  1. You are right about it. There is no second lockdown?
  2. You are right. How is the situation right over there in your country? All is fine?
  3. No choice this is his actual standard and we need to accept it.
  4. https://futurism.com/neoscope/list-trumps-broken-coronavirus-promises A BRIEF LIST OF TRUMP’S BROKEN CORONAVIRUS PROMISES TRUMP HAS ACCOMPLISHED VERY LITTLE IN THE MONTH SINCE HIS EMERGENCY DECLARATION. On March 13, U.S. President Donald Trump declared a national emergency because of the coronavirus pandemic and promised broad, sweeping action to rapidly distribute tests and treatments. One month later, little of that has happened. Meanwhile, the American COVID-19 death toll continues to climb upward and not only has the promised medical testing not arrived, but the government may actually reduce its response efforts. During his emergency declaration, which many described as a bizarre infomercial for corporations including Roche Diagnostics and Target, Trump announced a close public-private partnership to mobilize against the outbreak. Here’s some of what he promised compared to what actually happened, as reported by NPR. Promise: Google will develop a website to help people across America screen for COVID-19 symptoms from home. Reality: Google never created such a site. But Verily, owned by the same parent company as Google, did roll out screening and testing sites in five California counties. Promise: Drive-through coronavirus testing in the parking lots of major retailors like CVS and Target. Reality: Target never entered a formal partnership with the government. CVS, Walmart, and Walgreens opened a total of eight sites, combined, across the entire country. Promise: The healthcare company LHC Group would provide equipment to let people who think they’re sick get tested at home. Reality: LHC Group told NPR that it hasn’t rolled out home testing, but that it has spent the past month trying to get protective equipment for its medical workers. Promise: Trump said he would waive license requirements to let doctors practice in states that need more hands on deck. Reality: Medical licenses are issued by the state, so Trump couldn’t have followed through on this promise if he tried. Meanwhile, what success America has encountered thus far stems from everyday people doing their part: staying home as much as possible, and keeping their distance from others when they have to venture outside.
  5. https://futurism.com/neoscope/secret-us-intelligence-report-china-hid-size-pandemic SECRET U.S. INTELLIGENCE REPORT: CHINA HID THE SIZE OF THE PANDEMIC INTELLIGENCE OFFICIALS SAY CHINA IS STILL UNDERREPORTING THE SEVERITY OF THE CORONAVIRUS OUTBREAK. The U.S. intelligence community seems to be increasingly convinced that China downplayed the severity of its coronavirus outbreak — and that it continues to do so. A classified report that intelligence agencies sent to the White House allegedly concludes that China’s official tally of coronavirus cases and deaths doesn’t tell the whole story, three anonymous officials told Bloomberg. If they’re right, it’s bad news for other countries that have depended on China’s data and insight to craft their own responses to COVID-19. “The medical community made — interpreted the Chinese data as: This was serious, but smaller than anyone expected,” Deborah Birx, the State Department immunologist, said at a Tuesday news conference, according to Bloomberg. “Because I think probably we were missing a significant amount of the data, now that what we see happened to Italy and see what happened to Spain.” Of course, there’s reason to be skeptical of this particular narrative — the Trump administration has increasingly blamed China for the global pandemic, arguably to draw attention away from its own failures, and dubiously-sourced reports that China deliberately hid how bad things were would be politically convenient. But ever since the outbreak began last year, dissidents in China have accused the government of censorship, downplaying the risks and severity of the coronavirus, and punishing those who spoke up. Last week, China made headlines when the epicenter city of Wuhan reported no new cases for several days in a row. Its rapidly-built emergency hospitals have even started to close down as they become unnecessary. Now the intelligence community is calling that success story into question — and along with it much of what we’ve learned about the viral outbreak.
