We are just a group of retired spooks that discuss things that you’ll not find anywhere else. It makes us unique. Take a look around. Learn a thing or two.
When confronted with different theories, scientists use a system of analysis to determine which theory has the most merit. This is a deductive reasoning process, and one that is used daily by engineers all over the globe. You look at all the theories, you provide weighed analysis and come up with the “best fit” theory for a given situation. Here, we will apply it to the COVID-19 coronavirus outbreak during the 2020 CNY new year.
Currently there are four theories on the origin and causes for the COVID-19 coronavirus. They are;
Natural. The virus sprung up naturally.
Bioweapon – The Chinese stole it from America (CIA narrative).
Bioweapon developed by China to kill Chinese (CIA narrative).
Bioweapon used by the Trump Administration to suppress China.
You will note that of the four theories, two of them are from the American CIA. Both of those two theories originated from Radio Free Asia; a (former) CIA operation outsourced, but still run by, the head of the CIA.
... upon further examination of the sourcing for this serious claim,(That the Chinese biological lab in Wuhan released this bioweapon)...
... the first outlet to report on this claim was Radio Free Asia, the U.S.-government funded media outlet targeting Asian audiences that used to be run covertly by the CIA and named by the New York Times as a key part in the agency’s “worldwide propaganda network.”
Though it is no longer run directly by the CIA, it is now managed by the government-funded Broadcasting Board of Governors (BBG), which answers directly to Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, who was CIA director immediately prior to his current post at the head of the State Department.
In other words, Radio Free Asia and other BBG-managed media outlets are legal outlets for U.S. government propaganda.
(But why not the CIA directly?)
Notably, the long-standing ban on the domestic use of U.S. government propaganda on U.S. citizens was lifted in 2013, with the official justification of allowing the government to “effectively communicate in a credible way” and to better combat “al-Qaeda’s and other violent extremists’ influence.”

If you pay attention to the American media you will aware of the the first three theories. The fourth theory, the idea that the biological weapon was used as an on-going suppression as part of the Trump Trade War is noticeably absent.
Seeing that the American government controls all American media; [1] Mainstream, [2] Alt-Left and [3] Alt-Right, this omission should tell you (the reader) something.
The analysis
Below is a comparison matrix. Scientists, and engineers will recognize this table immediately. It is used all the time and is very helpful in determining the “price points” to set on new products, the comparative benefits and pitfalls of a given production decision, as well of the merits of an investment decision.
At the top of the table you can see the four theories presented. While on the left side you can see all the circumstances that contribute to the theories as presented.

Another Opinion
You all do not have to come to the same conclusion that I have. Other people have come to similar conclusions. Here’s one…
If the current state of global affairs reminds you of an over-the-top plot by a white-cat-stroking James Bond villain, you’re not far off. When it comes to nuclear policy, we are closer than ever to a real-life movie disaster.
- By Olivia Alperstein
America has a president that is currently using biological weapons against it’s economic foes instead of trying to make peace treaties. As well as deploying “low yield” nuclear weapons across the entire spectrum of the Armed Forces.
To me it seems like anything is possible with this President. And, that is quite scary.
Conclusion
A theory comparison matrix clearly shows that the circumstances supporting a biological weapon release by America…
… in support of the Trump Trade Wars…
… is by far (by a factor of three times) the most plausible theory regarding the origination of this event.
I take no great satisfaction in support of this conclusion. Instead, I am petrified by it. For it means that the Trump administration is actively using weapons of mass destruction against the civilians of a nuclear-armed nation and is not expecting any consequences for doing it.
Either the administration are idiots or they are evil. No other answer is possible.
I hope you are all ready to pay the price for this malfeasance.
Final note.
Oh, and by the way…
Fun Fact: China and Russia have been giving everyone smallpox vaccinations for decades now. While America stopped doing so in the early 1970’s.
When was the smallpox vaccine discontinued in the United States?
Because of vaccination programs and quarantine regulations, the risk of importation of smallpox into the United States was reduced by the 1960s. As a result, routine vaccine vaccination was discontinued in 1971.

