WHO World Health Organization declares China coronavirus that’s killed 171 a global health emergency

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

The World Health Organization said the fast-spreading Wuhan coronavirus that’s infected more than 8,200 across the world is a global health emergency — a rare designation that helps the international agency mobilize financial and political support to contain the outbreak.

The longer the Wuhan coronavirus from China escalates, the more information comes out about it. As the number of infected is nearing towards 10,000, the World Health Organization has declared it to be a global emergency. Time to panic, or is it just another over-hyped news story like the Ebola outbreak was? Will it disappear as fast as that one did? Questions, questions, and very little real answers.

Conspiracy theories are swirling like the wind, things like Bill Gates owning the patent on the coronavirus, which he doesn’t. His charitable group helps to fund the Pirbright Institute which does own a patent on a strain of the coronavirus, but coronavirus is not an actual strain it’s a classification which includes many strains of it. There is no patent filed for the Wuhan coronavirus that is currently causing all the trouble. So how do we view this?

I view it as the birth pangs of a sin-cursed world that is getting ready for be plunged into the greatest time of trial and tribulation it has ever seen. In the end, I really don’t care if it was made in the and intentionally released for population control, or just a natural part of the myriad virus that infect this world on a daily basis and every once in a while one goes big. Does it really make a difference? I don’t think it does. We need to keep the main thing the main thing, and remember that every day we encounter lost souls who, like Kobe Bryant, are getting ready to leave this world unawares and we need to tell them of the Saviour who can change their eternity. That’s the main thing.

The World Health Organization has declared the coronavirus to be a global emergency, but lost people dying and going to Hell is much worse of an emergency.

World Health Organization declares China coronavirus that’s killed 171 a global health emergency

FROM CNBC: The announcement from the World Health Organization comes just hours after the U.S. confirmed its first human-to-human transmission of the virus, which has killed at least 171 people in China and has now spread to at least 18 other countries.

Since emerging less than a month ago in Wuhan, China, the coronavirus has infected more people than the 2003 SARS epidemic, which sickened roughly 8,100 people across the globe over nine months. As of Thursday, there are at least eight cases in four countries, outside of China, of human-to-human transmission of the new coronavirus.

“Over the past few weeks we have witnessed the emergence of a previously unknown pathogen that has resulted in an unprecedented outbreak,” WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said during a press conference at the organization’s Geneva headquarters on Thursday. “We must act together now to limit the spread.”

WHO defines a global health emergency, also known as a “public health emergency of international concern,” as an “extraordinary event” that is “serious, unusual or unexpected.”

The “continued increase in cases and the evidence of human-to-human transmission outside of China are, of course, most deeply disturbing,” Tedros said in a separate press conference on Wednesday. “Although the numbers outside China are still relatively small, they hold the potential for a much larger outbreak.”

The illness produces a range of symptoms, with about 20% of the patients developing severe illnesses, including pneumonia and respiratory failure, he said. While the WHO doesn’t enact global health emergencies lightly.

The World Health Organization has only applied the emergency designation five times since the rules were implemented in the mid-2000s. The last time WHO declared a global health emergency was in 2019 for the Ebola outbreak in eastern Congo that killed more than 2,000 people. The agency also declared global emergencies for the 2016 Zika virus, the 2009 H1N1 swine flu and the 2014 polio and Ebola outbreaks.

One of the criteria used to determine whether the coronavirus is an international health threat is whether the disease spreads locally once it arrives in new parts of the world, “and that’s a nuanced and important distinction to make,” Dr. Mike Ryan, executive director of the WHO’s health emergencies program, told reporters on a call last week.

The other main criteria is whether it’s already interfered or will likely interfere with trade and travel, he said. The WHO committee’s goal, he said, is to contain an outbreak without needlessly disrupting economic activity just by declaring a global health crisis.

The WHO declined at two emergency meetings last week to declare the virus a global health emergency.

Tedros said Thursday that the declaration doesn’t mean the agency has a “vote of no confidence in China.” He congratulated the Chinese government for their efforts to contain the outbreak despite the potential economic impacts.

“Our greatest concern is the potential for the virus to spread to countries with weaker health systems and which are ill-prepared to deal with it,” Tedros said.

Declaring an emergency doesn’t give the WHO extra funding or power, but it allows Tedros to make recommendations, including whether countries should impose travel or trade bans. It can also mobilize public health resources and galvanize public and political action, said Lawrence Gostin, a professor and faculty director of the O’Neill Institute for National and Global Health Law at Georgetown University.

