Coronavirus Is the Chinese Government’s Curse upon the World

COVID-19 Is the Chinese Government’s Curse upon the World

By David Harsanyi, National Review, March 18, 2020:

If the Chinese government spent as much time working on educating its people and regulating dangerous markets as it does on secrecy and propaganda efforts, maybe it wouldn’t have to worry as much about diseases being named after it.

The World Health Organization and other sensitive souls have instructed us to stop referring to the new strain of coronavirus as the “Wuhan” or “Chinese” flu because of the racist connotations. I’m disinclined to curb my speech to placate Chinese propagandists — and it seems to me the aversion to those terms is less about racism than about averting blame. But in the spirit of comity, and avoiding disparaging an entire nation, I’m happy to call it the ChiCom Flu moving forward.

There are many traditional naming conventions that don’t really make that much sense. Somewhat weirdly, for example, we often name diseases after the people who “discover” them — Hodgkin’s disease after Thomas Hodgkin, Parkinson’s disease after James Parkinson, and so on.

Story continues below advertisement

But naming viral diseases after places — Guinea Worm, West Nile Virus, Ebola, Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, etc. — is probably just intuitive. Viruses “come” from someplace, after all, and thus people gravitate to those names. I doubt we came up with “Lyme disease” because of some deep enmity towards Connecticut.

Anyway, “COVID-19” or “H1N1” don’t exactly roll off the tongue.

The latter was, until very recently, widely referred to as the “Spanish flu,” a virus that killed around 675,000 Americans and tens of millions of others around the world in the early 1900s. “Spanish flu” has now retroactively fallen into disfavor as well. And to be fair, there is some historical evidence that the virus may actually have originated in China or France, so if we must call it the French flu moving forward, so be it.

Some reports show that the Spanish Flu started in Kansas City… thus… we can call it the Kansas City Flu…

And… evidence shows CV19 was created in a North Carolina University… paid by taxpayers…

So… we can call it the American Virus…

got to disagree with you here, trump is not at fault, its a global pandemic started in china, after china failed to contain it and after they kept the world in the dark about its spread. trump is doing the best he can, and listening to the experts. is it a perfect response? no but any action he took would be criticized.

The massive lying idiot Trumpo (trumpet mouth) is responsible…

The very first cases we encountered here in America were from incoming flights… The idiot Trumpo failed to ban ALL flights…

Two weeks ago… people could still leave China and catch a flight in Thailand to America…

Two weeks age when northern Italy was banned… all anyone had to do was catch a flight in Southern Italy to America…

Not to mention his stupid Task Force telling people masks aren’t needed…

The massive lying idiot Trumpo is most certainly responsible… He has failed America…

The Coronavirus Outbreak Could Disrupt the U.S. Drug Supply
By Yanzhong Huang, CFR Expert
3/5/20

March 5, 2020

The United States also relies on these two countries (China and India) for its supply of generic drugs, which account for 90 percent [PDF] of the medicines that Americans take. India supplies 40 percent of over-the-counter and generic prescription drugs used in the United States.

Why would China want to go to war when you can control the global economy?

Didn’t you get the memo?

Spanish Flu is now the fault of the Americans.

Apparently since the Left has dumbed us down to the point that we don’t realize that America was almost alone in keeping epidemiological records, some enterprising Leftist (I know – they’re rare) … has blamed an American soldier drafted from his family’s pig farm in the mid-west for the whole thing.

It’s the Howard Zinning of our history – selective memory + cherry picking = America is always to blame.

While I accept the possibility – since I have no way to refute it –

…. the sheer unmitigated gall of the tale plus the thousands of other lies Lefties tell

… just pegs my Bravo Sierra detector.

Tuskegee experiment was a blight on the USA and there have been others (e.g. Trail of Tears, slavery). But all those atrocities are well over 60 years old and one atrocity doesn’t justify another — especially those in the present day.

Chicom Flu … CCP Flu … Xi Flu

or – at William Diamon’s suggestion –

“the bioweapon formerly known as the Wuhan Virus”

All great alternative suggestions …

The communist dictatorship of China is entirely responsible for this Virus.

They’re responsible for their sloppy lab contaminating the general population. They’re responsible for lying about it – and now we know for up to two months – they were still claiming human-to-human transmission had not occurred on 14 Jan 2020 knowing full well that was a lie. And if the virus has any man-made components – they’re responsible for that too whether they modified the virus or stole it from a Western bio-research lab.

Communist – Government Uber Alles – China OWNS this from Soup to Nuts … or Bat Soup to Toilet Paper Rolls …

… and we should make the Commie Killers wear it.

Coronavirus Sars-Cov-2 should be China’s Chernobyl.

Time to outlaw that dammed regime and sent it to into the bottomless pit where it belongs …

Well, I love that sentiment Dan … how do you propose we do that?

