    1. valerie – If cats are infected, they only pass it to other cats, not to people. It has been known for years that cats have their types of corinavirus that DO NOT infect humans.

    1. Many peoples praised New Zealand for its low fatality [only 1 death and 1200 infected ] .How New Zealand got the info while Trump accused China hiding info .How .

    2. 龙卧 New Zealand gets way less immigrants and has way less population compared to USA. New Zealand didn’t get an info. They simply shut down flights from China. Trump tried to do the same thing and the US media/Dems called him racist.

    3. u people are anyways too lazy to work and live off unemployment benefits…y blame trump…half of the economy is run by migrants u people cant even tolerate that just talk n talk

    4. @Hugh Hammell are you that naive? People like trump hate working class people. He only cares about donors $$$

  1. The Trump administration is obviously aware that an early return to work without testing will result in a second wave of covid 19 . he simply doesn’t care.

    1. USSpotato I’ll have to see it to believe it. He wants the economy to open so he won’t have to pay that money out. And he’ll stretch it out as long as he can. How hard is it to send out a check?

    2. Y中国说谎的人死亡
      Zhōngguó shuōhuǎng de rén sǐwáng these people only care about them self’s the virus started in China. Then they down play it and lie say it does not pass human to human. Turn out the World Health Organization believed that. Now we have a pandemic plague spreading the world killing over a 100,000 people. China lied People died. Now they are hiring people over 10,000 to be Internet trolls to push there propaganda according to reports. They censor there own citizens. So they can make up any number they want as far as death toll. Should be taken as an act of war. British prime minister almost died. I hate them so much now!!!

  2. ” We can’t trust anything the Chinese government says ” … , can we trust anything the American government says ?

  3. For this type of pandemic, it is difficult to get accurate numbers. Even in USA now, people died at home would not be tested if the death is caused by covid_19.

    1. @M Hopkins No, since he or she died, there is no point in wasting the time and valuable COVID-19 test kit. And without the test, the death could not labelled as COVID-19.

    2. @Tyler Stefan Yes. People already forgot that some Americans were dismissing this new virus because by January the common flu already killed tens of thousands Americans BEFORE the new coronavirus were identified. Since the flue also displays very similar respiratory symptoms to COVID-19, a substantial portion of those flu deaths could actually be COVID-19 deaths.

  4. If you don’t trust data from China shouldn’t you be more serious and prepare more for the virus 🤔 maybe my logic is wrong

    1. @高礼福 The whole of the western world is suffering so much all due to their arrogant and incompetency, the news of the virus and the shutdown of Wuhan is well known, every info of the virus and treatment given has been uploaded into WHO database where every nation & scientist could access to.

      Unlike the Asian nations, all of them in the west did not take steps to prevent the outbreak in their nation at all, for example temperature taking for incoming visitors, suspected cases to go through 14 days quarantine, social distancing , wearing of face masks, frequent washing of hands, banning of mass gatherings etc.

      And their healthcare are also not prepared & well equipped to handle an outbreak, which is something we don’t see in most Asian nation like S Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Singapore etc.
      Firstly because Asian nation took steps to prevent a major outbreak, which mean their healthcare system did not suffer from overloading of patients. But some of the richer one already started to prepare for an outbreak just in case.

    2. @M F In history, the CCP allowed Taiwan and Hongkong to exercise autonomy for a smooth transition from being ruled by Japanese colonists to Chinese government. And the process lasts till now. The sovereignty of Taiwan has been determined the moment Chinese government recovered Taiwan in 1945. You can refer to Japanese surrender document, or Potsdam Declaration.

    3. @M F Many political representations still address Taiwan a part of China because there are several legal documents clearly written so. Some media, out of either political reasons or profits,(or just ignorance) claims otherwise and tries to undermine China through propaganda.

    4. @M F No one in China claims Mongolia as a part of China is not because it became an independent country 100years ago. It’s because there is no event or document that suggests Mongolia is a part of China.Time doesn’t claims sovereignty, people do. And if we want to know the sovereignty, we usually look more in history, the events and legal documents or declarations instead of media.

  5. Can’t trust China’s numbers? Can we trust the numbers here in the US??? There are countless instances of over 100/day in NYC with at home deaths not counted in the numbers for NYC…so who are we to speak of other countries in such a condescending form. The US so far has the worst performance in fighting this virus in the world so we should be very humble in our criticism of other countries.

    1. @Jean Pau Prince/Brooklyn Dorisca lmfao. Right. Not from where im standing. The rest of the world embarrased them selves with selfish protectionism. Usa is the biggest contributer to most things. Nato. Un. W.H.O. but when the usa tries for fairness all of a sudden were bad guys. Lmfao smfh

  6. As canadian, it always makes me laught when US medias are accusing China of liying… Hahahaha…. Really!

    1. And since as a canadian your so good at pointing the finger. Please tell us what lies exactly your talking about from the usa. Please im listening.

