Shanghai officials over the next few days will further restrict access to food and hospitals in the city, the most severe phase of its extended lockdown yet. BBC News has the story.
Commercial food deliveries are not allowed and access to hospitals for all but emergencies must first be approved. Neighbours of COVID-19 cases and others living close by are also being forced into government quarantine facilities. Shanghai is now in its seventh week of city-wide restrictions.
Confirmed cases have fallen significantly from their peak, but authorities have not yet been able to hit the target of what they call “societal zero”, where no cases are reported outside of quarantine facilities.
Despite the tougher measures, Shanghai officials insist that people living in half the city’s districts are now free to leave their homes and walk around.
State media has shown propaganda videos of departing medical workers visiting city landmarks together and taking photographs.
Official notices from local committees of the ruling Communist Party, seen by the BBC, detail several restrictions imposed under what officials call “silent periods” for the next three days. These include only permitting Government food deliveries, not allowing residents to “step out” of their front doors and requiring approval from the committee for anyone other than emergency cases to access hospitals…
The tightened measures come just days after China’s president Xi Jinping re-iterated his commitment to the controversial ‘Zero-Covid’ strategy. In a paper published in the health journal the Lancet earlier this week, senior Chinese health officials said the lockdown would “buy time to vaccinate more people”.
Their comments come after the head of the World Health Organisation called China’s Zero-Covid strategy unsustainable.
“When we talk about Zero-Covid, we don’t think that it’s sustainable, considering the behaviour of the virus now and what we anticipate in the future,” Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said on Tuesday at a news conference.
The clip was widely shared on Chinese social media before being blocked by censors. More than two years after COVID-19 first emerged here officials figures show around 90% of the population nationwide has been vaccinated. But only 38% of the more vulnerable – those over 60 – in Shanghai have the full protection [sic] of three vaccinations.
Buy time to vaccinate? How much time do they need, if 16 months isn’t enough?
This lockdown thing is really starting to get out of hand…

Thick as two short planks
Uninformed cosseted public, perhaps. Leadership, definitely not.
To understand what’s going on you need to look at the history of such campaigns in China, in particular the Four Pests Campaign of the late 50s, which attempted to eliminate rats, flies, mosquitos and sparrows from the country, and ended in tragedy, as the grandiose ideas of unchallenged authority frequently do.
I think those who think: “those wily Chinese must be up to something” are overthinking what is simply the hubris of central planning combined with technology.
Correct, as an ideology, communism denies man has a mind and this is certainly consistent with that belief.
Strange that means that most of out Leaders must be Communists!
Closet commies.
I would give you a piece of my mind for that remark, but it would put me at risk…..🤣
I wonder if our Lords and Masters are watching thinking ‘Oh shit! that was nearly us’
or ‘Damn! that should have been us’.
Or, Damn we missed our chance, wonder if we could have another go come the autumn?
Or possibly they’re thinking “we couldn’t get away with that here ….. except …….actually we could if the Anglosphere and the rest of Europe joined in. Best amend the WHO Agreement to facilitate it.”
The leadership are showing they’re intergalactically stupid.
Emperor Xi shows that he’s intergalactically powerful.
This is a Ming the Merciless ploy: he sets his subjects on each other for no other reason than to demonstrate that he can.
Nothing more than the socialist doctrine; it will work because I want it to work.
Square peg, round hole. No matter to a socialist, they will fit.
All of what you describe is fully consistent with Communism. If they fight each other, they can’t fight him.
Does that mean they are Lizard People ?
No, just dictators, totalitarians.
If you were a dictator and don’t want to end the same way Mussolini did, you need to get your enemies to fight each other. You encourage them to rat on each other, something the Germans found the French didn’t need, they had to discard three quarters of the French complaints about each other.
Remember August 2020, when, in particular, Fart Hancockwomble and Priti Vacant encouraged people to rat on each other after imposing purposefully vague laws?
I’ll see your 2 planks and raise you to 4 planks.
Followed a link to this rather disturbing piece, by an American living in Shanghai.
Shanghai Lockdown – BS!
Seems to me he’s in exactly the right place, China, and the rest of the Democrat/RINO authority-loving US disease obsessives, and their UK Labour/Green/”Conservative” equivalents, should all move over there to live the way they obviously want to live, rather than continuing to try to change our societies into the totalitarian one they so obviously pine for. .
He’s living in the real reality. The rest of us have to make do with the reality… so we don’t understand.
