Per this story:

"Nigeria records chloroquine poisoning after Trump endorses it for treatment"

Now, I see CNN may have posted something like this first. Trump only spoke about this days ago.

Still, there are a lot of drugs out there that also cause damage if not taken in the right way. So, for the timebeing, I would say, this story is questionable not The Epoch Times. Still, it is for us to vent the news.  This dealt with Nigeria. It's also jaw-dropping to hear complaints from people who made it clear, they didn't vote for Trump in the first place to be so unpleased when an article goes up like this. I don't remember exactly who said this or that, but I do remember a number of persons, unlike Moi who made it clear, they were not on the Trump train to begin with.  Where is that "Lighten up Francis" gif.

Sometimes, when I've heard a statement like yours, I wonder, who is more apt to cover China than Chinese?? They are giving news and have a real connection with the country. Could they be wrong? Yes.
That sounds like a common sense approach.  I too have seen Epoch Times ads all over YouTube but it's likely due to the amount of time I spend viewing far-right / pro-trump propaganda videos...which is a joke and a point all in one.  Who is paying for their advertising budget?  They're like Bloomberg ads last month.

Thanks for your reply @TomSea

On a side note I often question how much I should praise you, because I know I am not TBR's most popular poster, but I hope I will offend no one by saying I'm grateful to be sharing this forum and this time with a man as thoughtful, informed, and questioning as you.

and holy smokes you are a patient moderator.

I keep come here because I know you have already linked the answer to my questions somewhere and you have diligently moved traffic to an appropriate thread, and now I will shut up so you can apologize to everyone else for my presence.

This article is over a month old BUT...Newsweek even lent their name to it, okay, they are MSM, gripe but they are still widely recognized and they actually did an article on the "possible" links of coronavirus and fertile males. Again, not peered reviewed but this disease really is only months old:
Quote
Chinese Scientists Raise Concerns Over Potential Link Between Coronavirus and Male Fertility

Scientists in China have raised concerns the new coronavirus, named COVID-19, may affect male fertility. However, experts in the field has stressed to Newsweek that men should not be worried.

Chinese researchers were looking at existing data on a receptor that COVID-19 is thought to use to infect human cells. They found it is highly expressed in the cells of the testes and kidneys.

It is not clear if the data included any COVID-19 patients, and does not feature data on the fertility of those who have caught the infection.

So not proven but if this happened, this would be really bad.

So think about this for a minute. If the Chinese wanted to reduce their population how would they do this.
They would start with old and the infirm. And then they would reduce fertility rates.
If this is not what is called a selective bioweapon, it certainly could be.

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.

Absolutely correct, that's been discussed, it seems even Bill Gates discussed the threats of viruses in 2015. I"m not following what he said closely but here's an article on it:

https://www.msn.com/en-us/health/medical/bill-gates-warned-us-of-a-covid-19-like-pandemic-e2-80-94-watch-his-ted-talk-from-2015/ar-BB11k0Bs
Quote
“If anything kills over 10 million people in the next few decades, it’s likely to be a highly infectious virus rather than a war,” Gates said during the Ted Talk. “Not missiles, but microbes.”

Those interested can track this down.

Iranian Officials Stole More Than $1 Billion in Humanitarian Coronavirus Funds, Pompeo Says

Tehran uses pandemic to spread anti-U.S. propaganda

Adam Kredo - March 23, 2020 2:00 PM

Iranian regime officials stole more than $1 billion in humanitarian funds meant to be used to help the country's people fight the spread of coronavirus, according to Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.

European countries intended for more than $1 billion cash for medical supplies to go to the Iranian people, who have been ravaged by the virus. But American officials say regime leaders instead pocketed the money and are now using it to protect themselves from the virus as it spreads throughout the population. This includes hoarding medical supplies that were meant to aid Iranian citizens.

Multiple regional reports have showed that before and since the virus began spreading, Iranian leaders stole funds purposed directly to support the ailing Iranian people.

The story has been in the news for about a week But this is the first time, the Secretary of State, Pompeo said it. A credible voice.

 Pompeo Says Iran Brought in Virus through Continued Flights to China

by Naharnet Newsdesk

U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Monday accused Iran's Ayatollah Ali Khamenei of lying about the coronavirus pandemic as the Supreme Leader rejected U.S. assistance for his hard-hit country.

