Chinese ask the world to FOCUS on USS Theodore Roosevelt aircraft carrier COVID - it proved BEYOND SOLID that COVID IS NOT FROM WUHAN But PENTAGON!

[Ang4MohTrump]

THIS CARRIER SET SAIL Jan 2020 into PACIFIC OCEAN NOT NEAR CHINA AT ALL & BEFORE ANY COVID-19 FOUND in WUHAN.

BUT IT HAS COVID-19 ON BOARD SPREADING AS AN ISOLATED LIVING ENVIRONMENT IN THE OCEAN - quite alike the cruise ships e.g. DIAMOND PRINCESS etc.

WuHan got COVID-19 from US military personnel participating in Wuhan's 7th MILITARY GAMES, USS Theodore Roosevelt aircraft carrier is the SOLID EVIDENCE.

COVID-19 Claims Aircraft Carrier USS Roosevelt As Latest Victim
The Roosevelt “is operationally capable if called upon to do so,” Acting Navy Secretary Thomas Modly said, “but we are pulling the ship into Guam. Nobody from the ship will be allowed to leave the ship other than on the pier.”

USS Theodore Roosevelt transits the Pacific Ocean March 1, 2020.
PENTAGON: The coronavirus aboard ship has forced the USS Theodore Roosevelt aircraft carrier to dock in Guam in the middle of a deployment, a move that might represent the military’s most dramatic move yet to react to the global pandemic.
The loss — for however long it lasts — of the Roosevelt comes as the US and China increasingly challenge one another in the South China Sea. On Tuesday, the destroyer USS McCampbell transited the strategic Taiwan Strait, which separates Taiwan and China, a move viewed by China as a provocative act.
The carrier was in the midst of a deployment to the Philippine and South China seas when eight sailors tested positive for the virus earlier this week, leading the Navy to order the ship to Guam to begin testing all 5,000-plus sailors aboard. It’s unclear how long the ship will remain pierside, but the move cuts in half the number of carriers in the Pacific, leaving only the USS Ronald Reagan, which is currently in port in Japan.

The Roosevelt “is operationally capable if called upon to do so,” Acting Navy Secretary Thomas Modly told reporters at the Pentagon this morning, “but we are pulling the ship into Guam. Nobody from the ship will be allowed to leave the ship other than on the pier.”
Overall, the Navy has documented 104 cases of COVID-19 across the force, with every expectation that the number will rise.

“The sailors flown off the ship are doing fine. None of them have been required to be hospitalized,” he said. “Their symptoms are aches and pains, sore throats but nothing that required hospitalization. So they are in quarantine on Guam.”
The Navy has been struggling to get COVID-19 test kits out to ships at sea, but so far has had limited success. Approximately 800 test kits have been flown to the ship in recent days, not nearly enough for the 5,000 sailors aboard.

Rear Adm. James Hancock said during the press briefing the military was working to get test kits out to the fleet, but “we’re just not there yet. What we can do is do surveillance testing,” which includes temperature checks but not much else. As Breaking D readers know, none of the ships at sea last week had any COVID-19 tests aboard.

Once the Roosevelt arrives in Guam, “they’re going to figure out from there who needs to come off, who can stay on, looking at the level of symptoms and things like that,” Modly said.
The Navy’s eleven carriers have had a hard time making it out of repair availabilities on time in recent years; losing one to sickness is a significant blow to US power projection. The USS Abraham Lincoln, coming off a punishing 10-month deployment to the Middle East, has just returned to San Diego, while the USS Truman and USS Eisenhower are operating together in the Middle East. The USS Ford is still undergoing evaluation and testing off the east coast, despite being years behind schedule for its first deployment.
Those issues could only be compounded as COVID-19 continues to wreak havoc. The Navy’s top acquisition official, James Geurts, on Wednesday said he expects “there will be some delay and disruption,” in the industrial base in the coming weeks. “We’re seeing a tightening on the supply base as smaller shops deal with their local situations,” Guerts told reporters on a conference call.
While Geurts said at the moment he doesn’t foresee any schedule slippages, a prolonged disruption could affect planned repairs, as well as new builds.

“Our continued inability to build and sustain an adequate inventory of F-35 pilots leads me to conclude that we must be pragmatic regarding our ability to support” the program,” Gen. David Berger says in a blunt new 10-year force design plan.

