US considers Covid restrictions on China arrivals – BBC News
The US and the Philippines have said they are considering new Covid restrictions on travellers from China after Beijing announced it will reopen its borders in January.
Japan, India and Malaysia have already said they will tighten restrictions on arrivals from China amid concerns about a surge in cases and lack of transparency from the Chinese government.
On Wednesday, Italy also announced plans to enforce mandatory testing on travellers from China.
Beijing said coronavirus rules should be brought in on a “scientific” basis.

The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.
“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.
In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.
He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.
Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.
Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.
The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.

Explosions have been heard near two Iranian port cities, Bandar Abbas and Bushehr, state media has reported.
It comes after another night of strikes between the US and Iran, with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps saying it hit two UAE tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and targeted US facilities in Jordan and Bahrain.
The UAE called the attack “brazen”, adding that an Indian crew member was killed and eight others were injured.
Meanwhile, the US military says it completed strikes on targets aimed at degrading “Iran’s ability to attack commercial shipping” – Iranian state media reports three people were killed.

The US military said it was carrying out a new wave of strikes on targets in Iran. It said the aim of the attacks was to degrade Iran’s ability to attack shipping in the strait of Hormuz. It came ass the US Navy resumed its blockade of Iran’s ports.
Iran said that control of the strait of Hormuz was required for its national security and it will exercise sovereignty over the key shipping lane, whatever the cost.
President Trump announced that he was scrapping a plan he had announced a day earlier, for placing a 20% toll or tariff on all cargos passing through the strait of Hormuz.

When the response was as it was and the leftist socialist governance produce such results there is no need to worry about further consequences that covid can bring, and those looking to politicize such an event are indeed people willing to let others know what they think is best.

Shutting businesses, travel restrictions, lockdowns, multiple experimental jabs, 'surgical' masks against a virus, hand 'sanitizing'……… don't you idiots realise that it's all making it far, far worse.

China's Zero Covid policy is a BIG FAIL: 5000+ of its citizens died.
US Covid Policy is the BIG WINNER: 950,000 of its citizens died.
To rub salt to the wound, when the virus weakens, China opens its borders! How selfish is that..

When everything is not transparent, those countries that require a PCR negative results in China needs to think over, if you can‘t trust their official figures, and you trusts their PCR results? What kinda logic is that?
Smart countries like Italy, Japan would do the test when they land before letting them in your country, and you can do the sequencing and testing the real variants if any and the confirmed cases, roughly half according to planes arriving in Italy.
The aim is to deter a deadly and very contangious various other than Omnicron from spreading in your country so that your health care systems get overloaded and people cannot get proper health care other than covid!
UK government? Slackish
@appleseed7613

Every country should just ban all travel from China until China gives up the data, no more working under these conditions. The communist party has no power when it comes to our health and safety.!!!!

Yeah, it’s very suspect that China took away all of its restrictions or way for its own populations right before their Chinese celebrations of their lunar new year🎉🎉🎉. After they literally have no protections at all, they trying to restart the pandemic? Block, China.!!! China has lost control. Until China can get it together and be transparent with the data. China cannot be trusted close your borders until you can come up with the data then you don’t need anything from us much less ask us to send our people there to be your tourists. We’re not gonna dump money into your economy when you’re on people are dying.

Stop listening and believing the mainstream bs people please, especially anything the BBC report. Its lies, they are brainwashing you with misinformation.
When FAUCI tells all coroners globally NOT to perform autopsies. You should be looking into this and asking the question – why?
Answers are in the link ! Educate yourself to the truth.
