Nearly half of passengers from China to Milan have COVID: Italian officials

Nearly half of the passengers on two recent flights from China to Milan tested positive for COVID-19, Italian health officials said on Wednesday.

About 38 percent of passengers on one flight into Milan’s Malpensa Airport tested positive for COVID-19, as did about 52 percent of those on a second flight, according to local officials in Italy’s Lombardy region.

Italy will begin testing all new arrivals from China and sequencing the tests for new variants amid China’s surge in COVID-19 cases, Italy’s health minister said on Wednesday.

“The measure is essential to ensure surveillance and detection of possible variants of the virus in order to protect the Italian population,” Italian Health Minister Orazio Schillaci said.

This entire COVID thing has disgusted me and disillusioned me completely with the government, medical industry, and Americans in general.

We have turned into a country of pussies.

LOL

Diseases have been spreading like this since: forever.

Syphilis came back with Columbus.

Small Pox went to the Americas with the Europeans.

Only now folks are figuring it out.

You had an election year in 2020 so Covid was made into a big deal starting end of 2019, unlike Zika, West Nile, Bird Flu... It was an issue ruthlessly exploited by the Democrats that used this in opposition politics, to self promote...

Buffoons like Fauci see this as an opportunity to grow government (scope and budget), propel themselves into a celebrity status, etc.

The MSM had an endless story which got people to listen to them again.

Experts, media pundits, international and academic institutions had their 15 Warhol minutes using this issue, examples: John Hopkins or the WHO.

Of course there were huge economic interests at stake here as well. Pharma made out on this like never before, so did hospitals early on... Some made so much through mandates and government spending that they are literally trying to downplay their bottom from 2020, 2021 as this might cause public criticism.

Quickly Covid became an avalanche.

A giant poop avalanche, but an avalanche nonetheless.

It became stupid fast, but any argument to the contrary got one labeled: reckless, irresponsible, anti-vaxer, science denier. People think using these ignorant labels. Once ascribed a label folks don’t need to listen or consider the idea anymore. There are of course labels on both sides and many other issues but thinking in these terms is very ignorant and popular.

I am ***STILL*** waiting for the guy claiming to be a doctor on the FR to give me a sound argument for why going to Destin to enjoy the beach during Covid was a bad idea. Simple question. I asked him if it was the salt water, UV light, high temperatures, fresh non-recirculated air, sand, or fact that people naturally spread out which I need to be concerned about? Never got an answer, but the MSM was appalled that people like I didn’t play along and self flagellate in some act of solidarity with all the other idiots out there.

This is the “Made in Italy” express.

Between Wujan and Milan.

--- “The measure is essential to ensure surveillance and detection of possible variants of the virus in order to protect the Italian population,” Italian Health Minister Orazio Schillaci said.

This is about assuring the so-called "green pass" -- proposed by the EU as far back as 2015, and in mimic of the Chinese "digital pass" -- such that we will probably see the call for "harmonizing" the surveillance regimes, so that Europe becomes Communist China, and China becomes a "member" of the EU -- and likely with technology being pushed by the Gates' investment strategy.

Digital ID, because we care....

Yes, exactly, see also my #23.

This is somewhat scandalous. Made in Italy means: Made in a 100% Chinese Enclave that just so happens to be enclosed entirely within the geographic borders of Italy.

Or:”More than half the passengers from chi-nuh to Milan are healthy!”. Train! Plane? Automobile? Sea transit?

False negatives are more likely than false positives.

If you look at a map of foreign born populations in Italy and a map of Covid outbreaks in Italy, they are a near exact match.
