where the goal is to compile as much money as possible while in office, the Chinese are aware of the Higher Power that may judge them for not doing a good job for the country.

The USA used to have such a guiding principle: One Nation Under God. But that is another casualty of the Godless media which has done its damnedest to drum religions (except Islam) out of our culture.

Very interesting, thanks for this info.

It makes one wonder, if a person who has pre-existing immunity and who has been uninfected and unexposed to the new corona virus, why this is true?

Perhaps looking at their do’s and don’ts would shed some light on this.

Seems like Jim DeMint has finally seen the light about China.

https://www.newsweek.com/ive-changed-my-mind-about-china-america-should-too-opinion-1504210

The money quote:

We gave China a chance. They blew it. It’s time to face the fact this so-called “partner” is in reality a corrupt, aggressive and vicious rival—strategically, militarily and economically. It’s time for Congress to face that fact and act upon it.

China is going to have big troubles. President Trump might never say he likes Xi again. In a sound byte when Maria Bartaromo was interviewing Trump, the president said he just didn’t want to talk about China.

Man, everybody’s mad at China. and damn right everybody ougta be mad.

I made shrimp with noodles last week and will work my other Chinese food favorites cause I ain’t buying.

It’s minor and I’m sure they’ll not miss my money but it looks to me like the world, especially America, is furious.

Pay attention to the Dems and see how they try to defend them.

The governors will decide. I am worried about Fauci who is less than enthusiastic about opening up.

Forgive me if I get a bit wordy but must post before forget.

I thought the very oddest interview of the day was with Alex Azar on CNN State of the Union.

Azar is the Secretary of Health and Human Services. This guy needs to work on his interviewing skills.

Tapper almost caught him a couple of times.

Azar was saying about why Americans die easier by the virus than any other. It was very awkward. Because Azar said, to the effect, that Americans have too many “comorbidities” was the word I think.

Which means other things besides a virus, like...well they always say diabetes first though I always wonder how diabetes has anything to do with anything....and asthma, cancer.....other illnesses they have when the virus attacks.

Jake Tapper almost jumps out of chair.....”are you saying that it’s Americans fault that they are so sick.”

Azar kind of mumbled....”No, no, of course I’m saying such a thing,”...remember I am paraphrasing....”but many more Americans who got this virus had more cormorbidities than found in other countries.”

Tapper pauses long and says....”Are you saying Americans don’t take care of themselves.”

“No, no, of course not,” Azar denies again. Americans have diabetes, obesity, cancer...”

He let out that word obese.

Actually I think Azar had a point. We probably do have more people with comorbidities than other countries because Americans get good health care and that word.....obese. Americans do live longer than many other countries I’d offer and thus their senior deaths after catching the virus is likely higher than, say, ....well China even.

The whole awkward interview lasted about five minutes but Azar does need more practice.

Are fat people responsible for being fat?

Azar was trying to be cool but he was struggling.

I got more to say but I’ll shut up now.

Forget the debt, about $1 trillion. We don’t make antibiotics in this country. We get most of them from China along with a host of other drugs. My lisonopril and statin drugs come from China. Car parts, machinery, clothing, electronic goods, rare earths (used for computer chips), etc. we consume over $500 billion a year of China’s exports.

We can decouple and start new supply chains, but that takes time.

Think what? Trump’s ultimate objective is to decouple. But first he has to buy time for that to happen. Navarro is the architect of that strategy. There are problems because the private sector is reluctant to disengage. They have huge investments there. And there are politicians on both sides of the aisle that balk at disengagement. Mitch and Diane have personally profited from China. So did Biden.

Trump is no fan of Xi or his “pal” in North Korea.

Answer might be in T cell response.

This article below is worth a read: note that the samples they used to test came before this current virus outbreak.

May 14/2020

Immune warriors known as T cells help us fight some viruses, but their importance for battling SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, has been unclear. Now, two studies reveal infected people harbor T cells that target the virus—and may help them recover. Both studies also found some people never infected with SARS-CoV-2 have these cellular defenses, most likely because they were previously infected with other coronaviruses.

The research teams asked whether people who haven’t been infected with SARS-CoV-2 also produce cells that combat it. Thiel and colleagues analyzed blood from 68 uninfected people and found that 34% hosted helper T cells that recognized SARS-CoV-2. The La Jolla team detected this crossreactivity in about half of stored blood samples collected between 2015 and 2018, well before the current pandemic began. The researchers think these cells were likely triggered by past infection with one of the four human coronaviruses that cause colds; proteins in these viruses resemble those of SARS-CoV-2.

The results suggest “one reason that a large chunk of the population may be able to deal with the virus is that we may have some small residual immunity from our exposure to common cold viruses,” says viral immunologist Steven Varga of the University of Iowa. However, neither of the studies attempted to establish that people with crossreactivity don’t become as ill from COVID-19.

Science’s COVID-19 reporting is supported by the Pulitzer Center. The Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting has some of the same usual suspects as donors and supporters. The Gates, the Rockefeller’s etc. See other here: https://pulitzercenter.org/donors

More youtube censorship and as always no reason given just that it violates “community standards”, which is code for the WHO would not like it. More BS. YOutube may have a monopoly now but it won’t last forever.Vimeo,photobucket,even netflix and others will replace it one day if not sooner.

We got a new gas stove last week. First thing the salesman wanted us to know was this gas stove is made right here in the South ( Charlotte NC). The rest were not. We got the NC one.
We are replacing all appliances as they only last about 5 years if made in Asia( China).

Buying only American now as much as we can.