The pictures and narrative took place in the time period from say 10FEB20 to 18FEB20. This was during the height or the peak of the “Wuhan Coronavirus COVID-19” event. The Chinese government treated this event as a biological attack, and the entire nation and military went into DEFCON ONE. I, as an expat, had to make a “visa run”. It was scheduled months before, and the deadline was rapidly approaching, so I left my apartment and ventured outside to experience the world around me.
Visa Run
But first, we need to explain what a “visa run” is.
Avisarunisashorttripoveraninternationalborderdesignedtoresetthevisaintheoriginatingcountryofthetrip. Manycountrieswhichhavevisa-freetravelorgrantvisasonarrivalhaveasetamountoftimethatyoucanbeinthecountry.
-What is a visa run?
Most nations are not like the United States, where you enter and you are not monitored or have to check in with the police or anything like that. I live in China, and I have to make periodic checks to both the Chinese customs, and the police stations to keep them aware of what I am doing and what I am up to.
My time for a visa run was fast approaching, so I made a visa run to Macao via the HK-China-Macao bridge. It was easy for me to do. The bridge is right in front of my house. So I took the bus, and one stop later, I was at Customs and Immigration.
Life during the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak
Well, the life is… boring.
Everyone stays inside of their house. They have food and groceries delivered, and watch a heck of a lot of movies. It’s terribly boring. Imagine being cooped up in your house.
And that goes double for the dog.
He doesn’t understand. He’s just sitting there crossing his legs and whimpering. He keeps looking at the door, and pleading with his eyes. But, nope. Sorry dog. You can bring in an unwelcome “visitor” very easily as you vacuum up every scent you can detect.
So, anyways…
I geared up and ventured forth outside of our place.
Gearing up
Well, the first thing is really simple. Aside my my clothes, I made sure that I wore an outside windbreaker that I could wash in the washing machine when I arrived home, and had a bottle of disinfectant to spray my clothes and shoes when I got back into the house.
Of course, I wore a mask and latex disposable gloves.
All set to go to the Customs office and renew my visa.
Some people wear a hat and then wash it with the clothes upon returning. But I figured that I would just wash my clothes upon arrival and take a full shower. Which I did.
Getting the Bus
Since I live so close to the HK-Macao-Zhuhai bridge, I just went to the bus stop and took a bus. It’s an easy ride, and almost all buses (with the exception of #99) goes to the main station near the Customs office.
That center is a massive mall / customs / transportation hub about the size of an airport. This was my first time visiting it, and while I had seen it from the outside for years, I had never ventured inside the complex.
Bus stop near my house. Takes you straight to the Customs / Immigration center complex.
There wasn’t too many people out and about. Firstly because I left at nine in the morning. But, of course, the big and real reason is simply because everyone is staying inside their homes, and not venturing out unless it is an absolute emergency.
View from the bus stop. You can see Macao across the bay. The buildings to the right are in downtown Zhuhai, known as the Gongbei district. The buildings to the left are the apartments, and casinos of Macao. At night they are really rather pretty and the lights of the “Sands” is clearly visible.
Here’s another view from the bus station. I like to call this road “Billionaires road” because the houses are all expensive, and large. Most people don’t need a five bedroom apartment with four bathrooms, and three rooms for maid’s quarters.
Bus station facing the apartments for the well-heeled.
Here’s another view of Macao. Mostly Zhuhai has excellent weather. This day trip was no exception, with temperatures in the low 70’s and sunny. There were a few people out. One or two jogging with face masks on…
The cleaning workers who attended to the trashcans, the sweeping of the sidewalks and the tending of the bushes. All of whom wore masks, gloves and protective attire. They were also busy disinfecting everything multiple times.
China does not have a Welfare Program like the United States has.
If you want a hand-out you need to beg for it. The government will give you "Jack Shit". However, they will offer you work. Anyone who is willing to work can get a job, a small paycheck, a roof over their heads in a small barracks and three meals a day.
The work that is provided is most the janitorial and gardening type, of which you can see in the early mornings.
Another view of Macao.
At the Customs
Now I am not permitted to take pictures and photos inside the Customs complex, but let me tell you that it is enormous. It is, like many of the Chinese public works; new, clean, modern, and well maintained.