“It signals that the world must be on the alert for a major event,” he said. Tedros said the agency doesn’t recommend trade or movement restrictions.

“There is no reason for measures that unnecessarily interfere with international travel and trade,” he said. “This is the time for facts, not fear. This is the time for science, not rumors. This is the time for solidarity, not stigma.”

Coronaviruses are a large family of viruses that usually infect animals but can sometimes evolve and spread to humans. The new virus is similar to the flu and can cause coughing, fever, breathing difficulty and pneumonia. READ MORE

The Trump Tariffs Have Almost Zero Impact On Foreign Nations With The Bulk Of The Tax Being Paid By The American Consumer And Small Business Owners

Published

1 day ago

February 23, 2026

Geoffrey Grider

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

96% of the Trump tariffs are not paid by any foreign nation, they are paid by the American importer with the costs passed immediately to the US consumer

In George Orwell’s ‘1984’, we read about something called ‘doublespeak’. Doublespeak is language deliberately designed to disguise, distort, or reverse the meaning of words, often used by institutions to make negative actions appear positive or to render critical thought impossible. Some good examples of this would be a leader preaching peace while preparing for war, or a government promising the people economic freedom while raising their taxes. This, as you shall see, is the demonic logic behind Trump’s tariffs, which is actually a tax on the American people, and not on foreign nations.

“Buy the truth, and sell it not; also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding.” Proverbs 23:23 (KJB)

Maybe you’re one of Trump’s Q or MAGA followers who have been wildly cheering as he has imposed crippling tariffs on the ‘foreign nations’ that have been ‘ripping us off’ for many years. But perhaps in all the jubilation and celebration, you never took the time to understand exactly what Trump’s tariffs actually are. In fact, President Trump built much of his economic message around the promise that foreign nations would “pay” for unfair trade. Yes, it was strong rhetoric, it resonated, and it sounded like long-overdue leverage. It sounded like winning! But the structure of those tariffs tells a very different story — one that slaps the American consumer right between the eyes at it reaches for his wallet.

When Trump orders tariffs, the U.S. government charges American importers at the port of entry. Did you get that? Foreign nations are not paying, the American companies doing the importing are paying. Those American companies then raise prices to cover the added cost. Retailers raise prices. Manufacturers raise prices. And the American family standing in the checkout line absorbs the impact. This is actually how Trump’s tariffs operate. Is there anything in that you find worthy of applauding?

Under Trump’s tariff regime, costs rise across supply chains:

Steel tariffs increase construction costs.
Component tariffs increase manufacturing costs.
Consumer goods tariffs increase retail prices.
Agricultural retaliation harms American farmers.
And when prices rise, it’s not Beijing tightening its belt. It’s the American middle class.

Trump positioned tariffs as a tool of strength — a weapon to force foreign governments to the negotiating table. But strength on a podium is not the same thing as strength at the grocery store. Every time tariffs broaden, they function as a hidden tax embedded in everyday purchases. If the federal government collects billions in tariff revenue under Trump, that revenue didn’t come from overseas treasuries. It came from higher prices paid by Americans somewhere in the chain. That money originated here. You cannot slap broad tariffs on a globalized supply chain and expect the cost to evaporate.

American manufacturers who rely on imported inputs don’t magically become more competitive when those inputs get more expensive. They either:

Raise prices,
Cut margins,
Reduce payroll,
Or relocate operations.

That’s not economic revival, that’s economic pressure. Trump argues tariffs defend American industry. But across large segments of the economy, they operate like a regressive tax — disproportionately impacting working-class families who spend a larger share of their income on physical goods. The irony is sharp: a policy framed as economic nationalism ends up taxing the very nation it claims to protect.

The very gay US Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent was asked a very simple question – “who pays Trump’s tariffs?” Watch as he is literally unable to form the words needed to answer that question. This is how liars act when confronted. US consumers pay the tariffs. pic.twitter.com/uknjitrPrl

— Now The End Begins (@NowTheEndBegins) February 23, 2026

Economic studies from 2025 and early 2026 consistently show that foreign exporters have “eaten” very little of the tariff costs:

90% to 96% Burden on Americans: Research from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and the Kiel Institute found that as of late 2025, American consumers and firms paid approximately 90% to 96% of the tariff costs.
Minor Exporter Absorption: Foreign exporters absorbed only about 4% to 6% of the burden by lowering their prices to remain competitive.
Cost per Household: The Tax Foundation estimated that Trump’s tariffs increased taxes for the average U.S. household by $1,000 in 2025 and are projected to cost $1,300 in 2026.

