The infection rate is very high and so is the mortality rate -- 10 times more deadly than the seasonal flu 1, and it is spreading like wildfire. In Italy for example, they went from 3 cases to 3,000 cases in 2 weeks, and during a two week period it went from 250 cases to 10,000 cases, which is why that entire country is in total lock down mode right now. Likewise, Spain, France, Poland, Norway, Belgium, Argentina, Russia, and Israel are also under nationwide lock down as well. The virus is ravaging the Middle East with Iran warning of potentially millions of deaths from it. President Trump has declared a national emergency in the US, which gives him over 120 special powers to deal with the crisis. The governor of the state of Washington publicly stated that his expert advisers are telling him that if he doesn't take measures to slow the spread of this pandemic, he could potentially have 64,000 cases in his state alone by May. In the state of New York, they are taking drastic measures as well, including a 1-mile radius detainment zone around New Rochelle in Westchester County. All flights to the US from the UK and Europe have been stopped for now, and many other drastic things that are being done to stop the spread of this disease.
There were a couple of cruise ships where some of the passengers had tested positive for the virus, and because of that the entire ship was quarantined, requiring everyone on board to remain in their cabins for 14 days. One of those cruise liners was off the coast of Japan and another one was off the coast of California recently. Another example was recently in Bethlehem, Israel, in which there were tourists staying at a hotel where seven people were suspected of having the virus. All those tourists were required to remain quarantined in the hotel for 14 days with the ones who were suspected to be positive.
I am not promoting hysteria, but have done a great deal of research on this virus. Due to its 14-day incubation period, it is also very stealthy in that a person can initially be contagious without symptoms for up to two weeks, making them an ideal spreader to infect unsuspecting people around them. This probably helps to contribute to its very high infection rate, which could be as high as 83%, because people don't know to avoid these carriers who show no symptoms of the disease.
Reason
First of all, as I wrote in my previous article, I believe the The Seven Seals Are Being Opened in Real Time, and the coronavirus is one of the plagues that has been released as part of the fourth seal. It has already been foretold in Scripture, and I believe it will result in many more deaths.
As I look at the seven seals of revelation, especially the first several seals (eg., the first five), they seem to me to all be related to the evil acts of man. In other words, they all seem to be man-made by evil people. All this is allowed by God to help people wake up and realize that Jesus Christ is coming back soon. We are in the last days. The Lord is calling on everyone on earth, including those who know Him and those who don't know Him, to stop doing the things of the world and repent and pray, because Jesus is coming back very, very soon.
For more on this, please see The Seven Seals Are Being Opened in Real Time, The End Time Plagues, and Synching Up the Seven Seals with the Gospels.
Origin
As for the origin and how the virus got started, I believe there is ample evidence that it was man-made (attenuated in a lab).
China's Wuhan Institute of Virology has a BSL-4 lab, which reportedly had been working on genetically modifying the SARS virus to give it a gain-of-function. According to the US National Library of Medicine, "Gain-of-function (GOF) research involves experimentation that aims or is expected to (and/or, perhaps, actually does) increase the transmissibility and/or virulence of pathogens."
According to TruNews:
"...a team of researchers from Norway and the UK have published their findings that COVID-19 was absolutely manmade. Their two main conclusions:
the mutations that would normally be seen in the course of animal to human transmission have no occurred in the coronavirus, indicated that it was fully “pre-adapted” for human infection and transmission; and
the coronavirus has insertions in its protein sequence that have never been detected in nature and contribute to its ability to cause infection and disease."
It is suspected that the SARS-CoV-2 virus that causes COVID-19 (novel coronavirus) was leaked either intentionally or accidentally from the BSL-4 lab in Wuhan. According to Newsbreak, "The taxpayer-funded NIH (National Institutes of Health, where Dr. [Anthony] Fauci is a top official) is now known to have funded bat coronavirus research (SARS-CoV) at the very same BSL-4 Wuhan laboratory that is widely believed to have manipulated and released the Wuhan coronavirus that’s now devastating the planet." Under Obama the NIH gave $3.7 million to the Wuhan lab that is located only 20 miles from the food market where the outbreak allegedly started (Also see here).
