The Evil Chinese Empire tried to conquer the world 🌎 by GermWarfare.. It's backfired. Serves right ✅️ 😏

Millions are dying from Covid in China because they don’t have a good vaccine. Not likely that Covid came from China; more likely it came from the USA. Perhaps the USA wants to kill old people so they don’t have to pay them Social Security?

Ah, I recognize that box, That's paxlovid! I had to take that when I had covid, extremely helpful medication ✌️

Always blaming black people.
