So this is what I *heard* I didnt look into it much so it could be misinformation.

They believe this was not a manmade / engineered virus. They think the virus was contained (where it was being studied)at that Wuhan lab and somehow it got out.

Is that inaccurate or is it all just theories?

It's somewhere between theories and conspiracy theories. Zero evidence, but we need somebody to blame.

Blame it on China
Don't blame it on me
Oh-oh, oh, it's nobody's fault
But we need somebody to burn

Looks like it’s more than just America blaming China, but you can shill for CCP if it makes you feel better.

Well, they obviously have some evidence it came from Wuhan dont they? So Whether it was from a wet market or a lab wouldnt the blame be basically the same?

Are you referring to Ram Nath Kovind, President of India?
 
Funny how China won’t allow W.H.O. To come to Wuhan to investigate the origins of the virus... hmmm

China Refuses to Allow WHO Reps to Investigate Coronavirus Origins
c0922c1498f3116455591812efd87179

China has refused requests by the World Health Organization to take part in an investigation into the origins of the coronavirus.

“We know that some national investigation is happening but at this stage we have not been invited to join,” Dr. Gauden Galea, WHO representative in China, told Sky News. “WHO is making requests of the health commission and of the authorities.”

The WHO and the U.S. intelligence community have concluded that the coronavirus is naturally-occurring and was not genetically engineered. However, U.S. officials suspect that the pathogen may have been accidentally from a lab, possibly the Wuhan Institute of Virology or the Wuhan Center for Disease Control.

Laboratory logs “would need to be part of any full report, any full look at the story of the origins,” Dr. Galea said. The WHO representative emphasized that “the origins of virus are very important, the animal-human interface is extremely important and needs to be studied. The priority is we need to know as much as possible to prevent the reoccurrence.”

U.S. officials and politicians have accused China of attempting to cover up the initial coronavirus outbreak. The White House has ordered intelligence agencies to compile evidence of a cover up.

President Trump has also halted U.S. funding to the WHO after accusing the organization of mishandling the outbreak and parroting Chinese propaganda regarding the coronavirus. Republicans on the House Oversight Committee have urged Democratic colleagues to investigate the WHO’s ties to China.

And maybe them destroying samples and not sending the genome to the US and other Western Countries could be another.

Duuuuude........you are so wrong. I have extensive experience with UV “disinfection”. A virus DOES have DNA.....and UV does NOT kill the virus. It disrupts and changes its’ DNA so it can’t reproduce. You’re welcome......

Some viruses are RNA viruses, not DNA, including HIV and Corona virus.

It bothers me a lot... I know I guess *logically* he just likes the attention. Its one of the reasons I just could not ever vote for the guy. I hear a lot of people talk about how important it is to respect others, other opinions even if they’re drastically opposed to your own, and thats how I was raised, yet with Trump he’s like a disrespect bumper car in a traffic jam. I dont hate him (maybe Im too nice?), but I roll my eyes everytime I read / hear that stuff... He’s the president of a people that HE seems to be at war with. Heck I dont like the media very much, I have my issues with peoples politics and opinions and I think their is corruption all over in politics but the way he talks about other people whom he is supposed to be a leader of... it just bothers me a lot.

I think he’s past having to insult people anymore. He actually would fare much better now if he would just stop his insulting. :dunno:

I guess you'd have to ask Mags/Trump, but my impression is that they think it reflects worse on China if it came from the lab.

So WHO is being frozen out by China and also WHO is in league with China.

I guess if you throw everything at the wall, something might stick?

WHO is trying to do damage control, China won’t let them in. It’s not binary.

It's not specifically shutting anything down until July 6th, it's just extending the state of emergency which was set to expire on the 7th of this month. Basically an extension of the powers of the governor during an emergency, versus having it lapse.

It is a qualifier for fed funding.

So May 15th for rural areas and still uncertain about the metro areas?
Click to expand...

that seems to be the plan. It's understandable. I have spent a lot of time in eastern Oregon, and some of the counties have always had social distancing and in those instances it was more like 6 miles than 6 feet

The governor seems to be welding the easing of restrictions in the more urban areas to significantly increased testing and contact tracing

Deadliest day yet. While the good ol boys down south are prioritizing getting their mullet trimmed and taken their lady out to Sizzler

That makes no sense at all. Lol

Covid doesn’t kill you in a couple days. It won’t even kill you in a week. It’s mainly the pneumonia you get from the virus which takes at least a week to get.

But looking back to what Dr. Fauci clearly stated. The death toll is not what you look at because it’s going to trail the curve. It’s looking at infections and hospital beds.

I was being a smart ass and making fun of rednecks

But it doesn’t take away from the fact that we shouldn’t take it lightly, like many in the south want us to

With phase 1 of the opening potentially starting June 1st, maybe even sooner. That's just what we're hearing for our school.

I know it's baby steps, but our neighborhood Starbucks that's been shut down since March 17th, is re-opening Monday.
