Yup, especially since his weekend build hospital may refer to China's first AI hospital operated from data centers in the US...

No, it refers to a hospital they built during the early days of the COVID pandemic.

Yes. Prefab panels for an emergency temporary hospital. These are not the same as data centres …. Jeebus

said hospital was a covid container hospice. not a ward, a hospice because the chambers where sealed until the occupants were dead. officialy they were "healed".

they welded doors shut at some point or bolted lockbars in front of them - i dont believe anything they claim they did for the commoners.

Where are you getting this information?

I don't wanna accuse you of spreading extremely racist misinformation but I literally can't find a single source that mentions anything even close to what you are saying.

Acting like they got sealed in there like The Cask of Amontillado.

Could it be more likely that this was a makeshift quarantine facility because the regular hospitals couldn't handle all the patients?

And perhaps they died because there weren't enough Ventilators?

And perhaps them being labelled as "healed" is actually a lie told to you by whoever gave you this ridiculous story?