He does some calculations based on some bogus assumptions that he proclaims as “the best data available” and with that he emphatically claims that the Chinese government is saving lives and that’s “a fact”.
Are his assumptions available for questioning? Nope. They are facts.
Does the government have the right to treat people like serfs on the pretext of “saving lives”? Yes, that’s also not open for question.
Is the declining death rate a result of “vaccines”? Yes, that’s also a fact.
This person is the poster child of the modern day slave, not only very adept at rationalising his slavery but actually prepared to fight to preserve it.
“the poster child of the modern day slave, not only very adept at rationalising his slavery but actually prepared to fight to preserve it“
Aggressively and enthusiastically so, it appears.
He’s come up with some outlandish calculation of potential deaths based on the assumption that everyone in China gets infected and dies at a rate of 0.6%, and confidently states the whole thing to be “fact”.
It’s the Ferguson school of modelling. Make the worst possible assumptions – it doesn’t matter if they bear no relation to reality – to come up with a scary death figure which is then presented out of all possible context.
Except Ferguson used the technique to justify enslaving others. This character is using it to justify his own enslavement.
He also exemplifies the extent to which seemingly intelligent and educated people like him can have shackles added round his neck without his even noticing it. To him, people in China have been living pretty much a normal life. For clarity that involves scanning in and out of every public place with your phone to be tracked and wearing a face mask most of the time. That’s normality for this arrogant twat.
The problem for us is the significant proportion of humanity who are comfortable with that kind of life – even eager for it.
I think that’s more a case of If in Rome, act as the Romans do (proverbial in German, as is howling with the pack [leader]).
Many virtually live it in the west anyway.
Dissent withers and dies unless it’s vigorously exercised.
And eager to force it on everyone else too!
The Chinese goverment is destroying lives, that’s a fact and well within human capability. Saving lives isn’t, that’s usually the domain of some deity with actual power over death.
It’s important to keep in mind that our own life savers, eg, the inpronouncable Devi or the sesame street horror known as Susan Michie are still very much itching for a fourth season. Especially the latter, who’s on record for praising China for the rationality of its societal and political organization. People who openly despise the countries they’re living in certainly shouldn’t become government advisors.
The people who openly despise the countries they live in should move to a country they admire.
Don’t. My heart’s all a flutter at the thought of not living with them.
The wording was probably a bit too clumsy. If Michie wants to live in a society organized in such an irrational way as the one in the UK is organized according to her, that’s her prerogative. But she certainly shouldn’t get into any position of political power in a society to whose workings she’s vehemently opposed to unless she at least manages to get elected by someone. People are never impartial, their political leanings will always colour their actions. Michie is known to be opposed to a free society. Hence, she absolutely shouldn’t advise the government of one on what kinds of society-wide, enforced changes make technical sense in a given situation.
I mean, for a crude simplification, communist advises that communism must urgently be implemented to handle serious challenges effectively isn’t really surprising.
Agree.
how about trying to bring on some change in the country one lives in?
and who decides what the country should be?
fascists like you?
you can make the rules in your house but not in mine nor in the rest of the country.
Mitchie needs psychiatric counselling. She’s clearly mad as a drawer full of left hand spoons.
And maybe he should watch some videos from Florida from summer 2020 onwards, and see all the bodies in the streets.
Mostly, those bodies were still alive, enjoying themselves, not locked up in their homes, and not dying from Covid at any higher rate than locked down California, despite having an older population….
Lord Haw Haw?
Dunno. But we are to believe that internet use is severely monitored and restricted by the communist regime, so how did he get this through the censors?
Could it be something to do with him condemning ‘foreigners’ and their unreasonable expectations of eating luxuries, like blueberries.
I didn’t watch much of it so have no idea how it ended up, but the start wasn’t promising.
Seems he’s too stupid to realise that he’d be taken out back and shot if he said anything different while living in Shanghai.
How to crash your economy part XXVII – shut down your most important trading centre.
What is really going on? It feels like collective hysteria wasn’t a blip but a real long term affliction.
‘Stress test ‘for when the US tries to destroy China with its usual ploy of Economic Warfare and sanctions? Getting the now soft Chinese used again to the hardship/tyranny that used to be their everyday life not so long ago?Demonstrating and reminding them that the Chinese Communist Party and State has absolute control over their lives and deaths?
