COVID-19 Coronavirus: A Fake Pandemic? Global Economic & Geopolitical Destabilization: Economic Warfare against China
Michel Chossudovskyon
Who’s Behind It?
The media hype and disinformation campaign regarding the spread of the COVID-19 novel coronavirus have created a Worldwide atmosphere of fear and uncertainty following the launching of a global public health emergency by the WHO on January 30th.

The fear campaign is ongoing. Panic and uncertainty. National governments and the WHO are misleading the public.
“About 84,000 people in at least 56 countries have been infected, and about 2,900 have died” says the New York Times. What they fail to mention is that 98% of those cases of infection are in Mainland China. There are less than 5000 confirmed cases outside China. (WHO, February 28, 2020)
At the moment, there is no real pandemic outside Mainland China. Look at the figures.
At the time of writing, the number of “confirmed cases” in the US was 64.
The latest FluView surveillance from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports that as of January 18, 2020, there have been 15 million cases of flu, 140,000 hospitalizations, and 8200 deaths in the US this influenza season. (emphasis added
Data on the COVID-19 pandemic:
The World Health Organization (WHO) reported Saturday February 28, 2020 83,652 confirmed cases of COV-19 of which 78,961 are in Mainland China.Outside China, there are 4691 “confirmed cases” (WHO, February 28, 2020, See table on right).The WHO has also reported 2,791 deaths of which only 67 have occurred outside Mainland China.
These figures confirm that the pandemic is largely limited to Mainland China.
Moreover, recent data suggests that the epidemic in China is firmly under control. On February 21, 2020, China’s National Health Commission reported that 36.157 patients were designated as cured and discharged from hospital. (see graph below).
.
Chinese reports confirm that people have received treatment and are recovering from the virus infection. Concurrently, the number of infected patients is declining.
According to the National Medical Products Administration of China, hospitals are using Favilavir, an anti-viral drug, “as a treatment for coronavirus with minimal side effects”.
Lets Crunch the Numbers
.
The World Population is of the order of 7.8 billion.
.
The population of China is of the order of 1.4 billion.
.
The World population minus China is of the order of 6.4 billion.
.
4691 confirmed cases and 67 reported deaths (outside China) out of a population of 6.4 billion does not constitute a pandemic. 2791/6,4oo,ooo,ooo.
.
64 cases in the US which has a population of approximately 330 million is not a pandemic. (Feb 28 data)
Why the Propaganda? Racism directed against Ethnic Chinese
A deliberate campaign against China was launched, a wave of racist sentiment against ethnic Chinese is ongoing largely instrumented by the Western media but also by government agencies.
Sunnybank (suburb of Brisbane), Runcorn (suburb of Brisbane) and Eight Mile Plains are towns in Queensland which have a large percentage of ethnic Chinese-Australians. The advisory of the Department of Health intimates that all ethnic Chinese (including those born in Australia who have been never been to China constitute a health risk, they can transmit the virus to White (“Non-Chinese”) Australians.
.
Oh, and do not go to a Chinese restaurant.
.
.
The same Chinese Restaurant phenomenon is occurring across the US.
US strategies consist in using COVID-19 to isolate China, despite the fact that the US economy is heavily dependent upon Chinese imports.
.
The short-term disruption of the Chinese economy is largely attributable to the (temporary) closing down of the channels of trade and transportation.
.
The WHO Global Public Health emergency is coupled with media disinformation and the freezing of air travel to China.
.
.
Panic on Wall Street
.
Spearheaded by media disinformation, there is another dimension. Panic in the stock markets.
.
The Coronavirus fear has triggered the drop of financial markets Worldwide.
.
According to reports, roughly $6 trillion has been wiped off the value of stock markets Worldwide. The decline in stock market values so far is of the order of “15 percent or more”.
.
Massive losses of personal savings (e.g. of average Americans) have occurred not to mention corporate failures and bankruptcies.
.
It’s a bonanza for institutional speculators including corporate hedge funds. The financial meltdown has led to sizeable transfers of money wealth into the pockets of a handful of financial institutions.
.
In a bitter irony, analysts in chorus have casually linked the market collapse to the escalation of the coronavirus at a time when there was less than 64 confirmed cases in the US.
It’s not surprising that the market went down because … the virus has gotten so expanded. … ‘
.
Was it Possible to “Predict” the February Financial Crash?
.
It would be naive to believe that the financial crisis was solely the consequence of so-called market forces. The market was carefully manipulated by powerful actors using speculative instruments in the market for derivatives, including “short-selling”.
.
The unspoken objective is the concentration of Wealth. It was a financial bonanza for those who had “inside information” or foreknowledge leading up to the WHO’s decision to declare a Worldwide public emergency on January 30.
Was there Foreknowledge of the COVID-19 (nCoV-2019) Pandemic? And of its Likely impacts?
