China and Covid-19


When the so-called Covid-19 virus was first reported last year (2019), it was not imagined that Wuhan, the capital of Hubei province in China, was a location for the kick-off of a global pandemic. Few weeks after the lockdown of Wuhan, cases of Covid-19 infections were reported in South Korea, Italy, Spain, the UK and the United States.
What appeared shockingly suspicious was the minimal number of infections in Chinese provinces like Beijing, Shanghai, Fujian with 587, 536 and 350 cases, and eight, six and one deaths respectively. The figures are different and represent far contrasts to the number of infections and deaths in New York, Milan, London and Madrid. In the four cities, over 100,000 cases and more than 10,000 deaths have been reported in each.

A logical question that should be asked is this: how is it possible that the source country of the virus experienced less number of deaths, unlike the recipient states? Such has never been the case in the history of an epidemic or pandemic. In the case of Western African Ebola virus epidemic, states in West Africa experienced more infections than European ones. Then, Sierra Leone, Liberia and Guinea had 14,124, 10,675 and 3,811 cases. After all, the three countries are neighbouring states on the same continent. In the UK, Spain, and Italy, only a single case was reported with no death while four cases and one death were publicized in the United States.

Why is the case totally different as per the Chinese Covid-19 virus? How is it possible that Beijing and Shanghai which are 12 hours, 6 minutes (1,208.9 km) and 11 hours, 19 minutes (1,049.1 km) drives away from Wuhan (the capital of Hubei) could have 587 and 536 cases and a total of 14 deaths? If New York City, a location that is 12,043.82 km far away from Wuhan, could experience more than 100,000 cases and over 16,000 deaths, would it not be logical to affirm that the government in China had sent spreaders of the infections to the West before the schemed outbreak in China?

If London, which is more than 8,800 km away from Wuhan, had recorded more than 10,000 deaths too, would it not be right to claim that Covid-19 is a biological weapon of China to eliminate professionals in most parts of the globe for Chinese dominion to become a reality?

Whichever way China might play this, there are foreplays.

    I believe the Chinese government should be made to pay for this. The source country of any infection always record more fatality. It is very logical.

    It's not far from the truth. It is possible that they created the problem for political reasons (superiority). What I mean is, as it is spreading in other places they will want to provide a cure so the world may see them as saviour.

Psalm 23 of Nigerian Politics

To start your reading attempt of this article, you may have to switch your mind to the popular Psalm 23 in The Holy Bible because the verses below are readable in the same rhythm. Democracy is my shepherd, I shall always loot. It makes me richer than the voters; it places me above the law. It restores my position. It gives me right to oppress for oligarchy’s sake. Even though I campaign in the valleys and ghettos of hardship, I fear no opposition; for all results of elections shall comfort me. It prepares a vault of dollars on my table in the presence of the people’s cry; it anoints my foreign accounts with euro, pounds, dollars, and yen; my milk overflows. Surely, self-interest and wealth shall follow me all the days of my terms. And I shall dwell in the house of failure-politics, forever. Amen! This is the imperfect inspiration that rings without end in the minds of all failure-politicians in Nigeria. Every day, every minute, everywhere and anyhow, they recite...

The Beginning and an End

Image
Seasonality is a feature that characterises the existences of all things. The reason for this is better known to the master of all creations, Yahweh. Humans, plants and animals all exist for limited times; occupy some positions for certain reasons; authorise their views to accomplish one goal or the other; and execute certain ideas when they are alive and in the positions to do such. The end of everything is a signifier that nothing lasts forever; only God reigns for eternity. The White House When Donald Trump accepted and celebrated the announcement of his victory to be the 45th president of the United States of America in November 2016, I realized that, as a man, he lacks integrity and self-principle. Why? A man of principle and moral stand does not eat whatever he condemns. Before the election, he condemned, dented, mocked, defamed, undermined and stigmatized the constitutional electoral college system, which had been in practice for decades before he was born. In his view, popular...

A Mockable Fire Service

Image
If Nigerians who are knowledgeable about public services in the UK or/and the US are asked to make comments on the efficiency of the fire departments in the two aforementioned countries, what their responses might be could be guessed. Even if the respondents have never been to the West, a 2013 thriller titled The Call that features Abigail Breslin and Halle Berry is enough to convince anyone that public services in the US or Canada are not for jokers or façade public administrators whose priorities are self-interests and social media posts of imaginary achievements. Here is an important question that requires our attention: Is it logically possible for two fire service trucks to arrive at a scene of a fire outbreak without water two hours after emergency numbers were called? Rescuers at the scene For anyone who lives in France or the United Kingdom or even Egypt, such could be a fiction. But for residents of Lewis Street in Abule Taylor of Alimoso, Lagos, Nigeria, is ...
