Perhaps the BEST B1G Forum anywhere, here at College Football Fan Site, CFB51!!!

Well it's factually correct and I think there's reason to watch the numbers very closely.  The article does mention that Texas still has a lot of available capacity in hospitals, ICUs, and ventilators.  Of course, they didn't LEAD with that info, because it won't get any eyeballs...

It says the previous high was May 5, a month ago.  One day doesn't mean anything obviously.  This high figure just topped the May 5 figure, and every day in between was lower.  Trends count.

Florida is using <25 percent of its hospital resources right now. That's been steady for quite some time.

Illinois is using about 50 percent of its ICU beds and ventilators. 

My thoughts tend to go along the lines of they did it to level the playing field. All they care about is being the World's bank.

They shut down travel within their own country, but allowed armies to go to Europe, the US, and elsewhere - threby crippling competing economies (or so they thought).

That rings alarm bells for me.

Was going to say destabilize the opposition but you brought  the bank thing - great point

So they were suffering, everyone else should, too?

That is my line of thinking. Take everyone else down with them.

I chose your post to respond to, because it was the most recent one.  But your response was unwarranted and aggressive.

So now I'll match your tone-- get bent.  I'll be deleting political posts on this thread.  Don't like it?  Go somewhere else.

Now I will elevate and match your tone.  Go to hell asshat. 🖕

I highly doubt this was their reasoning. If they intended on using this disease as a weapon it was to strategically gain ground on America. Not out of some reason of spite- where oh we are suffering so we will make everyone else suffer too! The Chinese communist government stated goal is to upset the world order and end American hegemony and to replace America as the dominant world power. They explicitly state this. We should believe people when they say things. They say it and they mean it.

I don't think this virus was engineered in a lab at all. There is zero evidence for that. There is however some circumstantial evidence that it was a naturally occurring virus in bats- which makes sense- bats are literally host to thousands of viruses- and it spread through a lab accident. What there is a concrete evidence of is the Chinese communist party at first ignoring the threat of the virus and then immediately engaging in a cover-up of epic proportions once higher-ups in the party realized this thing was a lot more serious than the SARS virus they deal with just 15-16 years earlier. Xi is probably the most authoritarian leader that China has had since Mao. Makes sense that he'd try to cover this up as tightly as possible or even perhaps use it as a weapon.

This guy lived in China for 10+ years, is fluent in Mandarin and married a Chinese woman and had a baby with her before moving back to America last year because of things getting so bad in China. And I think he pretty much cracked the Coronavirus code- I think he makes a great case- everyone should watch this.
