China has announced that COVID-19 will officially be downgraded from a pneumonia to a viral infection from January 8, meaning there will no longer be any controls or restrictions whatsoever. That means the borders will reopen, and China will resume issuing student and tourism visas for foreigners wishing to visit. But should you come? And is there a catch?
Today I’ll try to answer all your questions.
An interpretation:
The Chinese ruling councils have concluded that - even if ‘covid’ is real, and was indeed an attempted bioweapon attack by the US - it’s turned out to be a damp squib: No mass deaths, and no great societal disruption, beyond what a heavily-over-cautious response caused.
In fact, it seems to have been pretty much about like what’s happening right now in the Northern Hemisphere: the usual Winter cold/flu wave, exacerbated - as usual - in places like China by the horrendous air pollution; which - surprise, surprise - beats up vulnerable lungs; ‘respiratory diseases’ meaning shit and corruption in the airways. The clue is in the adjective ‘respiratory’: breathe this stuff constantly, and it’s likely to screw you up if you’re at all under par.
If it turns out that there IS no covid ‘virus’, and - more disruptively still - there are no such things as ‘viruses’ per se, then buggering about goffing tiny things, based on false assumptions as to their precise nature, is going to be about as ‘successful’ as trying to extract sunbeams from cucumbers. (An early gulliverian version of biomass as energy source; also with a negative EROEI…

Seriously, though: what I think we’re seeing is the usual Winter cough, groo, and sniffle season, as normal; but still fooling enough of the still-entranced people to believe the rearguard action that the covid-swindle pushers are still fighting with their dwindling cov-prop; into which ever fewer of us are continuing to buy… Like this guy in the vid saying that he’s “battling covid” when he means he’s got flu.
The Bellenders have been muttering about trying another ‘pandemic’ scam soon. Watch out for Gates re-appearing, with new alarums…
A ‘viral infection’ means an illness that doctors already know how to treat with life-saving help, where needed. So: no more idiotic restrictions on the well tried and tested relieving treatments. And having a good strong terrain is still the first line of prevention. (I’ve been tickled by the odd cold bug this Winter, as usual; but - as usual - no illness in this vitC-soaked body. )
… but, right on cue, countries (led by U$A) are denying entry to travellers from China unless they submit to tests/prove vaccination/show a selfie of them rioting against lockdowns . . .
