Between 50 and 100 million people are thought to have died, representing as much as 5 percent of the world’s population. Half a billion people were infected.

We really don't know HOW many people died from the Bubonic plague, started in China. You can start enumerating all the plagues in our world. This is 2020 for heavens sake--not the 14th century.

For all that's happened in the world you would THINK that the Chinese would have LEARNED by now that cleanliness isn't so expensive. They still use human fecal waste to fertilize their farms.
The Chinese government KNOWS better but they just WON'T control the filth.

I've been to China. They couldn't hide the filth from us and we were shown ONLY the nicest, cleanest places in the PRC. Lord have MERCY!

You have been to China and most of us have not.

What is your take on the Chinese withholding samples of virus last year? Old time Great Wall of China suspicion? Or a plan to use as weapons against us and allies? Like their practice hacks on our water supply and electrical grid, plus jobs taken for espionage as well as intellectual property theft?

This area near me has a huge Chinese population (not only 4,352 college student ones—many others settled down and have anchor babies. I know they travel back and forth to China often. See airport travel style luggage being loaded and unloaded near here almost daily and airport limo stops here often.

Don’t bring us any “gifts” from your disease infested home, guys.