Also an example to the west ( like the last time only even harsher and more deadly )of what they must do when the ‘Chinese’ Tedros and Gates controlled WHO forces vaccine mandates on the Governments that are all about to sign up to give them this draconian power?
We are sleep-walking into total chaos and total disaster led by a dishonest Clown.
Great question.
I am ruling out the ‘the pursuit of Zero Covid’ as an explanation for this, it’s frankly preposterous. Why have they not been ‘pursuing Zero Covid’ these last two years? This is a very silly idea.
Could it simply be that the Chinese government has not yet utilised COVID-1984 in the way that most other nations have – to install a nascent infrastructure for the upcoming transition to CBDCs?
I know China is already something of a technocracy, but perhaps they need to upgrade their systems, starting with Beijing and Shanghai? Exactly the cities you would first roll out such a system?
Then there’s Martin Armstrong’s suggestion that it’s a deliberate move to reduce the supply of goods to the West, thus increasing inflation there.
I share your suspicion of the “China has gone mad and is obsessed with Zero Covid” theory.
Communism can’t admit it’s irrational and, so, must continue with the same old pish, expecting different results.
These people aren’t that clever.
They’ve gone down an irrational route and will just carry on down that path because they can, because they’ve discovered the extent to which we really see ourselves as slaves of the state.
The big discovery of the last 20 years is that the population is actually so much easier to abuse and mistreat than was assumed.
For us things really turned with the Iraq war. Nobody wanted it but they did it anyway. It was a disaster and they were caught lying about their motives and literally nothing happened. No consequences.
The financial crisis emboldened them. The scale of the corruption and fraud was beyond anything anyone could imagine. The whole system was hijacked and corrupted to protect the wealth of the richest and again nothing happened. No consequences.
This corona crisis is just the next stage in their abuse of the common man. Lock them up, gag them, jab them with experimental juice. Not only will the plebs not complain, they’ll bray for more.
I’m not saying anything that wasn’t predicted by the likes of Huxley and Orwell. I’m just pointing out some of details of how it’s actually ended up happening.
The only reason we haven’t gone quite as far as China (yet) is that our leaders don’t quite have the balls that the CCP leadership do. I have no doubt that if they really went for it, deploying whatever force necessary, they could pull it off.
As Ferguson pointed out in his interview in the Times, they didn’t think lockdowns would be tolerated here until Italy did them and proved they could. All that is standing between us and this new higher state of totalitarianism is an Italy prepared to give it a whirl.
OMG Stewart, excellent analysis.
I agree; but I would add that history teaches us that “the plebs” are capable of doing much more than complaining and have done so in the past.
Stewart might well have no doubt that the authorities could “pull off” astonishing levels of coercion (I certainly find current levels astonishing). But they are constrained by that historical awareness, even if it’s something very few of them have.
If Italy does indeed “give it a whirl”, it will find a populace that has had very different experiences from those of 2020. The effects are not entirely predictable – there or anywhere else.
Replace “pursuit of zero covid” with “attempt to break the back of the global supply chains in advance of ww3” and you’ve got a headline reflective of what’s actually happening.
Sorry Aiden – should have looked further down! I agree. It’s a more plausible explanation.
Just read the article attached:
Ukraine Cuts Off Gas to Europe and the Inflation Double Whammy (sonar21.com)
It includes the following observations:
“China is using Covid as a convenient excuse to sabotage the U.S. economy and it is helping fuel inflation. The recent lockdown in Shanghai, for example, makes no sense. For the first two years of the pandemic, China reported one of the lowest infection rates in the world and did not embark on massive lockdowns.
“Now, out of nowhere, China claims to be battling a deadly disease.
One of the major consequences of this effort to quell Covid in China is a further disruption of critical exports to the United States. Instead of coming out and declaring it was retaliating economically against the United States, China is using Covid as a convenient excuse to damage the import dependent U.S. economy.”
so covid as ‘cover’ then
why is MSM not reporting this?
why does it take the wise heads on this site to expose this?
I think that Russia is the only villain in the MSM’s town at the moment!
They hurting themselves because they must seek to hurt us in a really contorted way! is a seriously poor attempt at substituting a conspiracy theory in place of facts contradicting it. Global capitalists are already moving manufacturing out of China to places where labour or just overall production cost is cheaper, including moving it back to the UK in isolated cases.
For as long as we can keep our own would-be Xis away from the levers of power, this is just a mildy entertaining demonstration that China and superpower belong just as much into a single, affirmative sentence as wooden and space ship.
