I've had a crazy idea for a while that China might actually have a follow-on virus they might let go at the right moment. I'm sure it isn't likely, but it just seemed odd that they continued to do "lockdowns" in China all this time. We don't really know what they are doing and what they aren't doing, but I'm pretty sure they aren't giving the majority of their people stupid mRNA tech, which doesn't work, and likely hurts. Hurts how? Well,there is good reason to believe the mRNA makes the immune system less able to respond well to a significantly different, more dangerous, variant.
Who has mRNA crippled their own populations? Well, the entire west has gone bat-crazy with mRNA. The east? Excepting US allied countries, not so much.
As I said, just a crazy idea. I hope.
