thelibertybeacon--2020-03-31--Ten More Experts Criticizing the Coronavirus Panic

Dr. Sunetra Gupta et al .
are an Oxford-based research team constructing an epidemiological model for the coronavirus outbreak , their paper has yet to be peer-reviewed , but the abstract is available online .
Dr Gupta is a Professor of Theoretical Epidemiology at the University of Oxford with an interest in infectious disease agents that are responsible for malaria , HIV , influenza and bacterial meningitis .
She is a recipient of the Sahitya Akademi Award , the Scientific Medal by the Zoological Society of London and the Royal Society Rosalind Franklin Award for her scientific research .
What @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a German virologist whose research focused on retroviruses , particularly human immunodeficiency virus ( HIV ) .
She was a full professor and director of the Institute of Medical Virology at the University of Zurich from 1993 until her retirement in 2008 and received multiple honours and awards for her work .
What she says : You are now told every morning how many SARS-Corona 2 deaths there are .
But they don ’ t tell you how many people already are infected with influenza this winter and how many deaths it has @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is not severe , but around 80,000 are infected .
You don ’ t get these numbers at all .
Something similar occurred two years ago .
This is not put into the right context .
Every week a person dies in Berlin from multi-resistant germs .
That adds up to 35,000 a year in Germany .
This is not mentioned at all .
I believe that we have had situations like this several times and that the measures are now being taken too far .
I am of the opinion that maybe @ @ @ @ @ @ @ young people having parties together and infecting each other .
We have to build immunity somehow .
How can that be possible without contacts ?
The younger ones handle the infection much better .
But we have to protect the elderly , and protect them in a way that can be scrutinized ; is it reasonable what we are doing now , to stretch out the epidemic in a way that almost paralyzes the entire world economy ?
The Robert Koch Institute provides the figures .
Then you sit there as a listener @ @ @ @ @ @ @ how terrible !
Do you know when I would start to panic ?
If there are 20,000 .
Then we get close to what went on completely quietly two years ago .
The 2018 influenza epidemic , with 25,000 deaths , never disconcerted the press .
The clinics had to deal with an additional 60,000 patients , which was no problem in the clinics either !
That is the main fear : the disease is presented as a terrible disease .
The disease per se is like the flu in a normal winter @ @ @ @ @ @ @ first week .
Dr Anders Tegnell is a Swedish physician and civil servant who has been State Epidemiologist of the Public Health Agency of Sweden since 2013 .
Dr Tegnell graduated from medical school in 1985 , specialising in infectious disease .
He later obtained a PhD in Medical Science from Linköping University in 2003 and an MSc in 2004 .
What he says : Dr Pablo Goldschmidt is an Argentine-French virologist specializing in tropical diseases , and Professor of Molecular Pharmacology at the Université Pierre et Marie Curie in Paris .
He @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Pharmacy and Biochemistry of the University of Buenos Aires and Faculty of Medicine of the Hospital Center of Pitié-Salpetrière , Paris .
He currently resides in France , where he has worked for almost 40 years as a researcher in clinical laboratories developing diagnostic technology .
What he says : The ill-founded opinions expressed by international experts , replicated by the media and social networks repeat the unnecessary panic that we have previously experienced .
The coronavirus identified in China in 2019 caused nothing less than a strong cold or flu , with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ flu as we know ” Respiratory viral conditions are numerous and are caused by several viral families and species , among which the respiratory syncytial virus ( especially in infants ) , influenza ( influenza ) , human metapneumoviruses , adenoviruses , rhinoviruses , and various coronaviruses , already described years ago .
It is striking that earlier this year global health alerts have been triggered as a result of infections by a coronavirus detected in China , COVID-19 , knowing that each year there are 3 million newborns who die in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the United States for the same cause , without alarms being issued .
Our planet is the victim of a new sociological phenomenon , scientific-media harassment , triggered by experts only on the basis of laboratory molecular diagnostic analysis results .
Communiqués issued from China and Geneva were replicated , without being confronted from a critical point of view and , above all , without stressing that coronaviruses have always infected humans and always caused diarrhoea and what people call a banal cold or common cold .
Absurd forecasts were extrapolated , as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
There is no evidence to show that the 2019 coronavirus is more lethal than respiratory adenoviruses , influenza viruses , coronaviruses from previous years , or rhinoviruses responsible for the common cold .
Dr Eran Bendavid and Dr Jay Bhattacharya are professors of medicine and public health at Stanford University .
What they say : Dr Tom Jefferson is a British epidemiologist , based in Rome .
He works for the Cochrane Collaboration , where he is an author and editor of the Cochrane Collaboration ’ s acute respiratory infections group , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Cochrane groups .
He is also an advisor to the Italian National Agency for Regional Health Services .
What he says : So I can not answer my nagging doubts , there does not seem to be anything special about this particular epidemic of influenza-like illness .
There are , however , two consequences of this situation that bother me .
The first is the lack of institutional credibility as perceived by my friends .
They range from firefighters , policemen , and even a GP — not the kind of people you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
A restaurant owner told me he would never report himself to the health authority as that would mean at least two weeks of closure and his business would go to the wall .
The second is that once the limelight has moved on , will there be a serious and concentrated international effort to understand the causes and origins of influenza-like illnesses and the life cycle of its agents ?
Past form tells me not , and we will go back to pushing influenza as a universal plague under the roof of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Note the difference : Influenza ( caused by influenza A and B viruses , for which we have licensed vaccines and drugs ) , not influenza-like illnesses against which we should wash our hands all the year round , not just now .
Meanwhile , I still can not answer Mario ’ s question : what ’ s different this time ?
Dr Michael Levitt is Professor of biochemistry at Stanford University .
He is a Fellow of the Royal Society ( FRS ) , a member of the National Academy of Sciences @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Chemistry for the development of multiscale models for complex chemical systems .
In February this year , he correctly modeled that the China outbreak was coming to an end , predicting around 80,000 cases and 3250 deaths .
What he says : German Network for Evidence-Based Medicine is an association of German scientists , researchers and medical professionals .
The network was founded in 2000 to disseminate and further develop concepts and methods of evidence-based and patient-oriented medicine in practice , teaching and research , and today has around 1000 members .
What @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cases , COVID-19 takes the form of a mild cold or is even symptom-free .
Therefore , it is highly unlikely that all cases of infection are recorded , in contrast with deaths which are almost completely recorded .
This leads to an overestimation of the CFR .
