The Fake News Complex and the Coronavirus... An Exercise in Deceit

in #palnet5 years ago

(From DC Dirty Laundry- see link below)

Most of the fake news that we're constantly bombarded with centers around social and cultural issues that have more to do with opinions than actual facts and on the surface at least have very little ramifications in the "real world," things that concern everyday people and the things important to them in their lives. The delusion that there are 72 genders, for example, only matter to people concerned that gender nonconforming intersex androgens make make more than non-binary pangender FTM transfeminine neutros. However in the real world there are issues where facts and truths presented in a unbiased way can prove to be a matter of life and death. The outbreak of the Coronavirus is one of these issues... particularly if the numbers generated by the recent simulation are anywhere near accurate. This is a situation that conjures up an actual scenario where that favorite trope of the left- that words kill- actually mean something.

The mainstream media downplaying the potential dangers of a potential pandemic causes one to pause and wonder why. In the course of the last week the narrative has shifted from "it isn't easily spread" to "it's spread by coughing." The truth is: " it is EASILY transmissible via ANY bodily fluids and through the mucous membranes. In other words, HIGHLY CONTAGIOUS and deadly."

 Almost every news outlet has a persistent case of TDS, Trump Derangement Syndrome. Orange Man Bad, Russian Collusion, Quid Pro Quo… the list goes on. Lamestream News is about ratings now. Clicks to get ad revenue. Emotion over facts.Most of the time, this is just a nuisance to be avoided. A smart person can extract enough useful information from the hyped up stories and fear mongering to at least know what is going on in the world. Read between the lines. If you ignore the climate change BS, you can see that there are fires in Australia. Ignore the made up charges against POTUS and you can figure out that he is being impeached. 

But this is different- human lives are at stake. " Tomorrow, more people will be dead. However, nobody is going to tell you how many are ACTUALLY dead. You and I will have NO CONCEPT of how bad this thing is, until it is too late. The news we will receive will be filtered through governments first, many of which have a bad reputation for delivering facts."

Granted that the MSM depends on organizations such as the WHO, NIH and CDC for their information... but this would be an excellent time for journalists (if there are any left) to practice some good old fashioned journalism and do some extensive probing instead of acting as a conduit for the "official narrative"- lives may depend on it. For example, the Coronavirus is a "stealth strain" carried by people that show no outward symptoms, "making detection almost impossible under the current guidelines."

  Coronavirus is spreading among people who show non-respiratory symptoms. This means detection of the carriers of the virus is going to be extremely difficult, given that nearly all health officials around the world are looking for respiratory symptoms such as coughing, sneezing and breathing difficulties. Some carriers of this rapidly spreading strain of coronavirus show no fever and no coughing, but instead are exhibiting symptoms of diarrhea, vomiting and chest pains. 

In other words the symptoms are not consistent- there in fact may be more strains with symptoms mimicking other viruses and/or diseases. This makes detection virtually impossible, but that isn't being reported by the MSM who's trying to downplay the potential threat.

 “Thus far, official guidance on the symptoms of the Wuhan virus has been limited to fever and symptoms of respiratory illness, such as coughing, difficulty breathing or shortness of breath,” reports The Epoch Times:

However, according to local media a report by doctors and experts from Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University on Friday noted the appearance of initial symptoms not related to the respiratory system. 

 As we expected, the CDC and local health officials are refusing to release the names of the hospitals in which these coronavirus-infected patients are being treated and quarantined. The secrecy has begun.  What Americans need to know is that this coronavirus situation is far worse than what’s being reported by the controlled media, and that carriers are going to slip past even the best detection methods, because those methods are all based on looking for fevers and respiratory problems. 

How much can we depend on the Chinese to give us accurate information in light of the fact that this is a manufactured virus that likely "escaped" from a Chinese biowarfare lab. According to the Chinese government-controlled media "there are more than 900 confirmed cases of coronavirus around the world. Of those confirmed cases, 26 people have died." Yet conflicting reports say that:

 It’s being reported that many people with potential coronavirus symptoms are being turned away from hospitals in China because there are no beds. Due to censorship and a brutal Communist regime, most of the less-than-flattering information is being shared anonymously. 

Moreover, the Chinese are rapidly building hospitals to take care of the overflow showing that they expect this to be a long-term problem. " Things are so worrisome that they’re building a hospital specifically for coronavirus in just 6 days in Wuhan."

