I am still sure if the real number comes out China will still top!

Confirmed cases, considering how great the shortage of testing is there you could probably double that number.

Congratulation, Mr. Trump, u did a gread job

bkbaguley Again... assuming you believe the figures that came out of China. Over 1 bill in pop. How do they know how many cases & how many died? Even if they have a good idea will they tell the rest of the world? How many died of pneumonia but not tested so not attributed to covid-19?

What bullshit. The Chinese toll of their bat virus would be in the millions by now. They are lying. Only Labor stooges would believe their masters in Beijing.

Trump states: We will never be beaten.. (Vietnam not included..viruses only) But may have to order more masks and test kits from China..🇱🇷👎🇨🇳☝️

This is what happened when they do not wear a mask

US population 329million China population 1.2 billion Which country has the better health system

Just for context, for what it is worth and because the article doesn’t mention it: China’s population is about 5 times that of USA which is about 5 times that of Italy. 1.4 Billion, 330 Million, 60 Million

And they believe Trump!

Keep merylstreep safe

Wuhan virus has at least half the death rate percentage of the Influenza Virus, why the shutdown?

Yes of course. China probably has 1000s more cases and is lying about it.

But trump said they have it under control 😳

America always first🙂

Golly whoever could have seen that coming.....? 🙄 The moment the media outed Missy Higgins’ dad as back from the US with Covid-19, I knew 300% the US was the problem. Unless they oust their fatf*** POTUS and his idiot minions, they’re going to become a mass grave 😔

They do like to be the best at stuff.

nakarithorpe It will become known as the Washington Virus.

Well Trump always wanted to be at the top......COVIDー19 coronavirusaustralia coronavirusaus Coronavirusus coronavirusUSA coronavirus coronavirusnz

Edging closer and closer to greatness everyday MAGA

MrTrump just couldn't be satisfied being the first, could he? 🤣

'We are at war with a virus - and not winning it,' United Nations saysThe head of the UN says 'we are at war with a virus - and not winning it' despite dramatic measures by countries to seal borders, shutter businesses and enforce home isolation for well over a quarter of the world's population. Virus? This thing, whatever it is, is designed to kill. In history of planet earth never ever a virus existed that was so infectious. It's a weapon, not a virus.

Spain overtakes China virus toll after more 700 deaths in 24 hoursSpain has seen its largest jump in coronavirus deaths over a 24-hour period. 😢 That does mean that Europe, as a geographic area, has more than double the deaths in China ( assuming China’s figures can be believe) Poor Spain but both Italy,Greece and Spain have had huge economic problems over the past decade perhaps their health systems suffered from cut backs and underfunding like Australia? Let’s hope we don’t suffer too. Like the cut backs and closures of Centrelink branches. We are in for it!

Second developer flew 82 tonnes of medical supplies to ChinaA second Chinese property company based in Sydney flew more than 80 tonnes of medical supplies on a corporate jet to Wuhan in late February, at the time coronavirus was devastating the regional city. Kate_McClymont Unbelievably selfish whoever done it obviously has no regard for any Australians Kate_McClymont Put yourself in their situation. If you were in China and Australia had a serious medical crisis that you could alleviate by buying and sending medical supplies from China, would you do it? Why is this even a story?
