*Strasbourg/Angelo Marcopolo/- As EU renews its Monitoring of Libya Arms Embargo in the Mediterranean Sea, (Mission "Sophia"=Wisdom), after LNA hit a Turkish Arms Smuggling area at Tripoli SeaPort, GNA suspended Peace Talks, droped UN Geneva meetings, claimed cease-fire violation, asked "Sanctions" against the Opposition, (etc)...

But its Cronies were unable to do more than merely Deny that a Turkish Ship was still there "When" that Strike took place ; Claim that a ship would be "not technically Turkish" if this was covered under a "Flag of Seychelles registered Company"; and/or if another ship used an "Albanian Flag", but "Sailed from Mersin, Turkey on Feb.9 & arrived Tripoli in Feb.15" ; while, at any case, they didN't even dare Deny the notorious Fact that, Earlier, it was Not 1 but ...5 Turkish Military Frigates which had escorted at Tripoli SeaPort Cargos with Heavy Weapons, including Armoured Vehicles and "Hawk" Anti-AirCraft systems, (as Denounced even by UNO's Libya Envoy Salamé), added to UnPopular and Dangerous armed Gangs of Islamist Terrorists deployed by Turkey from Syria's Idlib "by Thousands", (See: ..., etc).             

=> Such "UnScrupulous Actors" (according to UNO's  Ghassan Salamé, recently), as those UnElected guys from the so-called "Government of National Accord" ("GNA"), that some inside UNO curiously persist to "recognize", Despite the Fact that they doN't even gather Any "Accord" at all in Libya, where they doN't control, no more, not even 1/3 of the Country, while, on the Contrary, the "National Libyan Army" is Supported by Libya's only Internationaly Recognized and Elected Parliament : that of Tobruk, where it was obliged to find Refuge, since the 2015 Violent Clashes with Islamist Militia in Tripoli, Backs General Haftar, who already controls the Biggest Part of the Country, and Nowadays just met with USA, EU and Russia Top Officials.

Curiously, Turkey criticized EU's decision on Air/Sea Monitoring of Arms Embargo on Libya, but, on the Contrary, ...praised Tripoli's GNA's decision to Suspend UN Geneva Peace Talks ! 

-----------------------------------

+ Meanwhile, the GNA's decision to Suspend UN-sponsored Peace Talks at Geneva, surprizingly Coincided wth the official Presentation of the "Conditions" raised by Libyan Tribal Leaders, (Allies of NLA's General Haftar), in order to UnBlock the Oil Pipelines heading Westwards, towards Tripoli's GNA, that they had, recently, Stoped flowing, in order to Oblige it to Hear their Demands : A move which had provoked a row, with the GNA claiming that it Threatened seriously Libya's Economy, while Refusing, however, to Negotiate with the East...

Now, those Conditions were Received at Geneva by UNO's Libya Envoy Salamé, who reportedly said that the were of "quite General" nature, and would be treated in the Context of the Economic aspects of the Libyan Issue. According to "Reuters", they are related with "overcoming Economic Divisions". Previously, a National Parliament's Spokesperson, had pointed towards "a Fair Distribution of Wealth".     

But Nothing concrete was revealed Today, while Tripoli's GNA did Not Comment on the substance of that Socio-Economic Differend.

However, Libya's Tribes' Leaders, gathered at a 2 Day's long meeting in Tarhouna (near Tripoli), reportedly Warned that this Problem would "Escalate", if there is still "No Reply" to their reiterated requests.

+Meanwhile, Tripoli's Matiga Airport had earlier suspended Flights again, after clashes, and Oil Tankers were nowadays reportedly withdrawn from Tripoli's SeaPort, after the latest incident (Comp. supra).

*Strasbourg/Angelo Marcopolo/- At an Exceptional Event, Human Life had to be Born Weeks Earlier than normaly expected, reportedly in order to Help an on-going, Hard General Struggle against a Deadly Virus, at the House of the Rising Sun, in China,"Eurofora" learned.

Indeed, a Baby due to be Naturaly Born around the Middle of February 2020, was, Instead, Born with Cesarian Surgery, much Earlier : on the 6th of February, (i.e. 1 or 2 Weeks Before its Natural Outcome), with Risks of Health Issues, at a Hospital of the Chinese Internationalized, Cosmopolitan Mega-City (Similar, mutatis-mutandis, to New York, Geneva, Strasbourg or Saint Petersburg, etc) :  Shanghai.  

"New York Times" Later Published a Long Article on "Pregnant Women" alleged "Problems" in Virus-Hit China, (on February 25 : UPDATED), But did Not Mention Any Case as "Hard" as that on which "Eurofora" was alerted, by well informed sources...

By an Incredible "Coincidence", the Prelude of that Baby's Birth was Full of various, converging Tensions, Anxiety, Risks and Threats, at Different Levels, related to a Daily Growing Deadly Virus' Epidemic, inevitably mixed also with several Socio-Political Issues of our Times (See Infra).

While, Astonishingly, the Aftermath of its Birth was, UnExpectedly, Synchronous with the Beginning of a Real, New Facts-Based, Hope to eventually Win that Collective Battle for Human Lives, as, for the 1st Time, that Deadly Virus started to Decelerate, and Even, apparently, indicating a Trend to be Contained, perhaps gradualy Diminish, Compared to the Past Weeks/Months, (See Facts Infra)

However, Questions still appear to remain Open, particularly about the, eventualy, more or less Harsh Prize, that this Too Early New Born, might, eventualy, have to pay in its Life, and that of its Family, for Having been Deprived of 1 or 2 Weeks Time of Development inside the Womb of its Mother, as was its Natural course, in normal circumstances.

