I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again nothing the Chinese communist government says can be trusted and there is still a possibility this was a weapon grade virus plan gone amuck, thus all the Main Stream Media cover stories mainly projected by the Communist Chinese government and their partner in crime the MSM always out to cover the asses of all the crooked US politicians and corporations that have sold America out and have been lining their pockets with billions! But, in truth to fact currently as I also stated previously this is all being driven as a propaganda instrument to control the masses and also hurt President Trump along with his administration. In this regard it’s “the same old same old” or “same shit different day” of the MSM and Dem party attempting to weaponize anything, from accusations to total hearsay and Schiff like imaginary narratives, attempting to create reality out of fantasy to use against their adversaries.
This highly regarded Virologist in Israel, Professor Jihad Bishara, director of the Infectious Disease Unit at Petah Tikva’s Beilinson Hospital, has stated that this Wuhan Virus or COVID-19 is not as bad as the common flu which is much more highly adaptable and intelligent than this current one that has the world going into lockdown mode, which is way over the top as a preventative measure. Remember, the Dems live and act like heathen self-serving godless people so with hardly any conscience to speak of they have no qualms with generating panic or hysteria if it will enhance their own bottom line which is always a corrupted one! People who become pathological liars do so because they have told so many lies they must continue to lie in order to cover the fact of their previous lies and not be found out.
“Oh, what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive!” (Sir Walter Scott, 1808).
Here are a few highlights of what the Professor had to say to The Times of Israel.
“I’ve been in this business for 30 years,” Bishara said in a Channel 12 interview. “I’ve been through MERS, SARS, Ebola, the first Gulf war and the second, and I don’t recall anything like this. There’s unnecessary, exaggerated panic. We have to calm people down.”
“People think this virus is going to attack them all, and then they’re all going to die,’ says Prof. Jihad Bishara. ‘Not at all. In fact, most of those infected won’t even know it”
“People are thinking that there’s a kind of virus, it’s in the air, it’s going to attack every one of us, and whoever is attacked is going to die,” he said.
“That’s not the way it is at all. It’s not in the air. Not everyone [who is infected] dies; most of them will get better and won’t even know they were sick, or will have a bit of mucus.”
“But in Israel and around the world, “everybody is whipping everybody else up into panic — the leaders, via the media, and the wider public — who then in turn start to stress out the leaders. We’ve entered some kind of vicious cycle.”
“He urged the public to internalize that “we’re talking about a virus that is not airborne. Infection is via droplet transmission… Only if you are close to someone who has the virus, and you get the saliva when he sneezes or coughs, can you get ill. And if you don’t then maintain personal hygiene,” primarily by washing hands.”
“He said the virus did not appear to be “too intelligent” — unlike flu, “which is very intelligent, it changes, adapts, and it infects people via their airway passages.”
“Bishara said some of the harsh steps taken in Israel — which has essentially closed its borders, limited gatherings to no more than 10 people, closed all educational facilities, and shut down malls, restaurants and places of entertainment and culture — were motivated by the leaders’ acknowledged awareness that the Israeli health system will buckle under any further strain.”
“People can die from the coronavirus just like people die every year from the flu and other respiratory illnesses but that doesn’t mean everyone who gets it will die. As a matter of fact, most people will recover and move on with their lives just fine.”
“The mass panic and shutting down of society is truly way over done. It boggles the mind.”
Hopefully, some if not all of this information I’ve provided in this article, has been helpful at least in a small way, in alleviating much of the fear and hysteria that many if not all of you have either experienced firsthand or are observing in others around you! God Bless.

P.S. A caveat to all of this is America MUST stop being dependent on Chinese manufacturing or on that “government for anything” as they can never be trusted; and, let’s start doing our own here in the United States; as we were once the top manufacturing engine bar none, in the world, and there is no reason we can’t regain a huge portion of that production again., while doing for our own and providing many good permanent career jobs! Our President Trump is moving full steam ahead to do just that for the American people! Perhaps, in the final analysis of this entire virus scare it will have served to give America the Wake-Up Call it sorely needed!