I think you might want to have a double check through your history books there friend. China has been a great civilisation and power for millennia. Let’s see how much they’re hurting in a year’s time relative to us and we’ll revisit your snarky comment.
Its the economy, nothing to do with a virus. China is trying to stop a meltdown financially. Its 2008 for them with housing debt. Also they are switching from exports to a GDP based more on internal consumption, to do that without collapsing everything ( and getting the heads cut off, not unusual in Chinese history) they need to grind almost everything to a stop. Its affecting all the world, with supply chains broken. Over 30% of the world’s containers are currently going nowhere in Chinese ports.
Covid is a heaven sent opportunity and they are making the most of it.
I like this interpretation. It makes sense.
If they just want to crash and trash the world economy I wish they would get a move on with it – all this waiting and wondering and keeping us all in suspense is doing my head in.
(obvs, I don’t want the world economy to be trashed/crashed!)
Since it always takes a certain level of prosperity to sustain madness, a crash of the world economy would end it.
Think of all those great English eccentrics of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, building castles underground or staying in bed for six months of the year, or whatever. Think of Howard Hughes in his Vegas hotel.
It takes wealth to sustain madness.
Straightened circumstances force both individuals and societies to orient themselves once again to reality, if they wish to survive.
Madness erodes resources and is inevitably ended when they run out.
It’s happening. Don’t expect a stock market Black Monday kind of meltdown. It’s more like slow motion train wreck.
Prices are skyrocketing, supplies are becoming more scarce, it’s happening.
‘Covid is a heaven sent opportunity and they are making the most of it.”
That is exactly what Schwab said to his WEF minions in Davos and circulated to his operatives and ‘sleepers’ in Governments around the world – including ours!.
Probably me just over thinking things, but as Shanghai is Chinas major trading port and China is (happy to be corrected) the worlds biggest producer of goods. Could this be a ploy to bugger up the worlds supply chains. (I understand that China produces something like 90% of all ship containers and 100% of all refrigerated containers. As well as building most of the worlds containerised shipping).
By holing up and stopping the movement of a good percentage of global trade, this will have a major impact on world trade.
I’m very happy to be corrected or hear other theories.
If that were the goal it could have been achieved by simply declaring a paid nationwide public holiday for a month, to celebrate say the recent 100th birthday of the Communist Party.
That would have achieved something similar by pleasing everyone – everybody loves a paid holiday. All this does is piss people off.
Isn’t it cheaper just to imprison a city and it’s port with hysteria rather than pay the entire country to party. Also they can be selective in terms of place/s and times as to when they require disruption?
I take your point on the advantage of selectivity, however they are blotting their copybook and reputation for competence with the population as this goes on.
Shutting down everything for a month would have shut down production everywhere. Goods clogging the distributional chain is generating real costs for Chinese individuals and companies.
‘… be a ploy to bugger up the worlds supply chains..’
A bit late, the stellar cast of nitwits, nincompoops and incompetents in Western so-called Governments have done that already and are determined to continue the embuggerment to eliminate carbon dioxide from the World.
Yes, whatever China is up to, its not about Covid or wrecking economies, its own or anyone else’s.
Attack on the supply chains – certainly it is one important aspect of of it all and it and will help cause famine, dearth and death around the world – always important when you are imposing a New Order and a “Great Reset”.
They will be cheering in Davos! If only we had a Government working for the British people and not so openly and slavishly supporting the WEF Globalists.
Why is ni=o-one the rleast interested di the while series of very serious fires and arson attacks assaults on food producing companies across the US and even here in the UK? Have the Lunatic Green Fascists been called up and into action by their masters?
So – usual question – where are the Police?
The police are too busy saving the Planet.
yes – infant formula rationed in the USA – literally starving babies
Sweden!
I dunno? This whole Shanghai business makes no sense to me whatsoever.
I smell something fishy going on here – this appears to be more political than public health.
I suspect there is more to this than simply trying to contain and eliminate covid.
I think we are already past first base on this one!
Inscrutable.
Once you abandon all logic or rational behaviour, anything goes.
So yeah, let’s pretend the problem is that 10% haven’t been “vaccinated” and that this is all being done to protect the 62% supposedly more vulnerable because they are “unvaccinated”.
At least there is a certain consistency to the madness.
