    Default US epidemic has become a threat to the rest of the world

    A Chinese state-controlled newspaper has blamed the Trump administration’s mishandling of the COVID-19 pandemic to cause the spread of the virus to go “completely out of control.”

    Describing the disease as a “U.S. epidemic”, the paper warned that the administration’s failure poses a threat to the rest of the world. “Lies are dominating US society’s recognition of the epidemic,” the Global Times wrote.

    In a Friday, July 3, 2020, editorial titled, “Rampant US epidemic to hurt the world” China’s Global Times wrote:

    The US set another record for novel coronavirus cases on Thursday. Reuters reported that the country confirmed more than 55,000 new COVID-19 cases that day, which is “a new daily global record” for the pandemic.

    Earlier this week, US epidemiologist Dr. Anthony Fauci warned that the US may soon see as many as 100,000 new cases of COVID-19 a day if the current trajectory of the outbreak is not changed.

    Scott Gottlieb, a former commissioner for the US Food and Drug Administration, even suggested the true number of US daily infections is between 400,000 and 500,000, though there is not enough testing to find them all.

    The current epidemic in the US is completely out of control. However, the US federal government still insists that the rapid increase in infection figures is due to more testing. Data released by the US Labor Department on Thursday showed the country added 4.8 million jobs in June. The White House soon boasted about its economic achievements. But people doubt whether the US government is making utmost efforts to rein in the virus and save more American lives.

    Lies are dominating US society’s recognition of the epidemic. Political parties have put their interests in campaigning in the first place, which has distorted the society’s attention and allocation of resources. The US fight against the virus is paralyzed. There is no national strategy to alleviate the epidemic. Political calculations have stunted the battle against COVID-19.

    Case in point, the dumb twat that responded in post #2.

    I hate to agree with China on anything but in this case they are right. There is a reason why other countries are refusing entry to American citizens. I want to know where is the outrage from #COVID45's business buddies? This has got to cause a lot of problems, expense, and serious operational issues for U.S. corporations doing business overseas.

    Yes, we are to blame. 50% of all new cases are coming from just 2 countries, and we are one of them.

    Like most things that #COVID45 and his sycophantic cultists say, there's no credible evidence in the slightest for that.

    Trump and his lackeys are trying to sweep covid-19 under the carpet and make it go away, being the incompetent clowns that they are.

    Very true. Being brain-dead seems to be a requirement to be a Trumpanzee, eh?

    The Covidiot-in-Chief is still stuck back in 2016. His message of hate, divisiveness, us vs them, etc. played well to the yokels back then. He's trying a reboot of the same game but it's not working anymore. It's one thing to paint immigrants, Muslims, the Chinese, etc. as The Enemy. Most of us can't see people in those groups so it's safe to dislike them. But when he starts painting more than half of America as the enemy? We can see those people. They're our neighbors, our family, our friends, our community, our coworkers. We can see that he's a despicable, desperate demogogue running on a tank of hate that's on fumes.

    The real enemy is the virus. The virus that he minimizes. Only the truly blind cannot see how he's floundering.