And this was the Family's 1st and Unique, yet, Child-to-be, while China's NHC had Just Deplored anOther Year of "Low Birth Rate" Problems on 2019, which had Already led President Xi to Launch from 2016 a Policy of "2 Children" Per Family, (Istead of Only 1, until then), as an Annual Population "Decrease" Persisted, more or less, (with - 630.000 Less NewBorns on 2017, - 2 Millions Less on 2018, and - 580.000 Less on 2019), inciting the Government to Create a New, UpGraded, Infant Care Service, for Children Under 3 y.o., from 2020.

-------------------------------

Previously, the still Pregnant Mother and the Father had a Discussion with an Hospital Official, who, reportedly, Warned them that, in addition to Notorious "Transport' Restrictions", amidst the Virus' Crisis, the Medical Staff "might Not have the Means" to Properly Care for that Birth, if  it was Allowed to Complete its Natural Course, Up to 1 or 2 Weeks Later, adding that an Early, Artificial Birth might, Perhaps, be even less dangerous for the Future Baby's Health.

The "National Health Committee" (NHC) had, reportedly, Already spoken about "Reasonable Arrangements, as SOON as possible", with Pregnant Women ready for Birth, But this concerned, officially, Hospitals newly designated for Virus treatments, and it had not yet happened in that case.

However, theirs was a Public (and Not Private) Hospital, (that the Family had EnTrusted on a Warm Recommendation by close Friends at Shanghai, Paying something More in order to get Promised Better Services at a Special Department), and, therefore, at least theoretically, Subject to Any Eventual Instruction, by Regional and/or National Public Authorities for Possible Urgent Transfert of Medical Staff and/or Supplies towards the Overwhelmed Epicenter of the Virus at Hubei Province, during the Next Few Days...

--------------------

Indeed, Even if, Until around Middle January 2020, China's NHC had been Routinely Occupied with Various Other, entirely Different Issues, (as, f.ex., "Life Expectancy" Reaching "82,2" y.o. among Beijing Residents, Research on "TB" by Shanghai Labs, or Robot-Asssisted "Brain Angiography" and Surgery for Replacement of Feet's Bones, etc), Suddenly, on 20 January, NHC Officialy Announced that the New, Deadly Virus has been Proven to be "Transmissible" Between Humans, (in Fact, on January 29, it was Proven that such Transmissions Already Existed Since ..."the Middle of December 2019"), while, However, Top Experts Still Expected, Initially, that this New Virus, probably, would "Not" Spread as far as the "Scale" of SARS had done, Back on 2003, as they Claimed...

- But, Since January 21, China's President XI Orders "All-out Efforts ...to Curb the Spread of Virus", Including to "Mobilize All Available Resources", Followed by the "Strictest Measures" are also Announced against what they Called, then, "Viral Pneumonia", on January 21, (with 291 Infections and 7 Deaths then), which "Continues to Spread" and "Might Spread Further". Already, Since January 29, this New (2019-2020) Virus' Infections "Exceeded" those of SARS, Back on 2003).

>>> Most Important : It's at the Latest Since the 26th of January 2020, NHC's Director, Ma Xiaowei, Warned that China was "at a Crucial Time", in its Hard Struggle against that, UnKnown yet, New Deadly Virus' Spread, so that, inter alia, also Public Transport Suspensions and Other Transports' Restrictions might be Necessary, even at Schanghai, in Addition to "Medical Staff" and "Supplies"' Transferts towards Hubei Province's Epicenter, (where +5.000 More Hospital Beds were going to become available Soon : the Biggest, that of "Thunder God's Mountain", with 1.500 Beds, Scheduled for February 6, was Finaly Ready just 2 Days Later, Adding +100 Beds More), Promising for Virus' Patients the "Best Hospitals" and "Best Medical Resources". Before and After that, NHC was Full of various Announcements that Medical Staff from several Other Provinces was Going to Fight the Virus at Hubei/Wuhan.

=> Thus, Already, since the 27 of January, "959" Medical Staff from Various Provinces had been Send to the "Hardest Hit" Areas of Hubei (Wuhan, etc), and they were Due to be Followed asap. Also by anOther "1.600". On January 29, about "6.000 Health Workers" were Arriving at Hubei "From Accross China", (Following "a 1st Team from Shanghai"). On February 2, there are "8.310 Medical Staff members From ...Accross China", Coming from "15 Provinces and Municipalities, including Shanghai" (Cited 1st) "Despite Their own Difficulties", NHC Announced. On February 2, "1.400 Nurses" coming from ''NationWide" are Added, and on February 4, the Government "Assigns anOther +2.000 Medical Workers" at Hubei, (i.e. a Total of about + 11.700). To whom, Beijing's Hospitals Added anOther "667 Medical Workers" on February 8, while Hubei Still "Needs +2.250 More"... On February 10, a Total of "Nearly 30.000 Medical Workers accross the Country" had been "Assigned to ...Hubei", and "19 Other Designated Provinces" were due to Send Even "More" ! (This Includes "1.430 Shanghai Doctors and Nurses", "as of Feb 11", when anOther +214 were Added from Just 1 Hospital, NHC Noted).  And Hubei Government Decided, since February 2, the "Allocation of Secure Accommodation, and Daily Necessities" for InComing Medical Workers, Adding also "Protective Equipment" and various "Subsidies", Including "Daily + 43 $" more, (etc).

