There´s a race right now between the three mayor powers, which we all know who they are. But the race is not for who comes out with a cure first, it´s for who will power the world from now on. With that out of the way, the war that is going on, which is NOT the war some are used to, has to do with disinformation, fake news, propaganda and basically social engineering for these three powers to achieve or discredit goals or needs. Be it via media, web, dark web, or what ever medium they can. That´s the real war, the virus is just the start gunshot to start the race for the ultimate goal! Who will get there first out of the three is yet to be known, but we the people will be the losers, not those who are on top.
It´s up to us what we belive in, and that will have to do with how all this will end, and/or what changes there will be in the future world! It dosen´t have to do with what side you´re on, so get over it. They only have one side...
And no, we don´t know if it came from a bat yet, but we do know it´s not man-made as that would leave a genetic trace.
I´ll leave it here.

Who will be on top when all is said and done?
I posted earlier that "I made the horse laugh and I made the horse cry". (A really funny joke, google it).
After all is said and done here is where we will be:
Nuclear-Weapon States:
The nuclear-weapon states (NWS) are the five states—China, France, Russia, United Kingdom, and the United States—officially recognized as possessing nuclear weapons by the NPT. The treaty legitimizes these states’ nuclear arsenals, but establishes they are not supposed to build and maintain such weapons in perpetuity. In 2000, the NWS committed themselves to an “unequivocal undertaking…to accomplish the total elimination of their nuclear arsenals.” Because of the secretive nature with which most governments treat information about their nuclear arsenals, most of the figures below are best estimates of each nuclear-weapon state’s nuclear holdings, including both strategic warheads and lower-yield devices referred to as tactical weapons.
China:
About 290 total warheads.
France:
About 300 total warheads.
Russia:
March 2019 New START declaration: 1,461 strategic warheads deployed on 524 intercontinental ballistic missiles, submarine-launched ballistic missiles, and strategic bombers.
The Federation of American Scientists (FAS) estimates approximately 4,490 stockpiled warheads and 2,000 retired warheads for a total of roughly 6,490 warheads, as of early 2019.
United Kingdom:
About 120 strategic warheads, of which no more than 40 are deployed at sea on a nuclear ballistic missile submarine at any given time. The United Kingdom possesses a total of four ballistic missile submarines. Total stockpile is estimated up to 200 warheads.
United States:
March 2019 New START declaration: 1,365 strategic nuclear warheads deployed on 656 intercontinental ballistic missiles, submarine-launched ballistic missiles, and strategic bombers.
FAS estimates approximately 3,800 stockpiled warheads and 2,385 retired warheads for a total of 6,185 warheads as of early 2019.

I come out of the "duck and cover" generation. Unless this becomes the "Spanish Flu" of 1919 I see the other real dangers after this is all over.
