Beware of those who would fan the fires of division - especially outside of due process. They are the true culprits. And the flu and the prior version of the common cold must be found guilty, because the deaths currently occurring are the same deaths doctors expected due to those pathogens, when no one took notice. We only do now because a large number of us are in a media-driven panic. If anyone should be investigated it is they.

You're the only one suggesting those things.

@WilyRickWiles. False.

Geneticists who have analyzed the gene sequence of SARS COV2, which causes COVID-19, are confident of three facts:
1.There are no markers which are unavoidable when genes are spliced (engineered).
2. The forensic path clearly shows a very old gene sequence consistent with a path through bats found in China, but no where near Wuhan.
3. A much more recent forensic path in the gene sequence of the virus shows that it went through the pangolin before jumping to humans.

The R-nought value of SARS COV2 is 5.7 in 2.5 days, which tells us that the entire globe was exposed to the virus long before the West was even aware of its existence in China.* And that means social distancing and masks were an attempt to prevent exposure that had already happened. [healthline.com]

Furthermore, 99% of those the virus kills are smokers and people of any age with serious pre-existing conditions. Its possible that the remaining 1% also have pre-existing conditions that are undiagnosed. This is why populations with high concentrations of smokers and illnesses, like Italy, have higher mortality rates than countries like Sweden. The numbers are still consistent partly because of the unusually long latency of SARS COV2. And partly because other things are still getting them.
See "Multiple Conditions Increase Risk." [informationisbeautiful.net]

So with a case base that could be 2000 times greater than reported right now, that makes the virus 2000 times less dangerous - far less than the common flu. SARS-COV2 is less dangerous to healthy people than driving. Not a very effective biological weapon.

Doctors think no disease should be acceptable. And as medical doctors, they may be ignorant of the consequences of political decisions. Does COVID-19 kill people? Yes. The same people who doctors like Dr Fauci should expect to be taken out by the flu and pneumonia, etc, because of other infirmities, every year. 2,046,549 people died in the US last year of all causes except suicide. 73,000 are now listed here as dying of COVID-19 in the US, almost all of whom could have been listed as dying of their pre-existing conditions.

Are the Chinese making the most of all of this? Of course they are. They are pretty good at strategic planning, but it doesn't mean they orchestrated this, sorry.

Creating a vaccine will be futile if it mutates, and this source asserts it has already happened. Do we want to destroy our nation waiting to find a vaccine that is effective?

So how did this happen? The media in the US was about to go under for the last time as among the least trusted groups in history (below Congress) and desperately needed a sensational story. When Taiwan announced the virus, the media did their best to make it as bad as they possibly could, and the American public - particularly the dumber half of the IQ curve, was ready to play victim.

There is no threat. And China could not have done what our own media did. And the New York Times proudly reports that 87% of the media are Democrat.

@TimTuolomne 100 percent correct Tim.

@TimTuolomne, @WilyRickWiles you are incorrect! rick.

One man's "citizen's arrest" is another man's lynching.

@WilyRickWiles Very true and the difference lies in the intent of the perpetrators. Short of being mind readers we can’t know that. Perhaps an investigation will make their true intentions clear. Till then, jumping to conclusions is irresponsible, reckless and dangerous.

@Clammypollack You don't think there weren't good intentioned lynchers? The time to reserve judgment was before those two set out with their modern torches.

@WilyRickWiles your wrong rick.

Until minorities stop voting for Democrats in large enough numbers to swing elections

This can't be overstated and is my new focus. The fall out for this attempted Communist Revolution will dwarf the pending backlash for the DOJ/Obama fraud perpetrated on President Trump and the American voter. If life isn't universally returned to normal by June 1, and schools fully functional by August (with an early start Summer School orientation to finish this lost semester) then this entire fraud must be exposed and all must be held accountable for their actions. The repercussions could reach as high as the Presidency or White House staff for the loss of our Constitutional rights.

@Facci, After three years of Democrats searching for smoke to prove fire about the President, I am convinced he is not behind the deception. I was not convinced of his integrity before the Democrats did that. And I can see that if he is fairly alone in his understanding of the problem, and the American public is so panicked that they would swing over to believe the Democrats, he would have no choice but to play it very carefully, until he could persuade everyone differently.

@TimTuolomne I agree with you. But the buck stops with him, and our liberation must lie with him, or he needs to be removed. It still happened under his watch, and I will not accept the loss of our Constitution from anyone. This is not a partisan issue. We must restore our way of life in full. And it must start tomorrow if not yesterday.

@Facci, if you read the Constitution, the President has almost no actual power over the internal US. The President has power over foreign policy, to make war and over immigration. Your beef is with Congress.

The masks are being pushed after the initial surg. They are conditioning the herd for the event of a vaccine for the corn hole virus. Then will come the push to criminalize those that will not be vaccinated by Dr. Death. Gates. I don't want Indian blankets, given to my Greatgrandfathers people, no showers/ovens for me, used on my Grandmother's family. No chip for me. I don't need a number from the beast.

@TimTuolomne they had the presidency, until Pres. Trump took it away. They had the Congress. They were almost in control of the Judical system. They didn't yet have the supreme court.

It's been a attempt to alter the mind set the middle class. Stay at home. Stay safe. Take it easy. Let the gov send you checks. Wear your mask. Let's help you lose your immunities by keeping you isolated. Now let's see what the next round of weaponized virus does to cull the numbers.

@Phil777 I think there is a 5G component as well. 5G frequencies affect the absorption of oxygen into cells. Orientals appear genetically sensitive to EMF frequencies. I think Covid-19(84) was an experiment in managing the tendency for some people to fall down dead when hit by 5G. (As if I wasn't cRaZy enough already) Still diggin', though...