According to a study of 565 Japanese people evacuated from Wuhan , all of whom were tested ( regardless of symptoms ) , only 9.2 % of infected people were detected with currently used symptom-oriented COVID-19 monitoring [ 5 ] .
This would mean that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to be about 10 times greater than the number of registered cases .
The CFR would then only be about one tenth of that currently measured .
Others assume an even higher number of unreported cases , which would further reduce the CFR .
The widespread availability of SARS-CoV-2 tests is limited .
In the USA , for example , an adequate , state-funded testing facility for all suspected cases has only been available since 11.3.2020 [ 6 ] .
In Germany as well , there were occasional bottlenecks which contribute to an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ disease spreads , it becomes increasingly difficult to identify a suspected source of infection .
As a result , common colds in people who unknowingly had contact with a COVID-19 patient are not necessarily associated with COVID-19 and those affected do not go to the doctor at all .
An overestimation of the CFR also occurs when a deceased person is found to have been infected with SARS-CoV-2 , but this was not the cause of death .
[ T ] he CFR of 0.2 % currently measured for Germany is below the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ calculated influenza CFRs of 0.5 % in 2017/18 and 0.4 % in 2018/19 , but above the widely accepted figure of 0.1 % for which there is no reliable evidence .
Beyond the ( rather questionable ) conclusions drawn from the historical example , there is little evidence that NPIs for COVID-19 actually lead to a reduction in overall mortality .
A Cochrane Review from 2011 found no robust evidence for the effectiveness of border control screenings or social distancing .
A systematic review from 2015 found moderate evidence that school closures delay @ @ @ @ @ @ @ but at high cost .
Isolation at home slows down the spread of influenza but leads to increased infection of family members .
It is questionable whether these findings can be transferred from influenza to COVID-19 .
It is completely unclear how long the NPIs must be maintained and what effects could be achieved depending on their duration and intensity .
The number of deaths might only be postponed to a later point in time , without any change in the total number .
Many questions remain unanswered .
On the one hand @ @ @ @ @ @ @ alarming reports of an exponentially increasing number of ill and dead people worldwide .
On the other hand , the media coverage in no way considers our required criteria for evidence-based risk communication .
The media is currently communicating raw data , for example , there have been “ X ” infected persons and “ Y ” deaths to date .
However , this presentation fails to distinguish between diagnoses and infections .
– “ Covid19 : Where is the evidence ?
” , statement on their website , March 20th 2020 Dr @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Officer of Ontario , Medical Officer of Hastings and Prince Edward Public Health and Chief of Staff at York Central Hospital .
What he says : [ F ] ar more cases are out there than are being reported .
This is because many cases have no symptoms and testing capacity has been limited .
There have been about 100,000 cases reported to date , but , if we extrapolate from the number of reported deaths and a presumed case-fatality rate of 0.5 per cent , the real number is probably closer to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ or asymptomatic .
Likewise , the actual rate of new cases is probably at least 10,000 a day .
If these numbers sound large , though , remember that the world is a very big place .
From a global perspective , these numbers are very small .
Second , the Hubei outbreak – by far the largest , and a kind of worst-case scenario – appears to be winding down .
How bad was it ?
Well , the number of deaths was comparable to an average influenza season .
That ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s not catastrophic , either , and it isn ’ t likely to overwhelm a competent health-care system .
Not even close .
I am not preaching complacency .
This disease is not going away any time soon ; we should expect more cases and more local outbreaks .
And COVID-19 still has the potential to become a major global health problem , with an overall burden comparable to that of influenza .
We need to be vigilant in our surveillance .
But we also need to be sensible .
Quarantine belongs back @ @ @ @ @ @ @ masks for robbing banks .
Stay calm and carry on .
Let ’ s not make our attempted cures worse than the disease .
– “ Strictly by the numbers , the coronavirus does not register as a dire global crisis ” , Globe and Mail , 11th March 2020 Another thank you to Swiss Propaganda Research for their excellent work , as well as to all the commenters who provided names and suggestions BTL on the previous piece .
They are not all included , for various reasons , but it was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ voices from other fields , be they philosophers or human rights lawyers , have criticised the response to the outbreak , but we made the decision to limit these lists solely to those experts in medicine or biological science .

10 MORE Experts Criticising the Coronavirus Panic
By Off Guardian: Following on from our previous list, here are ten more expert voices, drowned out or disregarded by the mainstream narrative, offering their take on the coronavirus outbreak.
Dr. Sunetra Gupta et al. are an Oxford-based research team constructing an epidemiological model for the coronavirus outbreak, their paper has yet to be peer-reviewed, but the abstract is available online.
Dr Gupta is a Professor of Theoretical Epidemiology at the University of Oxford with an interest in infectious disease agents that are responsible for malaria, HIV, influenza and bacterial meningitis. She is a recipient of the Sahitya Akademi Award, the Scientific Medal by the Zoological Society of London and the Royal Society Rosalind Franklin Award for her scientific research.
What they say:
Importantly, the results we present here suggest the ongoing epidemics in the UK and Italy started at least a month before the first reported death and have already led to the accumulation of significant levels of herd immunity in both countries. There is an inverse relationship between the proportion currently immune and the fraction of the population vulnerable to severe disease. – Fundamental principles of epidemic spread highlight the immediate need for large-scale serological surveys to assess the stage of the SARS-CoV-2 epidemic, 24th March 2020
The research presents a very different view of the epidemic to the modelling at Imperial College London […] “I’m surprised that there has been such unqualified acceptance of the Imperial model”, Dr Gupta said. […] The Oxford results would mean the country had already acquired substantial herd immunity through the unrecognised spread of covid19 over more than two months. Although some experts have shed doubt on the strength and length of the human immune response to the virus, Prof Gupta said the emerging evidence made her confident that humanity would build up herd immunity against Covid19 – “Coronavirus may have infected half the population”, Financial Times, 24th March 2020
Dr Karin Mölling is a German virologist whose research focused on retroviruses, particularly human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). She was a full professor and director of the Institute of Medical Virology at the University of Zurich from 1993 until her retirement in 2008 and received multiple honours and awards for her work.