But, "Medical Supplies", (including "Masks" and Other "Protective" equipments, "DisInfectants", "DeContamination Materials", etc), Initially were, Still, InSufficient throughout the Country, to the point that, on January 31, China was Glad to Receive such an Aid by a Air-"Cargo" from Lukashenko's "Belarus", and on February 6, "Masks" from "Brunei" !  On February 1st, Prime Minister Li Keqiang asks to Give "More Medical Supplies to Regions Hit Harder" by the Virus. This became a Government Policy from February 2, with a "Priority" to "Accelerate" Medical Staff and Supplies towards Hubei, (While "Other Provinces" were "Urged" to organise "Flexible Ways ... to Arrange Work in Other Sectors")... + "20 Mobile Hospitals" are Added "from February 4" to "Wuhan" Virus' EpiCenter". On February 5, the Government announces that  "some Multi-Speciality Hospitals will be Transformed" and "Dedicated" to Virus' "Infected" Patients. Indeed, from February 4, NHC's Focus is "On the FrontLine" (i.e. at Hubei + against the Virus), "withOut Time to Spare !".

Meanwhile, the Numbers of Infections and Deaths caused by that Virus were Growing Each Day, Even with a considerable Acceleration Since 27 to 28 January, and at a Regular Pace at least Up to February 5 included : F.ex., on 28 January Infections Jump from 2.744 Up to 4.537, on 30 January they Reach 7.736, Jumping 1 Day Later up to 9.720, Growing to 11.821 on February 1st, Afterwards 14.411 (2 February), 17.238 (3 February), 20.471 (4 February), and Reaching 24.363 on 5 of February.

In Parallel, Airlines like USA's "Delta" Examine to Suspend Flights to/from China After "February 6", as the "Turkish Airlines" have Already Decided to do so, from that Date.

Even Direct, Open, and Harsh Political Attacks against the Chinese Government, (targetting particularly President Xi Jinping), and Attempting to Exploit the Virus' Crisis in order to Provoke Frustrations and Revolts, had been Launched at the Internet, (rapidly Echoed by some Foreign Medias, as, f.ex. UK's "Socialist/Liberal"-leaning Newspaper "Guardian", etc), f.ex. on February 4, (See Facts Infra).

-----------------------------

=> It's in these Exceptional Circumstances that the Family was led to Accept an also Exceptionaly Artificial (i.e. by Cesarian Surgery) and Early Birth (on February 6), as it had been Clearly Suggested by that Hospital's Authorities for them.

They Obviously Believed that, Given all those Exceptional Circumstances, such an Exceptional Sacrifice (of a Week or More of Human Development inside the Mother's Womb, and of a Natural Birth) Might be the Right Solution for All involved, and that, in real practice, probably they couldn't or shouldn't do otherwise.

------------------------------------

Indeed, Meanwhile, the Numbers of People Infected by that Virus (Both in All China, and particularly at Shanghai), and of those Killed by it, were Regularly Growing, almost Every Day, at least Until February 5, included.

+ Moreover, the Harsh Political Attack against the Chinese Government, and particularly President Xi Jinping, (Comp. Supra), that was Lauched from February 4, at the Internet, soon Echoed by some Medias in the Foreign Press, (f.ex. UK's "Guardian", etc), had Obviously Attempted to Exploit "the Great Virus"' (sic !), as it Characteristicaly called it, in order to Discredit the Public Authorities, Provoke Anger and Mass Revolt, Even Claiming that it was Doubtful whether a Change in China Nowadays could be made Peacefully, and Urging People to "Rage" and "let (their) Lives Burn" (sic !), for a "Break through", (etc), After which, would follow a ..."post-War (re-sic !!) ReConstruction" !

 - Accusing China's Government to be "InCompetent in Dealing with the CoronaVirus", and to have "made a Mess in Hubei province", added to Wider "InOperability", "DisCombobulation" and "Impotence", the Writer of that Pamphlet Titled : "VIRAL ALARM" (sic !),  former University Professor Xu Zhangrun, Destituted on 2019, Claimed that  the Chinese Authorities would be Responsible for a provoked "Economic Slowdown", added to "Isolation" by Other Countries' "Travel Restrictions", and for having "left the country withOut even enough face Masks", and with "CountLess numbers of People Unable to get adequate Medical Attention, ...Abandoned as they wail in HopeLess Isolation", Even for "the ever-Increasing Death toll [caused by the Virus]", pushing towards " a Vast Chasm" where "there is No Refuge from this Viral Reality", so that "Because of this Great Virus, the People are enRaged", and the "Only Hope" would be "that in the Wake of the CoronaVirus, the People will Reconsider their Situation, and...Will Awaken to its predicament", as he says...  

>>> - Interestingly, (while some  Notoriously Suspect a "Labo-Frabricated" Virus, including former Twice-Elected Iran's President Ahmadinejad, "NOBEL" Prize French Professor Montagnier, etc.: See http://www.eurofora.net/newsflashes/news/ahmadinejadonlabomadevirus1.html + http://www.eurofora.net/newsflashes/news/ahmadinejadonlabomadevirus2.html +  http://www.eurofora.net/newsflashes/news/nobelprofonlabmadevirus.html), that former "Professor of University",  so Fond of the "Great Virus" (Comp. Supra), Accuses what he calls a "Tyranny" in China's Nowadays "Governance, to be "Undermining a Technocratic System" (sic !), that he Praises, Based on "a vast Corps of competent Technocrats", who would "form.. a Highly Capable Coterie of Specialists and Administrators", in what he Openly Names as a "New TechnoCracy" and Even a "TECHNOCRATIC CLASS" (re-sic !!), seeking "Personal Advancement" and "Self-Improvement" and "Promotion", that would be particularly "Rewarding", in a "Modern Bureaucratic System".

- On the Contrary, China's President Xi Jinping, with an "Instruction" of January 27, had Urged, certainly, "the Party" to "Leed and Unite the People", But, mainly to "Rely on the People" in order "to Win the Fight" against the Virus, ("Scientifically", with "Precision" and "Unity").

