Chinese Regime's Responsibility for Coronavirus Pandemic
Newsmax ^ | 18 March 2020 | Fred Fleitz

Watching CNN and MSNBC these days is painful with their unending commentaries blaming President Trump for the spread of coronavirus in the United States. I believe history will show that all Western countries made mistakes in the way they initially reacted to this pandemic.

It is clear there were systemic problems in all Western health systems to deal with this kind of health threat. Such problems in the United States at the federal, state and local levels predate President Trump — his administration did not cause them.

At the same time, the mainstream media and Democratic politicians do not want to discuss the cause of this global pandemic: China's communist regime.

Mistakes? GTFO. Look, stuff happens. If ever single event were regarded as an existential threat, we’d all be cowering under our beds, from now until we die.

A new virus, one that the Chinese have responsibility for, either through odd dietary habits, or an accident in their lab. But, who could have known how infectious this thing would be? You have to be pragmatic, and evaluate things as information becomes available. I think the Trump administration has done a good job, not flawless, but then, who is flawless?

This Chinese flag should be flying during the next Olympic Games, whenever they may be.

By the way China reacted: putting 11 million people under quarantine when there were < 1000 sick in the entire country -- not dead, just ill.

There's a lot of technical reasons this looks like a bioweapon.

“There’s a lot of technical reasons this looks like a bioweapon.”

I agree, but we’ll never know the truth. The Chinese don’t want to admit guilt. And we are so linked to them, that there is no way America will call them out.

It will be an agreement between the 2 nations to blame the bats.

In early February people posted videos of the Chinese spraying disinfectant in the streets. At the time, many observers said it was just for show and propaganda to convince the Chinese people that the government was doing something. However, a more credible explanation is that the Chinese government knew at that time that the virus is spread by surviving on surfaces. If so, it does not appear that they shared this information with other governments around the world.

Fabulous video Why new diseases keep appearing in China

Short answer - wet markets supplied by wildlife farms, created initially to feed China after the collapse of Chinese agriculture under communism, now kept going to support the "virility" market driven by the Chinese "elite."

During today’s press conference, the President was asked about Sen. Tom Cotton’s remarks that “China would pay”, or something like that.
The President did not disavow the remarks. Or rule out punishing China.

And he also kept stating the “We know where this came from”.

Personally, I say put China back into Agrarian mode and
consider them simply a consumer nation. No more manufacturing or exposure to technology for these dinks.

My liberal twin brother said, “Trump’s response was weak.” I replied, “Really? How so?” He had no answer, so I said, “Go check with Rachel Madcow. She probably can’t explain the DNC talking point either.”

Well, toilet paper is the only one that can claim to be in great demand, so that's not the answer.

The Chinese notified the W.H.O. about the coronavirus on Dec. 31.

Between January 6 – 8, the CDC sprung into action, launching management system.

And Trump got called racist for wanting to limit travel at that time.