Hi Lawrence !
Great post. Thanks for sharing the information from Israel.
We already live in isolation here, at the edge of North America.
But even as isolated as we are, this has affected us too. Because Japan is not buying snowcrab, our fisherman will not be going out, and our crab processing plant will not be running this year.
Even in our tiny town, you can feel the tenseness people are feeling.
As for me, I am doing what I usually do – spending time in my prayer chair perched high above the Atlantic, praying for God’s mercy.
In the words of St. Faustina :
‘ For the sake of his sorrowful passion, have mercy on us and on the whole world ‘. 🤗

Hi Sally, thank you for this lovely message of hope in spite of the difficulties and hardships so many are going through around the planet including folks like you in that serene quiet corner on the planet where even there this mass health event is putting fear, anxiety, paranoia and even outright confusion into people’s minds and hearts which is either driving them closer to the Lord or deeper into the secular societal abyss that the human race has allowed to take hold of our thinking and perspective as the human race. Corruption is at the heart of this and the worldwide corruption that has taken control of the elite, governments and the masses is draining away humanity within the hearts and souls of far too many people to the point where mind games and mass manipulation are now out of control! I have to ask this minute; who do we trust, and who can we really trust anymore? How can we have faith in our systems and leaders or the status-quo to just take care of itself and us in the process? How can we when so many powerful groups or nefarious governments are poisoned with absolute evil that has no interest in kindness or compassion, but only power and control and will do anything to have it and maintain it? Yet that is the opposite of what Jesus Christ told the world is so lacking and that most important is to love your enemies and to do good to those who harm you! I see how we have to consider what God said to us more now than ever before because I was speaking to a priest friend the last few days here and there as we could, But instead I’m seeing the human race has generally turned its back on Him! I’ve been blessed by God to have this wonderful priest friend as an ally that has given hours on end of time to talk over years many countless times, even when so much was going on in his daily affairs with doing the work of the Church and serving the community. I had so many major questions I wanted answered and I know I can trust him to give me the straight dope and at least tell me what he honestly thinks and understands having so much knowledge, wisdom and faith, even providing Mass in both English and Latin when Church is open! One thing stood out in today’s conversation, how the human race has been in major horrific crises many times and horrible things were happening on a global scale which eventually we all got through after much suffering and unfortunately many deaths of so many people that didn’t need to die before their time it seems! But, tonight I was thinking all of that over again and considered how the world has never been poised as it is now with this much vitriol, division and outright hatred of good people even, or anything that doesn’t fit into the lifestyle of those doing the most hating! This division is not just between nations; but is rampant throughout communities, between neighbors and even families! The biggest worry I get from this scenario is that I do believe we are all being manipulated and that could cut both ways; where it will all work out for the better at the end of the crisis or it could leave the human race even further conflicted and hateful, opening the door to yet unseen horror and evil from hell itself; and we are a nuclear armed race of beings now, so even aside from the hope my priest friend conveyed I see the dire straits we are in; thus ships come to mind and ships in the battle mode ready to launch attacks and wreak havoc and destruction on any perceived threat or adversary. And, making it worse is all of this turmoil takes the hair trigger the human race seems to be bringing into the equation and only making it that much more flimsy to the point where it won’t take much to drop the hammer! So, you are absolutely right to pray as you are and St. Faustina’s words are so very appropriate and more of us should make this plea as we pray to our Lord and all his saintly instruments whose task it is to give us aid and assistance in accordance with His will. We’re in big trouble and sometimes during desperate times and measures the best in some people can come out and make the difference too; so that is what I see in some of our leadership presently and in some individuals like you and my friend the priest. But, will it be enough I ask? We need miracles in a huge way! I’m watching a movie “John Q” over again now which is very emotional to me, it’s a tear jerker interesting story which stars Denzel Washington who I met years ago doing some work on a film set in NYC. I like his work ethics and family values. The movie relates to the theme of desperate people in very desperate circumstances and what can happen might be over the top; but is necessary at times. I like too that Denzel actually comes from a very strong Christian family his dad actually having been an ordained Pentecostal minister, so right now this movie and the star in it does have along with the story line, a powerful faith effect, and there’s a line in the movie that says it best! “Let go and let God.” I’m going back to the movie for a while now! Thanks for these wonderful words and I will reflect upon them more praying after the movie!
“For the sake of his sorrowful passion, have mercy on us and on the whole world.”
Thank you Sally! 🤗