Earlier this month, Indo-Pacom commander Adm. Philip Davidson offered an expansive new vision of how he would like to transform the way US forces train and partner with allies across the vast Indo-Pacific region, calling for the services to be linked in new, more permanent ways. His plan would position the Navy and Marine Corps as the primary regional tools to counter a rapidly modernizing China.

Rapid increase in coronavirus cases aboard US aircraft carrier
By Michael Conte, Ryan Browne and Barbara Starr, CNN

Updated 2341 GMT (0741 HKT) March 26, 2020

Washington (CNN)There are now 25 sailors who have tested positive for the coronavirus aboard the aircraft carrier USS Theodore Roosevelt, just two days after the Pentagon announced that three sailors aboard the ship had tested positive for the virus, a Navy official has confirmed to CNN.
The Navy says they expect there to be additional positive tests among the crew, with one official telling CNN there could possibly be "dozens" of new cases that emerge. A second official said that were there to be a large number of additional cases, the Defense Department would be unlikely to publicly specify how many of the Navy's overall cases are amongst members of the crew of the Roosevelt, due to concerns that adversaries such as China or North Korea could see the ship as vulnerable.
Despite the outbreak, Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Mike Gilday said in a statement, "we are confident that our aggressive response will keep USS Theodore Roosevelt able to respond to any crisis in the region."
Earlier in the day, acting Navy Secretary Thomas Modly had said there were "several" more cases onboard the ship, but did not give a specific number.
"We are in the process now of testing 100% of the crew of that ship to ensure that we're able to contain whatever spread might've occurred," Modly told reporters at the Pentagon at a briefing Thursday morning. There are approximately 5,000 personnel on board the carrier.

The Roosevelt is in the process of pulling into Guam, according to Modly. "No one on the crew will be allowed to leave anywhere into Guam, other than on pier side," he said.

US orders a 60-day freeze on overseas troop movements due to coronavirus pandemic
The ship was last in port in Vietnam more than two weeks ago. It is not clear where the sailors initially contracted the virus. The Navy is now in the process of flying all personnel off the ship.
The Wall Street Journal first reported the increase.
The more than eightfold spike in the number of positive cases in two days aboard the ship is the latest red flag of how the pandemic is affecting the US military. There is now at least 280 servicemembers who have tested positive for the novel coronavirus as of Thursday morning, an increase of at least 53 from the 227 reported on Wednesday. And there are nearly 600 positive cases across the Defense Department, which includes civilians, dependents, and contractors. According to Modly, 133 of those are in the Navy.
On Wednesday, the Pentagon confirmed that Defense Secretary Mark Esper had ordered a 60-day freeze on all overseas US troop movements, affecting 90,000 scheduled deployments, in one of the latest measures to fight the spread of the virus. The order exempts patients such as those aboard the Roosevelt, among others.
Esper also raised the health protection status for all defense installations worldwide, limiting access and encouraging telework across the department.
Despite social distance measures being taken across the department, as they are across the nation, Joint Staff Surgeon Brig. Gen. Paul Friedrichs told reporters at the Pentagon on Wednesday, "we think that we're going to continue to see this -- no surprise -- continue to grow" in the next three weeks, the farthest out they are able to model.
President Donald Trump has said he wants to have the economy opened back up by Easter.
"We think the best way to limit that growth or to mitigate that growth are the measures that we've been talking about," said Friedrichs. "I don't think there's a great deal of value in speculating on a particular date."

[Ang4MohTrump]

It supports the theory that:

Pentagon CIA made this COVID-19 virus secretively to attach Iran - hence Iran got it, and their incompetence fucked themselves during the secret operation, e.g. transportation leak, hence the US military personnel got the COVID-19

Then US military personnel spread COVID-19 into Wuhan during the 7th Military Games, they also spread into US military bases in South Korea, Italy, Spain, UK etc NATO military bases. Hence the virus are in these places as well.

USS Theodore Roosevelt aircraft carrier COVID-19 cases delivered supporting evidence.