It is built and designed to be the transportation hub for the Zhuhai – HK – Macao nexus and it’s size belays that fact. It is part customs complex, part mall, and part airport / bus and ferry center. It’s enormous, and I was a little taken aback by the size and scope of it.
Now, do not get the wrong impression.
The regular customs office in Gongbei is also enormous. And it is full of people and much used. But I figured that I would take a spin at this new complex for two reasons…
One, it’s next door to where I live.
Two, the bus to Gongbei (#99) is not available due to the COVID-19 out-break.
So after getting lost and finding my way, I made it into the complex and it was empty!
You see, the buses from HK to Macao has stopped because of this Coronavirus event. That that represents the bulk of the passenger traffic to the customs complex.
So of the thirty entry stations, only one was open, and there were only four people in front of me. Amazing!
Inside of the Macao-HK-Zhuhai customs complex.
Things went well.
People were nice and polite as they always are. They don’t growl at you like the American customs officers in Chicago do. Nor will they pull you aside for “special screening”. They asked me what I intended to do in Macao and I told them that I was just making a visa run. They said “Oh, ok”, and let me go on my merry way.
The layout was very convenient.
The Macao customs officer was sitting right next to the Chinese customs officer. You took two steps and were processed immediately.
They didn’t have the customs robots that I was used to working with. But it really didn’t matter to me. That novelty wore off a year or so ago. I was just happy to talk to a real person. Though they did do a bio-metric scan of my face and left palm print. Which is pretty normal.
The only thing out of the ordinary were the four health check stations that I had to go through.
Leave China.
Enter Macao.
Leave Macao.
Enter China.
But these weren’t really a hassle. I just filled out a form and got my temperature measured at my forehead, my wrist and scanned by thermal body imaging.
Leaving the Complex and back into China.
Because of the coronavirus (COVID-19) almost all of the stores, the shops and the restaurants were all closed. It was just like being in a large airport early in the morning before anything opened up. It was quiet and spacious and lonely. The only things moving about were the cleaning ladies, the observation drones, and the mobile police robots.
The police robots were just these big white Segway robot thingys. They were going up and down the boulevards and hallways announcing the situation and imploring people to be extra clean, not to touch surfaces and if you feel ill to report that to an attendant immediately.
Leaving the customs complex. It was all quiet and deserted as all foot and pedestrian traffic was on hold during the emergency.
Arrival Home
All in all, the entire event took under an hour. This is perhaps a world record! Sometimes it would take me a full half a day to complete the customs system. You might get behind a tour bus and have to spend hours waiting in line. But today the event was smooth and easy.
I hopped on the bus and a few minutes later I was back home.
Leaving the bus station and heading back to the house. I took this picture crossing the street from the bus station, and you can see the enormous HK-Macao-Zhuhai bridge in the background.
Of course, there are these big red banners telling everyone to be extra careful. To stay inside. To avoid other people and if sick tell the authorities. It warns about intentionally spreading the virus, and speaks of being a unified nation fighting the virus emergency together.
Warning banner on one of the fences. These banners are everywhere.
Eventually I was able to enter my complex. I passed the complex guards who opened up the gate for me, took my temperature and registered my time in their login clipboard and police APP on the phone.
Of course, my apartment complex consists of various buildings and each building requires an electronic FOB or pass-code to unlock the doors. On the doors are the government notices about the emergency and a quick QR code to immediately contact the police for help and assistance.
Front door to my building. Note the coronavirus notice proudly displayed on the doors.
Registering with Police
But wait!
I’m not done.
You see, I still must tell the police that I exited China, and returned. I do this for every visa run. So I needed to take a hop over to the local police office and register into my database.
Grab a bus to the police station. So I went to the bus station and grabbed a bus. The police station is only a few stops away, and so I grabbed a bus and rode it to the nearby police station.
There’s only a few people on the bus.
When the bus arrived, a second employee came down and measured my forehead temperature. He made sure that I wore a mask. If I did not wear a mask, I would not be permitted onto the bus.
I also wore latex gloves. About half of the people wore gloves. Most were those very flimsy PE gloves that you use when you are eating messy foods like sloppy joes, or fried chicken. But I, have a supply of gloves, from some of my chemical businesses. So I am well equipped in that arena.
