The Five Eyes of Intelligence Services and Cov19

serf
Gosh smoke and mirrors from The Governments is rampant as The virus is?  Is it really Fake news? Not according to The Canadian government.The spooks are running the narrative and it's becoming troublesome for them. What is the truth? Is this being compartmentalized for nation security reasons? They are not telling.

A small, specialized unit within the Canadian military's intelligence branch began producing detailed warnings and analysis about the emergence of the deadly novel coronavirus in Wuhan, China in early January, CBC News has learned.

The medical intelligence (MEDINT) cell within Canadian Forces Intelligence Command (CFINTCOM) is tucked away on the edges of the country's security and defence establishment.

It has a mandate to track global health trends and contagion outbreaks to predict how they'll affect military operations, but its assessments are heavily influenced by reports from the Five Eyes Intelligence partners, including the U.S. military's National Center for Medical Intelligence (NCMI).


Distant early warnings "We can confirm that CFINTCOM started to report on COVID-19 starting January 2020," Lt. Hrayr Karageozia, a spokesperson for the military intelligence branch, said in an email. The military unit, which is made up of specialists in public health, microbiology, biochemistry, emergency management and clinical medicine, uses open-source data — including World Health Organization statistics and analyses — along with classified intelligence from allies. Its use of classified information could be significant in light of reports coming out of Washington this week that the U.S. military's medical intelligence agency was following and reporting on the novel coronavirus as early as last November. ABC News reported on Wednesday that detailed NCMI briefings, which raised the alarm about the COVID-19 outbreak, were circulated multiple times among decision-makers and policy experts in the Trump administration throughout December. They eventually ended up in President Donald Trump's daily intelligence briefing package in early January. Those assessments said the virus posed a serious threat to American forces in Asia and, significantly, claimed China's leadership knew the outbreak was out of control and that crucial information was being withheld from foreign governments and public health agencies. Karageozia said the MEDINT unit works "directly with its peer organizations," but would not say whether those stark analyses made their way into the Canadian military's medical intelligence brief. "We cannot comment on the content of intelligence reports that we receive or share," Karageozia said.

    It leads one to wonder why Canada was no better prepared than the rest of the world. While their numbers of cases and deaths are but a small fraction of the U.S. numbers so is their population. The news today concerning Ontario was no better than the U.S. regarding quarantines and getting their economy back on line. A couple of weeks ago they were complaining about Trump holding up an order for ppe that they desperately needed. If no country saw this coming there must have been not a lot to see at the time and no one took it seriously. Hindsight is a curse as dwelling on it takes resources from the problem at hand. It is interesting to see a country as liberal as Canada pretty much seal their borders. Remember we had/have politicians running for president who are still against sealing our borders, even with the pandemic. Bob

    The South Koreans did the best job on containment. The English-speaking world along with The Germans with Free trade came out lacking because they have more influx of Chinese looking for more manufacturing products to sell to the gullible West. The Japanese are really failing at it however,(containment that is.) Taking temps at Airports is useless. Trump should have acted sooner on forced isolation,in my opinion.

              That experience showed that laboratory testing is essential to control an emerging infectious disease,” Kim says. In addition, Oh says, “The MERS experience certainly helped us to improve hospital infection prevention and control.” So far, there are no reports of infections of COVID-19 among South Korean health care workers, he says. Legislation enacted since then gave the government au
