COVERED WITH SPIKES to ensure it latches onto those host cells
LETHAL, especially in elderly people. How convenient since China’s #1 economic issue facing them is their surging elderly population
STEALTHY, able to be spread by people who show no symptoms at all, or none for 14 days, ensuring maximum spread.
EXTREMELY EASY to transmit through air and on surfaces ensuring maximum spread
HARD TO KILL - as it will survive for days on various surfaces and through high temperatures, ensuring maximum spread
NOT TREATABLE with the normal methods used to treat flu and pneumonia, therefore using up HUGE medical resources, which can easily break a nation financially
DOESN’T INFECT ANIMALS - this is the big one. What better biological weapon than one that kills all the humans and leaves behind the animals!
Yeahhhh, this was some random virus from bats. Wasn’t tweaked in a lab AT ALL.
Dr. Fauci, for what price did you sell your soul to the CCP to spout this nonsense?

Your list is the mostly hype the DEEP STATE and fear mongers have been pushing to keep the sheep controlled and is full of half-truths and outright falsehoods.
When the Novel Coronavirus-19 first charged out of China, we did not know what we were looking at and took the measures as if it was a MONSTER, but as more and more was learned, it became apparent it was NOT THE MONSTER the mainstream media was trumpeting 24/7 is STILL screaming at the top of the progressive Liberal lungs it is.
The first two are only semi-true.
- COVERED WITH SPIKES to ensure it latches onto those host cells. They are not spikes. They are connectors that latch onto receptors on cells. They are more like specifically cut keys that fit into almost unique locks on specific cells, ACE2 cells, which unlocks entry through the cell wall to allow access the cells RNA and DNA replication machinery.
- LETHAL, especially in elderly people. Even among older people, the actual case mortality rate, the possibility of dying for those who contract this disease is only about 5-6%, if that. The overall case mortality rate, even at the start, was less than 2%. We now are looking at an overall case mortality rate that may be as low as 0.1% or less.
Your third point is absolutely true.
- STEALTHY, able to be spread by people who show no symptoms at all, or none for 14 days, ensuring maximum spread. This one is absolutely true, because approximately 95% of those who contract this disease never know theyve had it. However, this is a hallmark of almost any infectious disease. They result in a bell curve of infected persons. At one end are those who are fatally impacted. At the other are those who completely fight off the invasion of the virus. In between are those who are infected who display a range of symptoms from severe to none at all, but recover. The vast majority will have either mild symptoms, discomfort, or not know they are infected.
The next is another half-truth:
- EXTREMELY EASY to transmit through air and on surfaces. It is only airborne, but not extremely easy to transmit through air. Surfaces is much more problematic as it does not survive on surfaces for any appreciable length of time as some other more robust viruses can. It is a fragile virus, being deactivated by exposure to UV light, sunlight, heat, and just exposure to weather. It has not been found to survive longer on any surface longer than a day or so in protected environments. Outside, Meh.
This last three are actually not at all true. In fact they are false.
- HARD TO KILL - COVID19 survives only for a few hours on surfaces. Depending on the surface, and environmental conditions, sometimes only for a few minutes. It actually is remarkably easy to deactivate. (Viruses are not truly living) Sunlight will kill it in minutes. The virus dies in exposure to Ozone. It deactivates in exposure to chlorine. Many chemicals will deactivate it. UV light is deadly to it. Moderate temperatures are not at all friendly to it.
- NOT TREATABLE with the normal methods used to treat flu and pneumonia: It actually does respond to normal methods for treating flu and pneumonia, and is now known to have a lower case mortality rate than some of the more severe influenzas. The CDC has REDUCED the total fatality counts this past week, discounting the COVID19 deaths by removing from the count those who died from other causes, including seasonal influenza, myocardial infarctions, even automobile accidents and murders. A chart on the CDC site shows that at its worst, the overall mortality in the US, during its worst week which ended April 11, was increased over normal expected levels 22%. Its been known since the publication of a scientific paper on a double-blind study in 2005, published by Dr. Faucis own organization that Hydroxychloroquine, in combination with Azithromycin and Zinc was an effective treatment for all versions of Corona virus infections. Dr. Fauci is ignoring his organizations peer-reviewed published science to deny it is. There are several more besides the HCL therapy that are being used effectively around the world, including Ozone Sufflation or IV Ozone therapy, UV blood irradiation, and even high dosage Vitamin D3.
- DOESNT INFECT ANIMALS: The COVID19 receptors actually do, according to a chart I recently saw in a scientific paper, infect the ACE2 cells several species of animals including human beings. Apparently, including, surprisingly Giraffes and hamsters. The claim that it does not is FAKE NEWS. How it affects them is another thing. There are reports of some cats. Specifically tigers are susceptible. Why? Likely, their ACE2 are similar to human ACE2.