What she says:
You are now told every morning how many SARS-Corona 2 deaths there are. But they don’t tell you how many people already are infected with influenza this winter and how many deaths it has caused. This winter, the flu is not severe, but around 80,000 are infected. You don’t get these numbers at all. Something similar occurred two years ago. This is not put into the right context. […] Every week a person dies in Berlin from multi-resistant germs. That adds up to 35,000 a year in Germany. This is not mentioned at all. I believe that we have had situations like this several times and that the measures are now being taken too far. I am of the opinion that maybe one should not do so much against young people having parties together and infecting each other. We have to build immunity somehow. How can that be possible without contacts? The younger ones handle the infection much better. But we have to protect the elderly, and protect them in a way that can be scrutinized; is it reasonable what we are doing now, to stretch out the epidemic in a way that almost paralyzes the entire world economy? […] The Robert Koch Institute provides the figures. Then you sit there as a listener or spectator: 20 dead again, how terrible! Do you know when I would start to panic? If there are 20,000. Then we get close to what went on completely quietly two years ago. The 2018 influenza epidemic, with 25,000 deaths, never disconcerted the press. The clinics had to deal with an additional 60,000 patients, which was no problem in the clinics either! […] That is the main fear: the disease is presented as a terrible disease. The disease per se is like the flu in a normal winter. It is even weaker in the first week. – Interview on Anti-Empire.com, 23rd March 2020

Dr Tegnell graduated from medical school in 1985, specialising in infectious disease. He later obtained a PhD in Medical Science from Linköping University in 2003 and an MSc in 2004.
What he says:
“All measures that we take must be feasible over a longer period of time.” Otherwise, the population will lose acceptance of the entire corona strategy. Older people or people with previous health problems should be isolated as much as possible. So no visits to children or grandchildren, no journeys by public transport, if possible no shopping. That is the one rule. The other is: Anyone with symptoms should stay at home immediately, even with the slightest cough. “If you follow these two rules, you don’t need any further measures, the effect of which is only very marginal anyway,” – “The World Stands Still…Except for Sweden”, Zeit.de, 24th March 2020
Dr Pablo Goldschmidt is an Argentine-French virologist specializing in tropical diseases, and Professor of Molecular Pharmacology at the Université Pierre et Marie Curie in Paris. He is a graduate of the Faculty of Pharmacy and Biochemistry of the University of Buenos Aires and Faculty of Medicine of the Hospital Center of Pitié-Salpetrière, Paris.
He currently resides in France, where he has worked for almost 40 years as a researcher in clinical laboratories developing diagnostic technology.
What he says:
The ill-founded opinions expressed by international experts, replicated by the media and social networks repeat the unnecessary panic that we have previously experienced. The coronavirus identified in China in 2019 caused nothing less than a strong cold or flu, with no difference so far with cold or flu as we know” […] Respiratory viral conditions are numerous and are caused by several viral families and species, among which the respiratory syncytial virus (especially in infants), influenza (influenza), human metapneumoviruses, adenoviruses, rhinoviruses, and various coronaviruses, already described years ago. It is striking that earlier this year global health alerts have been triggered as a result of infections by a coronavirus detected in China, COVID-19, knowing that each year there are 3 million newborns who die in the world of pneumonia and 50,000 adults in the United States for the same cause, without alarms being issued. […] Our planet is the victim of a new sociological phenomenon, scientific-media harassment , triggered by experts only on the basis of laboratory molecular diagnostic analysis results. Communiqués issued from China and Geneva were replicated, without being confronted from a critical point of view and, above all, without stressing that coronaviruses have always infected humans and always caused diarrhoea and what people call a banal cold or common cold. Absurd forecasts were extrapolated, as in 2009 with the H1N1 influenza virus. […] There is no evidence to show that the 2019 coronavirus is more lethal than respiratory adenoviruses, influenza viruses, coronaviruses from previous years, or rhinoviruses responsible for the common cold. – Interview on Clarin.com, 9th March 2020
Dr Eran Bendavid and Dr Jay Bhattacharya are professors of medicine and public health at Stanford University.
What they say:
[P]rojections of the death toll could plausibly be orders of magnitude too high […] The true fatality rate is the portion of those infected who die, not the deaths from identified positive cases. The latter rate is misleading because of selection bias in testing. The degree of bias is uncertain because available data are limited. But it could make the difference between an epidemic that kills 20,000 and one that kills two million. […] A universal quarantine may not be worth the costs it imposes on the economy, community and individual mental and physical health. We should undertake immediate steps to evaluate the empirical basis of the current lockdowns. “Is the Coronavirus as Deadly as They Say?”, Wall Street Journal, 24th March 2020
Dr Tom Jefferson is a British epidemiologist, based in Rome. He works for the Cochrane Collaboration, where he is an author and editor of the Cochrane Collaboration’s acute respiratory infections group, as well as part of four other Cochrane groups. He is also an advisor to the Italian National Agency for Regional Health Services.
What he says:
So I cannot answer my nagging doubts, there does not seem to be anything special about this particular epidemic of influenza-like illness. There are, however, two consequences of this situation that bother me. The first is the lack of institutional credibility as perceived by my friends. They range from firefighters, policemen, and even a GP — not the kind of people you would want to alienate in an emergency. A restaurant owner told me he would never report himself to the health authority as that would mean at least two weeks of closure and his business would go to the wall. The second is that once the limelight has moved on, will there be a serious and concentrated international effort to understand the causes and origins of influenza-like illnesses and the life cycle of its agents? Past form tells me not, and we will go back to pushing influenza as a universal plague under the roof of the hot house of commercial interest. Note the difference: Influenza (caused by influenza A and B viruses, for which we have licensed vaccines and drugs), not influenza-like illnesses against which we should wash our hands all the year round, not just now. Meanwhile, I still cannot answer Mario’s question: what’s different this time? – “Covid 19 — many questions, no clear answers”, British Medical Journal, 2nd March 2020
Dr Michael Levitt is Professor of biochemistry at Stanford University. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society (FRS), a member of the National Academy of Sciences and received the 2013 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for the development of multiscale models for complex chemical systems.
In February this year, he correctly modeled that the China outbreak was coming to an end, predicting around 80,000 cases and 3250 deaths.