 THE MAN  [a patient who asked not to be identified] SAID HE SAW PATIENTS AT THE RAMMED HOSPITAL ON THURSDAY FALLING TO THE GROUND “ONE AFTER ANOTHER,” BUT THERE WAS NO ROOM FOR MORE PATIENTS TO BE ADMITTED. VIDEOS POSTED TO SOCIAL MEDIA HAVE SHOWN PATIENTS LAYING ON THE FLOOR IN WUHAN HOSPITALS, SOME CRYING OUT FOR HELP. ONE, WHICH WAS REMOVED FROM CHINA’S POPULAR  TWITTER-LIKE PLATFORM WEIBO, PURPORTEDLY SHOWED DEAD BODIES COVERED WITH SHEETS ON THE FLOOR NEAR OTHER HOSPITAL PATIENTS. (SOURCE) 

This is a whole lot bigger than what's being reported by the MSM. It's understandable that no one wants to see a panic ensue, but warning the populace about a potential epidemic- or likely pandemic- should at least be warned enough to take precautions in the likely event of an outbreak in the US and elsewhere. "As of the publication of this post, there are confirmed cases in China, South Korea, Japan, Nepal, Thailand, Singapore, Vietnam, Macau, and the United States. Canada, Australia, the UK, and the US have people awaiting test results for suspected coronavirus." 

The numbers being provided across the board- from the Chinese press, the WHO, CDC, et.al. just don't add up. 

 If these reports are accurate, then the numbers we’ve been given are absolutely not accurate. If there are people collapsing in hallways who are not being treated or diagnosed, then it stands to reason that they’re not going to be included in the official numbers of how many people are sick with the coronavirus. 

Here are a few other issues that haven't been reported:

 
  • 35 million people are being restricted and/or quarantined.
  • Approximately 900 people are officially sick and 26 people are officially dead from the Wujan coronavirus.
  • That is an awful lot of people being quarantined and restricted for something with such a low death toll, don’t you think?
  • That’s a lot of people being quarantined for an illness that has been diagnosed in fewer than a thousand people, isn’t it?
  • This is costing China a ton of money in lost tourism revenue, entertainment revenue, and travel revenue, isn’t it?
  • Millions of people are out of work during this shutdown – those who work at tourist destinations, those in the transportation industry, those who can’t get to work.


It also looks like the Chinese (and other scientific experts) have been less than forthcoming about the nature of the virus itself. What do we know about the mutation potential? What do we actually know about the Coronavirus itself? 

 We are being told that the coronavirus outbreak which is currently escalating at an exponential rate probably started with a snake.  Perhaps that is true, but a lot of researchers are now pointing out some really odd “coincidences” regarding this outbreak.  For example, China’s very first biosafety-level-4 lab is located just 20 miles away from where this outbreak supposedly originated.  And a news report about this lab from a few years ago specifically stated that it would be “studying the pathogen that causes SARS”.  Of course SARS was caused by a coronavirus, and now a “new coronavirus” has been unleashed in the only Chinese city where coronavirus research was being conducted. 

"A new Coronavirus." How many Coronaviruses in fact are there? There are far more questions than answers and it doesn't look like anybody is being particularly forthcoming with those answers.  In an article by researcher and writer Michael Snyder he says:

 I will discuss this more later in the article, but first I want to talk about the very odd “coincidence” that a U.S. patent for “an attenuated coronavirus” was granted not too long ago.  As you can see right here, the patent was filed in July 2015 and it was granted in November 2018. (See link "What a Coincidence")

Attenuated means "having been reduced in force, effect, or value." If this is true of the Coronavirus the Wuhan outbreak should never have happened. As it turns out a patent was filed in 2015 and granted in 2018. 

 This patent was filed by the Pilbright Institute, and as Stefan Stanford has pointed out, some of the major backers of the Pilbright Institute include the World Health Organization, the European Commission, and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation

Bill Gates- no doubt the snake mentioned at the beginning of Snyder's article. There's something just not kosher about this whole scenario... it sounds a lot like Problem-Reaction-Solution to me. But this has been covered by a lot of other people and for more information on this particular issue I suggest reading Snyder's article. I want to keep my focus on what's not being reported ny the MSM.

