China is the target of a biowarfare, right after Iran (killing General Soleimani, jamming it's airdefence, etc..), North Korea must expect to be the next in the shoot list!
Below the smoking gun, with new interesting elements, but wrong conclusion. China is the target of some hyperpower's warfare for sure.
Uncanny similarity of unique inserts in the 2019-nCoV spike protein to HIV-1 gp120 and Gag
January 31, 2020
doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/2020.01.30.927871
Abstract
We are currently witnessing a major epidemic caused by the 2019 novel coronavirus (2019- nCoV). The evolution of 2019-nCoV remains elusive. We found 4 insertions in the spike glycoprotein (S) which are unique to the 2019-nCoV and are not present in other coronaviruses. Importantly, amino acid residues in all the 4 inserts have identity or similarity to those in the HIV-1 gp120 or HIV-1 Gag. Interestingly, despite the inserts being discontinuous on the primary amino acid sequence, 3D-modelling of the 2019-nCoV suggests that they converge to constitute the receptor binding site. The finding of 4 unique inserts in the 2019-nCoV, all of which have identity /similarity to amino acid residues in key structural proteins of HIV-1 is unlikely to be fortuitous in nature. This work provides yet unknown insights on 2019-nCoV and sheds light on the evolution and pathogenicity of this virus with important implications for diagnosis of this virus.

Trump likens North Korea talks to 'beautiful game of chess'
05:01 January 16, 2020
U.S. President Donald Trump said Wednesday he views the on-again, off-again nuclear talks with North Korea as a "beautiful game of chess."
He continued: "It's all a very, very beautiful game of chess, or game of poker, or -- I can't use the word checkers because it's far greater than any checker game that I've ever seen, but it's a very beautiful mosaic."
Trump appeared to describe North Korea and China as players in the game in which the U.S. ultimately seeks to dismantle Pyongyang's nuclear weapons program.
As North Korea's biggest ally and trading partner, China is seen as having considerable influence over Pyongyang's decisions.

He first demonstrated to its domestic audience, during the entire year of 2019 that to deal with North Korea, diplomacy was inappropriate. First with the fruitless February Hanoi summit, then again with the October Stockholm talks. Both a total waste of time and credibility.
Therefore, the use of a new way of approach, that should finally bring North Korea to its knees. And finally impose the Libyan deal (dismantlement of all nuclear facilities and weapons first before any sanction relief).
It will be known as the Trump's three strikes strategy.
This new way of approach introduced by Trump on the start of January 2020, with the assassination of Iran's top general, Qassem Soleimani was intended to intimidate North Korea, showing that the U.S. would not hesitate to conduct decapitation operation as previously threathened repeatedly in past years.
Then the second move of Trump was to strike at the soft belly of the North Korean behemoth.
North Korea Depends Heavily on Chinese Tourists
December 16, 2019 13:28
North Korea has narrowly avoided economic collapse amid international sanctions thanks to tourists from China.
Statistics Korea on Friday said the North's economy shrank an estimated 4.1 percent in 2018, the biggest fall since 1997.
In 2018, North Korea's GDP stood at W35.9 trillion, a mere 1/53 of South Korea's W1,898.45 trillion (US$1=W1,174).
Due to the sanctions, North Korea's total trade amounted to just US$2.84 billion last year, about half of 2016's $5.55 billion or a mere 1/401 of South Korea's $1.14 trillion.
North Korea's exports plunged to a record-low $243 million, down a whopping 86.3 percent on-year.
But the nation managed to avoid the worst thanks to tourism from China. Back in July, North Korea's State General Bureau of Tourist Guidance told China's Xinhua News Agency that 200,000 foreigners visited North Korea last year, 90 percent of them Chinese.
And this year, the number of Chinese visitors to North Korea is estimated at over 1 million.

North Korea's Foreign Reserves Running out
January 29, 2020 11:18
North Korea's foreign exchange reserves are dwindling rapidly in the wake of international sanctions, which could lead to an economic crisis that will send prices and the foreign exchange rate soaring, the Bank of Korea here predicted.
In a report on Tuesday, the BOK said North Korea's U.S. dollar reserves were estimated between US$3.01 billion and $6.63 billion as of 2014.
But now they are shrinking. Moon Sung-min of the BOK said. "At the initial stage, foreign exchange reserves held to keep the value of a currency begin to shrink. Then there's a middle stage where part of foreign reserves held for trade and financial transactions take a dive, and at the final stage they run dry."
The North Korean economy still seems to be at the initial stage, but according to various studies, North Korea's foreign reserves have shrunk by $2 billion a year since sanctions were imposed in 2017, so there is the possibility that all of them will run out around the end of this year.
"If the exchange rate and prices soar in North Korea, then it's a sign of dollar reserves running dry," Moon said. "In this case, North Korea could face a situation similar to a financial crisis."

