The #coronavirus was tailored to be a biological weapon targeting #China's economy, not a weapon that kills the most people.
The virus was intended to paralyze China's economy, isolate China from the world by forcing its borders closed, and thus ending China's "Belt and Road Initiative".
It was released at China's transport infrastructure crossroads timed to coincide with the massive travel period that accompanies China's New Year holidays so that it would spread to all corners of the country before they knew what hit them.
Far from reacting too late, as the narrative is spun in the West, the Chinese response was remarkably swift and effective, treating the appearance of the virus as the biological attack that it actually was.
It is important for people to realize that "trade wars" are the same thing as "real" wars that people normally associate with bombs and bullets and napalm and such, but just at a different stage of the conflict. All wars are about economics. All of them.
The choice of weapons used in the war, whether they be sanctions or machine guns, depends upon what is available and what the aggressor can afford to use at the time.
The trade war that the US launched against China is a fight to the death for the American empire. If America loses in this conflict then the American empire is finished, and the western oligarchy knows it.
The petrodollar? Gone. The dollar's reserve currency status? Gone. The ability to print dollars to pay for aircraft carriers and military bases and subsidize failing strategic industries and buy giant wall-sized TVs? All gone.
It needs to be repeated: America's "trade" war against China is a fight to the death.
It is a fight that America was and still is losing.
It is a fight that America was and still is losing.
Who imagines that America will go gentle into its coming night? Who truly thinks America will not do everything in its power to try and hold its hegemony together for just a little longer?
Who thinks that America wouldn't use "kinder and gentler" biological weapons to try and pull the economic rug out from under a rising global power that is destined to supplant the US?
The US has resorted to such weapons in far less crucial conflicts. To think the US wouldn't use them now when confronted with the mortality of its empire is a naivete that borders on infantile. valtinsblog.blogspot.com/2017/04/reveal…
So America bio attacked China, but has been crippled by the blowback from its own weapon. The whole point of using the coronavirus was to bend the curve of changes in global economic power back in favor of the US, but now America is falling even further behind China.
For the American empire then, the very biggest imperative at the moment is to "re-open" its economy and try to reduce the rate at which it is losing ground.
Remember that this is in a fight to the death.

What is the mass media's duty to its country in a war?
To convince the media consumers of whatever is necessary to achieve victory.
The only hope for victory is reliant upon the American population returning to work as soon as possible, regardless of the risks.

Thus it is now the mass media's duty to minimize the risk and promote an air of normalcy, even though the virus continues to rage unrestrained through the population.