  6. https://futurism.com/neoscope/china-censoring-research-origin-coronavirus CHINA IS CENSORING RESEARCH INTO THE ORIGIN OF THE CORONAVIRUS "THE DANGER IS THAT WHEN SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH IS SUBJECT TO THE NEEDS OF THOSE IN POWER." In what appears to be another attempt to control the narrative surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, the Chinese government is imposing new restrictions on scientists attempting to research how the coronavirus originated. Now, any paper attempting to do so must pass extra checks and be approved by the government before it can be published, CNN reports. It is important that controversial medical research is carefully vetted before it goes out into the world, of course, but academics trying to study the coronavirus say the government is imposing new censorship under the guise of academic rigor. “I think it is a coordinated effort from (the) Chinese government to control (the) narrative, and paint it as if the outbreak did not originate in China,” an anonymous researcher who had their work obstructed told CNN. “And I don’t think they will really tolerate any objective study to investigate the origination of this disease.” The new restrictions have also left researchers confused. Some speculated to CNN that the government is grappling with heightened sensitivity around a controversial topic. Others noted that they always had to go through several rounds of vetting to publish their work in prestigious journals. “It is no surprise that the government seeks to control related scientific research so that the findings do not challenge its own narrative on the origin of the virus and the government response to the crisis,” Yanzhong Huang, a global health researcher at Washington’s Council on Foreign Relations, told CNN. “The danger is that when scientific research is subject to the needs of those in power,” Huang added, “it further undermines the credibility of the government narrative, making accusations of underreporting and misinformation more convincing.”
  7. @nitinsanker It is very hard to belief such things. Somehow reading all the different research papers written by Dr Shi Zhengli and her team of researchers about the bats Coronavirus really convinced me that this virus is deadly and it is man made. You can find her research papers online and read them yourself.
  8. There are even research papers published about bats Coronavirus research back many year ago right up to year 2015. All those research papers are published by Dr Shi Zhengli and her research team who are doing research about the virus. You can find the research paper online.
  9. Yes you are right. Which is why I have seen lots of videos but did not share the link here. Somehow the truth is there.
  10. Yes I have seen this video before and many other videos as well.
  11. There are lots of videos about the origin of the virus. Lots of videos with all the proofs to show as evidence.
  12. Thank you very much for sharing this.
  13. Yes the scientists are doing research inside the lab and then the virus accidently leak out when the researchers doing the research got caught with the virus and further spread it out.
  14. It is getting more and more dangerous day by day. No vaccine can be found. America side have started to experiment on using Malaria drugs to treat their patients. It ended up with a very horrible outcome with many patients dead. So they also dare not use thie malaria drugs anymore. As of now no vaccine can be found for this deadly virus.
  15. https://www.the-scientist.com/news-analysis/sars-escaped-beijing-lab-twice-50137 Laboratory safety at the Chinese Institute of Virology under close scrutiny
  16. I will give you some link and source.
  17. Yes it is a very deadly virus. I mean every country do have their own research team. China also have their own research team. I read many articles. Eventually this research is done in China research lab. Initially America is also doing research about virus. After knowing about how deadly virus can turn into, America side have stopped their funding to do research on virus as it is dangerous way long ago back in year 2014. Somehow China still continue with their research and this is the outcome of it.
  18. We could be getting into lots of latest discovery story. There are lots of such stories available online. Even in Australia we have lots of updates about the origin of the virus and also how to better handle the whole pandemic.
  19. Well this will have to depend on the antibody of the person. Some young people might still survive. Old people with existing lungs and kidney problems will have difficutlies to survive.
  20. @nitinsanker This is not the first time that the virus escaped from the lab. In the past many different types of virus have escaped from the lab due to the carelessness of the researchers in the lab. Different researchers are doing research at the lab and then the researchers themselves got infected with the virus. Then without knowing it they kept spreading it to those surrounding them. That is how the SARS virus leaked out from the lab and this SARS pandemic lasted for 2 years from 2002 till 2003.
