These are the reports the other supposed news outlets you list do not admit to or discuss. Do you think all those noted agencies are tainted? Got to consider it, meaning all that time it took you to list the course of supposed events is nothing more then the public propaganda script!
Now, we have travel bans in place but what about goods shipped from China? Still coming in? I think so. Why?! Yesterday on a construction clean up job I was asked to assemble some bar stools in boxes just received by mail, from China! Ahhhhhh!! OK, I assembled one of six, the lady hated it too uncomfortable she said so sending them back for a refund. I said to her next time please do not order anything else from China until this virus scare is over. She looked at me like I just woke her up and said, OMG you are right and it never occurred to me.
Yes, never dawned on her is what they hoped for. Not only are people clueless to our sci-fi skies and fake everything, they are incapable of thinking logically to protect themselves and all of us. Food for thought folks. How many worldly pleasures are from China and is the virus in the mail? In 1919, was that the big killer flu year, well that is what brought the germ to neighborhoods in quarantine, the mail man! Be careful.