What he says:
I don’t believe the numbers in Israel, not because they’re made up, but because the definition of a case in Israel keeps changing and it’s hard to evaluate the numbers that way… There is a lot of unjustified panic in Israel. I don’t believe the numbers here, everything is politics, not math. I will be surprised if number of deaths in Israel surpasses ten, and even five now with the restrictions. […] To put things in proportion, the number of deaths of coronavirus in Italy is 10% of the number of deaths of influenza in the country between 2016-2017. Even in China it’s hard to look at the number of patients because the definition of “patient” varies, so I look at number of deaths. In Israel there are none, so that’s why it’s not even on the world map for the disease.” – “Nobel laureate: surprised if Israel has more than 10 coronavirus deaths”, Jerusalem Post, 20th March 2020
[Levitt] analyzed data from 78 countries that reported more than 50 new cases of COVID-19 every day and sees “signs of recovery” in many of them. He’s not focusing on the total number of cases in a country, but on the number of new cases identified every day — and, especially, on the change in that number from one day to the next. “Numbers are still noisy, but there are clear signs of slowed growth.” “What we need is to control the panic,” he said. In the grand scheme, “we’re going to be fine.” – “Why this Nobel laureate predicts a quicker coronavirus recovery: ‘We’re going to be fine'”, Los Angeles Times, 22nd March 2020
German Network for Evidence-Based Medicine is an association of German scientists, researchers and medical professionals.
The network was founded in 2000 to disseminate and further develop concepts and methods of evidence-based and patient-oriented medicine in practice, teaching and research, and today has around 1000 members.

thelibertybeacon--2020-04-01--Pedophilia – The Playground of Hollywood & Politics

The first video presented was made and researched by author Janet Ossebaard .
This is the first in a series she put together .
She urges , “ Please do your own research and double check everything I present to you ” .
I ’ m sure she says that because much of it is quite alarming .
Towards the end , she gives convincing speculation that JFK , Jr is still alive and that his death , his wife ’ s and her sister ’ s were staged .
Also , she shows fascinating “ misspellings ” of Trump @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reveal he is fully aware of the cabal .
They may be pure conjecture but worth considering .
It helped me feel more confident that Trump knows the scene .
As gruesome as COVID-19 is , this data is the background story , you might say , detailing the brand of people who would create such a disaster .
Calling them “ people ” , though , is a misnomer and trying to describe them can leave you seething and wordless as images come of historic monsters , little more than animals .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ ?
Most of us have seen and read much data on the Rockefellers , the Clintons , the Rothchilds , the Jesuits , etc .
But never have I seen such disturbing details about their whole world , their very purpose in life – pedophilia .
The list of this group is much larger than I knew before , including startling ones among Hollywood stars .
Some were murdered for speaking out or turned into drug addicts and alcoholics after being sexually abused .
Here ’ s a partial list of offenders , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was dismayed to see Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks there .
Tragically , this pedophilic ring is their ticket to fame and fortune in many cases .
Fall Cabal Parts 1 – 10 The World Is About To Change It ’ s very clear now why Hollywood is little more than a bastion of the vilest crimes against our children , our future .
As Mel Gibson , now blacklisted , stated , “ Hollywood is an institutionalized pedophile ring , a den of parasites who feast on the blood of children ” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , played out with not a hint of remorse .
Justification of their crimes is all they know and becomes their mode of operation .
There ’ s no room for admitting to wrong-doing because then , they might see who they really are and they would cave .
It would be like being struck with two tons of rock .
Think of times you felt so guilty about doing or not doing something , like forgetting a birthday , getting a bit impatient with a child or co-worker or buying something you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ gnaw on you for hours or days as you seek to make retribution .
You are social .
You want to be and do good for others .
Not so for these life-destroyers .
They don ’ t dare .

Pedophilia – The Playground of Hollywood & Politics
By: TLB Staff Writer Lucille Femine
The first video presented was made and researched by author Janet Ossebaard. This is the first in a series she put together. She urges, “Please do your own research and double check everything I present to you”. I’m sure she says that because much of it is quite alarming.
Towards the end, she gives convincing speculation that JFK, Jr is still alive and that his death, his wife’s and her sister’s were staged.
Also, she shows fascinating “misspellings” of Trump’s tweets as hidden messages which reveal he is fully aware of the cabal. They may be pure conjecture but worth considering. It helped me feel more confident that Trump knows the scene.
As gruesome as COVID-19 is, this data is the background story, you might say, detailing the brand of people who would create such a disaster. Calling them “people”, though, is a misnomer and trying to describe them can leave you seething and wordless as images come of historic monsters, little more than animals. Or are they animals parading as humans?
Most of us have seen and read much data on the Rockefellers, the Clintons, the Rothchilds, the Jesuits, etc. But never have I seen such disturbing details about their whole world, their very purpose in life – pedophilia. The list of this group is much larger than I knew before, including startling ones among Hollywood stars. Some were murdered for speaking out or turned into drug addicts and alcoholics after being sexually abused.
Here’s a partial list of offenders, a screenshot from the video. I was dismayed to see Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks there. Tragically, this pedophilic ring is their ticket to fame and fortune in many cases.
Fall Cabal Parts 1 – 10 The World Is About To Change
It’s very clear now why Hollywood is little more than a bastion of the vilest crimes against our children, our future. As Mel Gibson, now blacklisted, stated, “Hollywood is an institutionalized pedophile ring, a den of parasites who feast on the blood of children”.
One may wonder at their motives, played out with not a hint of remorse. Justification of their crimes is all they know and becomes their mode of operation. There’s no room for admitting to wrong-doing because then, they might see who they really are and they would cave. It would be like being struck with two tons of rock.
Think of times you felt so guilty about doing or not doing something, like forgetting a birthday, getting a bit impatient with a child or co-worker or buying something you can’t afford. It can gnaw on you for hours or days as you seek to make retribution. You are social. You want to be and do good for others.
Not so for these life-destroyers. They don’t dare. And they sure can LOOK good. In fact, that’s their protective layer as they work to fool you into believing in their good intentions. It can be scary as hell at times as you fall into their deceitful web and their PR. They actually have no clue how evil they are, so good they are at hiding it from themselves.
There’s several “child protective” organizations you will see on this video that exist to have a constant supply of children to molest. For example, Laura Gaylor, a convicted child trafficker, was connected to Amber Alert, the group dedicated to rescue children! She had smuggled 33 children out of Haiti after the earthquake under the guise of getting them adopted. But they were not orphans and were later reunited with their parents.
Watch this video from TEDx where a medical student gives her view of pedophilia. “No one chooses to be a pedophile”. She goes on to say, “No one is responsible for their feelings. We do not choose them”. Well then, who the hell chooses them?? This is the grossest expression of irresponsibility I’ve ever heard. Where has our education gone to? I wouldn’t dignify it, actually, with the term “education”.
