China Has Imposed Air Tight COVID Measures to Stop Omicron Spread Before Winter Olympics.

Since December 27, China’s communist regime has increased travel restrictions in the northwest city of Xi’an, as it tries to limit the country’s highest known rise in COVID-19 infections in almost two years.

On December 27, Xi’an, the capital of Shaanxi Province, reported 150 more cases, bringing the total number of those infected to 635 since December 9.

Authorities have severely restricted traffic into and out of the city, with footage from state broadcaster CCTV showing trucks queueing at road checks as hazmat officials examined health data on drivers’ phones on Sunday.

“For Xi’an, intensified control and screening measures are urgent to block the virus as soon as possible,” said Zhang Boli, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering.

“I estimate the transmission will be cut off in mid-January and the outbreak can be completely put under control in late January. It is very possible,” he said in a recent media interview.

Given the Chinese regime’s history of underreporting virus statistics, the official figure is unlikely to be representative of the genuine amount. However, this is the highest daily count documented when COVID-19 initially appeared in Wuhan.

The Delta variant was blamed by Chinese health officials for an increase in illnesses in five regions, including Beijing. In six weeks, the capital city, roughly 625 miles from Xi’an, will host the Winter Olympics, which the dictatorship has promised will be a “safe” event.

The authorities also announced that the norm of allowing just one individual per home to buy groceries every two days would be suspended. Residents were required to stay at home until December 27, save when getting tested for COVID.
Residents were only permitted to buy basics at businesses within their complex, according to a resident who provided her surname as Zhou to The Epoch Times on Dec. 26. She said that she had been banned from leaving her home in the medium-risk Lianhu district.

At least three rounds of mass testing have taken place in the city, with 28,983 persons being placed under centralized quarantine.

Anyone who refuses to observe the guidelines during the testing, such as maintaining three feet apart when standing in lines, might be detained and fined, according to authorities.

Workers spray pathogen-killing substances onto roads and buildings in Xi’an as part of a citywide cleaning program.

Given the minimal chance of individuals contracting COVID-19 from outdoor surfaces or the air with so few people outside, Dongyan Jin, a virologist at the University of Hong Kong, believes bulk disinfection of outdoor air and surfaces is unnecessary.

“This is like firing mosquitos with a cannon,” Jin stated, while he did agree that disinfecting interior surfaces, particularly in areas frequented by ill patients, was vital.

China has long lost hope for liberation. Only an inconceivable catastrophe can shine a hint of light into the hearts and minds of these oppressed individuals. When infection spreads across the United States and Europe to a degree that justifies serious “concern”, governments will react in the same way that China’s government is: martial law and technocratic top down surveilence. This would likely result in civil war in the United States. John 15:19 says: “If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you.” Stay inquisitive in the word of God, and the world around you.

United Airlines, based in Chicago, Illinois, has been sued by 2,000 employees after the business threatened to fire them for requesting religious exemptions to the COVID vaccine mandate. After applying for a religious or medical exception to the airline’s wide vaccine mandate, the employees were placed on unpaid leave.

According to CBN News, United Airlines CEO Scott Kirby proclaimed, “Any pilot, or any employee, who all of a sudden decides, ‘I’m really religious,’ you’re putting your job on the line.” “You had better be careful with that.” (Pause… wow.)

Kirby’s threat sparked a class-action lawsuit filed by more than 2,000 United Airlines employees who formed the Airline Employees for Health Freedom alliance (AE4HF). The workers say that the airline violated its legal rights by firing at least 200 employees and refusing to pay 2,000 others for more than a month.

Sherry Walker, co-founder of AE4HF and a United Airlines captain, stated, “We are standing for our religious freedom and medical autonomy, and we feel we are entitled to the protections under Title VII.” Walker also accused United Airlines of preventing employees from looking for work elsewhere and denying them access to their savings and 401(k) plans.

Meanwhile, the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals is hearing the AE4HF’s class-action lawsuit. If the workers win on the merits and the judge issues a preliminary injunction, United Airlines will be required to reinstate their employment or provide them with paid leave.

The Senate Oversight Committee was also interested in United Airlines’ response to employees who sought religious exemptions from the COVID immunization. Major airlines, notably United Airlines, have been questioned by lawmakers about how they spent more than $70 million in Cares Act money intended to assist them in recovering from the COVID outbreak.

Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals Judge James Ho wrote in an opinion that the district court concluded  “[United Airlines’] mandate…reflects an apathy, if not disdain, for many of its employees’ concerns and a paucity of tolerance for individuals expressing diversity of view,” Judge James Ho said in a ruling for the district court. The airline showed a “calloused approach” and “apparent scorn for” persons of faith, according to the judgement.

According to Breitbart News, Sen. Ted Cruz was outraged by United Airlines’ treatment of religious employees, and he lambasted Kirby for his “very unsettling” handling of unvaccinated personnel. The Republican leader of Texas grilled Kirby on the company’s vaccine obligation during a hearing for the U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation concerning the airline industry’s governance.

Sen. Cruz pressed Kirby on why, in the face of a pilot shortage, United Airlines opted to put 80 pilots on unpaid leave who had requested religious or medical exemptions. Sen. Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee, a Republican, addressed Kirby about his “apparently self-created dilemma,” according to the story. The case “Sambrano v. United Airlines” is now pending in the Fifth Circuit of the United States.

You must always remember that you are a child of God in moments like these. You must not allow anything of this world to receive your support while at the same time rob men and women of faith. We don’t run away from confrontation just because we’re terrified of it. Why should we be afraid when we have God on our side? Matthew 10:34 says: “Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword.

Furthermore, deciding not to support a company like United Airlines is a question of where your priorities lie as a child of God, and it is something we should pray about and seek God’s advice on. Whether you choose to protest in public or speak out in your own neighborhood, remember that as Christians, we are representing Christ to the world, and what we do and say, as well as how we say it, can affect how others perceive Jesus through us. Stay inquisitive in the word of God, and the world around you.
