Someone mentioned the PLA. A few weeks ago we were treated to the sight of disciplined hordes of Chinese naval personnel jogging in formation on a new aircraft carrier. Have also seen military medical personnel jogging in formation to get onto a military transport plane. And for...what? Choreography doesn't mean core competence. The CCP worries far more about looking good than doing things right.
There's an old truism from Uncle Joe and my days: "A parade ready unit is not combat ready and a combat ready unit is not parade ready."
From what we've seen of their military, I can't stop laughing. Guys out there in Halloween costumes, not wearing their masks properly. protective gear half on or jacked up all to hell. That means they don't train with it, and if you don't train with it, you don't know how to use it. Long term familiarity is vitally important with some of your more exotic gear, especially in the NBC section.
The fogger reminds me of the DDT sprayers of yesteryear, although the DDT sprayers probably had more effect than this shit will.
We have seen the Chinese government make the worst decision they could time after time. A literal retard will get answers right eventually, but the Chinese seem incapable of it.
I mean, it's like if China was taking this test:
You see a dog with bloody foam around its mouth. Do you:
A) Pet it
B) Teach it to dance
C) Tell an adult
D) Eat it
And China shoves the test up its ass and runs naked around the classroom hooting like a monkey.
The Pollution Goblin defenders all go: "Well, what would you do, smart guy?" and the fun part is you can just BTFO their dick suckers by just saying you'd do the opposite. You hear "They studied the 1918 Spanish Flu epidemic" all the time. Well, apparently, they studied the parts where we fucked up royally and said "Hurr, ching chang chong chung" and walked into a wall because they're too stupid to remember where the fucking door is.
Open bay areas? Yeah, that was done during the Spanish Flu epidemic. In the beginning. When we didn't know what the fuck we were doing. We quickly stopped that shit. Door to door? We stopped that shit too.
But no, the Pollution Goblins just saw all the terrible mistakes and ran with them.
If we're right on target with dumbass decisions, we should have unprotected "Security Teams" or "People's Health Patrols" grabbing people physically and throwing them in the back of cattle-cars where they will be taken to "The People's Fun Time Party" never to be seen again. It's the dumbest thing they could do, barring napalming or nuking Wuhan.
So far, every country should be watching the Pollution Goblins carefully and taking notes.
This is how you DON'T address an epidemic as a modern nation.
The one thing that keeps nagging me about those shipping container built prisons hospitals is the PLA would have at a minimum Two Mobile Military Hospitals equipped to handle NBC patients. They could probably each handle at least 1000 patients. That capacity is part of their Military Doctrine. It’s part of everybody's military doctrine. So where are they? They should have been deployable in a matter of days. Why this show of building magic hospitals from shipping crates and construction trailers? Where exactly has the PLA been?
Just because it's in their doctrine (I'd love to see a translation of the doctrine they stole from other countries and misapplied) and on the paperwork doesn't mean they exist or work worth a damn. NBC units are EXPENSIVE and MMH's tricked out for NBC are even more so.
My bet is that they're saving the NBC units to protect the main Pollution Goblin hives and ocean adjacent spawning pits. There's no way they bother deploying specialized units that are gonna show the West that Pollution Goblin, not Hamburger Kingdom, culture will rule the Earth for a bunch of stick chewing mouth breathing street shitting peasants. Those units need to be where the Party Leaders are and the shipping ports are.
Besides, pretty soon they'll have enough dead bodies to be able to write POLLUTION GOBLINS NUMBAH WUN! and have it seen from the ISS, proving their domination over space and their territorial claim to the moon, since in ancient times a Pollution Goblin leader walked to the moon and back.
Man, fuck China.