It has been reported that they had sloppy lab practices and scientists were taking lab animals (like dogs) home as pets, selling some in the market, which may have been used as food, and not properly burying carcasses of the animals that died. As a result, the world is now experiencing the health and economic consequences caused by this virus. The world as we once knew it has been forever changed, including our freedoms, as this will have a seminal effect like 911 did.
I recommend watching the video in the first link below, and if you still don't believe it is a bio-weapon, then check out the other two articles as well:
Bombshell transcript: Dr. Francis Boyle’s interview on coronavirus as an “offensive biological warfare weapon”
Why is the World Health Organization engaged in bioweapons research?
Nature Science Journal Warned about “Pathogens Escaping” Wuhan Level-4 Biosafety Lab (BSL-4) Before Coronavirus Outbreak
A thirty-three year old Chinese doctor Li Wenliang was silenced when he first warned about the spread of the novel coronavirus. The Chinese police stopped him after he attempted to sound the alarm in December 2019 over the outbreak at Wuhan Central Hospital, where he worked. Obviously the Chinese government didn't want that news to get out. Dr. Li later announced that he himself had become ill with the coronavirus, from which he died on February 7, 2020. His employer announced his death on Weibo, the Chinese social media site. He has now become a national hero for being a courageous whistle-blower in that repressive communist country, where there is no freedom of speech.
Moreover, US intelligence now reveals that communist China endangered the rest of the world by lying about the severity of the COVID-19 outbreak there 2. Revelations have surfaced about the regime’s malfeasance in covering up COVID-19, which means they are under-reporting the number of cases and deaths. This led medical authorities in other countries like the US to think that the outbreak was not going to be as serious as expected, until they saw the true numbers coming out of Italy and Spain. Meanwhile the Chinese Communist Party has sought to to turn the story around, making itself seem like the true hero and even a victim of the US military.
Divine Revelations
The Scriptures say: "'In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams." (Act 2:17). So in these last days, the Lord is giving people dreams and visions. I believe the Lord has even given people divine revelations to confirm what we already know about COVID-19, which is that this virus is being used by evil people seeking to depopulate the world. Let me give you some examples.
Coronavirus dream. Message to every nation.
In this first video, a brother in Christ tells of the dream he had about the coronavirus in January. He was not going to share it initially, because I suppose he didn't think anything major would become of the coronavirus outbreak in China.
In the dream, he was trading with two Chinese men, exchanging currencies, and they seemed displeased with something about the trading deal. He then saw that they had five pipes leading from the coronavirus to a factory, apparently to pump the virus into the factory, in order to sicken and kill the workers there. The workers noticed the pipes and didn't understand how they got there. Then he saw a sixth pipe leading into an office building. This one was under the floor and began to cause the floor to boil, which they noticed. They showed a white guy in the office the boiling on the floor, and he downplayed it, saying it was probably just water, which it obviously was not. Then suddenly it boiled over into an explosion that filled the entire room. Later the man who had the dream was made to know that the two men who instigated this ended up dying from the virus, too.
My interpretation:
His interaction with the two Chinese men seems to represent the US trade war with China. The pipes from the coronavirus to the factory and the office building could possibly confirm it was an intentional leak. The factory represents the Chinese manufacturing sector and the office building represents the Chinese corporate sector. The white guy represents the way Americans have downplayed the virus and continue to do so even as it has become a global pandemic. He may possibly represent an American or Americans who were in China on business when people in those offices were getting sick and it exploded all over the place. That explosion all over the place may also represent the way it spread to the whole world from there.
A Dream About Corona Virus
In this second video, a sister in Christ also had a dream about the coronavirus. In the dream, she was in China walking through some kitchens of restaurants. She saw someone go into one of the kitchens with a white powder and place it on a shelf. She was made to understand that the white powder substance was the coronavirus. One of the cooks then added a small pinch of the powder to someone's food, which was then served to them, after which the guest immediately fell over dead. Men then came into the restaurant, put the man into a body bag, took him out the restaurant through the kitchen and out the back door. They put the body into a van, drove up a hill and then stopped and threw the body out onto the ground, which rolled down a hill and off a cliff. This whole process was repeated with more guests in the restaurant. There were also men seated secretly among the guests who were there to monitor this diabolical scheme and ensure it was being carried out. She tried to stop the people who were doing this, but they could not hear her and continued to kill more and more people. She knew that many dead bodies were piling up at the bottom of the cliff where they had been thrown. She also saw other guests in the restaurant watching news on a television screen about many people dying, many of them falling dead in the streets.