  21. @nitinsanker Lots of countries around the whole world in the European continent and the American continent have offered their help and told China side to give them the pattern of the virus and every details of the patient they had so they can help out and work out on the vaccine. However no information coming from China. They refused to say anything. That is why till today the vaccine cannot be found. No one has the answer as to how this virus can keep on mutating itself and spread to people so fast. All they know is that the virus will attack the lungs and kidney of the patients causing the patients lungs and kidneys to mulfunction which led to the death of the patients. So imagine those old people with existing heart attack and kidney problem? They are bound to die very fast. A great scientist from Czech republic managed to piece the Coronavirus together and said there are 5 types of the virus. It started from the A type then mutated to be the B type then C type then D type and finally E type. She said the virus is very deadly. She said there is no way the virus that originated from the bats can enter the human body that easily. What happen now is the virus is taken out from different species of the bats and being mixed all together to create a very deadly weapon. The researcher at the lab tried it on the mice and the lungs of the mice imediately gone bad and died. Then the researcher at the lab also tested them on monkeys. They knew it is a very deadly virus. Somehow the virus infected the researchers doing the research at the lab. Due to the unavoidable lab accident, the virus leak out from the lab and continue to spread to the whole world.
  22. It has been like that from the very beginning.
  23. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-8215127/Heart-woes-spur-partial-stop-malaria-drug-study-virus.html Trial of high doses of malaria drug to treat coronavirus in Brazil stopped early after A QUARTER of patients developed heart problems Scientists in the Brazilian city of Manaus were planning to enroll 440 severely ill coronavirus patients in a trial of chloroquine The drug is an older version of hydroxychloroquine, an anti-malaria drug being tested in coronavirus patients after Trump hailed it a 'game-changer' One quarter of the 81 patients given 600mg of chloroquine in the Brazil study developed heart arrhythmias and they may have been at greater risk of death Scientists stopped the high-dose trial early and only one patient cleared the virus after being treated with the drug Notably, the patients developing heart arrhythmias were being treated with a higher dose than is being used for most patients in the US Heart arrhythmias were a known side effect of chloroquine according to studies of malaria and autoimmune disorder patients Learn more about how to help people impacted by COVID Scientists in Brazil have stopped part of a study of a malaria drug touted as a possible coronavirus treatment after heart rhythm problems developed in one-quarter of people given the higher of two doses being tested. Chloroquine and a newer, similar drug called hydroxychloroquine, have been pushed by President Donald Trump after some early tests suggested the drugs might curb the virus from entering cells. But the drugs have long been known to have potentially serious side effects, including altering the heartbeat in a way that could lead to sudden death. The Brazilian study, in the Amazonian city of Manaus, had planned to enroll 440 severely ill COVID-19 patients to test two doses of chloroquine, but researchers reported results after only 81 had been treated. One-fourth of those assigned to get 600 milligrams twice a day for 10 days developed heart rhythm problems, and trends suggested more deaths were occurring in that group, so scientists stopped that part of the study.
  24. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8173363/Wuhan-doctor-went-public-spread-coronavirus-goes-missing.html Wuhan doctor who was among the first to alert other medics to the spread of coronavirus 'goes missing' amid fears she has been detained for speaking out Dr Ai Fen was the first doctor to alert other colleagues about a SARS-like disease Her text led her co-worker Dr Li Wenliang to raise the concerns on social media Dr Ai said she faced 'unprecedented, extremely harsh reprimand' after sharing She gave interview criticising hospital and then went missing, reports suggest A Wuhan doctor who was among the first to alert other medics to the spread of coronavirus has disappeared sparking concerns that she has been detained, reports suggest. Dr Ai Fen said she faced 'unprecedented, extremely harsh reprimanded' by officials at Wuhan Central Hospital after she shared a picture of a patient report labelled 'SARS coronavirus'. The image was widely circulated and made its way to whistle-blower Li Wenliang who raised the alarm about the bug, which has killed more than 41,000 people worldwide. Dr Li was reprimanded by authorities for 'illegally spreading untruthful information online'. Dr Ai gave an interview to a Chinese magazine criticising the hospital's management for dismissing the early warnings of the coronavirus but has not been seen since, 60 Minutes Australia reported.