=> - Thus, Professor Zhangrun Heavilly Criticizes, particularly the Chinese President Jinping, for what he Claims to be a "Communist Party's ...<<Red 2nd Generation>", with a "ReVival of <<Red Culture>>" and "the appearance of Revolutonary Committees", during "Recent Years", "run by People nurtured on the “Politics of the Sent-down Youth” ["that is, of the Cultural Revolution era—...during the late 1960s and early 1970s", as his Translator in English Reminds], representing "the Worst Political  Team to have Run China Since 1978" (sic !), [i.e., Since the Suppression of that "Cultural Revolution" ; Comp. Supra), and especialy "over the Past 6 Years" ["under Xi Jinping", as the Translator notes], in what he calls a "Leninist-Stalinist", "Maoist Style" (re-sic !!)...

----------------------------

 >>> However, Contary to those Scary "Predictions" of that self-styled "Prophet of Doom" (Comp. Supra), Suddenly, by an Incredible Coincidence, ...Immediately After the Early Birth of that Child, (Comp. Supra), i.e. Since February 6, a Surprizing "U-Turn" Appears in the Fight Against that Deadly Virus, with the Number of Infections Starting to Regularly Fall Down, Day after Day, until they Form a Crystal-Clear and Steady Downward Trend, (towards a probable Containment of the Virus, possible Prelude of an eventual Future Victory of China's Anti-Virus Struggle) !

    - Already, Since January 29, a Senior Expert had Warned that the Virus would Reach its "Peak" in "1 Week or 10 Days" Later, (i.e. around February 5 or 8). This Obviously meant an Augmentation of Dangersous Tensions, Until then, and the Start of a Better Trend towards Overcoming the Virus(' Crisis, After that... And, by an Astonishing Coincidence, those Dates Matched the BirthDay Fixed for this Shanghai Baby, much Earlier than Normal and with an Artificial (Cesarian Surgery) instead of a Natural Birth (6 February)...  

    => If its Family (Simple Private Citizens) might, eventually, had Missed those Medical News, is it possible that Even that Public Hospital's Direction had Nothing Heard about such Important Progonostics made by an Official Public Announcement of China's National Health Committee (NHC) ?     

    + And, was, then, Vain the "Sacrifice" that this Baby's Father and Mother made, (with Even Risks for possible Health Issues in the Future ; Comp. Supra) ?   

    At any case, it's a Surprizing FACT that, Precisely Since that Crucial Date of February 6, 2020, the Numbers of Infections by the Virus Started to Become Lower and Lower, almost Every Day, Both throughout All the Country and in Shanghai City itself !    

    F.ex., while Between the 1st and 5th Day of February, the Total Number of New Infections per Day in China Constantly was Growing Higher, from + 2.212 New Cases, Up to + 2.590 New, +2.838 New, and + 3.893 New,  

    on the Contrary, Precisely Since February 6, (i.e. Just After that Early + Artificial Birth : Comp. Supra), Suddenly, the Trend Radically Changes, and it Becomes  predominantly Downward, with the Daily Total of New Infactions Falling from +3.893 Down to Just 3.697 (February 6), and Afterwards even +3.151 (February 7), Followed by + 2.657 (February 9), +2.484 (February 11), +2.068 (February 12), +1.820 (February 13), +1.506 (February 15), +1.121 (February 16), and so on...          

    => To the Point that, for the 1st Time Since the Beginning of the Virus' Epidemic, (Officialy from the Middle or End of December 2019), Already on February 4, NHC found some "Encouraging Signs", at least in "Statistics" showing a "Dropping Fatality Rate", (probaly After Recent Measures taken Also on Drugs, such as "HCQ, Remdesivir, or Ritonavir", etc., out of an Initial Study of "30" Possible Drugs against the Virus, made by Shanghai's "Institute of Materia Medica"), as well as "Mild Symptoms" in a Large Majority of cases, Urging People "Not to Panic"...

    + On February 8, NHC Officialy Announced in a Press Conference, that "Recovery" cases "Rise" (Including Even of an Old Man, Aged 91 y.o. !), While, on the Contrary, the "Infection Rate" is "Lowering" (See Numbers cited Supra), as well as the "Fatality Rate", particularly After the Recent Massive "Transferts" of "Medical Staff" from "Allover China" towards "Hubei"'s Hotspot.

     - Concerning "Shanghai", on February 10 is Announced that it had Only "1 Dead" from the Virus, out of "295" Infections, (Among a Population of More than ..33 Millions of People !). Meanwhile, "From the 2 of February", the City's "Subway" Transported around "800.000" People per Day, while its "Ground" "Public Transports" more than "1 Million" Daily, (i.e. the 1/8 of its Usual Traffick, But, Still, Fair Enough, Considering Also that this was a "Holiday" Period, with Many People's "Return" between "7 to 10 February").

    ++ On "Cure Rate", a "Remarkable" Augmentation Up to "6,1%" on February 10, From Only "1,7%", on January 27, was Observed at "Hubei" Province Hotspot, according to the NHC, Mainly "Thanks to the Transport of Medical Personel coming From All along the Country", (Comp. Supra). But, Even at the Total of China's National "Proportion of Patients Cured" from the Virus, the Amelioration is Bigger : Up to "8,2%" From Only "1,3%", Between February 10 and January 27 !

    +++ On February 12, the NHC Announced Officialy that the Number of "China's New confirmed Cases" of Virus' INFECTIONS, "Outside Hubei Province, ...has been DROPPING for 8 Consecutive Days" ! Indeed, "the Numbers of New" Infections "in These Provinces, from February 3 to 11, were  : 890, 731, 707, 696, 558, 509, 444, 381 and 377"... And, Later, (after this Number Fell Down to "176" on February 15), NHC Added that such New Infections Continued to "Drop" during "12 Consecutive Days", until Feb. 16.

