Yet another country flags cache of defective Chinese-manufactured medical equipment
Washington Examiner, Apr 7, 2020

For the countries suffering from the COVID-19 pandemic, for which the Chinese Communist Party is largely responsible, “Made in China” should be considered a warning if not an outright threat.

The government of Austria, which has 12,547 total confirmed coronavirus cases and 243 deaths, reported that 500,000 Chinese-produced protective masks destined for South Tyrol are “unusable,” according to Die Presse.

This is merely the latest in a long string of countries that say they have received defective Chinese-manufactured medical gear.

Officials for the Czech Republic, which has 4,828 total confirmed cases and 80 deaths, reported that the 300,000 Chinese-made quick tests purchased by the Czech government worked only if the person being tested had been infected by the coronavirus for a minimum of five days. Czech health officials also said that approximately 100,000 of the kits were defective.

Slovak Prime Minister Igor Matovic, whose country has 581 total confirmed cases and two deaths, said that the more than 1 million tests his country purchased from Chinese-connected distributors were also defective.

“We have a ton and no use for them,” he said of the $16 million worth of reportedly worthless kits. He added that they should “just be thrown straight into the Danube.”

It might be a shorter list if it were of countries who had received good quality tests and etc. from China.
