COVID Change

A transmogrification

Back on 2 Apr 2020, not much COVID death had occurred worldwide (<50,000 deaths), but that didn’t stop a “climate change advisor” to the World Health Organization — writing for the World Economic Forum — from writing about a future need to resuscitate the global economy, specifically for “environmental protection.”

Here is the COVID report card for the world on the day before he wrote the piece:

And here is perspective on the daily COVID excess death rate as compared and contrasted against the average daily excess death rate in one of the worst recent seasons of flu (2018) in one of the nations hardest hit (The Netherlands):

$64,000 Question: By 2 Apr 2020, how did this writer know that there would be a need to “resuscitate the global economy post-pandemic?”

If COVID wasn’t even as bad as severe flu by 2 Apr 2020, then it seems that the only way to know that the entire world economy would need resuscitation is if COVID was the first step in at least a two-step plan for global governance — where “authorities” get to tell you what you are allowed to own, and what you are allowed to eat, and whether you are allowed to move about, etc.

If there was a planned release of COVID, along with regimented responses worldwide, it would have been possible for this writer to know — on 2 Apr 2020 — that the entire world economy would be in need of “resuscitation” after the “pandemic.”