    ++++ "Fewer New Infections, More Cured !", locaciously Titled NHC's Headline News, on February 12.

    +++++ "Since February 7, (i.e., practicaly From the Early Birth of that Baby : Comp. Supra), Each Day has seen Some 500 Patients walk Out of Hospital, after Recovery !", Enthousiasticaly revealed the NHC in a Press Conference on Feb. 13. (Mainly "Anti-Viral" Drugs and "Oxygen" Support, were Credited with that Result).

    ++++++ For the 1st Time, China's President Xi Jinping, after a High-Level CPC Meeting on February 12, reportedly Hailed "Positive Changes" in the "Situation of the Epidemic", and "Hard-Won Progress" by "All Sides" in the Latest "Results", Urging to "Focus on Priorities", "withOut Any Let up", in order to "Win the People's War against the Epidemic".

    +++++++ Moreover, NHC Announced, on February 19 (UP-DATED), that "China's Daily Number of newly Recovered Virus' Patients has Surpassed that of New ...Infections, for the 1st Time", (since "1.824 People Recovered" Today, While "new ... Infections" were Only "1.749", i.e. Less). In Other Words, New Recoveries Started to OutNumber New Infections.

    => Obviously, All this, Opens a Way towards ultimately "Winning" the Fight against the Virus in China.

    However, that Shanghai Early NewBorn and its Family, do Not Know Why its "Sacrifice" (Comp. Supra), by being Deprived of 1 or 2 Weeks of Human Developmen in its Mother's Womb, and having an Artificial (Cesarian Surgery) Instead of a Natural Birth, with a Risk of Health Issues, practically Coincided with a Crucial "U-Turn" in China's Hard Fight vis a vis the Deadly Virus, (Comp. Facts cited Supra).

    Nevertheless, they have Seen, at least, that its' Tragic BirthDay de facto "Marked" that Astonishing "U-Turn" towards a Possible Victory of Chinese People against the Virus (Comp. Supra) !

(../..)

------------------------------------------

                                    + But How is it Possible for that Hospital's Direction to have Ignored NHC's Official Warning that the Virus' Crisis was Reaching a "Peak" at the Beginning of February (Comp. Supra), so that Soon, things would Go Better, and that Child (as also others) might have been Born Naturally, After Completing its Normal Development in its Mothers' Womb, withOut Needing Cesarian Surgery, Neither Risking to provoke this or that Health Issue ? Why did it Commit such a Big Error ?

    This was an, Apparently, Respectable, Big Hospital, Linked to an Important University, and Founded (along with Various Other Social Outlets) under the Auspices of a late Historic Personality in China's Socio-Political Life during a Long Time in the Past, which had been, in Addition, Warmly Recommended to the NewBorn's Family by a Friendly Couple, that they EnTrusted.

    However, Who was Responsible for the Direction of that Hospital in Real Practice, at that Period of Time ?

    A Press Investigation by "Eurofora" found that, in Fact, during the Last 2 or 3 Years, (Since 2017) it was Directed by a Typical "TechnoCrat", (precisely of that Kind of "Technocratic Class" that Renegate former Professor Xu Zhangrun was Calling to Revolt Against China's Government, and particularly versus President Xi Jinping and the CPC Party, on pretext of the "Great Virus", in his February 4 Published Text of Harsh Propaganda : Comp. Supra), since she had, apparently, done Nothing Else, throughout a Long Life, than to  Exclusively Focus, Selfishly, on her Own Personal Career, as an "Expert"...     

    +Moreover, she is widely Known for mainly 1 thing : To have been Always Pushing towards Giving to a "Technocratic" Lobby the Controversial Power to ...Artificially Fabricate Children, (Excluded from Natural Births), inside their Labos, through "Artificial Reproduction Technologies", as so-called "Test-Tube Babies", of "In Vitro Fertilisation (IVF)", etc, under Various Pretexts ! As, f.ex., the Incredible (and UnSubstantiated) Claim that ...More than 25% of Chinese Couples, (i.e. 1/4), would have Become Nowadays "InFertile" (sic !)... (While Even the UK Experts, usualy Fans of Tech., speak of Just "1 in 8" Cases, i.e. the Half of that). This had Started right from the Beginning of her Career, when, After having been an Ordinary Provincial Medical Student, she Briefly Studied at a UK-Influenced outlet in ...Hong Kong, before Returning Back to her Province During Many Decades..., (with, Afterwards, Only some Short Stays at Cincinati/US or at Kiel/Germany, etc., much Later, Towards the End of her Career).

    ++ In Addition, she Systematicaly Pushes to Give to "Technocrats" Also Power Not Only on the (Artificial) Process of Births, But Even over its Substantial Content ! Indeed, she's Obviously a Fan of "Gene-Editing" and other Genetic Manipulations on Human Embryos, (Added to Pre-Implantation Genetic Screening, etc., Practically allowing to "Chose" those who Will be Born, or Not, according, f.ex., to "the Parents' Expectations", and/or if their Genes Match Various Requirements, etc), also under Various Controversial Pretexts : Including, f.ex., the Alleged Recent "Discovery" of "More than 10.000 Genetic Diseases" (sic !), as she Claimed, Suddenly, Only During the Last Few Years, i.e. When Controversial and Dangerous for Humanity, "Gene-Editing" Technologies (threatening to Affect Even Future Generations) notoriously Emerged at the Forefront of Actuality, (at the Latest on 2017/2018, etc)...