On October 18, 2019, at the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security, Baltimore undertook a carefully designed simulation of a coronavirus epidemic entitled nCoV-2019.
.
In the Event 201 Simulation of a Coronavirus Pandemic, a 15% collapse of financial markets had been “simulated”.It was not “predicted” according to the organizers and sponsors of the event, which included the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation as well the World Economic Forum.

.
The simulation conducted in October entitled nCoV-2019 was undertaken barely 2 months prior to to the outbreak of COVID-19.
The John Hopkins Pandemic Exercise simulated a stock market decline of “15% or more” (Video section 0.0 – 1’2″) which largely corresponds to the real market decline registered in late February.
( See video below).
Many features of the simulation exercise do in fact correspond to what actually happened when the WHO Director General launched a global public health emergency on January 3o, 2020.
What must be understood is that the sponsors of the John Hopkins “simulation exercise” are powerful and knowledgeable actors respectively in the areas of Global Health (Gates Foundation) and Global Economy (WEF).
.
It is also worth noting that the WHO initially adopted a similar acronym (to designate the coronavirus) to that of the John Hopkins Pandemic Exercise (nCoV-2019) before it was changed to COVID-19.
Corruption and The Role of the WHO
And what motivated WHO Director General Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus to declare the coronavirus nCoV-2019 as a “Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC)” on January 30 when the epidemic was largely confined to Mainland China?
.
The evidence suggests that WHO Director-General Tedros was serving the interests of powerful corporate sponsors.
According to F. William Engdahl, Tedros had established a long lasting relationship with the Clintons and the Clinton Foundation. He had close ties to the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.
Together with the Davos World Economic Forum (WEF) The Gates Foundation were the sponsors of the October John Hopkins 2019 nCoV-2019 “simulation exercise”.
.
“As health minister, Tedros would also chair the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria that was co-founded by the Gates Foundation. The Global Fund has been riddled with fraud and corruption scandals.
“During Tedros’ three year campaign to win the WHO post he was charged with having covered up three major epidemics of cholera while health minister in Ethiopia, mislabeling the cases as “acute watery diarrhea” (AWD)—a symptom of cholera—in an attempt to play down the significance of the epidemics, charges he denied.”(Engdahl, op. cit.)
A massive vaccine campaign has been ordered by the Director General of the WHO Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus. Numerous pharmaceutical companies are already working on the development of a vaccine.
In this regard, it is worth recalling the WHO scam during the mandate of his predecessor Dr. Margaret Chan, who stated in relation to the 2009 H1N1 Swine Flu Pandemic that:
There was no H1N1 pandemic in 2019. It was a money making scam as revealed by the European Parliament.
What’s the Next Phase of COVID-19 Pandemic? Is it Fake or is it Real?
The propaganda campaign against China is not over.
Neither is the “fear pandemic” outside China.
Moreover, the financial crisis is ongoing.
If normal US-China trade relations are not duly restored, the supply of “Made in China” consumer goods exported to America will be jeopardized. This in turn could potentially trigger a major crisis in retail trade in the US.
From a public health point of view, there are favorable prospects for eliminating the COVID-19 in China.
For the rest of the World (which currently has approximately 3000 confirmed cases) the pandemic is ongoing.
The massive WHO vaccination campaign (referred to above) was confirmed by Director General Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus on February 28 confirmed that:
“…work is also progressing on vaccines and therapeutics. More than 20 vaccines are in development globally, and several therapeutics are in clinical trials. We expect the first results in a few weeks”
Needless to say this is another financial windfall for the Big Four Vaccine producers: GlaxoSmithKline, Novartis, Merck & Co., Sanofi, Pfizer, which control 85% of the vaccine market. According to CNBC: (emphasis added)
These companies have jumped into the race to combat the deadly coronavirus, working on vaccine or drug programs. … Sanofi is teaming up with the U.S. government to develop a vaccine for the new virus, hoping its work on the 2003 SARS outbreak could speed up the process.
Merck’s vaccine business generated $8.4 billion of revenues in 2019, the segment has been growing at an annual rate of 9% since 2010, according to Bernstein.
GlaxoSmithKline said this month it is partnering with the Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations [CEPI] for a vaccine program. … CEPI was founded at the World Economic Forum (WEF) in 2017.
CEPI is the key organization, which is slated a play a key role in the development of a COVID-19 vaccine.
Of significance, CEPI was founded in Davos in 2017 by the governments of Norway and India, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the Wellcome Trust, and the World Economic Forum (WEF). Both the Gates Foundation and the WEF were partners in the John Hopkins October 2019 nCoV-2019 Pandemic Simulation Exercise.
Concluding Remarks
While COVID-19 (alias nCoV-2019) constitutes a multi-billion corporate bonanza for Big Pharma, it has also contributed to precipitating humanity into a dangerous and unfolding global process of economic and geopolitical destabilization.
