It’s a familiar and ominous story. A deadly pathogen with no known cure begins spreading in China.….In 2018 and 2019, it’s an accurate description of how China has mismanaged an epidemic of African swine fever that’s on course to kill 130 million pigs — or roughly one-third of China’s herd, the biggest in the world.

Communism hates Jesus. Communism denies God. China is the world's largest communist country.

African swine fever is spreading and becoming more entrenched in China despite assurances that the situation has been brought under control according to industry insiders, with fears local authorities are covering up outbreaks while journalists are being ordered not to cover the story due to fear of spreading panic.
According to the government, the virus has spread to all provinces apart from Tibet, Xinjiang and Hainan, just seven months after the first case was confirmed last August.

The swine fever plague (there is more than one type of swine fever) is also blasting several former communist countries now rampant with Romish catholicism. Some maps may be seen here:

These are very large numbers with wild and feral populations affected as well as creatures intended for export. God has not done this for no reason.

That's an interesting map, Sister. I noticed what looked like an infestation in Luxembourg - a "country" smaller than Rhode Island - but it seems that the infected animals are over the border in the frictional country of Belgium.


It is encouraging to see how the Luxemburgish have responded to this threat to the integrity of their livestock. They are building a 5-mile fence on the border. The border is about 90 miles long, but it's a start at least.

And not for the first time. Apparently they think they're an "offshore" something-or-other being completely surrounded by rivers but it's difficult to make it out exactly. On a map. There are actual islands eager to invest your savings in both the Atlantic and Pacific oceans none of them having anything to do with Luxembourg. Mostly they do not have feral pigs.



EDIT
What exactly are they building the fence out of?

Well that would explain why they only need 5 miles of fence, if the rest of the border is all along riverbanks. Except that wild boar are pretty good swimmers. Here's one having a cooling dip in the harbor in Hong Kong.



(There seems to be some sort of water spout coming from its rear end.)

The report doesn't say. The feral beasts would just chew through wood, so I assume it must be something pretty solid that they don't like to eat, like concrete. That would be a wall rather than a fence, though. Maybe iron railings?

God is punishing China and Xi Jinping for backing out of Trump's trade deal. Just have a look at all the pork the Chinese eat - Xi Jinping is going to have riots and civil insurrection on his hands if his citizens don't get enough pork. Our Iowa farmers stand ready to export all the pork they need - if they go back and approve Trump's deal.
