But it's not much of a weapon though. Why are the conservatives still going with this angle? Open up the country already.

Is Trump in charge? Keeping the country shut down is something Nancy Pelosi would be doing.

It's a weapon which helped propagandize fear. Notice how the vast majority of the people dying are old and/or in poor health. It's meant to do that. So, it has a high death rate among people already ready to die. Doesn't take out anything important to China (main workforce of younger people is all that matters). It takes out the old people of countries all over, making people panic and react. Which gives an easy path to blaming X world leader and getting the populace to vote for the more "anti virus" side. In this case China wants it to help get democrats in whom have closer ties to China than other groups.

bars, restaurants, schools, and fuck knows what else. I don't go outside much because of the mask fines around here.