My interpretation:
Her dream seems to indicate once again that this virus is a biological weapon of warfare designed to kill people, and that it has been made by evil people who have intentionally infected the civilian population with it. The instant death they experienced may indicate the high fatality rate caused by the coronavirus.
Remedy
In this last video (now removed by Youtube), the Lord appeared to a sister in Christ in her dream and gave her the cure for coronavirus. He placed before her fresh ginger, fresh okra, and fresh garlic, and told her this is what people need to take to be healed from the virus. He warned her that people should not look to the government for help from the virus, because the government would only kill them.
My interpretation:
I believe the Lord did show this woman a homeopathic remedy for the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). I believe these foods will in fact boost immunity and enable people to avoid getting the virus in the first place, as well as be healed from it if they do get sick with the virus. The intestines or "gut" are key to a healthy immune system, and as the sister stated, her research after the dream showed that okra helps to replenish good bacteria in the gut to boost immunity. It is also well known that garlic has anti-viral properties.
The Lord's warning that the government will only seek to kill the people is a confirmation that this is a bio weapon and that the government is behind it. It also confirms that government solutions will only kill more people. Of course, this remedy has not been evaluated or approved by the evil FDA, but that doesn't mean it won't help you get healed from the coronavirus. This is not medical advice, but taking these foods certainly won't hurt you.
I might also add that getting about 15 minutes per day of sunshine during the summer months (March to October in the USA) helps your body generate vitamin D (known as the sunshine vitamin), which is then stored in your body for use throughout the year. This stored vitamin D is used by your body during the months when you cannot generate vitamin D naturally, due to the lack of direct sunlight. Medical studies have shown that vitamin D3 (not D2) can help to defend against respiratory infection. Since the coronavirus causes pneumonia, it is important to have proper levels of vitamin D3 in your system. One study in a hospital many years ago showed that during an outbreak of the flu, the patients in one particular ward, who had received vitamin D supplements, did not suffer from the respiratory illness that plagued the other wards in that hospital. Of course, you can take vitamin D3 supplements in various forms to boost the levels in your system generated by sunlight. For example, you can take Cod liver oil with vitamin D; but do your research, since there are various kinds of vitamin D, but D3 is the best. You also don't want to have too much of it in your system, as that would be unhealthy. On the other hand, you want to get sufficient doses of it in order for it to be effective, and you need to have sufficient levels of other substances (eg., vitamins A and K, plus magnesium), to enable your body to absorb the D3.
I also recommend eating a healthy diet with lots of vegetables and fruits, which are good sources of vitamins and fiber. And avoid foods that can damage your body and/or cause poor health conditions, such as the ones I call the white poisons, namely refined sugar, dairy, refined table salt, and processed white flour. For more on this see White Poisons and Some Foods Damage, Others Heal.
I believe the most important remedy to keep from getting this disease is to repent of all your sins, give your life to Jesus Christ, and ask for His covering of protection over you, according to Psalm 91. Ask for His precious blood to cover you and protect you. His sinless blood that was shed on the cross for you will cover and protect you from this disease. Pray and seek the Lord, as prayer is key to your spiritual and physical well being. And go about your day praising the Lord, as praise is a powerful weapon of spiritual warfare.
Overreactions
There is certainly a lot of hype and hysteria surrounding the novel coronavirus, which is not good and not of God. I am not advocating fear, panic, or hysteria. And there certainly has been a big impact to the economy from it so far, namely the worldwide stock market crash (eg., Black Monday on March 9, 2020, etc.) and widespread fears of another recession. COVID-19 is also wreaking havoc on retail supply chains globally, resulting in various product shortages. The mass panic buying that is happening is also helping to contribute to those shortages. Some businesses are even temporarily laying off employees or sending staff home on administrative leave.