About three years ago, all the buses in Zhuhai were replaced with electric buses. They have been running without problem now for these last three years. They are really quiet and if you are not careful, they will sneak up on you and you might miss you bus.
I know, it’s happened to me more than once.
They normally play music, soft Chinese music either Chinese pop or Chinese traditional music, but the buses were quiet. No audio on any of the buses, and the few people on the buses were quiet. They all sat apart from each other and were afraid to touch anything.
Quiet bus ride, with quiet passengers. Riding on a quiet street. Most people were either inside, working remotely to their offices, or getting things fired up int he factories. Very few restaurants were open.
The television on the buses normally shows videos related to public safety and local news. Here the videos were all about the safety of Chinese citizens and steps that you must take to survive this emergency, and to contribute and participate in the health and well-being of the country.
Public announcement on the bus video monitors.
Arrival at the police station wasn’t a big deal. They were getting back from their lunch break and lunch nap. One officer came over and updated my records. I’m in the system, so he just updated the information and I was free to go. Maybe took me two minutes.
Then I went and walked a little bit. To stretch my legs and maybe grab a bite. I heard that both McDonalds and KFC remained open through this emergency, and I wanted to see if I could get myself a burger, fries and a coffee.
I could have taken a bike, they are everywhere. But I just felt like walking.
Walking down the street in Zhuhai.
Maybe the reports were wrong.
I did see some food delivery bicyclists riding about and delivering food. This was (yellow) Kangaroo, and (blue) Er-Le-Ma.
I didn’t see much going on.
Some decontamination trucks were spraying the roads and saturating the trees. These trucks were white. Not the military camouflage that you would expect. The Chinese, I guess, only feel the need to paint military vehicles in olive green colors if they will be used in battle-zones. For urban and civilian environments they tend to be either white or black.
It’s a cultural thing I guess.
View down the street. Some cars are out and about, but mostly things are awfully quiet.
Back to the house a second time
Well, nothing is going on. So I just took another bus and went home. Everyone is inside and factories are just opening up. Most of my factories are at about 60% staffing, and it’s a slow slog. Things won’t be back to normal until March.
Meanwhile we are still taking orders.
Some of our Australian and New Zealand clients want us to source alternative suppliers out of China, and we have. They are about 40% more expensive, take about 25% longer to make and have an unverified quality history.
The rest of the clients (those in Europe and Africa) are still placing healthy orders with us. In fact the orders out of Europe are on the increase. Especially for Germany and England.
Anyways, I got off the bus and started the walk home from the bus station.
Front of a nearby apartment complex.
But the signs are there, and very few critters are moving about. I did see a feral tabby cat. She just looked at me with my mask on my face. I guess that I must have looked strange to her.
I said hello, and went on my merry way. She then got up and slaundered in the opposite direction.
Another red banner.
Conclusion
This is just a narrative of my one trip outside my apartment during this biological weapons attack on China in January / February 2020. You don’t have to believe me that it is a biological weapons event. You can watch CNN and FOX and listen to what they say. But the Chinese government is treating it as a biological weapons event and that is all that matters.
SHTF is real, and preppers take note.
The reality, however, is not anything like you would expect. Its not a scene out of the “Walking Dead”, or some scene from “12 monkeys”. It’s something entirely different.
Anyways, this is what the REAL DEAL is like. It’s not the narrative that you might see in the American media. Whether it is FOX, CNN, or Alex Jones.
You all, be safe. Be happy and be healthy. Best Regards.

Perhaps the first thing that triggered my thoughts that the cronovirus attack in Wuhan was a biological weapon event was the suspicious timing of it…
… and the absolutely absurd complete shutdown of the 2020 CNY holiday.
Have you the reader ever heard of an entire nation canceling Christmas and ordering everyone to stay at home and not go out? It’s amazing, unique and horrifying.
Well…
…that’s what happened.
Of course, those in America and out West haven’t a clue as to what this means. Perhaps this graph will illustrate my point.
Plot of cronovirus infections over time overlayed with the yearly Chinese New Year mass migration.
This is a graph showing the trajectory when only a precious few people were infected.
Imagine what would have happened if the Chinese government would have not taken direct and immediate action.
