Update: May 6, 2020 Wednesday Tokyo time: 11:30 am
I mention earlier on one of my post that I'd try to make my updates a bit more international and perhaps more on "what's happening in everyone's front yard" type of post. The reason is because: Chinese updates are rare and Japanese updates are beginning not to be of much of interest these days to what is happening to the outside world, and the events in Japan (somewhat untruthful as far as reporting cases and deaths of the virus ) still hold a lot of weight, but not much international interest in this country.
I want to include some previous MIM's Street Talk first. The reason is, some of you may have missed it and has some of this taken place since my last post on April 30th.
This may take place worldwide so if this stuff does happen, we'll have to make a life's adjustment to it.
1. I don't know about schools around the world but it may seem possible that will take a new turn on education at the 5th grade level. Why, classes will be structured in 3 ways, one is the local economy (education focus locally) (nothing new here, but it won't start at the junior college level. The second way of education will be nurturing the talent of the student , again at the 5th grade level. The 3 level will be a "voluntary forced education" to assure employment in ones aptitude.
2. Life WILL NOT go back to what it once was. ( I hope you all understand that ) This will vary from country to country.
3. It will be nearly impossible to leave the country you are now in unless you are politically connected/ military connected.
4. For the States, entry to another State will have to be approved. ( Transportation hubs will have special privileges )
5. Its best if possible to leave any major city. As I mentioned before, major cities will become open door prisons and that is a fact. It won't be the type that you see with bars though. Expect loss of freedom and strict curfew this coming summer in the States.
The above is my Street Talk and it is very possible to happen in your country also. Just today, Russia closed down Moscow
My current MIM's Street Talk in the making
1. Look at #2 below. This will start at the interstate hwys in the States.
2. As stated in one of my post, these will be worn by trackers across America. It will detect who has a fever and possibly other test.
1. The US government should answer ten questions, provide explanations to the world, the Chinese newspaper concludes.
Why doesn't the U.S. government provide comprehensive protection for medical workers? Why were those reporting facts fired?
There are over 20,000 deaths from the seasonal flu in America starting last September, how many of those cases were the novel coronavirus undetected?
Why did Washington suddenly shut down its bioweapons lab in Fort Detrick, Maryland last July?
Some senators offloaded shares while playing down the threats of the disease. Why aren't they being held accountable?
Why did the U.S. downplay the pandemic when it knew the disease would develop into one?
When did the earliest COVID-19 infection happen in the U.S.? Why doesn't Washington get experts to trace it?
What secret research is being carried out at the biolabs established by the U.S. in former Soviet states?
Why was Brett Crozier relieved of his command after saving the lives of thousands of soldiers on board?
Will the U.S. disclose its pandemic control timeline to the world?
What effective measures have the U.S. adopted in the last two months other than the restrictions on travel with China?
2. Next week, due to complications of the epidemiological situation, Moscow is introducing a system of passes for moving around the city, Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin said in a televised address to Muscovites.
3. Be prepared to wear this: its a wrist device that will tell you if and when you are infected.
4. A number of Japanese groups offering humanitarian assistance abroad have recently been forced to evacuate staff due to the spread of the novel coronavirus, casting a shadow over their support for refugees and poverty-stricken regions.
5.
Mahan Airlines has been sanctioned by the US because it was secretly transporting weapons and prominent figures for the Revolutionary Guard to Irans operations in Syria, Lebanon and Iraq - countries that also have strong ties with the Iranian Revolutionary Guard.
By using flight data and talking to sources in Lebanon and Iraq, BBC Arabic was able to confirm that the first cases of Covid-19 in these two countries were for travellers on Mahan flights.
6. I think Mexico is going to catch up with the world: On May 5 , health authorities confirmed over 26000 Covid-19 cases and 2500 deaths in Mexico.