Many years ago (probably around the turn of the millenium in fact) I recall reading an article once about how a growing economy and free trade will be the foundation in China’s transformation away from a repressive communist regime and into a more free, open and wealthier nation with maybe even a democracy with free and fair elections – in fact the article was quite certain that China would become a democracy within the next decade or two due to a younger generation who were more attached to western ways than the old guard communist functionaries – but recent developments in Shanghai show just how fragile that foundation always was and how rapidly a totalitarian regime can quickly revert back to its old tyrannical ways.

“Devi Sridhar: The UK needs a zero-Covid strategy to prevent endless lockdowns
To avoid restrictions next winter, the UK must seek to eliminate the virus, not merely suppress it, argues the Edinburgh professor of global public health.”
The war on COVID will be as successful as the war on drugs.
Of course an unwinnable war is good news for “public health experts” people seeking a lifelong gravy train.
The UK needs punches from Frank Bruno to prevent injuries.
It’s an ill-wind…
What China – thank you – is demonstrating beyond any doubt is even with the strictest lockdown nonsense and vaccination up to the eyeballs, viruses cannot be controlled according to the whim of the idiots in charge.
This is ammunition against those who still clamour for restrictions, because if what the Chinese are doing doesn’t work, nothing will.
“Those who go to be tested decide nothing. Those who count the PCR-positives decide everything”
As Josef Stalin might have said.
Never mind the crimes against Humanity in China and those brutalised Chinese!
We are supposed to be obsessing over PutinManBad in Ukraine and Plucky™️ Ukrainians to whom BoJo-the-hut keeps sending lots of our money we don’t have, whilst British folk can’t afford to pay their energy bills or eat.
And the US who have similar problems to our own (California are going to have 2 – 3 hour blackouts ‘coz they haven’t got enough ‘leccie) are sending $40 billion to Ukraine. Quite obviously, Senile Joe is enjoying poking the bear.
Nobody with the least intelligence believes that this is anything whatever to do with the absurdity of “Zero Covid”
Has Gates tipped them off to prepare for his next planned ‘Pandemic’ when his WHO can force lockdowns on the whole world – Johnson can’t wait to sign us up to the WHO Power Grab which will give them control and authority to “Mandate” UK “Health” ( mass forced vaccination) Policy”!
It is time few more started to wake up!
It’s entirely possible the CCP doesn’t have some grand strategy and is simply insane. Communists have a pretty impressive track record in that department after all.
Well, communism is faith in the omnipotent state so this is entirely consistent with that.
Indeed. “The last one wasn’t proper lockdown, it’ll work this time comrade! Onward!”
Ha! Ha! Ha!
This is communism in action, an ideology that denies man has a mind and suffers the consequences when it’s implemented.
What’s not so funny is that so many in the West copied this moronic mediaeval superstition.
Mao’s Great Leap Forward remerges.
‘It’s for your own good.’
Even if they succeed in reaching Zero Covid, it would mean that China could never again allow foreigners to enter the country, or Chinese people to travel abroad. Xi has really got himself in a hole here.
A bunker, perhaps.
I suspect his lifetime reign will be subject to an abruptly terminated life.
I agree. He has got himself into a hole with no way out. He is in serious trouble.
You can pin this on communism and point to the Four Pests lunacy. However, I subscribe more to the idea that this is simply a personal test of power for Winnie the Flu.
Emperor Xi has decreed that Zero Coofs is achievable, and therefore Zero Coofs will be declared to have been achieved, even if he has to starve to death all those who defy him by testing positive.
Zero Coofs cannot go until Xi goes, and Xi will not go as long as he can show that he retains the influence to enforce the Zero Coofs policy. And around and around we go.
Everybody involved must know that it’s insanity. The point is that they will not dare to say so, or to demur.
It’s just an exercise in raw power. The only life that Flu Bear cares about is his own, and he will sacrifice as many peasants as necessary in order to preserve it.
I winder what it takes for one and a half billion people to revolt?
We might find out.
If Michael P. Senger is right (see Snake Oil: How Xi Jinping Shut Down the World) then the whole ‘pandemic’ was a plot to undermine western values, such as free speech, an independent judiciary, a free internet, and so on. It is a matter of record that Jimping sees these as the biggest threat to Chinese socialism. He makes a compelling case. His book was written prior to the recent crackdown but if you follow the logic through, perhaps this is Xi’s attempt to re-boot the pandemic. It must have been upsetting that everything was starting to go back to normal. I stress that this is my interpretation, not Senger’s but it seems as likely as any other theory to me, once you have eliminated the highly improbable theory that they are trying to eliminate SARS-CoV-2.