What if…
Here’s what it looks like if they delayed action by two days, and all of China are having parties, drinking, eating and having fun with each other…
This scenario is what would have happened if China delayed going to DEFCON ONE by two days. The infection trajectory goes ballistic.
So, people, my argument is that there is no such thing as a coincidence.
This illness was intentionally timed to exert maximum damage on China.
If that is not bad enough…
… were China to delay their response by a mere two days, the nation would have been completely devastated and neutered by this illness.
What it is like.
This is what it is like…
Your read the news reports, and suddenly you aren’t feeling good. You report it to the 119 (9-1-1 emergency line) and an ambulance comes to pick you up.
My very first interview. I had it on 2-2-2020. How about that for a date, eh? It’s about what I experienced during the Wuhan coronavirus outbreak and my sleuthing on the entire box of puzzle pieces regarding the biological weapon attack.

This post is very top-heavy with videos that were taken at the start of the 2020 Chinese New Year at the same time that the Coronavirus outbreak. As I post this, all the roads have roadblocks and police in hazmat suits are performing 100% checks for the illness. It’s a frightening and terrifying time.
At the time that this is posted, you are twice as likely to die from this illness than to recover from it.
At the time that this is posted, you are twice as likely to die from this illness than to recover from it.
Everyone is terrified of this. We have seen videos of people collapsing and all sorts of bad things with this virus. It is very dangerous, and extremely lethal.
Luckily, the Chinese government has stepped in and has taken proactive and rapid action. It is really quite astounding what they have put in place. I dare say that America could never begin to match this kind of response. Already, there is a change in the trajectory of the vector of this most serious illness.
Here we have some videos that I have collected off from Chinese social media. They all tell a story.
Please kindly note that this post has multiple embedded videos. It is important to view them. If they fail to load, all you need to do is to reload your browser.
All roads are blocked. Everyone is staying home and all holiday festivities are shut down. No one is going out, having fun or being social in any way. Everyone is hiding inside their homes.
Roadblock
These roadblocks are everywhere. Not only in Wuhan. They are nation-wide. All cities have roadblocks, and there are police at all the train and bus stations, not to mention airports, bridges, ferries and all hubs of transport.
Most are manned by police and local government security agents. Further, housing has the private security that are naturally “deputized” as an arm of the local police and they are also conducting strong security checks and monitoring.
The military are also present. They, in their various forms, are helping in the control of population, the distribution of supplies and monitoring of traffic. Everything is all quite ordered. It’s all very organized.
Wuhan virus roadblock.
China is building two new complete hospitals in Wuhan to handle the emergency.
The first hospital is to be completed in ten days. The second will be completed shortly afterwards. These two, concrete and steel, full-capability hospitals will augment the tent-city military hospitals that are positioned in and around Wuhan.
The Chinese have mobilized and hospital equipment and gear are in route and there are no excuses. Truckloads, boat-loads, and plane-loads of supplies to equip these hospitals are in route and on the way to staff these new constructions.
Mobilized construction of a new Wuhan hospital.
A patient recovers
This is a particularly lethal virus. However, people can fight it naturally and recover. The ratio right now is that two people die for ever one that recovers. However, there is hope that a cure and inoculation can be developed quickly. In the meantime, the sick are told to fight it off. The old, the feeble and the sick cannot do so well, and thus they die.
In fact, one patient – a wealthy man in Wuhan, left the hospital and told the staff that he will not stay in the hospital to wait to die. So he took off and sped away. The police are right now trying to find him. The mere presence of him in a room with you will contaminate everyone around him. It’s like a scene from one of those horror / science fiction movies.
A patient recovers.
Hospital workers are working around the clock to contain the illness.
I have seen video after video of tied and passed out hospital workers. They are over-extended and many have been working for 72 hours straight with no breaks. Some, like this gal inject solutions to keep them going through this prolonged emergency.
Hospital workers keeping on the job.
Instruction videos are all over the internet on how to use and wear a mask.
You can expect this, but it’s pretty stunning. The workers, and the staff are taking it on themselves, on their personal accounts, to teach others how to hand this emergency. They are doing so as Rufus-style heroes and heroines. This is really wonderful, and for once, a good use for social media.
