    所有新疾病都来自中国。All new diseases comes from China. Chinese city proposes lockdowns for flu — and faces a backlash 中国城市提议封锁流感,并面临强烈反对

    While cases of Covid in China are falling, there has been a spike in flu cases across the country and some pharmacies are struggling to meet demand for flu remedies. 虽然中国的新冠肺炎病例正在下降,但全国各地的流感病例激增,一些药店正在努力满足对流感补救措施的需求。

    At the first and highest level, it says, “the city can lock down infected areas, carry out traffic quarantines and suspend production and business activities. Shopping malls, theaters, libraries, museums, tourist attractions and other crowded places will also be closed.” “At this emergency level, schools and nurseries at all levels would be shut down and be made responsible for tracking students’ and infants’ health conditions.” The backlash comes as the central government in Beijing has emphasized the need to open the country back up following the removal of all Covid restrictions in January.

    从第一层和最高层来看,该市可以封锁感染地区,实行交通防疫,并停止生产和营业活动。 商场、剧院、图书馆、博物馆、旅游景点等拥挤场所也将关闭。” “在这个紧急级别,各级学校和托儿所将被关闭,并负责跟踪学生和婴儿的健康状况。” 北京中央政府在今年1月取消所有新冠肺炎限制后,一直强调有必要重新开放国家,因此出现了反对的声音。

    Xi’an itself was subject to a draconian lockdown between December 2021 and January 2022, with 13 million residents confined to their homes for weeks on end — and many left short of food and other essential supplies. Access to medical services was also affected. In an incident that shocked and angered the nation, a heavily pregnant woman was turned awayfrom a hospital on New Year’s Day because she didn’t have a valid Covid-19 test, and suffered a miscarriage after she was finally admitted two hours later. 在2021年12月至2022年1月期间,西安本身受到严厉的封锁,1300万居民连续几周被限制在家中,许多人缺乏食物和其他必需品。获得医疗服务的机会也受到影响。在一次震惊和激怒全国的事件中,一名重度孕妇在元旦被医院拒之门外,因为她没有进行有效的新冠肺炎检测,并在两小时后最终入院后流产。

  • Chinese COVID Lab Leak Debate Resurges After New Report Drops 中国新型冠状病毒实验室泄漏争议在新报告减少后再次抬头

    Chinese COVID Lab Leak Debate Resurges After New Report Drops 中国新型冠状病毒实验室泄漏争议在新报告减少后再次抬头

    Debate about the origins of COVID-19 reemerged after The Wall Street Journal reported on Sunday that the United States Department of Energy (DOE) concluded that the virus likely stemmed from a lab leak in China.

    Sars-CoV-2—first discovered in Wuhan, China, in December 2019—has spread across the globe ever since, killing more than 6.8 million people worldwide, according to Johns Hopkins University, and having life-altering effects on many others. From the onset of the pandemic, questions emerged about the virus’ origins with two leading theories typically dominating the scientific community.

    Newsweek reported on March 27, 2020, and corroborated by two U.S. officials, that U.S. intelligence revised its January assessment in which it “judged that the outbreak probably occurred naturally” to now include the possibility that the new coronavirus emerged “accidentally” due to “unsafe laboratory practices” in Wuhan.

    The classified report, titled “China: Origins of COVID-19 Outbreak Remain Unknown,” ruled out that the disease was genetically engineered or released intentionally as a biological weapon.

    美国《华尔街日报》19日报道说,美国能源部(DOE)得出结论说,新型冠状病毒可能源于中国实验室的泄露。

    据约翰霍普金斯大学(Johns Hopkins University)统计,2019年12月在中国武汉首次发现SARS-CoV-2病毒,自此在全球范围内传播,造成680多万人死亡,并对许多其他人产生了改变生命的影响。 从大流行开始,关于病毒起源的问题就出现了,两种主要理论通常支配着科学界。

    美国《新闻周刊》于2020年3月27日报道,并得到两名美国官员的证实,美国情报部门今年1月的评估”认为,新冠肺炎可能是自然发生的”,并修改了该评估内容,以包括因武汉的”不安全实验室惯例”而”偶然”出现的可能性。

    以《中国:新冠肺炎发病原因不明》为题的分类报告书中排除了该疾病是遗传工程疾病或故意作为生物武器上市的可能性。
