China's foreign ministry claims the virus was introduced to China by the US military. Anyway, we don't need to go fighting with China. We will be needing them for all the medical equipment and medicine required to deal with this virus. We don't produce much of our own anymore. Who knows? We may end up having to ask China for medical personnel to help with this before it is over since we are not addressing the problem and it is quickly blowing up beyond our ability to handle it.

I would like to see President Trump take a strong stand against China for being negligent and causing injury and death to our citizens, in addition to great financial damages - and offset our debt with China to pay for these damages!



OH trust me, the members of the wto are going make them pay a price.


For China to blame the US as being the originators of the virus and hiding it under the vaping deaths that started more than a year ago shows how much they will lie to save face. The irony is that it was China's unregulated vaping liquids that caused those deaths as well.


They freakin killed our pets by the thousands because they added anti-freeze to the treats.



The world knows who started it. Now we need to determine if it was a bio-weapon gone bad.

Wuhan is where they have their bio-weapon labs. Fairly easy to connect the dots.

They should send you back a bag of dog poop. The Spanish flu of 1918, which originated in the YS, caused 38 million death worldwide. . You want to try paying that ?

The lab is 17 miles up river and on the other side of the Yangtze River. If there was a leak then there would be a trail of sickness all the way down, there is no such trail. Your idea Is DOA.

Imagine if this type of disease had happened in a country with a weak federal government like right wingers want?
Why? Because strong federal governments have prevented it?

Looking down the list of affected countries it seems to have spared nobody.

Because countries with weak federal governments cant mobilize the necessary resources quickly and forcefully enough to deal with it.

This "anti-government, healthcare for me and to hell with everyone else"-mentality does not work with pandemics. The virus is very democratic. It does not spare people based on income.