Great question, Dan, I’m glad you asked …

… American traitors created the Chinese beast in a bipartisan effort to destroy America …

… They gave American business a fantastic opportunity …

… Rape the nation, rape your corporation, rape your employees, steal anything and everything not nailed down, violate every regulation for economic or security reasons for impunity and the traitors will regulate your competition and small businesses out of existence, and we will protect your ill-gotten gains no matter what

… Just deport everything to China

… In the end we destroyed 98% of our manufacturing industries – that’s by head count – not by market share – making it almost impossible for small businesses with less than 1000 employees or a market cap lower than the NYSE thresholds to survive – and effectively terminating the existence of mom&pop shops in most industrial sectors.

… and deported about 240MM manufacturing jobs to China

… and no – that’s not only not a typo – yes, that number is greater than the total population of the USA when the traitors started their treason. But the fact is that’s the number of jobs we shipped to China.

… So much for “automation” taking your job.

… and those are just the sh*t jobs – factory floor type crap. That does not include professionals, small businesses, high-end services, or anything else.

… Seriously folks … how do you think the Chinese could go from a nation that could not provide its slaves with electricity to a nation that makes everything we can make in just 40 years – WHEN WE CAN’T EVEN GET PERMISSION TO MAKE HALON and PUT AN END TO AIRCRAFT FIRES.

Seems like a long rabbit trail … but the way to destroy China is as OBVIOUS as my fat gut in the mirror …

1. Outlaw the Left – which means Close the Border – that will do it.

2. Restore the Common Law – just pick judges with brains and a respect for the Rule of Law

And

3. MAKE EVERYTHING WE USE IN AMERICA! …

It will take 20 years … business will have to open their own training shops and schools b/c the public schools are too worthless … but that’s how it can be done.

China does not have a customer like us. They can’t sell their stuff to anyone but us – right now. If we make our own stuff – their economy will change or collapse. Either way the government will fall. Just like the USSR.

Make China Great Again … by Making America Great Again …

That’s why the Chicoms and the Left both hate us.

I used to know a Christian Chinese woman. She said grace before every meal. She did charitable work both here in the US and in China. Her missionary work in the PRC made her appreciate the US more. Similarly the director of my department is of Chinese ancestry and he hired me and other gweilo to work for him — he doesn’t refer to us that way either. He’s a helluva nice guy and he doesn’t like the government of the PRC either.

The first thing Trump understands about business and foreign policy is “Respect Your Enemy.”
So he stops short of saying it: This is an act of war by China.
After four decades of being sold to China by our government, starting with Bush I and culminating in total capitulation by the doomed African dictator “obama,” we don’t have the option of any further surrender.

Yes, lets waste time and funds having press conferences and meeting because people prefer to call it Wuhan or Chinese flu. After all, a cure or vaccination is secondary to not upsetting the district of Wuhan or cast a remote or possible aspersion upon China.

Do we stop referring to that restaurant in town we like that serves “Chinese” food? Should we stop calling our dishes “fine China”? How petty and, well, petty of the WHO and its big brother the UN, “serious” news sources, AOC (what a brain!), and the politically correct.

Convid-19 simply doesn’t roll off the tongue but Chinese or Wuhan flu does.

BTW, look into the history of the fool who runs the WHO. He was a government health minister and wouldn’t call a cholera outbreak what it was, so leading to deaths. Oh, its just belly aches. Sorry, I simply cannot drink the water. I don’t want to drink it and possibly die. Ergo, I trust him as I would a dangerous snake – not at all.

The editor of the Epoch Times a newspaper founded by Nationalist Chinese to counter the propaganda of the Chinese Communist Party and which I heartily recommend to all wrote his readers yesterday and asked that the Wuhan flu be referred to as the CCP Virus as it was engineered, released and spread by the Chinese Communist Party to cover up their collapsing economy and to spread fear and chaos among the West whose market collapse they greatly profited from short sales.

If you are truly interested in the People’s Republic of China and want accurate up to date information,then I recommend the Epoch Times. Her is what they say in a recent letter:

“In times like these, you need trusted information.

The Epoch Times was months ahead of other media in covering the CCP virus, commonly referred to as the novel coronavirus.

Similarly, The Epoch Times was among the first to report on the SARS epidemic in 2003.

That is because we are truly independent and not afraid of reporting honestly on the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and the threat it poses to the world.

Now, during the CCP virus outbreak, the CCP is flooding the world with deceptive propaganda, and The Epoch Times is at the forefront of exposing the truth.

See through the deception, and keep yourself and your family truly informed, by reading The Epoch Times.

Healthline Reports:

1) “They found the average sneeze or cough can send around 100,000 contagious germs into the air at speeds up to 100 miles per hour”

Note: CV19 IS an Aerosol…

2) While aerosols that carry the germs eventually drop to the ground, that takes time.

“Given the small size of bioaerosol droplets (diameter less than the width of a human hair), they can remain suspended in the air for prolonged periods of time, from seconds to weeks,” said Haddrell.”

Slate Reports:

Sneezes Travel Really, Really Far​… Up to 200 feet.

CV19 can linger in the AIR for 3 HOURS…
