If we are to believe the Chinese Communist Party, it had nothing to do with the origins of the SARS-Cov-2 virus which has wreaked havoc on the world for two years. Anyway, it stamped out the virus on its own soil with admirable communist efficiency. China has had barely any covid cases and the virus has been eradicated.

That’s if we are to believe the CCP.

While governments around the world are clearly suckers for China’s lies, many of the rest of us are not so easily convinced. The evidence is almost certain that the virus was cooked up in the Wuhan lab – whether it was released deliberately or accidentally is neither here nor there, given the outcome.

We also have good reason to be suspicious that China’s infection rates and deaths have been much higher than Beijing admits.

It may also be about to get a whole lot worse, again.

The Chinese regime has notified local authorities to prepare for a large-scale outbreak of COVID-19, according to leaked internal documents obtained by the Chinese Epoch Times.

One document, titled “Notice of Further Strengthening of Epidemic Prevention” was issued by the Chinese regime’s State Council, and forwarded by Fujian provincial government to local authorities on Sept. 30. The other is a “National Day Epidemic Prevention Notice” issued by the State Council on Oct. 1 and distributed by the Fujian provincial officials to local authorities.

Now why would China be issuing urgent “epidemic prevention” notices, if they’ve eradicated the virus?

More importantly, why are they suddenly going hell-for-leather on quarantine facilities?

Local authorities [are] required by the end of October to create facilities of not less than 20 rooms per 10,000 people. The scale of each isolation site must be more than 100 rooms.

According to public data, the population of Fujian Province in 2020 was 41.54 million. As of Sept. 19, the province has set up 35,691 quarantine rooms in 296 central sites.

Based on the standard set in the notice, Fujian Province will need to build at least 83,000 quarantine rooms by the end of October, which is about 47,000 rooms in less than a month.

According to Sean Lin, a former virology researcher at the US Army Research Institute, the documents indicate that Beijing “must have been concealing the true epidemic in mainland China”.

But Lin further speculates that the measures are also aimed at tightening the CCP’s noose in China.

Lin said that the control system is actually to tighten social management in local areas, and “the CCP’s purpose is to tighten control.”

“If there is no nucleic acid test, all the CCP’s epidemic prevention measures are the same as political campaigns. For example, you can be quarantined at any time and put in a quarantine site. And the quarantine sites can also be a place of political persecution,” Lin said.

“No matter who you are, as long as the CCP says that you tested positive in a nucleic acid test, it will deprive you of all your rights. The CCP’s quarantine sites are actually an alternative form of concentration camp.”

Governments using the China virus pandemic as a means of boosting their power and tightening control over their populations?

Surely not.