TEDx says “Pedophilia is an Unchangeable Orientation”
Moral and ethical behavior has become unfashionable. Yet, without them, this planet is doomed. Not only dedicated pedophiles, corrupt politicians and globalists are causing this but our children are taught a whole new set of values guaranteed to ruin their lives as they follow these rules. However, despite this remolding of character, most of us know innately what is right and good. If we violate those precepts, regardless of how brainwashed we are, we become weak and ineffective. Very easy to make and control slaves this way.
Whether we call ethical standards religion or not, they are still the mainstay of life and true happiness.
There’s much more that the main video here and the rest go into which I look forward to watching but the pedophilia struck me as a total destruction of our future. However, she has solutions at the end to all that is attacking us, stemming from that small percentage who aim to keep us down.
Regardless of Trump’s faults, he is the only president we’ve had who can lead us out. Surely, he needs our help. Otherwise, it seems like a hopeless David and Goliath battle.

Dozens of plutocrat-funded “ Italian ” organizations are calling for the evacuation of illegal immigrants from “ hotspots , ” and for them to be released from detention to be spread out across the country .
Meanwhile , ordinary Italians in the north and center @ @ @ @ @ @ @ without special permission – who speaks for them ?
France and Germany , two of the European Union ’ s largest manufacturers , have heavily restricted the export of medical supplies .
The economic liberalization that EU countries must endure to join the bloc has destroyed Italian economic independence due to Germany and France swamping neighboring markets with exports .

thelibertybeacon--2020-04-01--The Common Roots Of Climate Change And COVID-19 Hysteria – Creating Chaos 2.0

The culprit ?
A world-class Technocrat in Britain : Dr. Neil Ferguson , PhD is a professor at Imperial College in London that bills itself as a “ global university ” .
It is thoroughly steeped in Sustainable Development and more dedicated to social causes than academic achievement .
In fact , Imperial is very well-known for its alarmist research reports on climate change , carbon reduction , environmental degradation , loss of biodiversity , etc .
In short and when seen through the lens of Sustainable Development , aka Technocracy , the whole world has just been punked and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
The problem with the global warming meme is that it is a tired , worn-out racehorse that much of the world simply ignores .
Global warming alarmists have tried every trick in the book to stampede the world into Sustainable Development .
They have knowingly falsified climate data , flooded the world with inaccurate academic reports , held world meetings like the Paris Accord in France , threatened and bullied their critics , created a global youth movement to shame leaders into action , etc .
All of these strategies have failed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Sustainable Development , aka Technocracy , and show little promise of success in the future .
What the Sustainable Development crowd needed was to put their non-performing racehorse “ Global Warming ” out to pasture and find a brand new horse that could finally run and win the race to what the UN calls “ deep transformation ” of the entire global economic system .
The new horse is named “ COVID-19 ” .
Different horse , same jockey , same race , same finish line .
The President of Imperial College is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ college to be part of a “ new paradigm of the global university ” that promises to be “ a contributor to a better future.
” Gast also notes the three general areas of focus of Imperial are “ epidemics , shortages of natural resources and environmental crises.
” In other words , the environment , natural resources and epidemics are seen as intertwined and inseparable .
The “ global university ” is indeed a new paradigm , and one that radically transforms the traditional role of education into one of social activism @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on society and not according to scholastic achievement .
Furthermore , the global university is invariably framed as a champion of the United Nations ’ Sustainable Development , and Imperial is no exception .
The head of Sustainability at Imperial is Professor Paul Lickiss .
His web page states , “ Sustainability should run through the whole of College thinking and activity at all levels and across all campuses.
” A casual examination of the various departments at Imperial confirm this statement : sustainability , environmentalism and climate change themes are seen everywhere @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Wuhan was recognized as a potential pandemic , academic researcher Dr. Neil Ferguson went to work developing a computer model to track and forecast its rapid spread .
At the top of his field , Ferguson is a professor of mathematical biology at Imperial College in London , and has had extensive experience in tracking other infectious diseases such as the swine flu in 2009 , Dengue in 2015 and Zika in 2016 .
Ferguson is a British epidemiologist and a professor of mathematical biology at Imperial College .
According to the World @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a Master of Arts degree in physics , he received a Doctor of Philosophy degree in theoretical physics .
He has no medical or related degree , but rather chose to apply his education to use his mathematical skills by modeling the spread of infectious diseases .
In other words , Ferguson is a data-driven Technocrat with direct access to policy-makers around the world .
According to the New York Times , Early on in the COVID-19 outbreak , Ferguson began to advise officials in Britain and the United States on the spread @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to fight it .
Thus , he served as both researcher and policy advisor at the same time .
Ferguson ’ s conclusion that COVID-19 would kill as many as 500,000 people in Britain and over 1.1 million in the United States , set off a tidal wave of panic that has not subsided .
His policy recommendations were just as shocking , namely , that societies must be entirely locked down in order to survive .
On March 16 , 2020 , Ferguson finally released his formal report , Impact of non-pharmaceutical @ @ @ @ @ @ @ mortality and healthcare demand .
Here are some quick observations from reading this report : • Well before publishing , he advised policy makers .
His modeling study “ informed policymaking in the UK and other countries in recent weeks ” • Comparable to 1918 Spanish flu : “ it represents the most serious seen in a respiratory virus since the 1918 H1N1 influenza pandemic ” • Applied this and previous model to UK and US : “ we apply a previously published microsimulation model to two countries : the UK ( Great @ @ @ @ @ @ @ • There are two possible strategies : Mitigation and Suppression • Mitigation : This proposed social distancing , home-isolation of sick , home-quarantine of relatives , “ We find that that optimal mitigation policies ( combining home isolation of suspect cases , home quarantine of those living in the same household as suspect cases , and social distancing of the elderly and others at most risk of severe disease ) might reduce peak healthcare demand by 2/3 and deaths by half ” • In spite of reducing deaths by half , “ the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in hundreds of thousands of deaths and health systems ( most notably intensive care units ) being overwhelmed many times over ” • Thus , he argues that Suppression is the only option • Suppression : Additional measures include social distancing of the entire population , home isolation of infected , household quarantine of family members , school and university closures • Long term : Suppression “ will need to be maintained until a vaccine becomes available ( potentially 18 months or more ) ” .
These doomsday predictions , based entirely on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ climate studies , were believable enough that national leaders accepted them at face value .
Worse , they also accepted Ferguson ’ s policy recommendations , which were then implemented with precise detail .