What Chinese saying about China



After Covid-19, China’s misplaced pandemic propaganda
Minxin Pei

March 27, 2020 7:00 AM

Barely a month ago, China was in the grip of the Covid-19 outbreak.
Thousands of new infections were confirmed every day. Hospitals were overwhelmed. People were dying by the hundreds. People couldn’t leave their homes.
But the government’s draconian lockdown seems to have worked: the outbreak now seems to be under control. And, apparently, China’s leaders have ignored its most essential lessons.



To see this, it’s worth reviewing how they handled the crisis.
Upon hearing that a new coronavirus had emerged in Wuhan in the Hubei province, local authorities’ first instinct, as we know, was to suppress the information.
Police reprimanded whistleblowers like the Wuhan-based doctor Li Wenliang, who subsequently died of the disease. (Wuhan police recently apologised to Li’s family.)
This should have motivated Chinese leaders to weigh the costs of censorship and reconsider the appointment of unqualified party members to key public-health positions.
The head of the Hubei Provincial Health Commission, dismissed during the crisis, had no medical training or experience in the public-health sector.
Moreover, some other countries, especially Singapore and Taiwan, managed to contain the Covid-19 outbreak without incurring the high costs that China did when it placed at least 760 million Chinese under varying degrees of residential lockdown.

China’s leaders should be looking to these countries for lessons on smarter crisis response.
But, far from learning from past mistakes, China’s leaders are trying to cover them up. As virtually the entire global economy effectively shuts down to contain the China-born virus, with deaths in Italy exceeding 7,500, the Communist Party of China has shifted its propaganda machine into high gear. Its goal: change the narrative of the Covid-19 crisis.
At home, this has meant touting the CPC’s leadership in mobilising the country to “win the war” against the virus.
It has also meant encouraging the spread on Chinese social media of exaggerated or outright false stories about Western democracies’ “inept” responses to the outbreak.
Abroad, China’s propaganda machine is trumpeting declining infection rates as evidence that strong centralised leadership is more effective than democratic governance.
Meanwhile, the government is sending humanitarian assistance – including health-care workers and medical supplies – to hard-hit countries like Iran, Italy, and the Philippines.
But if Chinese leaders hope to use the Covid-19 pandemic to build and project soft power, they are likely to be sorely disappointed.
For starters, the world is nowhere near ready to forget the role that its initial cover-up played in allowing the virus to spread.
The prevailing view outside China today is that, had the country’s leaders taken decisive action immediately and transparently, the current pandemic may have been avoided.
The CPC can challenge that narrative all it wants, but it cannot force international media to do the same. Chinese propaganda has never gotten much purchase in the free marketplace of ideas; indeed, most of the CPC’s previous attempts to influence international public opinion have fallen flat.
Moreover, few are tempted by a Chinese-style containment strategy.
Shutting down the entire country has cost China dearly in economic terms. First-quarter GDP is expected to plunge 9%. Should a second wave of infections strike, as is likely, repeating the same strategy would lead to economic ruin.
Of course, if this were the only way to save lives, people might be on board.
But Hong Kong, Singapore, and Taiwan all seem to have struck a better balance between protecting public health and sustaining economic activity.
Against this background, China’s humanitarian efforts will do little to repair its reputation. Yes, it is better than offering no help at all. But the country could do a lot more to bolster public health globally – beginning with sharing the massive amounts of data and knowledge it has gathered on the virus.

China could also scale up the production of protective equipment, especially hazmat suits and surgical masks.
China made half the world’s surgical masks before the Covid-19 outbreak, and it has since expanded production nearly 12-fold. If it really does have the virus under control, there is nothing stopping it from donating this life-saving equipment to hard-hit countries, which are facing severe shortages.
In particular, China should make a major donation – say, one billion surgical masks and one million hazmat suits (10 days of supply for 50,000 health-care workers) – to the United States. This could ease tensions between the two countries just enough to enable them – together with the European Union and Japan – to pursue a coordinated response to the pandemic, including action to shore up the global financial system and major stimulus packages to stave off a depression.
When this pandemic is finally over, people will remember what China did, not what it said.
It can go down in history either as the reason the Covid-19 crisis began, or as one of the reasons it ended.

the reason moslem countries spread so fast what father and brother fuck mother and daughters at home. I am sure there were kissing involved during sex.

And in turn, daughters will spread to her classmates, mothers at the market and so forth.

