I don’t know if I agree with your estimate but I know I cannot believe a word from the lying Chinese.

It was evident from the beginning that the blame lays squarely on China's supression of EVERYTHING having to do with the Wuhan virus.
If you are going to blame China for suppressing the truth you have no choice but to also blame Trump for suppressing the truth.

China and Trump both had a similar first instinct response to the virus, which was to lie about it.

Again, if you are mad at China for lying about this and not mad at Trump for lying about this you are simply a hack.

Trump's lies cost us 2 months of preparation and this thing doubles every 3 to 4 days.

2 months to stockpile masks, respirators, and tests. 2 months to scale testing and healthcare infrastructure. Now we are stuck trying to scale infrastructure while the virus hits the most rapid part of it's growth cycle. Trump's (in)actions will cost thousands of lives before this is over, all because he was worried about "optics".

It's going to run through the entire human population and then maybe we'll be back to that of the 1950s. At least that's what so many people have said they want anyhow.

Hospitals and clinics around the country have a dire shortage of personal protective equipment (PPE). This is hampering both Covid-19 testing, as well as treatment, during a time when our healthcare system is in danger of being overwhelmed with patients at any rate! Mr Trump has signed the Defense Production Act, giving him the authority to order American companies to make and rush the distribution of more PPE, but he has refused to actually order anyone to do it. Our healthcare workers are begging for this equipment!

I ask all Americans to contact their governors, senators, congressional officers and ask them to put pressure on the White House to get the President to ORDER the equipment be made and distributed as fast as humanly possible that our healthcare workers need during this national emergency. Lives are at stake!

I wasn't aware that a virus could teleport you to the past, but thank you for that bit of unusual news.

I find it incredibly hard to believe that North Korea has 'zero' coronavirus cases.

Alarm and scepticism over N Korea claim of being coronavirus free

Quote:
More than 160 countries across the world are battling COVID-19, but as coronavirus challenges even the world's most sophisticated health systems, there is one nation that claims to have no cases at all: North Korea.

"Not one novel coronavirus patient has emerged," Song In Bom, an official from North Korea's emergency health committee said last month in the official Rodong Sinmun newspaper.

No one is going to prove it one way or the other !!!

Could China do it ? Absolutely !!!
The timing of this pandemic makes it suspect !!! Is it an attempt to interfere in a US election ? Its possible !!! Many countries attempt to do that and China is one of them !!!

Truth is the entire world economy is going to look different once this China Pandemic runs it course not just the US economy !!! There will be changes on the political landscape across the world too !!!

You've basically said that China and Trump share culpbility in the spread of the Wuhan Virus. Which is basically ... well, stupid.

Two months? China didn't let ANYONE in to help til the end of January.

They do. It isn't stupid, it's true.

The virus was here, doubling every 3 to 4 days while Trump downplayed it and called it the flu, while he called the media response a hoax. It wasn't until his precious stock market started to take a dive that he took it seriously.

He absolutely contributed to the problem.