North Korea Halts Trade with China Amid Coronavirus Fears
January 30, 2020 10:28
North Korea has suspended trade with China and its consulates there stopped issuing visas Tuesday amid the rapid spread of coronavirus.
Trade with China is virtually the nation's sole economic lifeline, which suggests how desperate it is to prevent the outbreak from spreading through North Korea, which lacks medical facilities and supplies to deal with any epidemic.
All cargo traffic from the Chinese border town of Dandong to Sinuiju has been blocked since Tuesday. Radio Free Asia quoted a source in North Pyongan Province as saying the customs checkpoints have not officially closed but are letting no cargo trucks through.
A source in the Chinese city of Shenyang told RFA that the North Korean Consulate there put up a notice on Monday that it would not issue visas.
Earlier, the nation banned all Chinese tourists and made it mandatory for all foreigners arriving via China to be kept in quarantine for a month and undergo health checks.
North Korea has a poor epidemic control system that could collapse if its quarantine seals are broken, a former Unification Ministry official here said.
The North Korean state media are stressing the need every day to block the spread of the new virus under any circumstances.

A 44-year-old man in the Philippines has died of the coronavirus, health officials said on Sunday, making him the first known death outside China. The man, a resident of Wuhan, China, the epicenter of the virus, died on Saturday after developing what officials called “severe pneumonia.”
“This is the first known death of someone with 2019-nCoV outside of China,” the World Health Organization’s office in the Philippines said in a statement, using the technical shorthand for the coronavirus.
Philippines health officials said the man had arrived in the country on Jan. 21 with a 38-year-old woman who remains under observation.
How Bad Will the Coronavirus Outbreak Get? Here Are 6 Key Factors
Here’s what early research says about how the pathogen behaves and the factors that will determine whether it can be contained.
“In his last few days, the patient was stable and showed signs of improvement; however, the condition of the patient deteriorated within his last 24 hours, resulting in his demise,” the health secretary, Francisco Duque III, said.
Hours before the death was announced, the Philippines said it was temporarily banning non-Filipino travelers arriving from mainland China, Hong Kong and Macau.
Mr. Duque said the Philippines was currently observing 23 people who had been isolated in hospitals with possible coronavirus symptoms.
“The new developments warrant a more diligent approach in containing the threats of the 2019-nCoV,” he said.
The death toll passed 300, with more than 14,000 infections confirmed.
Chinese officials on Sunday reported a surge in new cases.
◆ The death toll in China rose to at least 304.
◆ More than 2,000 new cases were also recorded in the country in the past 24 hours, raising the worldwide total to nearly 14,380, according to Chinese and World Health Organization data. The vast majority of the cases are inside China; about 100 cases have been confirmed in at least 23 other countries.
◆ All of China’s provinces and territories have now been touched by the outbreak.
◆ Countries and territories that have confirmed cases: Thailand, Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore, Taiwan, Australia, Malaysia, Macau, Russia, France, the United States, South Korea, Germany, the United Arab Emirates, Canada, Britain, Vietnam, Italy, India, the Philippines, Nepal, Cambodia, Sri Lanka, Finland, Sweden and Spain.
◆ Cases recorded in Thailand, Taiwan, Germany, Vietnam, Japan, France and the United States involved patients who had not been to China.
◆ China has asked the European Union for help in purchasing urgently needed medical supplies from its member countries, the China’s official Xinhua news agency said on Saturday.
Coronavirus Map: Tracking the Spread of the Outbreak
The virus has sickened more than 14,500 people in China and 23 other countries.
China reports an outbreak of a different sort: bird flu.
China has announced that it is dealing with another disease outbreak, this one mostly affecting animals, but also potentially deadly among people.
The Ministry of Agriculture said late Saturday that a fresh outbreak of a lethal form of influenza had been found in poultry in the southern province of Hunan, and that officials had ordered the slaughter of 17,828 chickens.
China has previously dealt with several bird flu outbreaks — the most recent was in April 2019. In the new case, the H5N1 bird flu virus was found at a farm in the city of Shaoyang. The farm had 7,850 chickens, and more than half have died from the bird flu, the ministry said. It called the strain “highly pathogenic.”
Although bird flu poses more of a danger to poultry than humans — it’s not easily transmissible among people — the World Health Organization has called on countries to be on guard because the virus can mutate into a transmissible form and has the potential to cause a pandemic.