    Obviously for that Purpose, she Now Heads 2 Labos, on Human "Embryos" (at Shanghai) and on "Genetics" (in her Province), and has Just co-Signed, on 2019/2020 a Controversial Publication on "Recent" Developments in (mainly Artificial) "Reproduction" of ..."Mamals" (sic !), where ..."Mouses", "Dogs", "Pigs", "ZebraFish", "Monkeys" or "Baboons" (etc), are examined Together with "Humans", particularly on ..."Hyper-Andro-Genism" (sic !) Characteristics affecting Women, (already Suprizingly Apparent at Most of Her own Photos), added to Men's alleged "InFertility", etc., and Various Other Alleged "Genetic" Problems, (Comp. Supra), for which, Controversial "Gene-Editing" Technologies are Presented as if they would be the Only "Promising" Solution of the "Future", Even if, at least Until Now, they Stil Fail by InAccuracy or InEfficiency,  and even More by Serious Risks of "Off-Target Effects", (sometimes "Unlikely to be Detected"), as she Admits, (in Addition to "Serious Risks for Diabetes and CardioVascular Diseases" Threatening More those Born Artificialy, Instead of Naturaly), Threatening to Provoke particularly "Cancers"...

    All that, Added also to Claims for "Gene Editing Technologies", very "Rapidly" developed in "Recent Years", as  "the prefered Tools for Species-oriented Transformation" (sic !), and Various "Adverse Effects"' "Trans-Generational Transmission", (etc), particularly After the November 2018 Scandal of Genetic Manipulations on Human Embryos HERITABLE by Future Generations in 3 New-Born Babies Secretly Fabricated by a Chinese Technocrat Educated, Funded, Led, and Publicized by a USA Lobby close to Former "Socialist/Liberal" POTUS Barack Hussein Obama, (See: ... + ..., etc), could make any "Eurofora"-related Person, here in Strasbourg, (Given our Notorious and Crystal-clear Opposition to such Serious Dangers against Humanity) a Probable Target of Hostility, from some among Such Controversial Technocratic Lobbies, where a Possible "Motive of (Any Eventual) Crime" would be Obvious...

- But, What about that Family of this Curiously Early-Born Child in Shanghai (Comp. Supra) ? At any case, this Controvesial recent Director of that Hospital (Comp. Supra), was certainly Conscious about the Precious Value of 1 or 2 Weeks More in Human Development inside its Mother's Womb, Until the Completion of that Embryo's Maturity and its Natural Birth, Later than February 6 (Comp. Supra), since she (that Hospital's CEO) Often Speaks hershelf about the Importance of the "Development Process", of any Still "Developing Embryo", and, particularly, of its' "Timing", concerning precise "Stages", Measured Not in Months, but in "Weeks" or Even "Days", accross "3 Levels" made of (a) Bones, Skin, Arterial network, etc., (b) Organs, and (c) Brain, Nervous system, etc., at the "Outer Layer", (i.e. also the Last)...

+ As for those "Technocrats", that renegate former Professor Xu Zhangrun Attempted to make Harshly Revolt against China's Government, and particularly versus President Xi Jinping, under Pretext of wjat he called "the Great Virus", in his February 4 Published Text of Propaganda,  (Comp. Supra), the Way that this Hospital's Controversial CEO Concludes her Latest Paper that she Recently Co-Signed, Together with some other Like-minded Experts, Focused on Controversial "Gene-Editing" "Applied" to the Artificial Fabrication of Children in Labos, (Comp. Supra), appears Blatantly Characteristic and Typical :

Indeed, just After a more or less Clear (even if, at least Partly, Controversial) Claim that :

- A given Technological "Method" would have "been "Successfully" used for Brain and Cancer tissue sections", according to them, via the "above-mentioned Methods ...(which would be) Useful, But ... do Not provide ... (the Wished) ReSolution",

+ Suddenly Appears the Following Block of Astonishingly InComprehensive Text :

"The transcriptome in vivo analysis (TIVA) approach uses a photoactive tagging strategy for capturing mRNA from single cells in live tissue (Lovatt et al., 2014). Sequential fluorescence in situ hybridization (SeqFISH) and multiplexed error-robust fluorescence in situ hybridization (MERFISH) technologies are based on single-molecule fluorescence in situ hybridization (smFISH) (Chen et al., 2015; Lubeck et al., 2014; Shah et al., 2016). "SeqFISH uses a temporal combinatorial barcoding approach. For a given transcript, "a limited set of fluorophores is used, and "the transcript is barcoded by sequential probe hybridization" (Lubeck et al., 2014; Shah et al., 2016). ["CRYSTAL-CLEAR" !!!???...] MERFISH uses temporal combinatorial barcoding with a two-step labeling approach. The encoding probes are composed of a RNA-targeting sequence and two flanking readout sequences, which are designed for targeting hybridization followed by readout hybridization (Chen et al., 2015). MERFISH applies a modified Hamming code for correction of errors in the temporal barcode. Three in situ-based sequencing methods, including targeted in situ sequencing (ISS), fluorescence in situ sequencing (FISSEQ) and spatially-resolved transcript amplicon readout mapping (STARmap), have been reported (Ke et al., 2013; Lee et al., 2014a; Wang et al., 2018c). These methods use rolling-circle amplification (RCA) to amplify the signal, and the product is then subjected to sequencing-by-ligation methods. STARmap, in particular, uses a specific amplification of nucleic acids via intramolecular ligation (SNAIL) approach to omit the reverse transcription step", (sic !) thus Increasing Efficiency (-AH !...) (Wang et al., 2018c).

- Did you Hold your Breath ?...

