A Chinese government-backed property giant has secretly raided in bulk Australia’s supplies of masks, hand sanitiser, antibacterial wipes and essential medical supplies and shipped them back to China.

The Greenland Group, which manages high-end real estate projects in Sydney and Melbourne, proactively drained Australian supplies of anti-coronavirus equipment, The Sydney Morning Herald reported.

Three million surgical masks, 500,000 pairs of gloves and bulk supplies of sanitiser and wipes were bought up in Australia and other countries where Greenland operates.

While the bulk purchases and shipping were perfectly legitimate, the goods shipped in bulk to China include the very items that have been in short supply for Australian citizens as well as health professionals.

They were accumulated at Greenland’s Sydney headquarters and sent to China over weeks in January and February.

Would you stake your life on Chinese-made masks, gloves, and sanitizer?

Anthrax the CCP centers from Space.

It’s the only way to be sure.

Where do you think we get nearly all of our medical supplies?

We will soon be able to supply them with American made masks.

I don’t blame the Chinese in this. They saw their chances and took them.

Just wondering why China would need more supplies if there are no new cases, etc... and everything is as rosy as they claim?

A large PHarma company from Australia makes the malaria drug used in treatment of the virus. A friend has been buying from there for years to treat her arthritis.

“Would you stake your life on Chinese-made masks, gloves, and sanitizer?”

Do we have a choice?

This was at a time when the CCP was lying about the virus being transmitted from person to person, lying about the severity of it and not letting CDC or any other foreign epidemiologists in to study it.

I bought a small personal supply of N95s 14 years ago. There was a packing slip in the box that gave me the date. I was very glad to find they were MADE IN USA!

Who did these supplies belong to? Did the supplies ( not the building) belong to Australia or to China?

That was my point. When people on this site vow to never buy Chinese again...others say “good luck with that”.