Here are some of the more prescient excerpts from the report ’ s conclusion section : Our results demonstrate that it will be necessary to layer multiple interventions , regardless of whether suppression or mitigation is the overarching policy goal .
However , suppression will require the layering of more intensive and socially disruptive measures than mitigation .
The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ relative feasibility of their implementation and their likely effectiveness in different social contexts .
( p. 14 ) Overall , our results suggest that population-wide social distancing applied to the population as a whole would have the largest impact ; and in combination with other interventions – notably home isolation of cases and school and university closure – has the potential to suppress transmission below the threshold of R=1 required to rapidly reduce case incidence .
A minimum policy for effective suppression is therefore population-wide social distancing combined with home isolation of cases @ @ @ @ @ @ @ p. 14 ) To avoid a rebound in transmission , these policies will need to be maintained until large stocks of vaccine are available to immunise the population – which could be 18 months or more .
( p.15 ) Technology – such as mobile phone apps that track an individual ’ s interactions with other people in society – might allow such a policy to be more effective and scalable if the associated privacy concerns can be overcome .
( p. 15 ) Perhaps our most significant conclusion is that mitigation is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ capacity limits of the UK and US healthcare systems being exceeded many times over .
In the most effective mitigation strategy examined , which leads to a single , relatively short epidemic ( case isolation , household quarantine and social distancing of the elderly ) , the surge limits for both general ward and ICU beds would be exceeded by at least 8-fold under the more optimistic scenario for critical care requirements that we examined .
In addition , even if all patients were able to be treated , we predict there would @ @ @ @ @ @ @ deaths in GB , and 1.1-1.2 million in the US .
( p. 16 ) The mind of a Technocrat can be clearly seen in this whole package .
All of these draconian measures must be maintained until a vaccine is created , which is at least 18 months .
The use of mobile phone apps to track the world ’ s population could be effective if citizens could be railroaded into it .
What is not seen is one word about the destruction of the global economic system that would certainly result @ @ @ @ @ @ @ alarmists who articulated the Green New Deal policies also call for radical measures to transform society and they are likewise silent about the inevitable destructive effects such policies would have on the global economy .
Why do Technocrats not discuss the destruction of Capitalism and Free Enterprise ?
Because that is their exact goal .
When Christiana Figueres was head of Climate Change at the United Nations in 2015 .
She clearly stated : “ This is probably the most difficult task we have ever given ourselves , which is to intentionally transform @ @ @ @ @ @ @ first time in human history .
This is the first time in the history of mankind that we are setting ourselves the task of intentionally , within a defined period of time to change the economic model that has been reigning for at least 150 years , since the industrial revolution .
That will not happen overnight and it will not happen at a single conference on climate change , be it COP 15 , 21 , 40 – you choose the number .
It just does not occur like that .
It @ @ @ @ @ @ @ depth of the transformation.
” ( emphasis added ) People argue with me that this can not be the goal , that it ’ s just too big to comprehend .
My reply is that if a killer points a gun at you and angrily says he is going to kill you , will you take defensive action or just stand there and let him shoot you ?
Hardly .
Direct threats must be taken seriously , especially when the perpetrator has the means to carry out the threat .
In the heat @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 1930s , Technocrats were certain that Capitalism and Free Enterprise would be dead within months .
Their economic replacement system of Technocracy would not and could not work unless the existing economic system was completely failed .
Unfortunately for them , Capitalism recovered and Technocracy withered .
Today , however , the United Nations is clearly articulating the same premise , and it is at the ready with its resource-based economic system called Sustainable Development , aka Technocracy .
The most clearly articulated example of Sustainable Development is the Green New Deal as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ( D-NY ) and Sen. Ed Markey ( D-MA ) .
Thanks to Neil Ferguson and Imperial College , the entire world has panicked over COVID-19 and worse , leaders have implemented all of their policy recommendations lock , stock and barrel .
Meanwhile , the entire global media obediently follows behind , fanning the flames of fear into a raging forest fire .
As a result , the U.S. economy is in a tailspin , the financial system is on the verge of total collapse , stocks have entered a full-blown bear @ @ @ @ @ @ @ trading at negative interest rates and unemployment claims soared to 3.3 million last week as businesses shut their doors .
Employment experts forecast that over 40 million Americans will have lost their jobs by the end of April .
In short , the economy has been dealt a mortal wound .
Even if all restrictions were immediately lifted globally , it is highly doubtful that the economy could recover to its former state .
Moreover , that doubt is increased for every week that restricted activity continues .
In the United States , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the highly-esteemed Dr. Anthony Fauci who also has close ties to the World Health Organization .
According to National Review , Fauci hypothesized in late February in the New England Journal of Medicine that the fatality rate of COVID-19 may be “ considerably less than 1 % because many people who are infected experience either no symptoms or very mild symptoms and therefore do not report.
” And yet , the media routinely states that the mortality rate is 3-4 % or higher .
Dr. Fauci himself continues to claim that COVID-19 is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ even though his own estimates of 100K to 200K deaths compares to the CDC ’ s reported deaths during the 2019-2020 flu season of between 24,000 and 62,000 .
If Fauci ’ s 10X figure is accurate , then he should be estimating between 240,000 and 620,000 deaths , which he is not .
His numbers simply do not add up !
We are all rightfully saddened for anyone who loses their life to COVID-19 , but we are going to be a lot more sorry for having trusted a Technocrat to tell @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
The destruction of the economy will result in many more deaths and hardships than COVID-19 could ever imagine .
There is much more to be written on this topic .
The main point of this article is to establish the “ panic of 2020 ” as a Technocrat operation so that Sustainable Development , aka Technocracy , can be quickly moved forward if not completely ushered in .
Furthermore , it is a replacement strategy for global warming to induce panic .
As stated above , different horse , same jockey , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ For full documentation and further explanations on Technocracy , please see my books Technocracy Rising : The Trojan Horse of Global Transformation and Technocracy : The Hard Road to World Order .
Both are also available at Technocracy.news .

It is thoroughly steeped in Sustainable Development and more dedicated to social causes than academic achievement. In fact, Imperial is very well-known for its alarmist research reports on climate change, carbon reduction, environmental degradation, loss of biodiversity, etc.

The new horse is named “COVID-19”. Different horse, same jockey, same race, same finish line.