Here we have an instructional video on how to properly wear a face mask.
How to wear a face mask.
Individual towns are erecting roadblocks and stopping everyone from going in or out.
You know, it’s not just only the local governments that are placing roadblocks. The citizens and individuals within the rural communities and housing communities within the cities that are doing so as well. These small groups have set up these road blocks and are keeping everyone out of their communities.
Not everyone agrees with the government in staying home. Additionally, there are stubborn old people, poor people who are isolated and outside the major communication channels and just “hard-headed” fools that want to do their own thing.
No one is being permitted in or out of these communities. How do I know? I’ve got all my relatives locked inside at least three different communities.
Local community roadblock.
People are handing out free face masks.
Heroes come in different sizes and shapes. All the stores are sold out of face masks. But some people have supplies of them. You know, like factories, like clinics, like paint supply stores. The workers and the owners are then taking their stock and handing them out to others. It’s a kind gesture and a very important thing to do during this emergency.
Handing out free face-masks.
Police and militia are going up and down the streets telling everyone to stay inside.
Instead of fireworks exploding for hours on end, the streets are eerily quiet. Instead, troops of public service officials are marching up and down the streets with bullhorns. They are announcing people to stay inside their houses and not to go out. They are telling them to keep clean and avoid crowds. They are doing this because all taxi, DD, public transportation and buses are shut down.
These are the “town criers” for people who are not tech-savvy and monitoring the radio, the television, the internet, and the social media.
Town criers announcing to stay inside the house.
Roadblock inspection on a major highway.
All of the traffic on the major highways are pulled over and go through inspection. They are monitoring everyone for fever and making sure that ill or sick people are not out and about.
This is the best that they can do, because (as we know now) the incubation period can be from 0 to 14 days, and the person will not be aware that they are sick, but they will be high contagious. So the best thing to do is to secure everyone inside their own individual homes and not be out and about.
Highway roadblock and inspection.
Hospitals are overflowing.
What do you do when a large percentage of a city of 14 million people are sick? The hospitals are overcrowded, and the staff overworked.
Luckily the Chinese military has stepped in and they have clinics in tent cities all over Wuhan. Here, we have shipping container operating rooms, and other military systems used with great effect to help.
Here’s what it’s like. Can you imagine this in say New York City or Chicago?
Hospitals are over-flowing.
Communities are taking matters into their own hands.
Some communities will not take no for an answer, and they have established local militia to guard the communities to keep them in quarantine. These militias are quite different from American militias. Where you would find people toting AR-15, and AK-47 semi-automatic rifles and shotguns, wearing camouflage clothing, and wearing Alice-harnesses. In China, they would wear something very visible to identify themselves as militia, and they would be armed with very sharp and lethal cutlery. And, please, make no mistake… they know how to use them.
Local militia in China.
Special equipment and care must be taken.
This novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV), is so lethal and so contagious that it strains the most commonly available hospital equipment. Workers must wear special bio-hazard suits to work with it and handle the patients.
The different levels of hazmat suits.
As a result, the Chinese government has all the manufacturers working overtime, 24-7, non-stop to make new suits, new masks, new respiratory systems, and rapidly produce more medical supplies. There are tons of videos of workers making these articles of clothing, face masks and other medical and emergency gear.
Now, rather than post those videos, here’s a video showing just the kind of special gear that the hospitals need to utilize to fight this viral agent.
Hospital staff in full protection gear.
Hospitals must equip their staff with gear that is classified as Biosafety level four. This is the kind of gear that hospital workers require to use at this time.
What are Biosafety Levels (BSLs)?
There are four biosafety levels. Each level has specific controls for containment of microbes and biological agents. The primary risks that determine levels of containment are infectivity, severity of disease, transmissibility, and the nature of the work conducted. Origin of the microbe, or the agent in question, and the route of exposure are also important.
-CDC
“BSL-4 builds upon the containment requirements of BSL-3 and is the highest level of biological safety. There are a small number of BSL-4 labs in the United States and around the world. The microbes in a BSL-4 lab are dangerous and exotic, posing a high risk of aerosol-transmitted infections. Infections caused by these microbes are frequently fatal and without treatment or vaccines. Two examples of microbes worked with in a BSL-4 laboratory include Ebola and Marburg viruses. “
Biosafety level four. This is the kind of gear that hospital workers require to use at this time.