So when you watch Trump’s State of the Union speech on Tuesday, and he gets to the part about how he’s not backing down with the tariffs, just remember who is paying for those tariffs – you are. The evil foreign nations who have been ‘ripping us off’ for years with trade inequality and unfair practices will continue to do that. The only difference is, that in addition to that you now also have Trump’s tariff tax applied to all the goods you purchase, every time you eat out and the gas you put in your vehicle. Does that sound like winning to you? Did you vote for that? We’re living in a time of great deception, and the sooner you realize that the better off you’ll be.

The Coming World Government Will Raise The Jews And Israel Above All The Other Nations On Earth With Jesus Christ Ruling On The Throne Of David In Jerusalem

Published

February 22, 2026

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

The Bible declares the day is coming when King Jesus will restore the Jews as His people and Israel as His holy land

The other day I watched something truly incredible, I saw Tucker Carlson in an interview with US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee, and they were discussing who has the right to the land of Israel. In near disbelief, I watched as Tucker suggested compelling Jews in the Middle East to submit to a ‘Mischling Test’ created by the Nazis in WWII to determine bloodlines, and only the Jews who ‘passed the test’ would be allowed to live in the land of Israel. It was a total Twilight Zone moment, and the funny thing is, nearly no one is prepared for how the Bible says it will actually go.

“He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David: And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.” Luke 1:32,33 (KJB)

So let me help you today by showing you what your King James Bible decrees to be the absolute truth of what will most assuredly happen when Jesus Christ returns with His Body on white horses at the Second Advent to restore the Jews and the nation of Israel. This is information virtually unknown on social media and not preached in most churches including Baptist churches.

1). Israel becomes the center of the world

“For thou art an holy people unto the LORD thy God, and the LORD hath chosen thee to be a peculiar people unto himself, above all the nations that are upon the earth.” Deuteronomy 14:2 (KJB)

When King Jesus sets up His government, it will be smack-dab in the literal, physical and visible modern-day Israel that is held in such disdain and low account here in our day. The hallowed halls of the stately thrones of Europe along with the power and might of the great America are tossed to the side like so much garbage on a trash heap in favor of the world’s most-deadly piece of dirt, Israel, as the place where Jesus sets up shop. No, this is not happening spiritually, metaphorically or in ‘types and pictures’, this happens in 3D Earth time as the world watches. The land that is now so despised, by Jew and Gentile alike, becomes literal holy ground. Israel will stand above, not among, all the nations of the Earth, and the inhabitants of Earth will bow down before it.

2). The Jews will be on top

“Thus saith the LORD of hosts; In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold out of all languages of the nations, even shall take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying, We will go with you: for we have heard that God is with you.” Zechariah 8:23 (KJB)

You want to talk about ‘Zionist conspiracies’? This is a good one! Imagine King Jesus returns as the Bible says He will, and when His government is set up, if you want to know what’s going on, you got to go find a Jew to teach you a few things about the new system. Gentile rule and dominion? Dead as a doornail and never to be seen again. Times of the Gentiles are now finished, and the lowly, maligned and hated Jew is now on top. Democracies and Republics are yesterday’s news, welcome to the real Theocracy.

3). The land of Israel will be massive

“In the same day the LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying, Unto thy seed have I given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates: The Kenites, and the Kenizzites, and the Kadmonites, And the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Rephaims, And the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Girgashites, and the Jebusites.” Genesis 15:18-21 (KJB)

Israel in 2026 exists as a sliver of land roughly the size of the state of New Jersey, but in the new government, it will be quite a bit larger. This new Israel will include what is now the upper-right portion of Egypt, all of modern-day Israel, all of Lebanon, all of of Syria, a piece of Turkey, half of Iraq, the northern half of Jordan, and a little slice of Saudi Arabia. What will happen to the Palestinians that everyone is so concerned about? The LORD kicks them out of the land that never has, and never will, belong to them. Zechariah 14:21 says “…and in that day there shall be no more the Canaanite in the house of the LORD of hosts.” One state solution, check.