One of things contributing to the rapid spread of the virus in China is a lack of sanitation. Coupled with the lack of knowledge about the virus itself could lead to dire consequences if and when it spreads to the US. One of the questions unanswered is how does the Coronavirus interact with other pathogens? Imagine the consequences that could arise from an infestation in a city like Los Angeles with a large homeless population already dealing with outbreaks of diseases such as Typhoid, Typhus and the other diseases carried by illegal aliens- many of which are proving immune to traditional treatment. How will the Coronavirus interact with these? Will they cause each other to mutate into something even more difficult to treat? These are questions that need answers and none seem to be on hand. According to Mike Adams (who in my opinion tends to get somewhat hyperbolic- yet is still an important fixture in the alt-media):

 The horrendously bad decisions of human beings who hold power in government, media and industry have brought the human race to a “perfect storm” of conditions that will strongly contribute to the spread and fatalities of the coronavirus pandemic now threatening the world. 

Here are a few of his concerns that may add to the ramifications of the Coronavirus outbreak when it hits America:

 #1) Open borders policies that allow infected people to walk right across the border into the United States, with no health screening whatsoever. 
 #3) The widespread practice of biosludge distribution onto food crops. “Biosludge” is the raw human sewage sludge that’s collected by every city in America, slightly dried to reduce water mass, then loaded onto trucks and dumped on nearby farm fields. It’s sold to farmers as “free fertilizer” because it’s rich in nitrogen. It also means that any coronavirus which makes its way into the sewage system will be distributed by U.S. cities onto farm fields, obviously contaminating food crops and multiplying the effects of the pandemic. (See the full documentary at Biosludged.com to learn about biosludge.) 
 #5) The practice — now common in filthy liberal cities — of allowing people to openly defecate in the streets, with no repercussions or arrests. Since viruses often infect human feces and other body excretions, this likely means that coronavirus will be found in the raw human feces that gets washed into storm drains during rain storms. The storm drains in San Francisco, Seattle and other coastal cities empty directly into the ocean, where viruses are then washed onto the beaches of North America, infecting beach goers and mixing with aquatic ecosystems to produce even more potentially dangerous variants of infectious disease. 
 #7) The compromised human immune system due to widespread vaccination practices that actually weaken, not strengthen, the veracity of the human immune response. People who routinely receive vaccinations such as flu shots are discovered to be more vulnerable to future infections. Widespread immunization practices across North America, Europe, Australia and other countries have created a highly vulnerable population that can be easily infected with coronavirus. 

Number 7 I believe should cause real concern. Vaccines already being administered from birth are causing havoc with the human auto-immune system. Factor in a real pathogen that neither nature or medicine are prepared to deal with and there's a real recipe for disaster. There are links to Adams' article along with the others below- I'm skimming the surface in my post. There are two more issues I want to bring into focus before ending. One is "the numbers." Specifically the exponential possibilities (probabilities?) of the outbreak. In an article for the American Thinker, Ronald R. Cherry MD discusses how this outbreak may play out:

 Similar to SARS, the current Chinese Coronavirus, known as 2019-nCoV, is transmitted from person to person by close personal contact, and also believed to be readily transmitted by respiratory droplets and aerosols produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes. The CDC informs us that the Chinese epidemic “reportedly had some link to a large seafood and animal market, suggesting animal-to-person spread,” but some believe 2019-nCoV might be a Chinese bioweapon which leaked out of their Wuhan BSL-4 microbiology research laboratory. 

The second scenario seems the more likely of the two. Cherry goes on to present the numbers- how an exponential outbreak would affect a population. " Exponential expansion of an infectious disease occurs when the rate of growth is proportional to the number of people currently infected. The mathematical formula for exponential growth is:"

 “xt” refers to the total number of cases, “xo” the number of index cases or the number of cases at the time of mathematical calculation, “r” the rate of disease transmission (the number of people infected by each prior case), and “t” the number of incubation time intervals during the course of an epidemic. 

According to Dr. Cherry's model there will be about 200,000 cases in China by Feb. 4 using the currently accepted numbers- although it appears that there are far more than the MSM is reporting. According to the article:

 Read et al. have mathematically predicted about 200,000 cases in China by February 4 using an estimate of 11,341 cases on January 21 and an “r” of 3.8. Using a more conservative “r” of 3.0, an incubation time of 5 days, and a current number of 8,000 cases (6,000 undetected and unreported) there would be 97,000 cases by February 4 and about 100 million cases by the first of March. Assuming the 10% fatality rate seen in SARS, there would be 10 million deaths by March. 