Military are mobilized.
Not well reported outside of China, is the fact that the Chinese have fully mobilized their military.
They are not only treating this emergency as a precursor to a pandemic. But, and note-worthy, they are treating it as a WMD… a biological attack and have mobilized their entire military force to contain it.
Biological warfare (BW)—also known as germ warfare—is the use of biological toxins or infectious agents such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi with the intent to kill or incapacitate humans, animals or plants as an act of war. Biological weapons (often termed "bio-weapons", "biological threat agents", or "bio-agents") are living organisms or replicating entities (viruses, which are not universally considered "alive") that reproduce or replicate within their host victims. Entomological (insect) warfare is also considered a type of biological weapon. This type of warfare is distinct from nuclear warfare and chemical warfare, which together with biological warfare make up NBC, the military initialism for nuclear, biological, and chemical warfare using weapons of mass destruction (WMDs). None of these are considered conventional weapons, which are deployed primarily for their explosive, kinetic, or incendiary potential.
- Wikipedia
Medical Staff are divided into “task groups” all lead by a viral specialist.
The Chinese have organized trained experts in both viral agents, and biological warfare. These are health professionals that have been dispatched to all the hospitals in all of the cities. They are the experts that will guide and lead the individual hospitals through this emergency. They know what to do, how to handle things, and the proper actions to take.
Experts arrive at a hospital.
Airplane scanning of passengers.
Of course you are constantly being scanned to see if you have a fever or are showing any sign of contamination by this viral agent. Here is a video of some staff checking the patients on board a plane.
That’s about it for now. I’ll post more videos when I get a moment. Please allow these videos to download. They are certainly interesting and provides you with a better idea of what is going on in China, compared to what CNN and FOX can provide.

Just two months before the Wuhan outbreak, a “high-level pandemic exercise” entitled “Event 201” was held in New York City.
On October 18th the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security, in conjunction with the World Economic Forum and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, brought together “15 leaders of business, government, and public health” to simulate a scenario in which a coronavirus pandemic was ravaging the planet.
The current coronavirus outbreak that originated in China did not begin until December, and so at that time it was supposedly just a hypothetical exercise.
The Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security in partnership with the World Economic Forum and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation hosted Event 201, a high-level pandemic exercise on October 18, 2019, in New York, NY. The exercise illustrated areas where public/private partnerships will be necessary during the response to a severe pandemic in order to diminish large-scale economic and societal consequences.
I find it quite interesting that the Bill & Melinda Gates
Foundation was involved, because they are also financial backers of the
institute that was granted a U.S. patent for “an attenuated coronavirus” in November 2018.
It appears that the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation has been
quite interested in the threat posed by coronaviruses for quite some
time.
Event 201
Eric Toner, a researcher at the Johns Hopkins Center for Health
Security, spearheaded putting “Event 201” together. In his scenario, a
coronavirus outbreak had begun on Brazil’s pig farms…
Toner’s simulation imagined a fictional virus called CAPS. The analysis, part of a collaboration with the World Economic Forum and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, looked at what would happen if a pandemic originated in Brazil’s pig farms.
Even though the outbreak was quite limited at first, Toner’s scenario ultimately showed that a coronavirus pandemic could kill 65 million people…
The pretend outbreak started small: Farmers began coming down with symptoms that resembled the flu or pneumonia.
From there, the virus spread to crowded and impoverished urban neighborhoods in South America.
Flights were canceled, and travel bookings dipped by 45%.
People disseminated false information on social media.
After six months, the virus had spread around the globe.
A year later, it had killed 65 million people.
Let us certainly hope that this current outbreak does not evolve into that sort of a nightmare.
A horror of a nightmare.

According to Reuters, there are now more than 800 confirmed cases, and the death toll has shot up to 25…
China confirmed 830 cases of patients infected with the new coronavirus as of Jan. 23, while the death toll from the virus has risen to 25, the National Health Commission said on Friday.
Wuhan death.