Imperial College
The President of Imperial College is Professor Alice Gast. She considers the college to be part of a “new paradigm of the global university” that promises to be “a contributor to a better future.” Gast also notes the three general areas of focus of Imperial are “epidemics, shortages of natural resources and environmental crises.” In other words, the environment, natural resources and epidemics are seen as intertwined and inseparable.
The “global university” is indeed a new paradigm, and one that radically transforms the traditional role of education into one of social activism. Success is measured by social impact on society and not according to scholastic achievement.
Furthermore, the global university is invariably framed as a champion of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development, and Imperial is no exception. The head of Sustainability at Imperial is Professor Paul Lickiss. His web page states, “Sustainability should run through the whole of College thinking and activity at all levels and across all campuses.” A casual examination of the various departments at Imperial confirm this statement: sustainability, environmentalism and climate change themes are seen everywhere.
(ER: a recent visit to an historical, well-appointed university in Paris revealed the same thing – saturation around campus of environmentalism and sustainability themes through slick posters and wall displays, all without ever revealing the globalist origins of these ideologies. It appeared as seamless indoctrination.)
The Work Begins
Once the release of COVID-19 in Wuhan was recognized as a potential pandemic, academic researcher Dr. Neil Ferguson went to work developing a computer model to track and forecast its rapid spread. At the top of his field, Ferguson is a professor of mathematical biology at Imperial College in London, and has had extensive experience in tracking other infectious diseases such as the swine flu in 2009, Dengue in 2015 and Zika in 2016.
Ferguson is a British epidemiologist and a professor of mathematical biology at Imperial College. According to the World Health Organization (WHO),
Epidemiology is the study of the distribution and determinants of health-related states or events (including disease), and the application of this study to the control of diseases and other health problems. Various methods can be used to carry out epidemiological investigations: surveillance and descriptive studies can be used to study distribution; analytical studies are used to study determinants.
With a Master of Arts degree in physics, he received a Doctor of Philosophy degree in theoretical physics. He has no medical or related degree, but rather chose to apply his education to use his mathematical skills by modeling the spread of infectious diseases.
In other words, Ferguson is a data-driven Technocrat with direct access to policy-makers around the world. According to the New York Times,
Imperial College has advised the government on its response to previous epidemics, including SARS, avian flu and swine flu. With ties to the World Health Organization and a team of 50 scientists, led by a prominent epidemiologist, Neil Ferguson, Imperial is treated as a sort of gold standard, its mathematical models feeding directly into government policies.
Ferguson’s COVID-19 Study
Early on in the COVID-19 outbreak, Ferguson began to advise officials in Britain and the United States on the spread of the infection as well as ways to fight it. Thus, he served as both researcher and policy advisor at the same time.
Ferguson’s conclusion that COVID-19 would kill as many as 500,000 people in Britain and over 1.1 million in the United States, set off a tidal wave of panic that has not subsided. His policy recommendations were just as shocking, namely, that societies must be entirely locked down in order to survive.
On March 16, 2020, Ferguson finally released his formal report, Impact of non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) to reduce COVID19 mortality and healthcare demand.
Here are some quick observations from reading this report:
Well before publishing, he advised policy makers. His modeling study “informed policymaking in the UK and other countries in recent weeks”
His modeling study “informed policymaking in the UK and other countries in recent weeks” Comparable to 1918 Spanish flu : “it represents the most serious seen in a respiratory virus since the 1918 H1N1 influenza pandemic”
: “it represents the most serious seen in a respiratory virus since the 1918 H1N1 influenza pandemic” Applied this and previous model to UK and US: “we apply a previously published microsimulation model to two countries: the UK (Great Britain specifically) and the US”
There are two possible strategies: Mitigation and Suppression
Mitigation : This proposed social distancing, home-isolation of sick, home-quarantine of relatives, “We find that that optimal mitigation policies (combining home isolation of suspect cases, home quarantine of those living in the same household as suspect cases, and social distancing of the elderly and others at most risk of severe disease) might reduce peak healthcare demand by 2/3 and deaths by half”
: This proposed social distancing, home-isolation of sick, home-quarantine of relatives, “We find that that optimal mitigation policies (combining home isolation of suspect cases, home quarantine of those living in the same household as suspect cases, and social distancing of the elderly and others at most risk of severe disease) might reduce peak healthcare demand by 2/3 and deaths by half” In spite of reducing deaths by half, “the resulting mitigated epidemic would still likely result in hundreds of thousands of deaths and health systems (most notably intensive care units) being overwhelmed many times over”
and health systems (most notably intensive care units) being overwhelmed many times over” Thus, he argues that Suppression is the only option
Suppression : Additional measures include social distancing of the entire population , home isolation of infected, household quarantine of family members, school and university closures
: Additional measures include , home isolation of infected, household quarantine of family members, school and university closures Long term: Suppression “will need to be maintained until a vaccine becomes available (potentially 18 months or more)”.
These doomsday predictions, based entirely on computer simulations similar to those used in climate studies, were believable enough that national leaders accepted them at face value. Worse, they also accepted Ferguson’s policy recommendations, which were then implemented with precise detail. Here are some of the more prescient excerpts from the report’s conclusion section:
Our results demonstrate that it will be necessary to layer multiple interventions, regardless of whether suppression or mitigation is the overarching policy goal. However, suppression will require the layering of more intensive and socially disruptive measures than mitigation. The choice of interventions ultimately depends on the relative feasibility of their implementation and their likely effectiveness in different social contexts. (p. 14) Overall, our results suggest that population-wide social distancing applied to the population as a whole would have the largest impact; and in combination with other interventions – notably home isolation of cases and school and university closure – has the potential to suppress transmission below the threshold of R=1 required to rapidly reduce case incidence. A minimum policy for effective suppression is therefore population-wide social distancing combined with home isolation of cases and school and university closure. (p. 14) To avoid a rebound in transmission, these policies will need to be maintained until large stocks of vaccine are available to immunise the population – which could be 18 months or more. (p.15) Technology – such as mobile phone apps that track an individual’s interactions with other people in society – might allow such a policy to be more effective and scalable if the associated privacy concerns can be overcome. (p. 15) Perhaps our most significant conclusion is that mitigation is unlikely to be feasible without emergency surge capacity limits of the UK and US healthcare systems being exceeded many times over. In the most effective mitigation strategy examined, which leads to a single, relatively short epidemic (case isolation, household quarantine and social distancing of the elderly), the surge limits for both general ward and ICU beds would be exceeded by at least 8-fold under the more optimistic scenario for critical care requirements that we examined. In addition, even if all patients were able to be treated, we predict there would still be in the order of 250,000 deaths in GB, and 1.1-1.2 million in the US. (p. 16)
The mind of a Technocrat can be clearly seen in this whole package. All of these draconian measures must be maintained until a vaccine is created, which is at least 18 months. The use of mobile phone apps to track the world’s population could be effective if citizens could be railroaded into it. What is not seen is one word about the destruction of the global economic system that would certainly result from these draconian policy measures.
