China didn't warn public of likely pandemic for 6 key days
Associated Press ^ | April 15, 2020 | Associated Press

In the six days after top Chinese officials secretly determined they likely were facing a pandemic from a new coronavirus, the city of Wuhan at the epicenter of the disease hosted a mass banquet for tens of thousands of people; millions began traveling through for Lunar New Year celebrations.

the biggest sign of their evil
is that they stopped traffic to THEIR OTHER CHINESE CITIES
while allowing, and enouraging through WHO,
air travel to every other country.

Inquiring minds want to know:
Did Xi tip off Putin of their initiation of WW3?

Bring Out Your Dead

Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.

The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.

The false positive rate was 100%.

At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.

*sigh* Such is life, and death...

If a quarantine saves just one child's or one old fart’s life, it's worth it.

Considering 6 days prior WHO was selling their lies, a whole lot of corruption is at play.

@WHO · Jan 14
Preliminary investigations conducted by the Chinese authorities have found no clear evidence of human-to-human transmission of the novel #coronavirus (2019-nCoV) identified in #Wuhan, #ChinaFlag of China.

Just heard this report, on FoxBiz.

And, even once they shut off Wuhan/Hubei....they STILL had flights LEAVING from that area, daily.

I find it curious that the MSM has rapidly shifted from “Its all Trump’s fault for not acting a day or two sooner” to now “Its all China’s fault.”

What changed to make that shift? Trump’s vigorous defense of his actions before WHO acted? His calling out of the ridiculous charges of racism and xenophobia? His exposure of the Dems constantly saying “nothing to worry about”?

It takes a lot to get the Dem Marxist Press off “Get Trump”.

Title :" China didn't warn public of likely pandemic for 6 key days "

silverleaf : " Gee, sounds deliberate... "

Ya think so ?
Anywhere else, in a criminal court, it would be called obstruction, criminal negligence, and fraud .
The fact that this cover-up occurred with the blessing of the WHO, one would also add a charge of conspiracy.
This pandemic belongs in the Hague, World Court to determine damages, accountability, responsibility, and penalty.
As one FReeper indicated earlier, this pandemic, if intentionally engineered in a lab, was allowed to prosper
with the intent to take down the United States as a world power;
the rest of the world was just "collateral damage".

Sec. Esper is doing everything he can not to answer those very questions on FNC right now. He was charged with finding out if it was deliberate from a lab or from nature and his determination is it was natural. Somehow, the faster he speaks just to his meme an avoids the questions, the more unbelievable he becomes.

The Associated Press is mighty gentle on the Chicoms. AP says that they delayed for six days to avoid "panic" or "hysteria" and that "millions began traveling through for Lunar New Year celebrations". What does "traveling through" mean? ... all over China … apparently not. More like traveling to Italy and the USA.

I read that 5 of the 10 million residents of Wuhan fled the city. That is a lot of spreaders, if true. Too bad we cannot trust anything that our "news" media reports.

From what I can decipher from the virology reports coming out since Jan, there is nothing natural about this pathogen It is deiberately created to do the damage it is doing, and probably more damage in the future to its infected host. We are not being told.

I’m sure they didn’t mean to do anything bad.

It was just a simple misunderestimation of a potential minor health problem.

And they got it wrong ... so what?

Nothing intentional, of course ... coulda happenedta anybody.

“What difference, at this point, does it make?!?!?”

More like six WEEKS. And they arrested a doctor who put it on social media in week 1 or 2. Google probably ratted him out.
