2 Due to unpaid wages, health workers are violating basic safety protocols and allowing grieving families to touch the bodies of relatives who died from the virus, thereby facilitating the spread of the disease

Explain how one leads to another?

4 It seems "the end is near" again, and again. We all ate pizza at midnight in 1999. Y2K came and went and so will everything else. Impending doom, where art though ?

5 With the ability for a person to reach any major city on earth in less 24 hrs with a Lab grown and modifided virus (Bio-Warfare). Maybe it is time to start thinking about bringing back International & Immigrantion quarantine holds until health inspected.

Which would mean secure borders - OH! which the Liberals, Socialists & Democrats would fight.

6 But, did anyone come from Wuhan?

7 QUESTION: Did anyone come from Wuhan?
All it would have taken, was one C-19 infected item overnighted via FEDx to a person in a given area. Or person traveling Internationally..

In our (USA) case, The Semi-Office COVID-19 Patient Zero arrived in the US on 21 January 2020. He arrived at Seattle Int Airport in Washington state.
He had traveled to Wuhan, China days before. He tested positive. Think of the hundereds of people he breathed around.

PLUS
There were 2 female travelers that initially were thought to be FLU infected and deaths in Dec. 2019. But after updated accurate testing, not CDC's lame test, results showed Covid was the likely cause of death.

Where they Chinese or tourists, or a maybe planned infected carriers?
We'll never know for sure. Because all the Health Records and Doctor notes were ceased by the FBI.

8 All it would have taken ...

9 Italy was also an early hotspot with thousands of Chinese travelers during Christmas vacation 2019 (a time that the Chinese like to go there, apparently).

From there, on to the European continent.

10 So, Chinese go to Italian food for Christmas? *mind blown*

11 I understand there is also a significant Chinese population in the clothing manufacturing in Italy. Cheap, know the job, and the brand can put Made in Italy on the bag whatever and charge premium prices.

Reminds me of the joke:
Why don't the Chinese children celebrate Santa Claus? Because they make the toys.
