By Samuel Strait – Reporter at Large – March 27, 2022 There have been many reports, most untrue, about the limited affect that SARS-CoV-2, Covid for those of you that don't know, has had on the population of China due to the draconian measures taken by the Communist Party there. For the longest time, government numbers from China seem to indicate that rigid lockdowns, testing, masks and mass vaccination was blunting the over all affect of the virus within its borders. Despite the reports from the CCP of relatively few deaths in the past two years and relatively few infections, reporting from sources outside government circles paint an entirely different picture. We have had some inkling that all was not well within China for some time, as citizens have been allowed out of the Country in large numbers due to Chinese influences through out the world. As they were initially allowed to travel unfettered, most Countries felt the impact from those Chinese travelers as they proceeded to infect the entire world with the virus. Along with those that escaped from China we have learned that measures employed in Chinese Cities closely resembled block by block prison camps. Regular testing, enforced masking, and vaccination. Nothing came off the table for that totalitarian regime, kind of like the "China Light" practiced in California by our Governor, if you are familiar with the connotation. With the revaluation that those kinds of responses to Covid in New Zealand, South Korea, and Singapore failed, things have become much clearer as to what happened behind the Propaganda Wall in China. While South Korea was experiencing its largest surge of the newest variant, Omicron, China was also. It has appeared that Chinese state controlled media has not been exactly honest about its numbers. Current photos of the Chinese plight, followed by reports of harsh restrictions have become a regular flow out of the Country. Deaths and infections were greater than what was being reported. Still all in all, for a Country with a population of over one and a half billion packed for the most part into densely populated cities, the effect has been more economic than deadly. Here in this Country, it has been acknowledged with increasing frequency that nothing our government employed had any real effect on our numbers, and in fact those numbers are beginning to dwindle rapidly. As State after State here in this Country have begun to report fewer total deaths along with a Centers for Disease Control recent reduction, reality may finally set in. While still not close to that reality, at least we are headed in the right direction, downward. China, in the meantime, is facing reality as well. A constant flow of indicators show that China's policies have not worked any better than they did in this State. Unfortunately, just like China, too many Californians desperately cling to the "narrative". It is difficult to explain to those that are all in on the Covid porn that it is unlikely to kill if you are reasonably healthy. Something you cannot see, hear, taste, smell or touch has been magnified by the "narrative" into an all consuming fear of impending death. This unfortunately is far from the truth. There are many other health conditions, and potential causes for death that far out strip what Covid has wrought. It has recently been revealed that the "narrative's" number one solution may be more deadly than the virus itself. Masks do not work, lockdowns haven't worked either, and now the "vaccines" have been exposed as nothing but therapeutics and do not confer immunity. Events in China are but the latest exposure to the failed practices employed here in the United States…… The message has become, "learn to live with it"….