Yes I agree it’s more plausible than the idea they are trying to suppress an almost virus they could simply ignore (as they have been for the best part of two years) We need to better understand the relationship between these power blocs and financial and corporate America. There are just so many criminals at work right now it makes your head spin!
This ^^^^^^ !!!!!!!
The great myth that we little people can do anything about great power by understanding it.
We can’t, it’s impossible, which is why governments occupy our minds with the possibility that we can. It distracts us from actually doing something about the shit we’re in by revolting against our locally elected representatives and forcing then to take responsibility for their decisions.
Local elections?
Bah! A merry go round of unaccountable cronies bleeding us dry whilst they pretend to represent views different from one another.
My MP in dartford, Gareth Johnson crows on his website of his success in having a Yellow box junction, and camera’s located at a notorious roundabout over the M25 – after years of trying.
A Yellow box junction!!! The fact the problem hasn’t changed in the 30 years I’ve lived here doesn’t seem to occur to him. For some obscure reason, the camera’s are a first at a roundabout……….???
He has also refused to discuss the most important threat to humanity ever, climate change, after I sent him a perfectly civil letter. He didn’t answer it of course, he passed it onto some spotty school leaver in Westminster who’s reply was a badly photocopied, pro forma litany of crap from 20 years ago.
I suppose I should be grateful though, when I complained to Mr. Johnson his secretary took time out from her busy day to apologise for the bad photocopying.
It’s these lazy, good for nothing wasters who need a rocket up their jacksy, not the great and the good of geopolitic hierarchy.
China Russia and Israel all work together in a big way. Israel is home to many non-Jewish Russians who obtain Israeli passports and gain the full benefits of that such as unfettered access to the US and UK. The USSR and Israel are joined since birth. Perfect for infiltration of the UK and US by Russia. Israel is a technology juggernaut which is spawning the majoirty of this wonderful new “tech” like 5G and SMART CITIES which are set to improve our lives so much, only catch being that it involves the complete elimination of freedom and nonstop exposure to an off the charts level of nefarious wireless radiation and surveillance, to become a reality. But well all be safe thanks to all the super intensive surveillance AND Covid free, so its definitely worth sacrificing all our freedom for and the traitors in GOVUK are fully signed up to this agenda. This stretches as far as opposition party LABOURCAMP pondlife like ANDY BURNHAM – A SMART CITIES STOOGE. The plan is to have us living in a designed in Israel, Made In China dystopia, where your life can be swithced on and off at the flick of a switch. Thats what Burnham wants for all those lucky Mancunians. But fear not, there are plenty more stooges like Andy who are facilitating (I wonder what benefits they are on) the introduction of this completely deranged digital prison existence aka the NEW NORMAL. Convid is about making that nightmare vision – which is good to go – more of a reality. China is not the orchestrator here, the private banking cartels operating through the various power countries including Israel, China, Russia, UK, US etc are doing this, and stooges like Burnham are their treasonous little minions. They launched the Convid agenda from China. Its world government, controlled by the banksters, but playing the countries which they control off each other to hide the fact that its world government,
ANDY BURNHAM IS A CHANGE AGENT STOOGE FOR THIS EVIL:
The big problem is, if they achieve zero Covid (even if they have to lie about it) other countries will think they can achieve it using the same methods. That really can’t happen!
So are “they” looking after our wellbeing? If not, why not?
An Abstract in 4 Key Points:
-Dr. Fauci and a few other senior scientists knew instantly that the discovery of HIV spike inserts within the SAR-CoV-2 viral genome made it almost impossible for the virus to be natural.
-They knew about the Furin cleavage site [FCS], the single biggest genomic contributor to SARS-CoV-2’s ability to become a pandemic virus.
– They suppressed treatments that were already available – including the very fusion inhibitors implicated by the existence of the HIV inserts.
-Much of what has been done to combat the pandemic – especially here in the United States – has been the opposite of what would’ve been recommended, had all of the information been publicly known in early 2020.

This once again shows that COVID is centrally organized (and presumably, centrally organized under heavy Chinese influence) down to the wording of public statements: Buy time to vaccinate more people has been used by UK lockdown advocates since the so-called second wave receded in 2021. They’d still be using that today if they could.
I think it’s all just a cunning plan by the Chinese. They know we know they are a huge threat to world peace, so now they want to lull us into a false sense of superiority by pretending they are moronic brain dead yokels!
