| China orders 51 million into lockdown as COVID surges |
| 2022-03-15 |
| [ABC] On Sunday, China ordered all of Shenzhen's 17.5 million residents into a seven-day lockdown, with three rounds of testing. All public transport is halted and all businesses, except essential services, will be closed until March 20. As a result, Apple supplier Foxconn has shut two of its plants in the area and relocated production elsewhere. The lockdown and outbreaks threaten manufacturing and tech production in Shenzhen, known as China's Silicon Valley. It's home to Huawei and Tencent, and is home to one of the country's key ports. The fun continues. |

| #15 Putting on my tinfoil hat, suppose this is not COVID-COVID, but instead the latest Chinese... let's call it a bio-event. |

| #14 Keep in mind China can pretty much use all those medicines that Fauci et alia worked to surpress in the United States. |

| #13 As I mention a few days ago regarding another CCP panic and massive widespread testing parade due less than 10 people being found with the C-19/22. It looked like the CCP wanted to infect as many as possible given the multiple ROWS of jammed packed with people for Testing. What better way to start a Wide Spread massive infection. |

| #12 ^ It's theater. Like all theater, it's a made-up story and you have to use your imagination while you sit in the audience watching it. |

| #11 A new variant beyond Omicron? And Omicron is little affected by the current vaccines - though we are now being told to get yet another booster anyway. Shouldn't we be seeing a new vaccine now instead of just another shot of the same? (Assuming the vaccines are of value.) |

| #10 any blue state voters want to stay home on election day? ?? What are you talking about? COVID hysteria is how the Democrats turn out their base. Thanks to Democrat brainwashing, "handling the pandemic" is the only issue where Biden polls favorably |

| #6 Wonder what the real sickness and death rate is in China? In similar population India, from excess mortality data, about 4 million, while 500K is acknowledged by the government. The problem with China is that no data can be trusted, even mortality tables, if the CCP believe there is some advantage in manipulating it. |

| #5 China has a very large and vulnerable population to illness and it is only getting larger every day. They have few ways to treat them and their medicines are complete crap. This is the only choice for them to keep from a major system shock, full 100% containment. And they are slitting their own throats with it as they need to keep being a major exporter to survive economically. People don't make cheap Chinese crap when they are locked down. |

| #1 In order to ensure a needed "110% turn out" for Mid-term Elections. The US Liberal Socialist Democrat party (LSD's) will be working hard to implement their Covid-19 Mid-Term ☺ "Open Poll Voting process" ☺. Which is modeled after their successful Open Borders Policy. |
