Accusing eyes turn on China as America plunges into pandemic hell week

China's role in spreading the coronavirus is drawing increasing scrutiny as America slides into what may prove the worst phase of the pandemic.

A classified intelligence report given to the White House last week showed that China concealed the extent of the outbreak, according to Bloomberg. Now, the United States has overtaken China as the epicenter of the global contagion, with 206,200 confirmed cases and 4,633 deaths.

China has confirmed some 82,300 cases and 3,316 deaths, according to a case tally maintained by Johns Hopkins University.

“We could have been better off if China had been more forthcoming,” Vice President Mike Pence told CNN Wednesday. “What appears evident now is that long before the world learned in December that China was dealing with this, and maybe as much as a month earlier than that, that the outbreak was real in China.”

Accusing eyes turn on China as America plunges into pandemic hell week

This is cut/pasted from another thread a few minutes ago of my thinking of the Chicom involvment.

(1) There is a lot of anecdotal stuff out there that this was an engineered bio-weapon, some plausible, some tinfoil.
(2) No 100% irrefuable proof yet though of (1)
(3) The Chicoms through prior actions have established of pattern of where they can't be trusted, or ever should be.
(4) I think there is a near zero chance that they did it on purpose.  No reason to unleash this on their own, citizens, the entire world, and not expect retribution from the rest of the world.  Not even the arrogant Chicom leaders would want to risk a world tribunal that would in a sense would be a trial mass murder.  Wild guess is that the probability of the likelyhood of this being an intentional bio-weapon is 10% at best
(5) OTOH, I'd also venture that there is a 40-50% chance that this is a bio-weapon that accidentaly breached containment.  Coincidence that ground zero was near their bio-research center in Wuhan?  Hmmmmmmm
(6) Lastly, and also at 40-50% chance is that this an Animal-Human transmission.  There is widespread acceptance that the Chinese also intitiated the SARS epidemic via their taste for exotic cuisine.  This shit has got to stop.  It is just a matter of time that a disease with the communicability of COVID-19, and the lethality of Ebola is realized.

With that.  History has shown that when there is heinous wrongdoing, the guilty parties tend to bury the evidence before hand.  That time laspse may have  lot of that might be whats behind the cloak and dagger crap the Chicoms are pulling on this event.