+ Immediately Afetrwars, commes the Final "Conclusion"'s, controversial but clear Claims :

- "In Summary, Scientific Research on Reproductive Biology has been Greatly Prompted by ... Novel Technologies. In particular, ... Modifications of mammalian Germ-Line cell development and human Infertility. In the Future, We Expect that the Continuing development of....Gene Editing Technologies, and their Applications to the field (i.e. Artificial Fabrication of Children) Will Enable ...deep understanding of ...Development and Diseases, which will eventually lead to better Diagnosis and Therapy approaches for Human Infertility. ( Sic ! => IBID, PMA/ART)

++ Follows the usual Mention on :

>>> "Compliance and Ethics :  The Author(s) declare that they have "NO CONFLICT OF INTEREST", (sic !)...  

- Really ? Nobody among them doesn't Head "Labos" involved in Genetic Manipulation of Human Embryos, which Seeks Public Authorisations, Recognition/Promotion, and Funds ?...

=> Such peculiar Prose would Obviously Deserve to be placed Side by Side with ...World-Famous Modern Litterature Writer, ...James Joyce's "Ulysses" Tragi-Comical Master-Piece !

*Strasbourg/Angelo Marcopolo/- What will happen mainly in EU Parliament during the next few Months will be Crucial for the Success, or not, of the forthcoming "Conference for Europe's Future" (2020-2022), as it results, inter alia, also from a Topical discussion that "Eurofora" had Yesterday with Mainstream Top French MEP Pascal Durand, from the "ReNew" Group/Liberals, (notoriously boosted by President Macron), and former Vice-President of the "Green" Group, who is particularly Committed in the still on-going Preparations of that Conference, whose Originality and Efficiency will Depend from the Authenticity, or not, of EU Citizens' role, and, especially, from whether there will be a Real Dialogue among Citizens and MEPs on the Conclusions for necessary Changes :  Only if an Old Division and Mistrust, between fans of Direct Democracy and supporters of Indirect Democracy is overcome, mainly through a Forward-looking Alliance and Cooperation between EU Citizens and MEPs, could it, then, become possible to Build a really New Situation in Europe. And this is also related with "Eurofora" Project itself... (See Infra).                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 

-------------

 - "What I Wish is to arrive into establishing 5 Groups (or "Colleges")", inside the Conference for Europe's Future, Durand stressed to "Eurofora" from the outset :

=> "1 for MEPs, another for EU Commission, added to EU Council (i.e. Member States+), anOther for Civil Society (i.e. NGOs, etc), as well as one for EU Citizens".

>>> I.e. Uniting Citizens in 1 Body, instead of Dispersing them through Various "Thematic Agoras" only, as a controversial First EU Parliament's Resolution, on the Contrary, pushed, Back on January 2020, (See http://www.eurofora.net/newsflashes/news/euparliamentoncitizensforeufuture.html ).

--------------------------------

+ Moreover, "I would like to reach" Conclusions "with real Exchanges" between them, "where they would Cooperate"  together, the Mainstream French MEP Highlighted, on the Final Perspectives, (i.e. closely Approaching "Eurofora"s key ViewPoint about "Dialogue" among Citizens and EU Political Deciders : Comp. ibid).

-------------------------------------

- "For the Time being", (i.e., apparently, until about May 2020, at the latest), "Nothing has been yet Decided", he told us, (considering also negotiations with EU Commission, EU Council, etc).

- "But I am Aware of the Fact that We may Not have yet a Majority in EU Parliament", the "ReNew" (Liberal) MEP soberly Warned, (while also estimating that several Other MEPs, particularly from the "Green" Group and various others, could be, in fact, very Near to the above-mentioned Key-Points)...

- Because, it seems that, currently, a Number of MEPs, still eyes somehow critically extended Citizens' interventions in EU Parliament's affairs, Worried that this might encroach on their "Mandate" for InDirect Representation.., Durand denounced.

------------------------------------------

>>> However, once raised that "Classic" Issue between "Direct" and "Indirect" Democracy, "Eurofora" immediately attracted Durand's attention to the Fact that our Project can serve as a Key Part of a Strategy aiming Not to Oppose EU Citizens to MEPs, but, on the Contrary, to build a Strong Alliance between them, Helping to Start Using Together their Reciprocal advantages for a Better and more efficient functioning of EU Parliament and European Democracy in general :

- F.ex.: By launching Systematic Public Debates at Web Fora, etc., between EU Citizens and EU Political Deciders before Measures affecting their Lives and/or Society at large, MEPs could certainly Augment EU Parliament's Visibility to the Medias, "Eurofora" argued and the mainstream MEP immediately understood.

A Fortiori, when even EU's "Lisbon Treaty", as it stands, already Calls for regular "Dialogue" with EU Citizens and Civil Society on EU Administrations' acts, ...

+ Even more important : MEPs notoriously Complaint that EU Parliament is the Only Parliament in the World whose Members are still Deprived of any Legislatiive Initiative, i.e. they are Hindered to Table any Bill, (since it's Only the EU Commission which holds such a power in Europe). So that Give to EU Parliament such a Right, through the forthcoming "Conference on Europe's Future" (2020-2022), is one of the demands currently on the air.

=> But, what isN't yet so clearly known, is the Fact that, in practice, MEPs already have such a Legislative Initiative Right, IF they act Together with EU Citizens !

- Indeed, "Lisbon Treaty"s famous EU "Citizens' Initiative", requires just 1 Million Signatures from several EU Member Countries, i.e. something that, normally, Any European Political Party with MEPs represented  EU Parliament can easily achieve. So that it's enough, for MEPs of any EU Political Party, to practically Coordinate their actions with those of their Fans, in order to get the required Number of Signatures asap. for any Legislative Bill they might wish to Table in EU Parliament...

