China deliberately suppressed or destroyed evidence of the coronavirus outbreak in an “assault on international transparency’’ that cost tens of thousands of lives, according to a dossier prepared by concerned Western governments on the COVID-19 contagion. The 15-page research document, obtained by The Saturday Telegraph, lays the foundation for the case of negligence being mounted against China. |

China also imposed internal travel bans while condemning the rest of the world for wanting to do the same. "Millions of people leave Wuhan after the outbreak and before Beijing locks down the city on January 23," reads the dossier. "Thousands fly overseas. Throughout February, Beijing presses the US, Italy, India, Australia, Southeast Asian neighbours and others not to protect themselves via travel restrictions, even as the PRC imposes severe restrictions at home." The dossier also notes that China successfully pressured the EU to strike language about PRC disinformation, and has threatened Australia for continuing to investigate. "As Australia calls for an independent inquiry into the pandemic, PRC threatens to cut off trade with Australia. PRC has likewise responded furiously to US calls for transparency." |

The first item should have been posted in the political section not "Latest news". If you had been on this forum for sometime, you would have found that we were very critical of China's initial handling of the outbreak (trying to suppress news), critical of how slow WHO was, and critical of how late our governments were in responding and how people like Trump praised China's handling of the early stages. At this stage, it is clear that the USA is facing more problems than the constantly over-optimistic Trump has been willing to admit, so it seems that the tactic is to defect the blame now it is becoming clearer that all the initial estimates from Trump were clearly rose-tinted and that the death toll will blast far, far past the 60 000 mark. [The radio news had an item about Trump now talking of 100,000 deaths - given his history of vastly underestimating the whole pandemic, it is, I am sorry to say, likely to be much higher.] |

Carbon, Behave! You have a valid point, but could you put it more politely? Please! Besides, not all Americans voted for the Goo. Some even see the value of things like universal healthcare and the WHO. Both sides have some merit. The WHO is in China's pocket - he who pays the piper calls the tune - but not paying it at all will just make things worse next time. If you want it beholden to you, pay it MORE than China does - and pay up too, promisory notes don't count. China did cover it up. But this was not an attack on America. It was just the intrinsic incompetence of the communist, face-saving government. Anyone who spoke out at the start was thrown in prison - I would not be surprised if some were still in there - and government officials who tried to deal with it would have lost their jobs. That is why so many Chinese died too. So, no one is right or wrong here, just be polite, PLEASE! |

It was not political. The article is about 5 nations investigating the wuhan virus origins. |
