A Chinese doctor that warned about the coronavirus is now dead:<\/p>\n

February 7, 2020<\/p>\n

BEIJING (AP) \u2014 China\u2019s top Communist Party investigators are looking into \u201crelevant issues raised by the public\u201d about a whistleblower doctor who was threatened by police after publicizing his concerns about the new virus and has now died from it. The party\u2019s announcement Friday came as the death toll in mainland China rose to at least 636. The outbreak has now infected more than 31,200 people worldwide.\u00a0 …<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

TREATMENT OF WHISTLEBLOWER DOCTOR INVESTIGATED<\/p>\n

Following an online uproar over the government\u2019s treatment of Dr. Li Wenliang, the ruling Communist Party said it was sending an investigation team to \u201cfully investigate relevant issues raised by the public\u201d regarding the case.<\/p>\n

Li, 34, was one of eight medical professionals in Wuhan who tried to warn colleagues and others when the government did not. He wrote on his Weibo microblog account that on Dec. 3 he saw a test sample that indicated the presence of a coronavirus similar to SARS, which killed nearly 800 people in a 2002-2003 outbreak.<\/p>\n

Li wrote that after he reported seven patients had contracted the virus, he was visited on Jan. 3 by police, who forced him to sign a statement admitting to having spread falsehoods and warning him of punishment if he continued.<\/p>\n

Li wrote that he developed a cough on Jan. 10, fever on Jan. 11 and was hospitalized on Jan. 12, after which he began having trouble breathing. His death was confirmed early Friday, prompting a deluge of messages of mourning and outrage at the way he and the seven others were treated. Even the staunchly pro-government Global Times newspaper noted the eight whistleblowers\u2019 treatment \u201cwas evidence of local authorities\u2019 incompetence to tackle a contagious and deadly virus.\u201d<\/p>\n

Most of the deaths from the virus have been of older people with existing health problems, but disease specialists said Li\u2019s work may have increased his exposure and made his illness severe.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s generally believed that an increased dose of a virus or pathogen in some persons can cause increased severity of disease,\u201d said Dr. David Heymann, a professor of infectious diseases at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine.<\/p>\n

Paul Hunter, a professor of health protection at the University of East Anglia, noted that opthamologists sit very close to their patients during examinations. \u201cOne would expect that an opthamologist would be exposed to a much higher dose of the virus if he was treating a patient who was actually infected,\u201d he said. \u201dIt\u2019s plausible his death was a dose-related issue, but we don\u2019t know for certain.\u201d https:\/\/apnews.com\/35dca0529517330f88896f3f02d1ee11<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

As long-time regular readers of this COGwriter Church of God News<\/em> page are aware, I specifically warned about risks associated with the coronavirus back in 2013 (see Coronavirus: A new risk for humans?<\/a> and Saudi Arabia warning visitors to Mecca about coronavirus risk<\/a>) and also in 2014 (see Saudi Arabia, MERS, and Missiles<\/a> and Infection-gate: A dangerous scandal hitting the USA?<\/a>). Additionally, I have also warned also about human engineered pathogens without mentioning the coronavirus in 2018 (see DARPA to weaponize insects to spread viruses across the population\u2026 sinister plans exposed by team of scientists<\/a>) and 2019 (see DARPA: \u2018Militarized Microbes\u2019 To Spread GMO Bacteria<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Many are convinced that the current coronavirus happened because of human genetic research into viruses (see Coronavirus and \u2018Burgeoning Asian Bioweapons\u2019<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Humans messing around with viruses, like what was being officially done in Wuhan, poses risks. And I have warned about those risks, including research involving the coronavirus for years.<\/p>\n

Pretty much every day, I pray and ask God to assist me choosing topics to write about. And a few times in the past, that has specifically included the coronavirus.<\/p>\n

Over 50 years ago, the late Evangelist Raymond McNair warned about humans doing dangerous pathogen research:<\/p>\n

