Politics China, possibly the biggest cover-up in World History

Nice to meet you sir. I don't think we have met.

If you are talking about that dumb dog, he is probably humping the leg of your couch and eating my poop somewhere.

The report I shared shows a spike only in the meat packing plant. No reports in spikes outside that plant. So with that report, mitigation quite possibly wouldn’t be a factor, since it’s an essential business.

 

Swine flu

 

Possibly right. So you think mitigation would of stopped the spread?

 

that meat plant was/is a hot spot. The impact on the community will be seen later this month. There will definitely be residual infections in 10-14 days

South Dakota is already showing that their curve is pretty high for a sparsely populated state; compare Oregon and South Dakota:





I'd guess if we look at that graph in a week, SD will be headed in a worse direction than it is now

 

I’ll concede if the pace is higher in a week or two.

 

remind me...I saved the image of the graph today. I'll be curious what it looks like by next Thursday of Friday. A cluster of 650 cases in a City of 181,000 seems to be pretty big

 

Done

 

There shouldn't be any.

 

Yep, there shouldn’t. Just like there shouldn’t be communist flags at pro/democrat protests or rally. Agree?

 

Take away the right to wave a flag, then you have to take away many freedoms. Just sayin. The offset to our freedoms are having to deal with porn and racism, etc.

So which freedoms do you want to deny the American public in order to make sure there aren't any flags waved that some don't approve of?

 

Honestly, I've never seen any at a Democratic rally, ever.

 

Then I guess it doesn’t apply to you.

Africans In China are Being Evicted from Their Homes and Blamed for Spreading Coronavirus
Footage of Africans sleeping on the streets of Guangzhou has caused outrage online. Now, African governments are putting pressure on Beijing to take action.

Fears of a second wave of coronavirus in China have led to widespread racism and xenophobia against African populations. Reports of Africans being forced out of their homes in Guangzhou, China have caused fear amongst its African community and backlash across social media.

As China faces more cases of the novel coronavirus, much of the blame has been placed on foreign nationals who are being accused of importing new cases into the country. Guangzhou, nicknamed "Little Africa," has the highest population of African immigrants—largely from Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana and Uganda—who have long been a target of racial discrimination. Tensions further escalated over the weekend when Chinese state media reported that five Nigerians had contracted the virus and passed it onto a local restaurant owner.






According to CNN, various businesses began denying services to African foreign nationals and several were evicted from their homes in the Southern Chinese city—despite many having no confirmed contact with the virus or recent travel history. Images and video footage, showing Africans being forcefully displaced and sleeping outside with their luggage, has warranted angry responses on social media, with people denouncing the widespread mistreatment of Black people in the country.


In response several African diplomatic leaders from Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya and Uganda, as well as the African Union have called on Beijing to take urgent action against the abuse of African residents. Media reports have slammed the Chinese government and according to a report from CNN, China—which has a major economic presence across Africa—faces a growing "diplomatic crisis" due to the outrage caused by the disregard shown for Africans.

China’s Aggressive Diplomacy Weakens Xi Jinping’s Global Standing
In the past week officials in France, Britain and nearly two dozen African nations have rebuked actions or statements by the Chinese government.

China’s top leader, Xi Jinping, has used the coronavirus pandemicto shore up his political power at home, but the tools the Communist Party has exploited to do this are threatening China’s international standing.

China has demanded fealty and praise of Mr. Xi’s handling of the pandemic as a price for the country’s provision of medical supplies and expertise. It has accused Western countries of failing to protect their people, unleashing vitriol usually preserved for domestic audiences on the world, provoking anger.

In the past weekofficials in France, Britain and nearly two dozen African nations have rebuked actions or statements by the Chinese government. Mr. Xi’s government has now been accused of hypocrisy and hubris, for obfuscating the origins of the coronavirus and for portraying Western governments as ineffectual compared to China’s own response.

The state’s efforts to bolster Mr. Xi’s standing at home are undercutting any good will that China had generated by sending experts and medical supplies to countries on the newest front lines of the pandemic.

“There’s no doubt: We can’t have business as usual after this crisis, and we’ll have to ask the hard questions about how it came about and about how it could’ve been stopped earlier,” Britain’s foreign minister, Dominic Raab, said on Thursday.

The lasting effect on Mr. Xi’s global ambitions could be profound. China’s relationship with the United States has already cratered, despite a rhetorical truce reached between Mr. Xi and President Trump. Now there is evidence the pandemic is forcing other countries to rethink relations.

Japan has pledged $2 billion to help companies move their production out of China because of concerns about the country’s reliability. President Emmanuel Macron of France questioned whether China’s response was a model for democracies to follow, disputing the narrative Mr. Xi’s acolytes have tried to spin. “Let’s not be so naïve as to say it’s been much better at handling this,” he said in an interview with The Financial Times.

China’s state media portray Mr. Xi as a steady, forceful and yet benevolent leader who has guided the country through a “people’s war” against the pandemic. The increasingly combative, nationalist tone of his diplomats, though, has stirred hostility.

 

Nothing in his statements aren't true to what they were told. That will only validate that China was covering things up. You think Xi would be telling the Administration the truth if they weren't?