People! This is not your average “everyday” flu or bug. This virus is a killer. It strikes hard and fast, and within minutes. Here is an actual video of one of the fellows that it killed. Video is pulled from the surveillance cameras.
It’s a horror!
This guy actually died. He was one of the first confirmed deaths.
But many are skeptical that the official figures are accurate. Because the images coming out of Wuhan are extremely alarming…
Disturbing images of Wuhan residents dropping unresponsive to the floor have emerged on Instagram following the diseased Chinese city’s coronavirus lockdown.
Wuhan has been branded a “zombieland” by frantic locals after Chinese authorities told residents they are not allowed to leave yesterday morning.
Pictures from inside the city paint an apocalyptic picture as medics patrol in hazmat suits and gas masks.
Over the past 48 hours, numerous videos have been posted on social
media that supposedly show violently sick people that have literally
collapsed in the streets of Wuhan. Here is just one example.
If people are literally dropping where they stand, that would seem to
indicate that we aren’t being told the full truth about this virus.
It affects everyone. In all walks of life.
Chinese authorities are trying to keep everyone calm, but they are
definitely treating this like it is no ordinary outbreak. For example,
one airline passenger that was suspected of having the virus was
actually “wheeled out of an airport in a quarantine box”…
Footage has emerged showing an airline passenger with suspected SARS-like coronavirus being wheeled out of an airport in a quarantine box.
The man inside the box is wearing a protective suit, a mask and gloves after he reportedly showed possible symptoms, including a fever, during screening and was isolated from other travelers.
The box is surrounded by staff wearing blue masks as it is wheeled to a waiting ambulance outside a terminal at the airport in Fuzhou in south-eastern China.
Wuhan death.
The whole world was stunned when it was announced that the entire
city of Wuhan would be facing a quarantine, but now seven other Chinese
cities are also being locked down.

In addition, big cities all over China are canceling festivities for the upcoming Lunar New Year holiday…
Major Chinese cities, including Beijing and quarantine-blocked Wuhan, banned all large gatherings over the coming Lunar New Year festival, the most important holiday on the Chinese calendar, in an expanding effort to contain a rapidly spreading coronavirus outbreak.
The announcement Thursday came as authorities expanded travel restrictions imposed on Wuhan to surrounding municipalities, shutting down travel networks and attempting to quarantine about 25 million people – more than the population of Florida.
Wuhan death.
We have never seen anything like this before in the entire modern history of China.
Profound steps are being taken.
Would Chinese officials really take such dramatic measures if the threat was not real?
“We don’t want the American public to be worried about this because their risk is low,” says Anthony Fauci, head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. “On the other hand, we are taking this very seriously and are dealing very closely with Chinese authorities.”
-American Center for Disease Control
Hopefully they are correct, and hopefully this outbreak will blow over sooner rather than later.
Hospitals are being overwhelmed and already one of the doctors has died.
But a virologist that played a key role in identifying SARS in 2003 insists that what we have seen so far is just the beginning…
“A bigger outbreak is certain,” said Guan Yi, a virologist who helped identify severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) in 2003. He estimated – “conservatively,” he said – that this outbreak could be 10 times bigger than the SARS epidemic because that virus was transmitted by only a few “super spreaders” in a more defined part of the country.
“We have passed through the ‘golden period’ for prevention and control,” he told Caixin magazine from self-imposed quarantine after visiting Wuhan. “What’s more, we’ve got the holiday traffic rush and a dereliction of duty from certain officials.”
I am petrified.
And if that wasn’t enough to send a chill down your spine, just check out what else he had to say…
“I’ve seen it all: bird flu, SARS, influenza A, swine fever and the rest. But the Wuhan pneumonia makes me feel extremely powerless,” he told Caixin. “Most of the past epidemics were controllable, but this time, I’m petrified.”
Wuhan death.
The next week or two will be an absolutely critical time.
If authorities are able to stop the number of cases from rising at an
exponential rate, and if there are able to keep it mostly confined to
just a few areas of China, we may have a chance to prevent a global
pandemic.
But if not, we may be facing a worst case scenario.
And according to “Event 201”, a worst case scenario could potentially mean tens of millions of dead people.