In a televised address Sunday, Khamenei described the United States as "charlatans" and charged that Washington could bring in a drug to keep the virus alive.

Pompeo in a statement also used loaded language, accusing "Iran's chief terror airline" Mahan Air of bringing in what he called the "Wuhan virus" through its continued flights to China.

US Lawmakers Call on Twitter to Bar Chinese Communist Party Accounts Over Virus Disinformation
By Eva Fu
March 21, 2020 Updated: March 22, 2020

Two Republican lawmakers are urging Twitter to ban Chinese Communist Party officials from the social media platform in response to the regime’s aggressive propaganda campaign to “whitewash” its coverup of the outbreak.

“While the coronavirus pandemic is afflicting families, governments, and markets around the world, the Chinese Communist Party is waging a massive propaganda campaign to rewrite the history of COVID-19 and whitewash the Party’s lies,” wrote Sen. Ben Sasse (R-Neb.) and Rep. Mike Gallagher (R-Wis.) in a March 20 letter to Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey.

Twitter is censored in China, but dozens of Chinese diplomats, embassies, and consulates are active on the platform, pushing state-sanctioned narratives about the outbreak.

Virus Outbreak: Controls, quarantines working: Chen
MORE CASES EXPECTED: Many young Taiwanese would be returning home over the next two weeks, as schools in many nations closed, the health minister said

    By Lee I-chia / Staff reporter

Twenty-six new COVID-19 cases were confirmed yesterday, including five clusters, and all but one were imported, bringing Taiwan’s total number to 195, as border controls and home quarantine measures prove their effectiveness, the head of the Central Epidemic Command Center (CECC) said.

Twelve of the new cases were in people tested at airports upon their return, 11 were in people under home quarantine and two were people who tested positive after seeking medical treatment, Minister of Health and Welfare Chen Shih-chung (陳時中), who heads the center, said at its daily news conference.

Women, wearing masks to prevent contracting the coronavirus, following the outbreak of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19), walk
Women, wearing masks to prevent contracting COVID-19 following the outbreak of the coronavirus disease, walk in a shopping district in Seoul, South Korea, March 23, 2020.

SEOUL, SOUTH KOREA - It was Thursday morning, and my phone buzzed with a text message from South Korea’s emergency alert system, as it has hundreds of times during the coronavirus outbreak. 

Someone in my Seoul neighborhood — a 35-year-old Polish male — had tested positive. Clicking a link to a government website revealed an astonishing level of detail about the man’s activities over the previous two days. 

After arriving at Seoul’s Incheon airport at about 9:00 a.m., the man took an express train to my local metro station, where, wearing a mask, he shopped at a nearby E-Mart grocery store. He then returned home, before getting dinner five hours later at an Italian restaurant in Seoul’s Itaewon neighborhood popular with foreigners. He was still wearing a mask, but took it off while eating, the message adds.

Latest coronavirus update from Cuban authorities: 40 cases confirmed, 531 others hospitalized, 37,888 suspected
March 23, 2020 by Carlos Eire



Figures from the Ministry of Public Health — which can never be trusted, due to its many efforts to lie to the public repeatedly — are alarming.

So far, the confirmed cases are attributed to individuals who brought the plague to Cuba from abroad,

Castro, Inc continues to claim that transmission from Cuban to Cuban on the island is not taking place. And, according to them, some provinces remain unaffected.

Exclusive: Elite hackers target WHO as coronavirus cyberattacks spike
Raphael Satter, Jack Stubbs, Christopher Bing

WASHINGTON/LONDON (Reuters) - Elite hackers tried to break into the World Health Organization earlier this month, sources told Reuters, part of what a senior agency official said was a more than two-fold increase in cyberattacks.

WHO Chief Information Security Officer Flavio Aggio said the identity of the hackers was unclear and the effort was unsuccessful. But he warned that hacking attempts against the agency and its partners have soared as they battle to contain the coronavirus, which has killed more than 15,000 worldwide.

The attempted break-in at the WHO was first flagged to Reuters by Alexander Urbelis, a cybersecurity expert and attorney with the New York-based Blackstone Law Group, which tracks suspicious internet domain registration activity.