“This lockdown thing is really starting to get out of hand…”
“Starting”???
God knows what this is doing to the Chinese economy but, practically everything we make uses materials made in China…
I’ve noticed some media groups are criticising China and their lockdowns…. It wasn’t that long ago that all these media groups were begging to have more stricter lockdowns. I cannot stand the hypocrisy of all of this!
Correct. The world followed China’s lead in early 2020 so it’s a bit rich criticising them now.
Is this really about Covid? Or is it an excuse to effectively starve the West of its commodities. 513 million containers come out of that port and almost all of it heads to the West. The only thing that makes sense, is believing its part of China’s economic war with the West
Yep.
Well, there’s a surprise! Anyone who has been paying attention for the past two and a half years will be aware that this happens everwhere – waves rise, then fall, and there’s no evidence that draconian restrictions make any difference at all to the timing or peak numbers.
Jeremy Hunt is/was a supporter of zero covid, and this pillock could be our next PM! A dangerous little man

The Chinese government are bar stewards of the worst order. This is absolutely criminally insane. The entire Chinese government should be locked up in the desert, maybe in the same facilities they locked up thousands of Uighurs in. Where is the worldwide condemnation? Oh yes, I forgot, there isn’t any because our corrupt, imbecilic and evil governments are probably planning something similar, out of China’s playbook, at some point in the future. Well, I’m not playing their games any longer and I would rather die than submit to these evil monsters and live in their dystopian world and I don’t think I’m alone.
“we don’t think its sustainable”
Is that all that man could say?oh treating people worse than Lab rats is ok if its sustainable then?
This if nothing else, this little sentence crystallises exactly the essence of the man and his fellows who work for the WHO and related industries. In other words as long as the stated objective is reached, no matter how ludicrous, no matter how inhuman and cruel are the actions taken to achieve that stupid objective then collateral damage and deaths do not matter, all that is important is that the Objective can be said to have been achieved.
These are not normal functioning humans if they were not working for the WHO they would probably be in prison for murder or other crimes, they are without human compassion or empathy and are completely unfettered by morals or ethics,
Thes are the people Boris Johnson and other world leaders are going to hand over the running of our country to, if the WHO decides there is a pandemic, the definition of which could be applied if they decree that Britain for example is suffering a pandemic of obesity.
How do you think they will solve that problem? The giving of a pound of flesh as in the Merchant of venice i would not hesitate to think would be one of their recommendations.
A statement lacking all empathy and compassion. This is the man, the puppet rather, that world government’s are giving their power to. The Pandemic Treaty must be resisted at all costs because people like this, acting on Gates’ direction, will have more power than they ever dreamed of.
This is an example of a streak of fanatical zeal in the Chinese nation that’s been seen before. During the cultural revolution and all the other inflicted madness by that utter madmen’s madman Mao, there was, I believe, a famine and they blamed the birds for eating all the seeds so they set to killing birds in their millions, little realising that the insects lost their number one predator and burgeoned like crazy. The Chinese have long followed whatever madman or madwoman has been the strongest and most ruthless and apart from the Tiananmen Square uprising (which has been all but erased from ALL the history books) they meekly obey as if brainwashed. I know this is a very sweeping statement because there are plenty of Chinese people who are not like this but in the main it is true. China is Orwell’s 1984 in action. Our Western governments probably like to think they can do similarly over here but forget there is more revolutionary spirit (hopefully to be re-ignited) in these lands.
BBC is the LAST place I would look for any information about ANYTHING. They have proved themselves unworthy of anyone’s trust. Surely there other reliable news sources. Please stop giving this corrupt gov’t and the unre
The UK needs a general election once every 2 years and a system for the right to a referendum. To stop the government overreach
The way we are governed needs a complete overhaul. MPs these days seem to be unaccountable and forget they are the public servants, not the other way round. I would like to see MPs limited to maybe one or two terms in parliament and for a wider range of people to become eligible. I would also like to see the break-up of the party system and the business of lobbying and money in politics made illegal with huge fines for breaking the rules. We have to root out the corruption. I would also do the same with the civil service but would retain those who demonstrate integrity, honesty, etc. I wouldn’t want any fanatics in there. Anyone seeking power needs to be assessed by independents and those assessing them need to be chosen or voted for by the public if possible. Some of that is probably impossible but something needs to happen as we can’t go on like this. Maybe stop the FPTP system is a start.
full protection by the vaccination?
what protection?
