news is controlled by our govt, the CIA specifically, and they are brainwashing americans with it.
here's an eye opening video on how much they control the media narrative by planting agents.

right now, china has been branded as enemy #1 so I take every news regarding china (as well as Iran, Russia, NK, etc.) with a truck load of salt.

and there's evidence that it was in brazil and spain going as far back as march. we can play this game all day, but the FACT of the matter is, no one knows where it originated, and that includes the both of us.

What I see on many media platforms and discussion boards is that this virus has been wrongly abused as a political weapon in the US.

We are all in the same global crisis together. 219 countries have been brought to their knees economically and close to 2 million people have died so far. Every country faces the same problems as the US and death-rates in the western world are fairly identical. The US was hit hard during the first wave while the EU is currently being hit very hard during the 2nd wave.

In the US, Trump has been harshly criticized about how he handled the virus and his opponents gone as far as to call it the "Trump virus." We all could criticize the same way our leaders in the EU in the current deadly 2nd wave. In the meantime, I see that there is a big party in Wuhan...

that article might be political theater, at least during the onset of covid, which arguably is the most important period of trying to contain it. this guy came through with zero friction.

the bolded is the most important statement that our politicians are failing to understand.
instead of working together, they exploited a pandemic to ratchet up hostility against China and fight the opposing political party at home.

Well... then it's a curious case that the virus exploded in Wuhan in Dec 2019 and everywhere else in the world in Feb 2020, isn't it?

misidentifying or confusing it for the flu or pneumonia, or even the measles outbreak.
possible mutation of the virus to a more virulent/deadly strain.
