BBC: Coronavirus: Where are the global hotspots?
Coronavirus is continuing its spread across the world, with nearly 30 million confirmed cases in 188 countries and a death toll fast approaching one million.
Six months after the World Health Organization (WHO) declared it a pandemic, the virus is surging in many countries and some that had apparent success in suppressing initial outbreaks are also seeing infections rise again.
The number of confirmed cases during the spring peak is likely to be an underestimate of the true level of infection, as widespread testing was not available in many countries earlier in the year.

Who cares about the pandemic or how many people died or if China attacked us with a biological weapon... please, WNU, post something about critical gender and race studies would you? :))
"Who cares about the pandemic or how many people died or if China attacked us with a biological weapon..." We have just endured one of the most brutal economic shutdowns in the world in order to try and contain this virus. The collateral damage from these actions will easily reverberate for decades. At a minimum, this has very likely caused the loss of the dollar as the world reserve currency which is really about the only thing left that makes the United States even remotely relevant as a a major world power. Unless this thing is on par with the black death which seems VERY unlikely at this point the collateral damage from trying to contain the virus will far exceed anything the virus ever could have done.
In my considered opinion the only way these actions could possibly be justified is if this thing is a bioweapon and the normal methods of fighting simply don't apply and it could be demonstrated that these methods won't work. Yet Fauci who oversaw these policies and made sure they got implemented tells us this is not a bioweapon. In this case, he has admitted to a crime against the American people for lives destroyed for no good reason. Now, if it is a bioweapon, he would still need to make the case for why such extraordinary measures would be justified. Bioweapon or not the human immune system has been dealing with pathogens for a very, very long time and would eventually be able to handle it.
Once properly investigated, if learned this is a bioweapon, perhaps his murderous actions will not result in prison time. In this case, he's been telling us it is a naturally occurring virus that escaped from a lab. This would mean he lied to the American people by understating the threat of the virus. We just raked president Trump over the proverbial coals for allegedly doing this. Would we then rake cult leader Fauci over these same coals? I think not.
Now we need to keep the fear going. What to do? Recently some information leaked out from a Chinese dissident who allegedly has expertise that this was a manmade virus. Then the information gets promptly censored. I think it highly likely that they don't want us to know the truth but they want to hold open the possibility of a bioweapon in the minds of the American people. This protects cult leader Fauci and it provides justification to implement more Draconian economic shutdowns should certain officials desire to do so. Having surveyed the damage caused by their shutdown policies and seeing it nothing to contain a virus that they told us it was supposed to do many of these officials want to try it again!!
As I have said before, if it is bioweapon and they have reason to believe it is, THEY NEED TO TELL US!! If they did think it is a bioweapon, then POTUS would almost certainly know and he would have told us as there is no upside to him not telling us something like this along with much downside risks. Maybe they could keep this from him.
In the coming weeks, with goal of stoking fear they may want to try and hold open the possibility of a bioweapon while not allowing outside sources to actually investigate but to do so places both the reputations of cult leader Fauci and China at risk. Both of these have been treated with kid glove treatment by the media and, in the case of Fauci, it borders on worship.
Fauci like any wanna be tyrant craves the power. This one is not going to give up his new found power without a fight. At least this is my take on this man. To people such as these it doesn't matter how many innocents die.