The latest outbreak comes as China grapples with an African swine fever epidemic that has infected tens of thousands of pigs. It could stoke more worries among its people about the country’s food supply.
The list of countries restricting visitors from China grows.
New Zealand on Sunday became the latest country to impose restrictions on travelers from mainland China, saying it would deny entry to visitors departing from or transiting through the mainland for two weeks starting on Monday.
Citizens and residents will be allowed entry to New Zealand, but will be required to quarantine themselves for 14 days, Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said.
“Ultimately, this is a public health decision,” she said, adding that the restrictions were precautionary measures to keep the country virus-free and to contain the worldwide outbreak.
The government will also send a charter flight with an Air New Zealand crew to repatriate up to 300 citizens in Wuhan.
The Philippines, the United States and Australia have also expanded travel restrictions, temporarily banning noncitizens who have recently traveled to China.
South Korea and Japan are barring noncitizens who had traveled recently to Hubei, the province at the center of the outbreak. Taiwan is denying entry to Chinese nationals from Guangdong, a southern coastal province that has also been battered by the virus, or travelers who have recently visited the area.
Vietnam recently barred almost all flights to and from mainland China, Hong Kong and Macau until May 1, according to the United States Federal Aviation Administration. But Vietnam then partly eased its ban, allowing flights from Hong Kong and Macau to continue, while keeping the prohibitions in place for mainland China, aviation authorities said.
Hong Kong medical workers threaten to strike Monday.
As many as 9,000 medical workers in Hong Kong have pledged to strike this week, a threat that alarms the territory’s officials as they are struggling to contain the coronavirus outbreak.
The workers are demanding that Hong Kong close all border checkpoints to visitors from mainland China, saying they represent a threat to health care workers in the city. They are planning to paralyze nonemergency and then emergency services at hospitals, a union formed during the city’s anti-government protest movement said.
“We believe such actions are our last resort,” the Hospital Authority Employees Alliance wrote in a statement Saturday night.
Under the plan, nonessential hospital staff members who belong to the union would not go to work on Monday. If the government failed to close the border and heed their other demands by 9 p.m., union members handling emergency services would also strike, the union said.
Matthew Cheung, Hong Kong’s No. 2 official, appealed to medical workers to reconsider, comparing them to guardians of the public.
“At this critical moment, I believe the general public would count on medical personnel to fight against the epidemic together, in the spirit of professionalism,” he wrote in a blog post Sunday.
Hong Kong confirmed its 14th coronavirus case late Saturday. The patient, an 80-year-old man, had traveled for a few hours to mainland China in early January, and later spent several days in Japan.
In arguing against the job action, government officials say that the number of visitors from the mainland and other countries has decreased significantly after they closed several border points and rail stations and cut flight arrivals by half.
But several border points remain open, and many medical workers fear being overwhelmed by a flood of visitors seeking treatment in Hong Kong’s well-regarded health care system. They have also voiced frustrations about patients from mainland China hiding their travel and medical history, potentially endangering other patients.
how is this chinese man got into philippines in the first place??? didn't PH govt already issued ban of flight in and out of china???

So anyone who speaks well of China is a bot? Then I feel really sorry for you.
I should say, you're a brown bot too because you speak against China?

You got to understand people are not stupid to believe the propaganda. That's why nobody buys this 'everything is a fine drama'. You even tried hastily to stop WHO from declaring emergency last week but was forced to do it later.
Even your whataboutery is weak. Try harder next time. So far you have not denied any claims I made, you simply bring up random videos of some idiot white dude who kiss CCP arse.

Yes but control is also important, I have all the sympathies with our boys and girls in Wuhan, but if this enters Pakistan general population, we WILL NOT be able to cope with it! Honest opinion!

The worst is yet to come.
All foreigners should leave China immediately.
There is no cure yet. The virus is very infectious. A vaccine is still months or years away.
There are still enough space for factories in Vietnam.
the weather is better.
The food is better.
Plus a bonus: we don’t want to conquer and enslave the world.
