U.S. intelligence found that China misled the world about how bad the corona virus outbreak was while also stockpiling facemasks and other medical supplies. It comes after an earlier intelligence report that says China has never revealed their real numbers of infections and deaths. Tensions between the U.S. and China escalating. U.S. intelligence officials now accusing China of deception saying they hid the growing nature of the corona virus crisis.
A report from the Department of Homeland Security obtained by ABC News says quote The Chinese government intentionally concealed the severity of COVID 19 in early January while its stockpiled medical supplies. The report claims they increased imports and decreased exports choking off supplies to nations in dire need. Homeland Security Analysis shows China sent 48 percent fewer gloves face masks down seventy one percent and exported 45 percent fewer ventilators. While the report says this started in early January on the 14th The WHO released a tweet saying China saw no evidence of human to human transmission.
U.S. intelligence officials say the Chinese government attempted to hide its actions by denying export restrictions and delaying its trade data. Just last week President Trump attacked China for not doing more when the outbreak began.
We are not happy with China. We are not happy with that whole situation because we believe it could have been stopped at the source or it could have been stopped quickly and it wouldn’t have spread all over the world.
Chinese officials are pushing back against allegations that they were slow to respond or covered up details about the outbreak. A spokesperson says America should stop shifting the blame and instead focus on ways to contain the virus in the US.