Additionally, the draconian measures being taken by the government to combat the pandemic will lead to a loss of freedoms in the long-term. They are already implementing screenings, monitoring of people, mandatory quarantines, drive-through testing, border closures, school closures, nursing home visitation bans, postponed elections, travel restrictions, and strict guidelines on gatherings of more than ten people, including private family ones in homes and those in public places such as restaurants and churches. I believe that eventually they will implement forced vaccinations, too. People will become desperate for a solution to this global crisis and look to the government to save them, which will set the stage for the emergence of the antichrist and his mark of the beast system.
Medically speaking, in terms of outcomes, on one end of the spectrum it can be as mild as the common cold for most people, and they feel better in two weeks, but on the other end of the spectrum is acute respiratory failure and death. Since the virus has already mutated 262 times to boost its own survival, which is a very high mutation rate, there are different versions of the disease being transmitted. This obviously poses a major challenge to the human immune system to develop ongoing immunity to an ever-changing virus, which could be the reason why it is so deadly and why doctors have observed a high rate of reinfections among those who recovered from the virus. An article from a Beijing, China-based media group called Caixin, reported that "14% of recovered Covid-19 patients in Guangdong tested positive again.”
Moreover, it has also been reported that even those who have recovered from the illness have ongoing damage to certain organs. According to Science Alert, those who recover fully from COVID-19 can still suffer from reduced lung function, possibly up to a 20-30% loss of function. They may gasp for air when walking quickly due to substantially weakened lung capacity, according to a Hong Kong study.
Regardless of what you believe to be the source of this virus, or whether you believe this virus poses a serious health threat, you should at least be able to agree that the reactions of society and the government (as mentioned above) to the pandemic will probably affect your daily life in some way. This perhaps poses the greatest risk to most of us, in terms of the highest probability of occurring and the most severe impact.
In this article, I do not seek to promote panic, but am simply stating what the potential is for this pandemic. The data I have analyzed indicates that things could get a lot worse in terms of potentially millions of people dying and long-term impacts to society.
If you know the Lord Jesus Christ, then you do not need to be fearful of this pandemic. If you have been fearful, then you should repent for your fear and ask the Lord to forgive you. Have faith in God, pray, and trust in Jesus to protect you.
Putting it All Together
This is an unprecedented time in our nation's history and the history of our world. It is not business as usual, but rather apocalyptic days we are living in. If you know Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, please get ready for the rapture, because Jesus Christ is coming back very, very soon. If you don't know Jesus, then now is the time to give your life to Him. I believe we are seeing the end time plagues foretold in Scripture, and that the seven seals are being opened. I believe the coronavirus is part of the fourth seal. I also believe it is a man made, bio weapon intended to cause maximum casualties. I do not believe the government has the answer for this problem. Jesus is calling upon everyone in the world, those who know Him and those who don't, to stop doing the things of the world, repent, pray and believe in Him, because He is coming back very, very soon.

1 Source, CBN News report: US Intel Reveals Communist China Endangered the World by Lying About Severity of COVID-19.
2 Death rate for seasonal flu is around 0.1% in the US, but the death rate for COVID-19 is 29.6% worldwide (excluding mainland China), according to Worldometers. That is actually 296 times (29,600%) greater than the seasonal flu death rate. Case Fatality Rate (CFR) is calculated during the epidemic using the formula: CFR = deaths / (deaths + recovered) which, with the latest data available, would be equal to: 20,781 / (20,781 + 49,354) = 29.6% CFR (worldwide excluding China). Moreover, the Case Fatality Rate (CFR) in the USA is 1,295 / (1,295 + 1,868) = 41%. That is 410 times (41,000%) more deadly that the seasonal flu. As of April 2, 2020, the CFR is 95.6% in the UK, 84.6% in Netherlands, and 73.2% in Sweden! Therefore, when I state that COVID-19 is 10 times more deadly, it is a huge understatement.

Do You Want to Know Him?
If you want to know Jesus personally, you can. It all begins when you repent and believe in Jesus. Do you know what God's Word, the Bible says?
“Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of God, and saying, ‘The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel.’” (Mar 1:14b-15). He preached that we must repent and believe.
Please see my explanation of this in my post called "Do You Want to Know Jesus?"
