Coronavirus ‘Cover-Up’ Is China’s Chernobyl: White House National Security Adviser

“It was a cover-up. And we’ll get to the bottom of it eventually.”

The White House national security advisor Robert O’Brien has compared China’s response to the coronavirus outbreak to the Soviet Union’s cover-up of the meltdown at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant.

“They unleashed a virus on the world that’s destroyed trillions of dollars in American economic wealth that we’re having to spend to keep our economy alive, to keep Americans afloat during this virus,” O’Brien said in an NBC interview.

“The cover-up that they did of the virus is going to go down in history, along with Chernobyl.” O’Brien added.

“We’ll see an HBO special about it 10 or 15 years from now.” he urged, referring to the recent award winning dramatisation of the 1986 disaster.

“This is a real problem and it cost many, many thousands of lives in America and around the world because the real information was not allowed to get out,” O’Brien further proclaimed.

“It was a cover-up. And we’ll get to the bottom of it eventually.” O’Brien asserted.

O’Brien’s comments come as Shi Zhengli, the the deputy director of the Wuhan Institute of Virology, warned that COVID-19 is ‘just the tip of the iceberg’ of unknown deadly viruses, while again denying that her lab had anything to do with the outbreak.

“If we want to prevent human beings from suffering from the next infectious disease outbreak, we must go in advance to learn of these unknown viruses carried by wild animals in nature and give early warnings.” Shi said, adding “If we don’t study them there will possibly be another outbreak.”

As details continue to emerge, China admitted recently that it did order laboratories to destroy samples of the new coronavirus in the early stage of the outbreak.

The destruction of the samples was first noted back in February. It was also noted that the Wuhan Institute of Virology, which was conducting controversial experiments into animal-to-human transmission of bat coronaviruses, altered their database in an apparent attempt to distance the lab from the outbreak.

The alteration was carried out just two days before a gene sequencing lab was ordered by the Health and Medical Commission of Hubei Province to destroy it’s coronavirus samples.

In addition, a scientific study in Austria has found that SARS-CoV-2 was likely created in a lab, barring some “remarkable coincidence” that led to the virus naturally evolving to be optimised to attack human cells.

The authors of the study believe this means that the virus “became specialized for human cell penetration by living previously in human cells, quite possibly in a laboratory.”

The British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, currently being criticised for imposing another lockdown based on questionable data, has met with Bill Gates to discuss implementing a global “health security” program using Britain’s G7 presidency to speed up the process.

Johnson met with Gates along with the CEOs of ten of the world’s biggest pharmaceutical companies to foment plans to roll out the vaccine for coronavirus.

Every CEO agreed to commit to providing “fair” access across the globe to the vaccine when it is ready.

Johnson said that the opportunity the G7 presidency in 2021 affords Britain will allow the nation to spearhead a global health plan developed by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation in partnership with the Wellcome Trust.

The plan was unveiled by Gates at the UN in September, where he called for  overhauling big pharma’s capacity to manufacture “vaccines and treatments.”

Johnson hailed the effort as a “new era of collaboration for problem solving,” and “pandemic preparedness,” adding that it will be a “truly global endeavor”.

The Prime Minister said that world leaders should have heeded Gates’ warnings years ago, and must now work with his Foundation to prevent “something like [Covid-19] ever happening again.”

Gates noted that “the world needs a comprehensive strategy; a coherent approach to financing and manufacturing billions of doses of vaccines, tests and drugs; and a network to monitor for new threats.”

“We’re fortunate that Prime Minister Johnson has come up with a smart plan to do just that in the UK, and our foundation will continue to work with his government and others to make it a reality,” Gates added.

The British government is preparing to roll out the coronavirus vaccine on a level never before seen, drafting in the army to man vaccination centres at arenas, sports halls, and shopping malls.

It has been described as “the biggest logistical effort since the Second World War.”

Gates has previously declared that the world won’t return to normal until “a lot of people” take a second “super-effective” coronavirus vaccine that could be years away.

Last week, we Gates has forcast that a “best case scenario” for a return to normal would be the end of 2021, a date that was qualified with the proviso, “We still don’t know whether these vaccines will succeed.”

The billionaire has also suggested that governments need to ‘brainstorm’ ways of “reducing vaccine hesitancy,” in the face of anti-vaccine “conspiracy theories”.

‘Hitler Is Smiling Up At Cuomo’: NY Governor Slammed Over ‘Gestapo’ Covid Restrictions

New directive dictates how many guests people can have in their homes

New York Governor Andrew Cuomo was blasted Wednesday after he announced a raft of new COVID-19 restrictions that could see people prevented from spending the holidays with their own families.

Cuomo tweeted that “New York follows the science,” and labeled gatherings as a “major source of COVID spread,” announcing that private residences will be limited to 10 people or fewer people.

In a further tweet, Cuomo declared that businesses with a licence to sell alcohol, in addition gyms will also be forced to close at 10pm every night, beginning at the end of this week:

In a third post, Cuomo proclaimed that “COVID is getting worse by the day,” and ordered people to “wear a mask” and “get tested”:

There is no indication of how any of this will be enforced, leading critics to suggest that the Gestapo may be coming to New Yorkers’ Thanksgiving dinners:

Daily Wire writer Matt Walsh asked ““Where does Cuomo derive the authority to tell people how many guests they can have at their own homes?”

Steven Crowder suggested that Hitler would be smiling up at Cuomo right now:

Others noted that Cuomo is hawking a book about responding to the virus:

Others wondered if Cuomo will be paying people’s mortgages, bills and rent:

Here We Go: Biden ‘Scientific’ Advisor Wants ‘Strict As Possible’ Lockdowns

“The problem with the March-to-May lockdown was that it was not uniformly stringent across the country”

If he is elected, Joe Biden has promised to shut down the country again should ‘experts’ recommend him to do so, and that is exactly what one of Biden’s ‘scientific’ advisors is asking for.

Dr. Michael Osterholm, director of the Center of Infectious Disease Research and Policy at the University of Minnesota, has joined Biden’s “special coronavirus transition advisory team.”

Osterholm told reporters Wednesday that he believes there should be a nation-wide lockdown for four to six weeks in order to effectively manage the number of new cases and hospitalizations from coronavirus.

“We could pay for a package right now to cover all of the wages, lost wages for individual workers for losses to small companies to medium-sized companies or city, state, county governments,” Osterholm said.

“We could do all of that,” he said.“If we did that, then we could lockdown for four-to-six weeks,” he added.

Osterholm has repeatedly called for lockdowns, and for stricter measures to ensure they are properly enforced.

“The problem with the March-to-May lockdown was that it was not uniformly stringent across the country. For example, Minnesota deemed 78 percent of its workers essential,” Osterholm co-wrote in the New York Times.

“To be effective, the lockdown has to be as comprehensive and strict as possible,” the piece urged.

As strict as possible presumably means forcing people to stay in their homes as European countries like Spain and France did earlier this year. Anyone travelling or just out on the street was required to have papers giving them permission to do so.

There is no scientific evidence that lockdowns bring down the number of cases or deaths from the virus. Indeed, the World Health Organisation has urged countries not to rely on such measures.

Unfortunately this provides the likes of Osterholm with an excuse to argue that lockdowns must be enforced with an iron fist.

Joe Biden has repeatedly signalled that he will gladly do just that:
