China Lied About Coronavirus, Putting World in Jeopardy, U.S. Intelligence Agents Say

[Earl]

Well before the first confirmed COVID test in January in Seattle, tens of thousands of Chinese nationals were coming into the country, from Wuhan, while China was trying to do ‘damage control’.

No one was going to prevent this. The travel banned helped, but nothing and no one was going to stop this because the Chinese government lied.

Not even The Obama would have stopped it. It’s exactly that simple.

The Chinese travel ban did what it did, which lowered the sources of the people with the Chinese virus.

Of course you are right, if the Chinese had not lied (proven by several intelligence sources from several countries) the virus would not have spread as quickly.

The blame is rightly on the Chinese who never tell the truth.

Trump is a much greater threat to our Republic...than China will ever be.

In fact, Trumps ignorant supporters are a much greater threat to our Republic than China will ever be.

ignorance on display..buzz off Frank

It's important to remember that the Crimea was part of Russia, and was transferred to the Ukraine on the fiat of a USSR boss without consulting its inhabitants, who give every indication of being majority Russian.

yes of course. Khrushchev's gift, but that has little relevance now ( except Crimea is majority Russian)

“ Some six in 10 Americans approve of the job Donald Trump is doing to combat the coronavirus crisis, pushing the president’s approval rating – 49% - to the highest of his presidency, according to a poll released Tuesday by Gallup.

Trump’s gains come as his standing has improved among Democrats and independents amid the viral outbreak, which has killed more than 660 people even as the nation has adopted strict rules limiting public gatherings. Trump’s job approval numbers are up 6 points among Democrats and 8 points among independents, according to the survey.”

China Lied About Coronavirus, Putting World in Jeopardy, U.S. Intelligence Agents Say

It is depressing to see the trumpf-propagandists at their usual posturing and muckchucking when the world and its people are suffering, but par for the course, I suppose. Contemptible though.

[Iolo/Penderyn]

yes of course. Khrushchev's gift, but that has little relevance now ( except Crimea is majority Russian)

Every relevance, as with the ludicrous frontiers of the Middle East, drawn up by other colonialists.

[anatta]

The only true carrot we have in this is Putin would much rather be part of the western economy then tied to China's goodwill.

We could pull off a schism in Sino-Russian relations, but it would require a major rethink.
And the think tanks like the Deep State have a huge bias against Russia..On;y Trump can cut thru all that

Coronavirus is latest in China's history of covering negative info
As coronavirus continues to spread across the world, the Chinese government has been accused of withholding information about the outbreak that began on its soil. Here are some other examples of China trying to cover up negative information.


As coronavirus cases have jumped in recent days, China misled the world by purposely underreporting its numbers of patients and deaths, three U.S. intelligence officials say.


In a classified report sent to the White House, the officials said that China's public record of COVID-19 infections was deliberately deceptive and incomplete.

Bloomberg, which first reported the news, cited three U.S. intelligence officers who they said they alerted the White House last week to Beijing's misleading numbers. Two of the three sources called the numbers flat-out fake.


While there have been skeptics all along, China's decision to downplay its numbers could have deadly consequence for the rest of the world.

Deborah Birx, the State Department immunologist advising the White House on its response to COVID-19, said Tuesday that China's numbers influenced assumptions in other countries about the nature of the contagion.

"The medical community made -- interpreted the Chinese data as: This was serious, but smaller than anyone expected because I think probably we were missing a significant amount of data, now that what we see happened to Italy and see what happened to Spain."

CORONAVIRUS IS LATEST IN CHINA'S HISTORY OF TRYING TO COVER UP NEGATIVE INFO

Since the beginning of the pandemic, China has been accused of multiple coverups. It has shifted its timeline on what it knew and when it knew it and has gone after critics, doctors and whistleblowers trying to sound the alarm.

In recent weeks, China has launched a coordinated campaign to boost its global image. It has rebranded itself, tried to restart its economy and sold supplies to hard-hit countries struggling to contain the virus within their borders.

"The only thing better than playing themselves as a victim is showing that they can emerge as a resilient hero," Greg Barbaccia, an expert in counterintelligence, insider threat and corporate espionage, told Fox News.

Barbaccia, who spent five years on active duty as an intelligence sergeant in the U.S. Army, said China is taking advantage of the current economic landscape and using it to their advantage as other countries like Italy and Iran struggle

Not only has China clogged up its own airwaves with propaganda touting the country's success in taming COVID-19, it has also pledged millions of dollars to the World Health Organization and in return has received public

A U.N. report released Wednesday praised China for sharing the genetic sequence of COVID-19. What it didn't highlight was that Chinese officials didn't report the first case of coronavirus until forced to and that documents later revealed that China knew about the dangers of the virus two months before reporting it. Had China been forthright, COVID-19 could have been contained.

On Wednesday, there were more than 847,081 confirmed cases of coronavirus around the world. The U.S. surpassed 200,000 cases Wednesday. Globally, the number of those infecting will likely hit the million mark by Friday. In the United States there have been 4,417 deaths. The body count globally stands at 45,497.”

Indeed, since he has lost all self-control and self-disipline, his posts have no value.

His fastball is now a slow-pitch girl’s softball.

Tell that to the Kurds, for instance. Until boundaries reflect populations you'll always have trouble.

Okay, you are displaying ignorance...but I'm not going to run away from you.

I'll try to help you by informing you.

I am NOT a mental light weight, Anatta.

I suspect the thing that bothers you most about me...is that I tell you truths you do not want to hear. And because I am NOT a mental light weight, I do it so clearly that some manages to get through the density...and makes you uncomfortable.

Too bad that!
