From what I read, for weeks China knew that its citizens from the Wuhan area were infected. They covered it up and even jailed doctors who were blowing the whistle. Then they let citizens from this region fly all over the world. And they get upset when we call it the China Virus?

Originally posted by rogue06 View PostEssentially nearly the entire world is (correctly) blaming China, not just Trump.
The indisputable fact is that for the first six weeks they suppressed and punished those who were telling the truth about what was happening. Dr. Li Wenliang, the Chinese whistleblower[1] who tried to issue the first warning about the coronavirus, was arrested and placed under house arrest and then died -- supposedly of the disease. The Chinese government also claims his colleague Mei Zhongming has also died, again supposedly of it as well.
Further, they refused outside assistance and wouldn't share the virus so it could be studied.
This pandemic is dramatically worse due to the Chinese government's behavior. Those in China who have noted this have vanished from sight, just like the now deceased whistleblower and his colleague. Anyone who mentions any of this outside the country gets branded as being a xenophobe and racist by the Chicoms and their stooges here. The Chinese government was and still is far concerned about their image than fighting this deadly disease.
1. An actual whistleblower, not someone spreading gossip he heard second or third hand.

I wonder if the Chicoms will be announcing that he died of the coronavirus despite "heroic efforts" to save him just like some other critics.
But what's the most important thing to keep in mind is don't you dare refer to it as the Wuhan coronavirus or the Chinese corona virus because after all
even though similar outbreaks have almost always been named after where the outbreak was first reported
Originally posted by rogue06 View PostSee https://www.realclearpolitics.com/vi..._of_times.html for a video of them calling it that dozens of times but when Trump did the same then overnight it was declared racist and xenophobic by the same people who were using it.
Moreover...
They forgot the Spanish Flu and the Hendra virus (named after a suburb of Brisbane, Australia).

That's why tariffs and boycotts don't work against them. They don't care if their people suffer just as long as they stay in charge.

Originally posted by Cow Poke View PostI hope, AT THE VERY LEAST, we move all prescription drug manufacturing out of China back to the US. In fact, that's probably something the US can decree due to national security.

Originally posted by seer View PostIt is hard to see what the motive would be - to have the whole world hate them?
Original story - virus was purely a natural accident, started at a Wuhan market that sells exotic animals.
Conspiracy theory #1 (proposed by Chinese officials) - virus was a bio-weapon unleashed by the US.
Conspiracy theory #2 - virus was a bio-weapon accidentally leaked out of a Wuhan lab.
Which option makes it the most likely they would go to such great lengths to cover up? I'd go with either of the two last options.