Underlying Conditions
India’s coronavirus crisis was decades in the making
Vidya Krishnan    23 March 2020

The global coronavirus crisis has been called many things: a pandemic, an unprecedented crisis, a re-run of sorts of the Spanish flu’s decimation of the human population just over a century ago. In India, from the eyes of anyone who studies public health, it is also a catastrophe that has been in the making for decades, perhaps since as far back as Independence.

In weeks of reporting since India saw its first COVID-19 cases and deaths, I am yet to speak with an epidemiologist or infectious-disease expert who is surprised that the country is utterly unprepared for what awaits us—which, they all agree, is a surge of infections and resulting deaths.

One assessment published in a medical journal in January reckoned that India had 2.3 ICU beds per 100,000 people. The medical system in Iran, for which the assessment put the figure at 4.6, is overwhelmed with COVID-19 cases. Experts in the United States, where the ratio of ICU beds was reckoned to be more than six times higher, are warning that it will soon run out of ICU beds too. India has less than one allopathic doctor per thousand people—the minimum recommended by the World Health Organisation. As of 2016, the Indian Medical Association was showing a shortage of tens of thousands of critical-care specialists. The dominant share of doctors and beds are in the private healthcare sector, which has enormous leeway to set its own prices and make its own rules—and to exploit both to put profits before patients.

Venezuelan doctors brace for coronavirus: 'I tried to get a surgical mask. It's double my monthly salary'

A Venezuelan medic tried to buy a surgical mask, only to find it was selling for $35 - and she earns $15 a month.
By Harriet Alexander New York 22 March 2020 • 5:55pm

Venezuela’s doctors and nurses are bracing themselves for the impact of coronavirus amid warnings that there will be "carnage" across the country if the virus takes hold.

The country's healthcare system is already facing a desperate shortage of staff and medical supplies after years of economic crisis.

One nurse in Barinas state told the Telegraph that she had been searching her hometown for a face mask, but the only one she could find cost $35 (£30). Her monthly salary is $15.

Netherlands was trying that "herd immunity" concept, excerpt:

What the Netherlands' lax guidelines for coronavirus could mean for Jews
Prime Minister Mark Rutte has essentially argued that social distancing will only prolong the disastrous effects of the virus.
By CNAAN LIPHSHIZ/JTA   MARCH 25, 2020

...

Prime Minister Mark Rutte has essentially argued that social distancing will only prolong the disastrous effects of the virus. He believes — supposedly based on the knowledge of medical professionals — that the Dutch population should be somewhat exposed to the virus so that immunity can be formed and society can return to a sense of normalcy as quickly as possible.

The Dutch government did shut down schools, cafes, movie theaters, houses of worship and many offices, but we are still free here to move around, shop, pick up takeout and receive packages in the mail.
Our extensive public transportation network hasn’t skipped a beat.

Sweden has a similarly lax policy. The United Kingdom, whose prime minister, Boris Johnson, had adhered to the same “herd immunity” policy as Rutte, introduced stricter measures on Monday, telling residents to stay home and ordering shops selling non-essential goods to shutter. Johnson on Monday finally ordered a full lockdown.

Netherlands destroys millions of tulips
Agence France-Presse

NAALDWIJK: It’s tulip season in The Netherlands but this year growers are destroying millions of flowers a day, in unprecedented scenes as the coronavirus pandemic has cut demand.

Mountains of tulips, roses, chrysanthemums and other flowers destined for destruction have been waiting for the last week in the world’s biggest flower market.

Brightly colored blooms that might normally have been destined for a romantic gesture or Mothers Day are scooped up by diggers and then dumped in huge skips.

So, the Netherlands is taking a different approach though, with some precautions, the Reuters article reads the average age of those who have died is 82 in Netherlands, actually one of the articles goes ahead and calls the country "Holland" though, I think technically, that's just a part of the nation.

 Russia’s President Vladimir Putin donned a hazmat suit and breathing mask during a visit to a hospital housing coronavirus patients in Moscow on Tuesday, as the Russian government signalled the virus outbreak is becoming increasingly serious in the country.