- The 1st initial Objection from MEP Durand was to remind the Fact that, until now, that "EU Citizens' Initiative", notoriously, had Not worked well, with Only a Few managing to get succesfully through a lot of petty Bureaucratic requirements. That's obviously True, But Nothing Hinders any EU Political Party might wish, to Organize, Train, and Activate its Electoral Base accordingly. As for that notorious "Volcanic Explosion of Bureaucratic Ashes" (as "Eurofora" had characteristicaly named it, in a series of Press Conferencies in EU Parliament : See, f.ex. ..., etc), which, by a coincidence, had appeared the same day of a famous Islandic Volcano's eruption, closely followed by the announcement of a too Long list of Strict Bureaucratic Procedural Conditions put by a controversial EU Commission's decision, it can Easily be Rectified whenever there might be a real Political Will to Simplify things : It does Not need at all any Treaty Change !

+ The 2nd initial Durand's Objection, was to Warn that political Opponents "might Accuse us to Exploit the Citizens", as he said. But a Political Party and its Supporters are a Continuum of similar Socio-Political Interests and Values, they are practically the Same, so that, in Fact, they are Helping Each other in seeking to obtain a Common Goal.

=> So that MEPS and Can Cooperate Together for a Better Europe in the foreseable Future...

Most of the times, Both in these and other Various Concrete Aspects of that matter, French MEP Durand Replied to "Eurofora" with a simple :  - "I Agree with that !".

=> Let's Hope that Many more among EU Parliament's MEPs will also Read and Agree with this Text...

*Strasbourg/Angelo Marcopolo/- Replying Today to an "Eurofora" Question, CoE New Secretary General, Marija Buric (2019-2024), reacted to ECHR President's anouncement, in EU Parliament Yesterday, about EuroJudges starting to be Consulted for Interpreting CoE's BioEthical Rules, "for the 1st Time in History", by Expressing her "Trust" to Strasbourg's PanEuropean Court, in general, even when it notoriously adapts its methods of interpretation to the needs of nowadays Society (Comp. Infra), But, also Warning that there are "Sensitive" Issues in this particular area, inviting to be Careful.

-----------

 - "Eurofora" pointed to the Fact that Buric had Concluded her Speech by a Call to "Defend CoE's Rules" and Values, and we observed that BioEthics come Nowadays at the Forefront of Topical and "Hot" Contradictions. while ECHR's President had just announced, Yesterday in EU Parliament in Strasbourg, that, "for the 1st Time in History", EuroJudges Start to be Consulted on the interpretation of CoE's 1997/8 "Oviedo" Convention on Human Dignity and Bioethics, (See: http://www.eurofora.net/newsflashes/news/coesgburiconechrbioethicsinterpretation.html), Knowing that ECHR uses, generaly, since 1970, to Adapt somehow the Interpreted Texts to the Living Society of our Times. Even if this might be, in general, Interesting, (particularly for Long-living Texts, as that of ECHR, which Date More than 70 Years), nevertheless, given also the Fact that BioEthics raise certain particularly "Sensitive" Issues for Humankind, (while CoE's Rules there Date "Only" around 20 Years-Time: Since 1998), wouldn't we all, Better be "Carefull" on the way they might be Interpretered ?

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 -  " I CanNot Commend on what ECHR's President said", the New CoE's SG observed from the outset, Carefuly.

-  "But  it's true that the Court tries to Adapt itself on the Needs of the Society" in general, "in order to go forward, and ameliorate certain things".

 - "As far as I'm personally concerned, I am inclined to Trust the Court, because it did always well, and made advance certain issues".

- However, "as You said, this (BioEthics) is a very Sensitive matter", she Warned.

- "But also a too Complex one, for me to say more" now, she modestly concluded Carefully, (Comp. Supra).

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

ECHR has been Already Consulted on BioEthics also, f.ex;, by French Supreme Courts on "End of Life" Cases ("Lambert", etc), "Surrogate Mothers"' cases, etc., But Only in order to interpret the PanEuropean Convention on Human Rights' classic general text, (particularly Article 2 = end or beginning of "Life", and Article 8 = "Private life/Family").

+ "Very Recently", CoE's Committee on BioEthics asked ECHR to give a Consultative Interpretation about Article 7 of CoE's "Oviedo" Treaty, on "Human Rights and Dignity of the Human Person in Medicine and Biology" (1997-1998), concerning Measures on Persons suffering from "Mental Disorders", revealed Yesterday at EU Parliament ECHR's President Alexandros Sicilianos.

Any Member-State can also do so, in Addition to that Committtee itself, but it's "the 1st Time in History", until now, that ECHR would Interpret anOther, Different Text from that of the 70 Years Old PanEuropean Convention on Human Rights, and, meanwhile, it's Competent Committee just Started to Adopt the required New Rules of Procedure, for this new era, he revealed; (See : ..., etc). "Hot" Topical BioEthical Issues, such as a Global Ban on "Human Cloning" (since 1998), Heritable Human Genome Editing, etc., are included among the Many and Various "Oviedo" Convention BioEthic matters.

+ By the way, President Alexander Sicilianos' Birthplace : Greece, which is due to take over CoE's rotating Chairmanship during the Period of May - November 2020, has notoriously proposed the ECHR for this same year's (which coincides with CoE's 70th Anniversary) prestigious "Nobel" Peace Prize.

 ------------------

 CoE SG Catherine Lalumière's (with whom, "Eurofora"s co-Founder had Started to work at the CoE) Bureau and of the Congres of Local and Regional Authorities of Europe (CLRAE), as well as Denis Huber, President of CoE's Staff Association, and former Director of CoE's "North-South" Center (Lisbon).

Other Questions concerned well-known Issues, (such as "BREXIT", Ukraine, Russia, Turkey, OSCE, Budget, etc), and the Replies were mostly Familiar to those who had followed Buric's recent interventions at CoE's Assembly, etc.
