One worry with this thing is that it could have a 2nd wave like the 1918 flu did.

If this is a case of ending the quarantine too soon that would be better.

Really - isn’t a a web site that shows all the flights in the air. I’m not saying you are wrong but initially I would think no way. Let me see if I can find that site I sure hope you are wrong.

President Trump spent an hour talking to Xi last night. Whatever that might be worth.

Maybe that’s why Xi shut down the theaters, Trump told him to:)

Data from Beijing is worth as much as used toilet paper.

Its tough to fathom but Chinese people can’t. The technology the crazy commies using against their own population its beyond anything imagined in 1984. The things I’ve heard recently from folks from there or have visited often, its incredible, scary, facial recognition, emotional reading from body language, who is next to who, everything is monitored and feed through AI algoritms -— its gross

It’s just the same Covid stuff. China is finding out it hasn’t ended yet.

I don’t think Xi cares what Trump thinks.

I want to say the flight shown (in reference, recently) was coming from Shanghai.

I will try to track down the post.

Thanks.

Because they will end up like the doctor who was warning people when this all started. Just disappear.

I read somewhere abut reports of the Hanatavirus going around China now. Either Stop eating random snakes, rats, bats, spiders, etc. from your nasty wet markets and fix the sanitation issues or quit saying you are a 1st world county.

I like the way Crowder included him in his Kung FLu Fighting video

[No official explanation for the sudden reversal was provided. Industry insiders instantly began speculating that the government was worried about a potential second wave of coronavirus infections. ]


What second wave? The first wave is undoubtedly still percolating through the system. Not counting new infections works until the new infections start overwhelming the medical system again.

Boris Johnson is technically right, in the sense that herd immunity will eventually render this virus toothless. The problem is the body count before herd immunity is achieved.

Xi Jinpin is emperor in all but name. However, he is pretty sensitive to this kind of stuff because plagues in China have traditionally coincided with massive popular revolts and elite mutinies.

I saw a pic of that bat soup, what the heck is anyone thinking to eat that?

I can see eating bats, in the sense of properly butchering and properly cooking the meat. It’s not for me but that bat soup is something else.

I’ve seen a few of the hidden camera vids of the wet markets. No concept of any sanitation, quality control, etc. Just lop of the head of a snake, chop it up, then a bat, etc. all day long.