THE DOOMSDAY BUG<\/strong><\/p>\n

There is \u2014 this very instant \u2014 a feverish international search for the ultimate \u201cdooms-day bug.\u201d The purpose? \u2014 to wipe out whole nations overnight by disease germs and chemicals. Will man\u2019s unrestrained scientific search for more horrifying weapons of mass destruction prove to be his undoing? \u2026<\/p>\n

An Ounce of Doom!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Many scientists right now are searching for new plagues with which to decimate the human population. And they are diligently seeking deadlier strains of old viruses with which to destroy whole populations. Of course, these scientists justify their CBW research by saying it is done for defensive reasons. Just how lethal are these viruses? Do you grasp the deadly potential? \u201cIn theory one gram of chicken embryo tissue inoculated with the Q-fever organism would be sufficient to infect more than one million people\u201d (We All Fall Down, Robin Clarke). It has been estimated that one fourth of an ounce would be sufficient to infect every man, woman and child living in the British Isles! That\u2019s about 55 million! Britain is especially vulnerable to chemical or germ warfare. She is thickly crowded and normal weather conditions in Britain are favorable to that type of warfare!<\/p>\n

Botulinus, which was developed during World War II, is so deadly that it could wipe out all human life in a given area within six hours \u2014 yet leaving the target area habitable immediately after the attack. But some diseases would have a more lingering effect. \u2026<\/p>\n

Few realize that far more people have died from pestilence \u2014 from sickness and various plagues \u2014 through the course of human history, than have died in actual warfare. \u2026<\/p>\n

CBW weapons are cheap to manufacture, and are comparatively inexpensive to deliver to enemy targets. A small nation could develop a whole arsenal of CBW agents and deliver them with very little strain on its budget. \u2026<\/p>\n

Scientists must bear their full share of responsibility for their part in developing more deadly and virulent microbes which could unleash horrifying disease epidemics upon this world. (McNair R. The Doomsday Bug. Plain Truth, August 1969)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Biological Warfare and Prophecy<\/a><\/h3>\n

Is biological warfare possible? Was it prophesied? Scientists have long warned that pathogenic organisms like the coronavirus could be weaponized. Furthermore, back in 2017, there were concerns that the biological research facility being constructed in Wuhan, China was risky and that a coronavirus from it could be released. On January 25, 2020, China\u2019s President Xi Jinping publicly stated that the situation with the Wuhan-related strain of the coronavirus was grave. Did Church of God writers like the late evangelist Raymond McNair warn that engineered viruses (the \u201cDoomsday bug\u201d) were consistent with prophecies from Jesus? Did a warning from CCOG leader Bob Thiel warn about risks of genetically-modified (GMO) mosquitoes come to pass? Could human research and\/or the consumption of biblically-unclean animals such as bats and snakes be a factor in current outbreaks or coming future pestilences? What about famines? How devastating have pestilences been? How devastating are the prophesied ones going to be? Dr. Thiel addresses these issues and more.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Here is a link to our video: Biological Warfare and Prophecy<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Irrespective of HOW this virus got going, the reality is that it has and has been spreading.<\/p>\n

Hopefully, the Chinese government will take proper steps to deal with the coronavirus as well as to look into what happened to Dr. Li Wenliang.<\/p>\n

Now let’s look at statements from Jesus that pestilences would come:<\/p>\n

11 And there will be great earthquakes in various places, and famines and pestilences; (Luke 21:11)<\/p>\n

8 And there will be earthquakes in various places, and there will be famines and troubles. These are the beginnings of sorrows. (Mark 13:8)<\/p>\n

35 Watch therefore, for you do not know when the master of the house is coming \u2014 in the evening, at midnight, at the crowing of the rooster, or in the morning \u2014 36 lest, coming suddenly, he find you sleeping. 37 And what I say to you, I say to all: Watch!\u201d (Mark 13:35-37)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Coronaviruses are a type of pestilence consistent with troubles and sorrows.<\/p>\n

Biblical prophecies are coming to pass.<\/p>\n

As Jesus said, “Watch!” (Mark 13:37)<\/p>\n
