The "new normal" the left wants for America is a lot like the old secular socialism. I wrote two weeks ago about New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio, who let slip his private fantasy of seizing and confiscating churches and synagogues — but no other institutions — if they violated New York’s belated quarantine laws.

Two Viruses Now, Just as in 1918
There’s a virus in the air, all right, alongside the Wuhan Flu. It’s potentially more deadly. It breeds in the souls of our elites and spreads via the schemes of our politicians.
The “Tyrannovirus” is not a new disease. We’ve endured it since the Fall of man. But like a biological virus, it mutates and takes different forms to overcome our defenses. And in time of crisis, such as a pandemic, we’re open to opportunistic infections.
Think of 1918. Tens of millions were dying of the Spanish Flu (which really came from Kansas, via sick U.S. soldiers whom Woodrow Wilson insisted on shipping to France).
Meanwhile something much deadlier was brewing over in Russia. The Bolshevik regime still tottering then would have been easy for neighbors to topple. But they were sick and distracted. So they let Lenin, Trotsky, and Stalin capture a vast nation, whose revolution would conquer half the world. Communism would slaughter or starve many millions more than any flu. And its aggressions would force the West to rely for its own defense on ungodly nuclear weapons whose use would have ended our species.

The leftists are trying to panic people in order to have a crisis where they can transform society so it is more to their liking.
“Spanish Flu (which really came from Kansas, via sick U.S. soldiers whom Woodrow Wilson insisted on shipping to France).”
Didn’t people have the flu over there before our troops arrived?
Yes there is. Problem is, America doesn’t have the stomach for it.
It was present in France, probably in a British army camp first, but...it probably came from China. The French had imported large numbers of Chinese laborers to help with the farm work in this rural part of France, since all of the able bodied French men had been called up.
It went through the British and US military camps and they brought it back to their respective countries. It was called Spanish because while it was first detected in France, those countries were under military censorship and it couldn’t be reported. Spain was neutral and did not have censorship, so when it got there, reporters could report it.
You are correct. The appropriate remedy is a hemoglobin transfusion coupled with a lead supplement.
I don’t get the attempts to rewrite the origin as being the U.S.
“I don’t get the attempts to rewrite the origin as being the U.S.”
Really? It’s to continue the narrative of blaming the US for the current virus.

Indeed! It has a 100% cure rate. Just one little 150 grain pill and the problem goes away.
It’s been an attempted rewrite for awhile.
Many Chinese laborers were shipped to France via Canada during WW1.
