Everyone is saying that this thing won’t spread…yeah I totally believe that…that’s what they said about Covid. CDC and WHO are investigating this right now as this is a developing situation. Kinda interesting to see, HQ is still closed off and we all have been instructed to still follow the instructions. It would be wild if a new “pandemic” started up.

We hope that this pandemic is significant and is a unique stepping stone to a proclamation of peace and security, however the bible talks about pestilences, plural, so it wouldn't surprise me if there is another pandemic.

Yeah, but if you step back and look at what those viruses are…you realize it’s like the cold and flu…The same bugs floating around since the beginning. It’s just more aggressive and has had a profound effect on the social order…I want to see how this all plays out.

If another pandemic were to break, it wouldn't surprise me if the world will just ignore it and carry on.  The economy is their priority, and co-vid has caused a lot of damage to it, no more lockdowns or restrictions, just carry on as normal.

Anything can happen, new pandemics, earthquakes, the important thing is not to let your guard down, and raise your head and trust in Jehovah!

Is China showing the world they learned a lesson from the covid cover-up?  Are they making a special point of getting out in front of this?  Or, is it just that no one will blame them for creating this on purpose - thus no reason to obfuscate?

 

OFF Topic:  Someone pointed out that the Spanish influenza didn't start in Spain.  I wonder how/why Spain got stuck with that legacy?

As I understand it, other countries hit hard by the influenza were censoring any reports because it was wartime, but Spain was a neutral country at the time and they were free to write about whatever they wanted in the papers. They were the first ones to report about the flu, despite it not being so bad there at the time, but people assumed that because they were the only ones reporting that Spain was “ground zero” for the flu...and they got stuck with the name.

Spain was the first to report the Influenza while the rest of the world was trying to cover it up.