Video aired on state media showed Putin being helped into the yellow suit by doctors at the Kommunarka infectious diseases hospital, which has been designated to treat coronavirus cases and where there are currently over 400 patients being treated for the illness.

I think Putin looks goofy in that suit.  I'd love to see President Trump in one of those too. 
Trump is a big guy so his hazmat suit will likely look like the guy to his left and tighter ( because they don't make form fitting big and tall suits) and yellow. 
Think Big Bird.

#BREAKING: The White House and Senate leaders struck a major deal early Wednesday morning over a $2-trillion package to provide a jolt to an economy struggling amid the coronavirus pandemic, capping days of marathon negotiations that produced the far-reaching measure.
12:01 AM · Mar 25, 2020

“Ladies and gentleman, we are done," White House legislative affairs director Eric Ueland said right before 1am after leaving Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell's office following negotiations that have spanned around the clock since last Friday. "We have a deal."

Ueland: “We have a deal ... Much of the work on bill text has been completed. And I’m hopeful that over the next few hours we’ll finish what’s left and be able to circulate it early in the morning.”

I have not seen the bill but I hope I'm getting $3,000 and if Planned Parenthood gets some of the Trump bailout, I hope the NRA does too.  Everybody is happy.  God Bless America.

Gaza Preacher Praises Allah for Infecting Israelis, Americans -- Day Before First Cases Reported in Gaza

(CNSNews.com) – A preacher told worshipers in Gaza’s largest mosque on Friday that Allah sent the coronavirus to inflict suffering on Israelis, Americans and those who plot against the Al-Aqsa mosque, while protecting Palestinians.

While Israeli streets were deserted as a result of lockdown precautions, said Jamil al-Mutawa, the mosque he was preaching in – the White Mosque in Gaza City – was full.

“Look how empty their streets are and look how crowded this mosque is,” he said, in comments translated by the East Media Research Institute (MEMRI). “Who is it that has given us security and terrified them? Who is it that has protected us and harmed them? It is Allah!”

It's great if people are helping those in need but they are talking about websearches and stuff in the article? Can't people do that on their own?

I can actually go along with this but I call it the coronavirus anyway.

Some cross posting from the other thread, this  next story only, per Spalding, we are already in World War III:

General Robert Spalding - China Has Started World War 3
Thursday, November 21, 2019 4:49

China is the only country fighting a truly 21st century war. For decades the Chinese Communist Party has been quietly invading the United States while America’s elite slept. World War 3 has already begun. And America might be losing. Retired Air Force Brigadier, General Robert Spalding joins me to talk about his new book Stealth War: How China Took Over While America’s Elite Slept.

Note, Spalding does not say they created it but he does emphasize how the Chinese Communist Government blocked the UN, WHO, etc. at first, on finding out about this virus.

A Frankenstein monster devouring the world

By Cliff Kincaid
March 23, 2020

In another Trump-bashing piece in the Washington Post, a professor noted, in passing, that "several Chinese labs participated more than 20 years ago in the human genome project," as if this were a good thing. In fact, the Human Genome Project (HGP) opened the door to a Communist Frankenstein project of human genetic modification and manipulation. The Chinese Reds are the new Nazis.

If there is anything to be learned from this disaster, it is that America must become self-sufficient in terms of medicine and medical production capabilities and avoid entanglements with China. President Trump was moving in the direction of America-first policies before the Chinese unleashed their virus on the world.

Assuming that President Trump (with the reluctant support of congressional Democrats) can save our nation from an economic apocalypse, it will be necessary for America to remain on guard against even more Chinese biological threats. And one of the most significant is Chinese communist scientific and genetic manipulation of what it means to be human. "China is fast becoming the world capital of controversial science," notes one report.

Not exactly an update, but an interesting perspective on how time doesn't change people....

Character still matters.  It always matters.

I wear a mask as an exercise in liberty and love for others.  To see it as an infringement of liberty is to entirely miss the point.  Be kind.

"Sometimes I think the Church would be better off if we would call a moratorium on activity for about six weeks and just wait on God to see what He is waiting to do for us. That's what they did before Pentecost."   - A. W. Tozer

Use the time God is giving us to seek His will and feel His presence.
