I can think of several. The various plagues that swept through the Roman Empire. Later plagues in the Medieval Period.

I would also point out that you do not understand the definition of "quarantine."

It's not like a SWAT sniper is positioned on the roof across the way to shoot you if you step outside your front door.

Nostradamus was many things, including a doctor. He worked feverishly (no pun intended) on plague victims 12-16 hours a day for months.

He never got the plague, but his wife and son in quarantine at home did, because he brought it home to them.

They died, but he didn't.

I guess Nostradamus was "low low low risk" (but his wife and son were not).

Rapid transmission rate = Bad

Low/slow transmission rate = Not Bad

I would have thought you'd been smart enough to figure that out.

So, you admit you can't grasp the concept.

Nostradamus did not get Plague, but he did transmit it to his wife and child who died.

Get it?

Perhaps you think of yourself as one of God's Chosen Few who is "low low low risk" and will not experience symptoms, but you will be transmitting it to other people and harming them.

Sorry, the 2nd Amendment of the US Constitution does not grant you the right to bear COVID-19 as a fire-arm and spread it around.

Depopulation
I think in GA that's exactly whats going on

"scenes played out across the state Friday, the first day Republican Gov. Brian Kemp allowed gyms, barber shops, hair salons, tattoo parlors and bowling alleys to reopen their doors, just a few weeks after he issued a stay-at-home order to slow the spread of the coronavirus."

Now Fauci isn't a psychic, but he did conspire with globalists, like Bill Gates, to purposefully unleash a lab created virus on the general population, thus participating in mass murder.

Both him and Gates belong in prison at the very least.
So now we want to lock up doctors along with climatologists, college professors, unionized workers, Muslims, immigrants, anyone making less than $250K a year, pregnant teenagers, etc.
How about paranoid conspiracy theorists?

All your assumptions are wrong. Since you have an apparent allergy to facts there is no way to address anything you've posted.

Do you really not know when you are sick?

How do you determine whether to go to work in the morning?

Do you know what a figure of speech is? It's used by forecasters all the time. For example, I live in Florida. Hurricane season is a big deal here, and I've heard several times that there will be, "without a doubt," xx number of major hurricanes in 20** (whatever year the forecast is made). It's a forecast that is shrugged off by those of us who have lived through hurricane season enough times to not go out and empty the grocery store of bread, milk, and eggs. Some people though, usually the ones who are recent transplants, take these "without a doubt" forecasts seriously.

The simple fact of the matter is that plagues and pandemics happen, and they even happen on a somewhat predictable timetable. We were past due for a major virus outbreak to hit the world, and globalism set up a scenario where a virus in China could rapidly spread to other countries. If anyone is to blame for the likely coming collapse of our economy it is the globalists who pushed manufacturing to other countries.

"Some very unethical things have been done. This was created in China by the American government. This did not start on it's own.
The quarantine is also not needed to the degree they are making us do it. From day one of our current political system have they always talked bad about China, let's hope this is not 2003 all over again, but with China instead.

I also feel this "quarantine" has been manifested and took careful planning to do. This quarantine punishes everybody, and it is done so on purpose. So as you said PLANdemic indeed!

This will also make the current administration look good once all is said and done. It will make them look like a hero after. Again. this is a False Flag Operation, and intentionally causing inconvenience on purpose.

There are many red flags here that do not make sense, and this goes beyond simplistic political parties."

Asymptomatic means exactly that. No significant symptoms, they're just giving it to other people.

Two reasons

1- The vaccine isn't ready.
2- China's initial reaction was that this took them by surprise.

I also think that now that this has gotten out, and people are building up internal resistance to this (herd immunity), I don't think it will have the same effect in the future. So if they had plans with this specific virus, it's toast IMO.
The damage is already done for the most part.

Of course healthy people can be quarantined. That is the whole point, to keep healthy people who have been exposed to a communicable disease from circulating in the population long enough to see whether they are infected or not.

https://health.clevelandclinic.org/c...in-a-pandemic/

"Quarantines are for people or groups who don’t have symptoms but were exposed to the sickness. A quarantine keeps them away from others so they don’t unknowingly infect anyone. "

Gates has never advocated "depopulation". He has discussed ways to slow population growth, which is an entirely different concept.

It is challenging for a country to get worked up about a threat that does not hit home.

We all watched Wuhan, then Ital and failed to imagine this could happen in the US.
The 2009 H1N1 flu was indeed a pandemic. That just means it circulated globally. SARS never spread worldwide, fortunately.
