South Korea Sees Highest Daily Coronavirus Case Count in Three Months

With the weather getting colder these spikes in cases are occurring all over the northern hemisphere, but South Korea’s spike is way smaller than others:

South Korea’s new coronavirus cases hovered above 300 on Wednesday to reach the highest level since late August, setting alarm bells ringing over another potential wave of the pandemic.

The country added 313 more COVID-19 cases, including 245 local infections, raising the total caseload to 29,311, according to the Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency (KDCA).

The daily figure exceeded 300 for the first time since Aug. 29, with the daily caseload hovering over 200 in the last four days.

Cluster infections from private gatherings, public facilities and hospitals continued to occur in several parts of the nation, making it harder for health authorities to pin down potential cases and curb the spread of the virus.

So? Fatality rate incredibly low, an unremarkable cold really. Meanwhile, in 2019 3900 Koreans died in traffic accidents but we all still drive around. Amazing…

Too many people eat up the Chinese agitprop and believe contracting COVOD-19 (aka “the Wuhan Lung Rot”) is a 100.00% certain death sentence. Instead of a 0.03% death sentence unless you’re old, diabetic, and stuck in a Hospice in NY or NJ…

It’s no longer should it be called Wuhan virus considering that China now has it under control, versus the US which leads the world in spreading the infections around the world. The US also leads the world in the deaths. We should now call the virus, Washington Virus, since the Americans have the highest percentage of infections in the world.

Ain’t Chinese agitprop grand?

The Sino Sinus Syphilus “cases” in the US are artificially-inflated because that sells Chinese-owned newspapers, Chinese-made masks, and CCP-style lockdowns.

Same with the artificially-inflated death toll. At least four of the 1,000 names in the infamous NYT front page article died from gunshot wounds. Their respiratory distress came from lead poisoning. And Governor Fredo of NY killed 30,000 senior citizens by shoving infected patients into hospitals for the elderly.

Everyone knows Wuhan’s population went from 11 Million to 5 Million before the Chinese admitted there was a problem. But none of those people–or the missing cell phones–were ever seen again.

Running around scared of COVID-19 is something for the feeble-minded or XiNN viewers. But I repeat myself.

The higher numbers are a concern, but however if you look at the bigger picture for now it isn’t too bad.

The bigger concern is the attitude of the leftists, who believe that the Moon administration is correct in not preordering the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines since it is their belief that the vaccines will do more harm than good. (The rumor is that the Moon administration is secretly waiting for the availability of the Chinese vaccine)

With that kind of attitude, Korea will, next year, probably become the laughing stock of the fight against Covid-19 instead of the poster boy it is now.

TOK, whwn you’re right, you’re right. I hope the Wuhan Death Pox turns out to have been all fummery; but I agree that leftists in Korea and the USA who are pooh-poohing the vaccines will be the ones to blame for many, many, unnecessary deaths–as Governor Cuomo of New York has already been.

PCR false positive rate (in the US and EU) is now up to 97%. All the well-cited evidence is on Mercola dot com. I’ll skip adding the link lest this post sit in arbitration.
