A Wuhan Resident's Interpretation of the CCP Virus Pandemic

A Wuhan Resident's Interpretation of the CCP Virus Pandemic
April 05, 2020 | By a resident of Wuhan, China



After the novel coronavirus (now often referred to as the CCP virus, after the Chinese Communist Party) broke out in Wuhan, fear and panic gripped the city. A worker who transported corpses to crematories said that he and his coworkers worked from 9 a.m. until 2 a.m. every day, transporting eight bodies each trip (as compared to only one body per trip in the past).

As the epidemic intensified, some people dropped dead on the street; or one person got sick and infected their entire family; or several people in one family died of the virus within days of each other.

Facing this dire situation, many stubborn people who used to believe in the “greatness” of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) changed their mind. One man initially blamed others for “spreading rumors” on Weibo (a popular Chinese microblogging website): “If you do not believe in our nation and Party, what can you believe?!” Soon after, his relatives became infected and could not get a hospital bed. His subsequent posts were then filled with cries for help and cursing the CCP.

Li Wenliang, a doctor who was punished by the authorities for sounding the alarm about the epidemic, later died of the disease. As many people blamed the CCP online for the young doctor's death, one student wrote, “It is the virus that killed him. We should remain calm and listen to the Party.” Upon returning to his university, however, the student found that his own dorm had been re-purposed to house coronavirus patients without advanced notice.

It is relatively easy to stand with the CCP and blame others as an unaffected onlooker; but it is a totally different story when one becomes a victim of the CCP.

As the pandemic sweeps through more than 200 countries and has so far infected over one million people worldwide, it is important to analyze the situation in order to gain a better understanding of this virus.

Hardest Hit Areas

Shuiguo Lake Area is one of the hardest hit areas in Wuhan, and, in many households, almost everyone had been infected. With the Hubei Provincial government compound located here, this area is also the political, economic, and cultural, as well as the science and technology center of Hubei. Its medical staff, technology, and facilities, such as Zhongnan Hospital, are superior to other regions. How, then, can the high infection and mortality rate in this area be explained?

Looking back in history, plagues in both Eastern and Western countries often came suddenly and disappeared just as mysteriously. Previous articles published on Minghui.org about ancient prophecies or plagues in the ancient Roman Empire have shown that such diseases often target certain people at certain times.

It was said that the elderly and children have weaker immune systems and are susceptible populations. Based on statistics in Wuhan or China, however, there are many more middle-aged people who have been infected or died.

Another inconsistent aspect is the virus' spread. It is widely believed that physical contact or close proximity facilitate the transmission of infectious diseases, making isolation, along with personal protective equipment (such as gloves, masks), crucial for mitigation.

But things are not that simple. Take for example, Evagrius Scholasticus' documentation of the Plague of Justinian (541-542 AD) in Ecclesiastical History:

“Some perished by merely living with the infected, others by only touching them, others by having entered their chamber, others by frequenting public places. Some, having fled from the infected cities, escaped themselves, but imparted the disease to the healthy.

“Some were altogether free from contagion, though they had associated with many who were afflicted, and had touched many not only in their sickness but also when dead. Some, too, who were desirous of death, on account of the utter loss of their children and friends, and with this view placed themselves as much as possible in contact with the diseased, were nevertheless not infected; as if the pestilence struggled against their purpose.”

Similar things also happened in Wuhan: some people were not infected despite exposure to the virus, while some had no symptoms even after infection.