This is a far cry from the "there's nothing to worry about" that we're getting from the Fake News Complex. Moreover, according to a recent admission from the CDC there mat in fact be more than 3 cases in the US. Taking into consideration the fact that the symptoms aren't necessarily consistent, there may be as many as 22 US states already affected.

 A regional virus outbreak in China has morphed into a global scare that now threatens countries all across the world. Cases in America have skyrocketed, with 22 states now being monitored by the Centers for Disease Control. The CDC is watching a total of 63 potential instances of the Wuhan virus across the nearly two dozen states, CNBC reports. 

The CDC is calling this a "rapidly changing situation" in what might be the only accurate statement the organization has made to date. This harkens back to movies such ss Outbreak, Pandemic and Contagion where martial law is implemented and citizens killed by the government. However, I promised myself to stick to the facts so I'll keep my paranoia to myself.

 Further complicating the CDC’s response is the fact that some people infected with the virus have dropped dead without ever running a fever. It’s important to note that checkpoints at American airports are largely attempting to isolate the infected by scanning for high temperatures.  Without a fever or other obvious symptoms, it’s possible for an infected person to enter the country and spread the virus before realizing anything is wrong. 

If you remember at the beginning of the post, the symptoms may be diarrhea or other non-specific things that wouldn't attract the attention at airport checkpoints. The CDC however does seem to be trying to keep their fingers on the pulse of what has the potential for becoming a pandemic. The MSM is doing nobody any favors by trying to downplay the situation.

 These carefully chosen ‘facts’ are then passed on to ‘trusted’ news reporters. They get passed on to their cautious editors who in turn hand them over to producers concerned about the bottom line. Those producers will curate the words we finally hear. A dangerous game of Post Office. The final details far removed from the original facts. 

What makes the situation potentially hazardous is that: "Coronaviruses are a family of viruses that infect a wide range of different species including humans, cattle, pigs, chickens, dogs, cats and wild animals." Add to this fact that it is also a manufactured bioweapon and the potential for disaster multiplies- as Dr. Cherry would say- exponentially.

 ‘Until this new coronavirus was identified, there were only six different coronaviruses known to infect humans. Four of these cause a mild common cold-type illness, but since 2002 there has been the emergence of two new coronaviruses that can infect humans and result in more severe disease (Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) and Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) coronaviruses). ‘Coronaviruses are known to be able to occasionally jump from one species to another and that is what happened in the case of SARS, MERS and the new coronavirus. The animal origin of the new coronavirus is not yet known.’ 

Imagine the effect when and if one of the multiple Coronaviruses comes in contact with other pathogens and mutates. I'm getting those images in my head again from the movies. Is this a Problem-Reaction-Solution scenario, or is this an experiment that "escaped" and has the potential to kill millions like the Black Plague in Medieval times... or is it the unthinkable- a part of the elites depopulation plan, after all Bill Gates in involved.

It well could be an experiment that escaped and was part of the intended depopulation plan...just introduced too early for the elites plan. There is a lot they are not saying. I resteemed my friend @richq11.

It was released right on schedule.

you have saved for me the bother of writing an article on how the Ministry of Truth was reacting to this problem...which Narrative they were were spinning ;>

I just posted part II which goes into that a bit more.

resteemed

I noticed that I had unfollowed you...for a second time...wth is going on w steemit. my fingers are NOT that fat. it also seems that you are the only one i have seen this happening to.

neither of us is important enough to gaslight

I guess I better check to make sure I'm still following you

This disease is really very dangerous, now the world is rumored to be this very dangerous virus

I'm looking at it from a slightly different angle....( Past Performance of 'pandemics' - sars etc. - Is No Guarantee of Future Results)

This may be 'the big one', it may not, worrying about it (reaction) isn't gonna change anything in real time. (if this is the actual 'depopulation event' that the elites are planning).

https://steemit.com/blog/@lucylin/urgent-update-on-corona-virus-it-s-growing-i-tell-ya

Start maxing out daily on vit C and D and ride the wave, is all we can do. (oh and avoid people like the plague - pun intended)

I'm not worried about myself- I rarely go out, only to the store or doctors (which worries me more than anywhere). My concern is the absence of truth about the severity of the problem... which I can't do anything about anyways... I'm merely an interested observer.

Yup - I'm back to living a semi recluse life again, so I'm not stressing too much.

"In CNN, we trust" lol.

I pretty much always have... I don't like being around people very much, I find my dog much better company.

Fear is the deadliest virus!

Well said.