Race and IQ

 

[war is best form of peace]

I ask people to consider this question.

Why COVID-19 cannot spread on PLA Aircraft Carriers, but already on 2 US Navy aircraft carriers already, more will be coming.

No PLA ship ever get COVID.

PLA sent 4000 medical troops to serve in Wuhan COVID-19 hospitals, save countless lives, but ZERO SELF-INFECTIONS TOTALLY!

If you trust CCP media lies, you must be an idiot. Zero case my foot!

They fake their numbers, they fake their test kits, they even fake their cases. Only idiot believe in CCP nonsense.

Their "recovered" Wuhan virus cases now kanna reinfected but they say this is not new cases. LOL!....

At least 59% of coronavirus cases went unreported in Wuhan, study says
https://www.msn.com/en-sg/news/worl...nt-unreported-in-wuhan-study-says/ar-BB11HmXh

Around 60% of people who contracted the coronavirus in the central Chinese city of Wuhan were asymptomatic or very mild cases not reported to the authorities, according to a study led by a group of Chinese researchers.

The paper suggests that by February 18 the total number of infections in Wuhan, the first epicenter of the coronavirus, could have exceeded 125,000, more than three times the number of confirmed cases, 38,020, reported at the time.


The estimate adds to a body of research seeking to estimate the true extent of the spread of coronavirus beyond counting patients with clear symptoms of Covid-19, the disease caused by the coronavirus.

It was published on the medRxiv preprint platform early this month and has not been peer-reviewed.

The study called the asymptomatic and very mild patients “unascertained cases” and called for attention to gauge their size and transmission.

These patients “could recover without seeking medical care and thus were not reported to authorities,” the researchers said.

“We found that at least 59% of infected cases were unascertained in Wuhan, potentially including asymptomatic and mild-symptomatic cases.”

The researchers used lab tests as the basis of their assessment rather than Chinese government data on confirmed cases because the authorities used symptomatic manifestations and abnormal lung scans to classify patients.

The study uses the lab test data to create models to estimate the number of infections regardless of the presence of symptoms based on estimated rates of infections for people of different age, sex, occupation and residential districts.

The model also estimates the effect of Wuhan residents’ movement, the travel restrictions and quarantine measures on the transmission of the virus.

The paper said covert cases and their transmission had been underestimated in previous models and more evidence by recent studies, such as data from the Diamond Princess cruise ship, indicated that there was a “non-negligible” proportion of asymptomatic cases.

“Estimation of unascertained cases has important implications on continuing surveillance and interventions,” it said.

According to a report in the scientific journal Nature, Gerardo Chowell, a mathematical epidemiologist at Georgia State University in Atlanta, said the result was in the “right ballpark.”

But Chowell said the model might have overestimated the transmission and number of infections with mild or no symptoms because the model assumed that everyone in the community had the same opportunity to be in contact with anyone else, though in reality they might only have been in contact with a small number of families and friends.

China’s public data of confirmed cases does not reflect asymptomatic cases. These cases were tracked but kept under a separate category, according to state guidelines on control and surveillance published on March 7.

Wu Zunyou, an epidemiologist at the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, said on Tuesday that asymptomatic cases were identified by testing close contacts of confirmed cases. These people were quarantined in China and would not pose a threat to society, he said.

State news agency Xinhua reported on Sunday that there was a new positive case in Wuhan, but the patient was not counted as a confirmed case because he was asymptomatic and his lung scan was normal.

However, there was another new positive case in the city that had been classified as a confirmed case because the patient, although not showing symptoms, had an abnormal lung scan.

The South China Morning Post reported earlier that, according to classified government data, over one-third of laboratory-confirmed cases in China were silent carriers who were either asymptomatic or presymptomatic.

The city of Wuhan, ground zero of China’s epidemic, has reported no new CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus infections for five consecutive days as of March 23.

Locals have reported a different scenario.

Meanwhile, the Wuhan government recently explained why it refuses to count new cases of people testing positive.

China going to the aid of other countries is much appreciated and warms the heart. They will earn lots of brownie points for it. But that's not what we are talking about here. We're talking about how the CCP is suppressing numbers and blacking out news, especially when it concerns their military. We need to entertain that possibility.

Oh, and there is no God. So don't be daft.
