Did the World Health Organization Lie About the Spread of Wuhan Coronavirus to Protect China?
The World Health Organization, an entity people everywhere can supposedly rely on for accuracy, gave provably false information to countries around the globe about human-to-human spread of Wuhan coronavirus in January.
To recap, at the end of December the WHO was warned by Taiwan officials that the Wuhan coronavirus was spreading through human-to-human contact. The WHO, an ally first to China -- whose communist party is hostile toward Taiwan -- said two weeks later there was "no evidence" this was the case. They did this by citing unreliable, dishonest, official Chinese government sources. Nearly two weeks after that, the WHO argued against restrictions on international air travel. This of course ultimately led to the devastating pandemic we are in now.
In the time in-between the warning from Taiwan and the statement from WHO everything was fine, China destroyed samples of the virus, shut down labs, arrested doctors and welded shut buildings where victims of the disease lived.

MIT biologist says fear mongering on coronavirus will go down as biggest fraud to manipulate economies
On March 12, we first published a story about Dr. Shiva after he responded to a tweet from President Trump on Twitter after he expressed his concerns about the coronovirus and how the media has exaggerated the coronavirus outbreak to scare millions of Americans. The story quickly went viral with over two million views in just four days.
As the world grapples with the coronavirus, Dr. Shiva has come out with a follow-up video that goes into a great detail to explain the real truth about coronavirus. He said it’s time to start tell the truth about the deadly coronavirus and start educating people on the importance of immune health. He thinks the “Deep State” are doing the world a disservice by exaggerating the impact of the virus.
Many of you are asking about his expertise and authority to talk on the topic of virus and immune health. Before we dive in, here is a little intro about him. Dr. Shiva has four degrees from MIT. He graduated from MIT in 1986 with a degree in electrical engineering and computer science. His PhD thesis is on Systems Biology titled: “Interferon (IFN) Response to VIRAL INFECTION.” As he explained,”Immune System is a complex engineering system and few doctors learn it given their medieval training. Your future demands “doctors” think SYSTEMS.” You can find his thesis here at MIT.edu website. He also made his MIT PHD thesis available to the public. You can download a copy here.

Another Mystery Chinese Disease: Ethiopian Nomads Bleeding to Death
A mystery illness has killed more than 2,000 nomads in Ethiopia’s Somali region since 2014, according to a report published Tuesday by Voice of America (VOA).
Those who have treated the ill say symptoms of the mysterious illness include bleeding from the nose and mouth, swollen limbs, and a green or yellow tint to eyes. Victims of this mystery ailment comprise a nomadic tribe of cattle herders, who roam the Ogaden Basin region, rich in oil and natural gas reserves.
Another group drawn to the Ogaden Basin region is the Chinese oil and gas firm Poly-GCL, which has surveyed the area since 2014, when the nomads began to exhibit symptoms of the illness.
The imminent construction of a pipeline by Poly-GCL in the region near Calub, Ethiopia, has riled residents, who argue the project will destroy the local environment and compromise grazing area for their cattle; they also add that they have not been consulted regarding the enterprise.
The joint oil and gas venture between the two nations illustrates a strategic alliance between Ahmed and Chinese dictator Xi Jinping, whose 'Belt and Road Initiative' aims to consolidate power for China across Asia, Africa, and Europe.

Hayward: It’s Time to Quarantine the Chinese Communist Party
As nations across the world struggle to contain the Wuhan coronavirus, they should realize it is also long past time to quarantine the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).
The people of China must understand that their future under the Communist Party is as outcasts, lepers, pariahs – isolated and quarantined by the civilized world. If that is not the future they want, the time to rise up and overthrow the Communists is now.
The future of China is warehouses stuffed full of rotting and decaying goods no one will buy, accounts filled with money they can’t spend, travel instantly blocked at the first sign of pandemic because that’s the only responsible way for the world to handle the Communist Party.
The early days of the Wuhan outbreak provide a deadly and unforgettable lesson that the Communists cannot be trusted to do anything except protect their own political and financial interests.

Trump targets China for coronavirus outbreak
President Trump on Thursday sought to refocus blame on China for its failure to contain coronavirus before it morphed into a global pandemic -- pushing back on propaganda efforts by the totalitarian Chinese government to blame the U.S.
"It could have been contained to that one area in China where it started," Trump said. "And certainly the world is paying a big price for what they did."
Trump has ramped up his targeting of the Chinese government since it began an effort to try and pass the blame onto the U.S. by propagating conspiracy theories online. Foreign ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian wrote on Twitter last week: “When did patient zero begin in US? How many people are infected? What are the names of the hospitals?”
Zhao went on to suggest that it “might be [the] US army who brought the epidemic to Wuhan."

Poll: Majority Approve of Trump’s Handling of Coronavirus Response
The majority of Americans approve of President Trump’s job performance overall, and even more have a positive view of his administration’s response to the Chinese coronavirus pandemic — a phenomenon that appears to be growing day by day — according to a Harris poll released Thursday.
Pollsters conducted the survey on 2,050 U.S. adults in two waves — one last week, March 14-15, 2020, and the second March 17-18, 2020. The separate polls demonstrate that Americans across the board are increasingly approving of the way the president is handling the coronavirus pandemic.
Trump’s general approval jumped four points, 49 percent to 53 percent, in less than a week. However, the jump is even greater when narrowed to his “handling” of the coronavirus, specifically. His approval jumped five points, from 51 percent to 56 percent, in a matter of days.

USM: Students to finish classes online; no in-person commencements ceremonies
BALTIMORE —Over 100,000 students who attend schools in the University System of Maryland will be finishing the spring semester online.
After Gov. Larry Hogan strongly urged higher education leaders to make the call, USM Chancellor Jay A. Perman announced Thursday night that all undergraduate face-to-face instruction will move to remote instruction for the rest of the semester.
"It will be up to presidents, provosts, deans and department heads to work out detailed plans that allow students to complete their work and to fulfill all of their requirements.

Perman also addressed commencement ceremonies among USM schools.
