I haven’t seen many leftists defending China over this.

msm failing. Another thing, Reading comments on cbs, abc news about "communities of color" and covid, it was nice to see black people dissing the networks, rejecting the attempted discord, really awsome.

Looks like Democrats tactic of being all nicey nice and soft with China an And viciously blaming Trump and America as if they are to blame for this pandemic is not working. Hope Dems continue it
It really, really feels like you are the one spreading propaganda here.

No one is viciously blaming Trump or America.

And hasn't Trump been making "nicey-nice" with Xi? At least as long as his base cheered that on. Then, when the base turns, Trump turns with them. Because, politics. Principles don't matter, politics do.

The Fakestream Media will keep blaming everything on Trump and kissing China's rear end and the Dims will follow suit....they seem incapable of rational thought.

The latest is that the pangolin, a prehistoric ant eater seems to be the carrier of this bug- maybe- It’s been mentioned that they might eradicate the species. The conditions of how they jump to humans can be greatly diminished by the world insisting something be done as far as hygiene. Good luck as some places don’t even have fresh water. I think the studies have shown the zoonoses viruses came from camels, bats, pigs, rats, cats- fleas,mosquitoes -and other parasites. So blaming one country for this one - ok - but not going to fix the situation long term. And to blame the Democrats is hilarious nonsense.

That hasn't been confirmed. Many of the initial cases never entered the wet market. It could, for example, have come from some farmer who was collecting bat guano, or who interacted with a bat in his barn. Said farmer may easily have been asymptomatic and spread it around.

Just take a look at the "opinion" pieces on the Daily Beast. Yahoo features them sometimes.

When you think about it, all those horrible viruses that have wreaked havoc all have come from China in recent times.
7 of 10 have come from Asia, and 5 of 10 came from China if I recall correctly.

Cut off all tourism, give businessmen and students 6 months to wrap up business and study here, and then out they ALL go. No more coming in either...not matter where the flight came from, if they are Chinese nationals, deny entry.

Same treatment for any countries that have wet markets.
