All jokes aside, the H1N1 Spanish Flu Pandemic came from China, as did the H2N2 Asian Flu pandemic and the H3N2 Hong Kong Flu Pandemic.
Now we have the H5N1 and the latest H7N9 threats to global health and goodness know what else is in the pipeline disease wise from China - SARS was one of theirs too right? And now with Chinese New year this H7N9 is being shoved down our throats right now. And if all that is not bad enough, the Chinese economy is threatening us with another financial crisis. Chinese Death Star is right. Use the force Luke. May the Force be with us all.

i would read always twice an article, if i would have some doubts. And pls you should do same. Theories and interesting suppositions only to make another PhD somewhere in the world, with following bombastic articles is not going to be very constructive on the long therm.
Noone used the certainty in the whole article you have mentioned in your link. And stop being personal attacking other persons on this forum, it is not your wisest move, you know. And you or me personally will never own the truth, so just forget playing god around. It is only an article like other tens of articles ( ok it is a newer one, so what?). regards from transylvania

Lets put it this way.
It is widely believed the Spanish Flu came from China. I believe it did. We know the H2N2 and the H3N2 pandemics came from China. We know SARS came from China. We know the H7N9 is from China. We know H5N1 is from China. And now we have a financial calamity in the pipeline also from China. The Chinese Death Star is the point.

Kilt- It's not only possible but I believe probable that U S military personnel who were transferred from China to Camp Funston in Kansas to train the Dough Boys brought the Flu back with them. However no one can prove either theory.

The virus can be examined and that will settle it.
It makes sense to me - but my point is all the death that comes from China (even if the Spanish Flu didn't) and now a Financial Crisis. |

So, I will enter the fray here http://virus.stanford.edu/uda/ So here is the deal -- A collection of letters of a soldier stationed in Camp Funston Soldier The origins of this influenza variant is not precisely known. It is thought to have originated in China in a rare genetic shift of the influenza virus. The recombination of its surface proteins created a virus novel to almost everyone and a loss of herd immunity. Recently the virus has been reconstructed from the tissue of a dead soldier and is now being genetically characterized. The name of Spanish Flu came from the early affliction and large mortalities in Spain (BMJ,10/19/1918) where it allegedly killed 8 million in May (BMJ, 7/13/1918). However, a first wave of influenza appeared early in the spring of 1918 in Kansas and in military camps throughout the US. Few noticed the epidemic in the midst of the war. Wilson had just given his 14 point address. There was virtually no response or acknowledgment to the epidemics in March and April in the military camps. It was unfortunate that no steps were taken to prepare for the usual recrudescence of the virulent influenza strain in the winter. The lack of action was later criticized when the epidemic could not be ignored in the winter of 1918 (BMJ, 1918). These first epidemics at training camps were a sign of what was coming in greater magnitude in the fall and winter of 1918 to the entire world.Medclinician |

Substitute wet markets for training camps and 2014 for 1918? |

from the article:
Spanish flu, the global pandemic that took the lives of more than 50 million people around the end of First World War, appears to have originated in China before spreading to the wider world via trainloads of Chinese labourers that passed through Canada en route to wartime Europe, according to new research by a Canadian historian. Mark Humphries, a history professor at Memorial University of Newfoundland, has identified China as the likely epicentre of the disease. He believes it spread to Canada with members of the Chinese Labour Corps (CLC), young men recruited by the British government to replace able-bodied European workers who could then be sent to the front lines. The British shipped the Chinese replacement workers to Vancouver before sending them by rail across the country to Halifax, and then to Europe. Humphries’ study, published in the January issue of the journal War in History, says the need for new workers in Europe was desperate enough that one ship laden with 3,000 labourers left Weihaiwei, China, for Vancouver in 1918 despite a recruitment ban in China at the time because of the outbreak of a mysterious respiratory illness. “British officials knew that whatever the plague was, there were Chinese labourers sick with it,” Humphries said in an interview. “And they were being shipped across Canada.” About 50,000 Canadians would die of the contagion. Globally, an estimated three per cent of the planet’s population died between 1918 and 1920. |

It has the ring of truth to me and a genetic examination of the virus will reveal its origin in time.

The 1918 H1N1 Spanish Flu pandemic - believed to have originated in China.
The 1956 H2N2 Asian Flu Pandemic originated in China The 1968 H3N2 Hong Kong Flu Pandemic originated in China SARS originated in China The H5N1 Bird Flu originated in China The Calicivirus originated in China The H7N9 virus originated in China The H10N8 virus originated in China And they are also bringing the world a financial crisis and a global depression. China is a Death Star. |

Dang, I don't really care where it comes from. Lots of stuff starts in Africa. All I care about is SIP before it hits my family. I need to get my kid home from college before it gets bad whenever it hits, and get all my water containers filled.
Hate to sound selfish but I just want as early a warning as I can get. Does not matter who starts it...LOL! |

I don't see anything in Africa that is going around the world killing millions (AIDS Yes) like I can with China. Look at the list. Millions died and all the bugs came from China. And more will come from China because of the population and the proximity with animals and birds. |

China is building entire cities to keep their construction industry busy. They have a crash coming that will make the one the US experienced pale by comparison.

Regardless of where you or kilt or johnnyray live, it seems that you lay many of the world's ills at the feet of China.
China is an emerging economy that has only had a very recent (plus or minus 10 years) impact on economies, global warming, etc. No question it is at the epicentre of concern about emerging influenza threats, but I just don't think it is reasonable or accurate to lay all impending disasters at their feet. Referencing China as the 'Death Star' seems inaccurate at best. Btw... If you are looking for abandoned cities, there are plenty in USA. Is China's debt as a share of GDP close to that of america |

Saskabush - I'm originally from the UK.
I believe that there is good reason to be concerned. China looks after China, and the rest of the world comes a distant second. Look at the civil rights abuses currently taking place in Tibet under Chinese rule, their cruel and irresponsible farming practices (and subsequent role in the evolution of novel viruses), their appalling environmental record, the government sponsored harvesting of tissue from living prisoners, their support of the regimes in North Korea and Syria, hacking of sensitive data by Chinese authorities - the list goes on and on. While US cities like Detroit became abandoned as a result of economic collapse, China's "ghost cities" are being built in the full knowledge that they will never be occupied. They exist purely as a means to bolster the economy by keeping people employed and providing middle class Chinese with opportunities to invest. They're building 12-24 empty cities every year and that's an unsustainable policy. Their "one child policy" will be biting them in the butt in the next few decades too, as an aging population retires to be replaced by a smaller workforce. It's a demographic disaster in the making. |

My point being
H2N2 - from China H3N2 - same H5N1 - same SARS - same H7N9 - same and other still in the pipeline all from China. And as China is the 2nd largest economy in the world and have gone too far too fast and are now threatening a financial crisis that will be a knock out blow for the global economy. They are defaulting on debts right now. China Trust Defaults Seen as Coal Maturities QuadrupleThe number of trust products tied to China's flagging coal miners maturing this year will almost quadruple, as rising borrowing costs for the ...

What is this crazy death star thing??
Total bs. China has near zero debt to gdp. When I went there recently "MOST OF" the investment money from the west was pouring in. Literally ever where we looked western money building infrastructure, shops, factories, etc etc. To think China is in trouble is ridiculous. China is like the modern day equivalent of the Wild West. I urge others to visit as you cant comprehend the scale until you have seen it first hand. I suggest Shanghai. Also seeking alpha is total tripe. |
