China Continues to Spread Lies and Conspiracy Theories About COVID-19

China Continues to Spread Lies and Conspiracy Theories About COVID-19

  06 Feb 2021   , ,

China’s state-run media continues to spread falsehoods and outright conspiracy theories about COVID-19. Chinese officials continue to claim that the virus emerged from a “US germ warfare lab,” and now they are casting doubt about the effectiveness of the recently rolled out Pfizer vaccine. 

The Chinese media and officials are sowing doubts about Western vaccines and the origin of the coronavirus in an apparent bid to deflect the West’s own attacks on its coronavirus response. Both issues are in the spotlight because of the rollout of vaccines globally and the recent arrival of a World Health Organization team in Wuhan, China, to investigate the origins of the virus.

Some of these conspiracy theories have found a receptive audience in China. The social media hashtag “American’s Ft. Detrick,” started by the Communist Youth League, was viewed at least 1.4 billion times last week after a Foreign Ministry spokesperson called for a WHO investigation of the biological weapons lab in Maryland.

“It’s purpose is to shift the blame from mishandling by (the) Chinese government in the pandemic’s early days to conspiracy by the US,” said Fang Shimin, a now-U.S.-based writer known for exposing faked degrees and other fraud in Chinese science. “The tactic is quite successful because of widespread anti-American sentiment in China.”

Yuan Zeng, an expert on Chinese media at the University of Leeds in Great Britain, said the government’s stories spread so widely that even well-educated Chinese friends have asked her whether they might be true.

Inflaming doubts and spreading conspiracy theories might add to public health risks as governments try to dispel unease about vaccines, she said, saying, “That is super, super dangerous.”

In the latest volley, Chinese state media called for an investigation into the deaths of 23 elderly people in Norway after they received the Pfizer vaccine. An anchor at CGTN, the English-language station of state broadcaster CCTV, and the Global Times newspaper accused Western media of ignoring the news.

Health experts say deaths unrelated to the vaccine are possible during mass vaccination campaigns, and a WHO panel has concluded that the vaccine did not play a “contributory role” whatsoever in the Norway deaths.

    1. I’ve read China is short on vaccines. Perhaps they have their sights on getting Pfizer.
      When Biden was destroying the first pipeline, which is apparently extending to all pipelines, including Alaska, China was buying up heavy oil from Venezuela, painting over China IDs on tanker ships. They are also interested in the Canadian heavy crude, if Canada would sell to them.
      Is Biden ready to resign yet, and take Harris with? I don’t know how many weeks a country can survive under his “leadership”.

      1. You are so right Vic both biden and his shower of narcissistic degenerates i.e gates the w.h.o and the rothschilds were in on with the chinese at least President Trump did what he said he was going to do an upstanding example of what a president should be and the sooner the better he is back in power so America and the rest of the world is to survive the crippling effects of this scamdemic

    2. China do not want to be accuse of anything, but he is doing it to other nations. If we have not right to say something, what right those he has? It is better to say the true and apologize, the pay for the vaccine all over the world. It is so amazing that othet nations are not holding China accountable for the disastre that this doctors made. But we aren’t ignorant about it and where the virus came from. Not one is perfect, and the more they denie it the more it will come out. Please stop pointing finger and look for the solution to stop this virus from spreading further.

  1. I was married to a Chinese woman for 7 years. She lied to me about her past and was interested only in getting a green card and money. She even demanded a weekly allowance hiding from me the fact she owned businesses and property in China. In short, she lied, cheated me costing me thousands. She was typical of Chinese, like her countrymen interested in only self and money not hesitating to lie and place false blame. We should sever all relationships with that evil Communist country before we get into an armed conflict. China is pure evil!

  2. The Chinese are continuing trying to blame the United States it started in China because they were manufacturing it and China Joe the ass puppet is already sending things over to China and wanting to get medical supplies and drugs from China and the Chinese virus came from China that ignorant ass Biden is doing trade with them bringing more of their defective and not write deadly products into this country there should be nobody from China in this country and we should damn sure not be dealing with them the entire Democrat party has been paid off by them

    1. Absolutely agree. Clearly the path of voting no longer works. Our only real option and true power lies in what we purchase and who we purchase from. Seventy-five million people walk away from fb and things will change very quickly.
      Any time God is removed from the equation freedom is lost

  4. Without God all are untrustworthy and enemies of the truth. China is full of Slaves, but so are we. Their slaves are that way by force. But we are so stupid that we willingly vote for liars, thieves, and perverts.. Therefore, we are Slaves Without Chains, but few appear to realize it. But the big question is, what are you going to do about it?