Climate alarmists who articulated the Green New Deal policies also call for radical measures to transform society and they are likewise silent about the inevitable destructive effects such policies would have on the global economy.
Destroy Capitalism & Free Enterprise
Why do Technocrats not discuss the destruction of Capitalism and Free Enterprise? Because that is their exact goal. When Christiana Figueres was head of Climate Change at the United Nations in 2015. She clearly stated:
“This is probably the most difficult task we have ever given ourselves, which is to intentionally transform the economic development model, for the first time in human history. This is the first time in the history of mankind that we are setting ourselves the task of intentionally, within a defined period of time to change the economic model that has been reigning for at least 150 years, since the industrial revolution. That will not happen overnight and it will not happen at a single conference on climate change, be it COP 15, 21, 40 – you choose the number. It just does not occur like that. It is a process, because of the depth of the transformation.” (emphasis added)
People argue with me that this cannot be the goal, that it’s just too big to comprehend. My reply is that if a killer points a gun at you and angrily says he is going to kill you, will you take defensive action or just stand there and let him shoot you? Hardly. Direct threats must be taken seriously, especially when the perpetrator has the means to carry out the threat.
In the heat of the Great Depression during the early 1930s, Technocrats were certain that Capitalism and Free Enterprise would be dead within months. Their economic replacement system of Technocracy would not and could not work unless the existing economic system was completely failed. Unfortunately for them, Capitalism recovered and Technocracy withered.
Today, however, the United Nations is clearly articulating the same premise, and it is at the ready with its resource-based economic system called Sustainable Development, aka Technocracy. The most clearly articulated example of Sustainable Development is the Green New Deal as recently unveiled by U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and Sen. Ed Markey (D-MA).
The World Panics
Thanks to Neil Ferguson and Imperial College, the entire world has panicked over COVID-19 and worse, leaders have implemented all of their policy recommendations lock, stock and barrel. Meanwhile, the entire global media obediently follows behind, fanning the flames of fear into a raging forest fire.
As a result, the U.S. economy is in a tailspin, the financial system is on the verge of total collapse, stocks have entered a full-blown bear market, some U.S. Treasury notes are trading at negative interest rates and unemployment claims soared to 3.3 million last week as businesses shut their doors. Employment experts forecast that over 40 million Americans will have lost their jobs by the end of April.
In short, the economy has been dealt a mortal wound. Even if all restrictions were immediately lifted globally, it is highly doubtful that the economy could recover to its former state. Moreover, that doubt is increased for every week that restricted activity continues.
In the United States, the primary agent of panic has been the highly-esteemed Dr. Anthony Fauci who also has close ties to the World Health Organization. According to National Review, Fauci hypothesized in late February in the New England Journal of Medicine that the fatality rate of COVID-19 may be “considerably less than 1% because many people who are infected experience either no symptoms or very mild symptoms and therefore do not report.” And yet, the media routinely states that the mortality rate is 3-4% or higher. Dr. Fauci himself continues to claim that COVID-19 is 10x as bad as the flu, even though his own estimates of 100K to 200K deaths compares to the CDC’s reported deaths during the 2019-2020 flu season of between 24,000 and 62,000. If Fauci’s 10X figure is accurate, then he should be estimating between 240,000 and 620,000 deaths, which he is not. His numbers simply do not add up!
Conclusion
We are all rightfully saddened for anyone who loses their life to COVID-19, but we are going to be a lot more sorry for having trusted a Technocrat to tell us how to deal with the pandemic. The destruction of the economy will result in many more deaths and hardships than COVID-19 could ever imagine.
There is much more to be written on this topic. The main point of this article is to establish the “panic of 2020” as a Technocrat operation so that Sustainable Development, aka Technocracy, can be quickly moved forward if not completely ushered in. Furthermore, it is a replacement strategy for global warming to induce panic.
As stated above, different horse, same jockey, same race, same finish line.

China Puts County On Lockdown After New Corona Cluster Emerges
China is no longer fixed.
Having lied for the past two months about the severity of the coronavirus pandemic, eager to convey the message that the crisis “under control” just so people return to work, full of hope and enthusiasm, rejoicing at the surge in China’s just as fabricated PMI numbers, and willing to work their asses off (with Beijing generously willing to risk everyone’s lives as the alternative is a complete collapse in China’s economy) earlier today the US finally cracked down on the relentless barrage of Chinese lies, when US intelligence accused China of deliberately lying about its coronavirus figures.
Then, in a miraculous coincidence, just moments later Reuters reported that a county in central China’s Henan province announced on Wednesday it had “virtually banned all outbound movement of people, following several cases of coronavirus infection in the area.”
(ZeroHedge) According to a post on its social media account, Jia county – which has a population of about 600,000 – said that no one can travel out of Jia county without proper authorization. Additionally, residents are not allowed to leave their homes for work unless they have clearance to do so.
According to local media reports, on March 29, Henan Province broke its 30-day streak of reporting no new coronavirus cases, saying one person tested positive after a trip to Pingdingshan, where Jia County is located. Specifically, on Saturday, Henan province reported one confirmed case in Luohe city; local authorities said the infected person had been in contact with two doctors based in Jia county who later tested positive for the virus even though they had showed no symptoms.

And so the virus is back to China, despite the best intentions of the Chinese World Health Organization and its Beijing sponsors to make it seem that China had managed to defeat the virus.
Needless to say this is a problem, because the risk of stop-start restrictions on people’s movements mean that any calls for a V-shaped rebound in global economies and stocks can now be ignored as China will soon be forced to go through the entire shut down exercise all over again.
Indeed, as Bloomberg’s Simon Flint wrote presciently overnight, “as China’s economy restarts, there is every risk infection rates to tick higher once again, requiring renewed control measures and potentially the beginning of a stop-start pattern of lockdowns followed by eased restrictions.”

In other words, back to square one we go, only maybe this time China will tell the truth.