  7. Can’t trust any number that comes from china ! LOL Where did this stereotype stupidly comes from?
    So All data in the US government is automatically correct ?

    1. Never trust a commie. Their lies are so blatantly obvious that they’d spit in your face and tell you it’s raining.

      Covid19 is Chinese.

    2. @ElPocho DelMundo You are not a Latino why you disguise as one ? A liar will always accuse the innocent, Disgusting Taiwan bots !

  8. No matter what the media said, remember China successfully make this virus under control while the US is out of control now. Facts speaks louder. Whose data is more like fake? It’s obvious!
    Let me ask you this , if you are nobody just a normal citizen in the US, can you get tested for covid19 for free a month ago?

    1. The REAL MEDIA have reported on this correctly .
      It’s been FOX , OAN , NEWSMAX ET AL …that poo poo’d the whole thing

  9. The numbers in China and, in Asia for that matter, is low because THE POPULATION IS SUPER VIGILANT!! EVERY BODY FXXKING WEARS A Mask and heed to the measures. And the governments took the virus super seriously from the get go!!!!

    1. Situation in China and the rest of Asia is not the same. South Korea is much different in its approach to mitigate the virus than China and Korean statistical reports are far more trustworthy.

    2. Asians have been wearing masks from the very beginning. Americans are just playing with their lives and our government and healthcare system is a joke!

    1. @low key In China gov tracked and calculated mild symptons separately but they aren’t counted as infected, because they have zero symptoms at all, no cough, no fever or anything.

    2. @Paul Li Aside from inclusion vs exclusion in counts, how are the mild-to-no symptom infectees treated? Are they allowed to mingle amongst the general population, or quarantined? Are their contacts tracked like the contacts of those with greater symptoms? Though accurate counts are valuable, it’s far more important how those who are infected, with or without symptoms, are kept separate from those who are not.

  10. The fact of the matter is, there are 80% of coronavirus cases in Australia come from the USA. I believe most cases in Europe also come from the USA. As soon as China locks down the city of Wuhan and the province of Hubei at the end of January. Donald Trump ordered all flights from China to the US stop and all the passengers go into 14 days isolation in remote camps. The rest of the western world follows immediately after that. With more the 400000 cases in the US in just a few short weeks. I am questioning how long is the Coronavirus already exists in the USA? May be well before China. The USA did not the test kit to test the patient or the affordable test to all patients. The chief of the CDC admitted to the Senate Committees that the 14000 or more so-call Influreza death in 2019 & early 2020 could be from CoronaVirus. Because those death has never been tested. Finally, I would believe the Chinese figures more than what comes out of Trump’s mouth. Just take the Hypochoroquin, what have you got to lose?

    1. Most cases in US come from Italy and Spain. The US let people get in from Europe through the UK right before the UK had their outbreak. The reason that the US is infecting people is that they will let people fly to other countries that they wouldn’t let back in for being sick.

    2. Interesting. Maybe the source is not from China after all. It just so happens that China was the first country to do Covid-19 testing. Which make it seems that they were the source.

  11. Why? If all the numbers are wrong in China how could they spare doctors to Huhan? Their hospitals would be flooded by patients nationwide!!! As far as I know their medical care for this is free

    1. It’s true that our treatment is really free. And the people who stay in the isolation zone will have people from the community bring food and supplies every day.

    2. Chinese did lock down Wuhan much earlier that any other government in the world started to lock down… That saved China, and should have had saved other places as well, but west was more interested in political and ideological games. for his people are paying now. South Korea, Taiwan, Singapore didn’t do this circus… and results there are totally different.

    1. Most Americans don’t trust the numbers from America either. It is well circulated in American Media that the numbers are low because red States aren’t testing, and most people are turned away from tests because they don’t have every symptoms.

    2. @BowlofIndoMee then lets talk about deaths in communism Stalin alone killed 40 million and Mao Zedong killed 60 million of its own people.plus.there are other wars such as korean war ,Vietnam war, Afghan invasion, insurgency communist rebellion from all over the world that added to deaths from communism ideology..

    3. Van Tom Let’s talk about capitalism killing 1 billion people in the last 100 years with poverty and wars for profit

    4. @Random Guy Nahhh you just make it up its never in History so you love communism so much why you comment here in Youtube the product of democracy and capitalism PATHETIC HYPOCRITE go live in China or North korea

  12. When did America ever trust China?
    If u have never trusted china to begin with why now keep blaming china?
    What a interesting logic. .

    1. @SuperFivealive Fun fact: yuor bum would be in jail if you said half the thing about ping in chiwan like you’ve with trump in US

    1. Anti China is political correctness here. If they don’t anti China, they lose their confidence and ideology. LOL. What a less civilized nation.

  13. When the epidemic starts. Western media say China was exaggerating its number. When the epidemic starts in the West, Western media say China was underrated its number. It seemed people only believe the thing they want to believe.