“For from the top of the rocks I see him, and from the hills I behold him: lo, the people shall dwell alone, and shall not be reckoned among the nations.” Numbers 23:9 (KJB)

You know why you don’t understand the Middle East? Because you’re not looking at it how the Bible looks at it. Because if you did, you would clearly see that in the last days, the Jews will be apostate and not in a right relationship with God, just as they are right now. But their restoration is coming. You would see how Israel was called to be separate from all the nations, not a part of the United Nations, the Trump Board of Peace, or any of that other ungodly junk, and God won’t let them stay there. When you study the Bible, it gives you the long game, and leads you to the proper conclusions. But when you get your information from the headlines, you’re playing the short game on something that’s already been decided, and you wind up on the side of the antisemites like Tucker Carlson, Chuck Baldwin and all the others. God is preparing to soon place the Jews and Israel into the time of Jacob’s trouble, and not to worry, they will be judged to a degree you cannot even begin to imagine. But when it’s done, and the remnant is brought through the refining fire, Israel will reign supreme over the whole world and the Jews will be exactly where God always intended for them to be. So be smart – study your Bible, play the long game, and get on the winning side.

Trump Finds Out That A 15% Tariff On The Whole World, Plans To Reveal ‘The Truth’ About Aliens And All-Out War With Iran Still Doesn’t Quash The Epstein Files

Donald Trump is watching his presidency implode as he threatens war with Iran, the ‘truth’ about space aliens and a 15% tax on the entire world to distract from the Epstein Files

What we are watching now with sitting president Donald Trump is truly historic, something the American people have not witnessed under any other president. A 15% tariff on the whole world. Promises to unveil the truth about aliens. Escalating rhetoric toward a soon all-out war with Iran. And yet none of it is enough to silence the growing storm surrounding the Epstein files. The more power that is flexed, the less control appears to exist.

“Put not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help.” Psalm 146:3 (KJB)

The American Right once crowned Donald Trump as the bulwark against cultural decay, global corruption, and deep-state tyranny. He was framed as the man who would save a nation drifting from God. But now, the façade has cracked, and what we see is not triumph—but a prophetic unraveling of the world’s most-powerful nation in the last days.

One of the most glaring examples of this unraveling is Trump’s Board of Peace — a self-styled global governance body that was supposed to be his legacy-defining achievement on the world stage. Instead, it is revealing strategic confusion, lack of coherent accomplishment, and diplomatic rejection. Trump’s Board of Peace was formally established with much fanfare as an international peace and reconstruction mechanism for war-torn Gaza and beyond. It has a charter and ambitious goals to restore stability, lawful governance, and peace in conflict zones. But the reality on the ground tells a far different story.

— Now The End Begins (@NowTheEndBegins) February 20, 2026

On paper, Trump and his allies claimed billions in pledges and troop commitments to rebuild Gaza. In reality, despite announcements of $5-10 billion in pledges to rebuild, no reconstruction has yet begun. Gaza remains devastated, crushed under rubble and suffering without meaningful relief or transformation. Even the Vatican refused to join the Board, citing concern that it undermines the role of the United Nations — leaving Trump’s vision isolated on the world stage.

We have global tariffs slapped on the world economy — a geopolitical sledgehammer masquerading as economic policy. We have proclamations about revealing “alien truths” — a grand narrative diversion. We have escalating rhetoric toward confrontation with Iran — keeping the world on edge. And yet even these theatrics cannot bury the Epstein files, cannot stabilize Gaza, and cannot salvage Trump’s political momentum.

Is the presidency collapsing? Politically speaking, yes — Trump’s political capital and credibility are eroding under the weight of lies, contradictions and unmet promises. But what is truly collapsing is the myth that the next election, the next president, or the next political savior will save America. That belief has been shattered on the rocks of reality. America is lost, and there is none to save her. Donald Trump has become the Swamp and the Deep State embodied in a single person.

In the three weeks since the last release of the Epstein Files, a staggering amount of damage has been done. Hyatt Hotels heir Thomas Pritzker on Monday resigned his post as the executive chairman of the hotel company. Kathy Ruemmler announced last week that she was stepping down as Chief Legal Officer and General Counsel at the investment bank Goldman Sachs, effective June 30. DP World Limited, one of the largest logistics companies in the world, announced last week that its chairman and CEO, Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem, had resigned, effective immediately. Peter Mandelson, a member of the House of Lords in the United Kingdom, stepped down from the Labour Party earlier this month, after his name appeared in the newly released documents multiple times. And former prince of England Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor was arrested on his 66th birthday. Haverford College students and alumni are calling on the school to remove Trump’s Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick’s name from its library after revelations about Lutnick’s ties to the late pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. All this is just the tip of the iceberg, something that the Trump Department of Justice seems to have absolutely zero interest in investigating. That by itself tells you everything you need to know.

The longer it goes on, the closer it all gets to Trump, and at some point he will realize that, short of starting WWIII, he is powerless to do anything about it. Everything about his presidency is fake, all of it illusion, and the house of cards he has built is about to meet the storm that can’t be stopped. Q drop that.
