The outbreak is totally out of control and the Chinese citizens are very angry. The Chinese president has been not in public view or in the national media for weeks. Had it been a democratic country he would have been forced to go. American assistance is on the way.

The Chinese may be the fastest workers in the world but this virus episode has exposed China as “THIRD WORLD” when it comes to Pure Science. China has millions of doctors but seems to be lacking in Scientists to research and find a vaccine to stop this killer virus.

Your criminal dictatorial regime in Beijing has veiled the virus for 4 weeks for political reasons so that countermeasures are taken too late, causing hundreds to die and the virus to spread to other countries.
