US report claims China hid virus’ severity to hoard supplies

Chinese leaders “intentionally concealed the severity” of the pandemic from the world in early January, according to a four-page Department of Homeland Security intelligence report dated May 1 and obtained by The Associated Press.

Not classified but marked “for official use only,” the DHS analysis states that, while downplaying the severity of the coronavirus, China increased imports and decreased exports of medical supplies. Chinese officials muffled doctors who warned about the virus early on and repeatedly downplayed the threat of the outbreak.

“Intelligence has just reported to me that I was correct, and that they did NOT bring up the CoronaVirus subject matter until late into January, just prior to my banning China from the US,” Mr Trump wrote without citing specifics. “Also, they only spoke of the Virus in a very non-threatening, or matter of fact, manner.”

“These are not the first times that we’ve had a world exposed to viruses as a result of failures in a Chinese lab,” Mr Pompeo said. “And so, while the intelligence community continues to do its work, they should continue to do that, and verify so that we are certain, I can tell you that there is a significant amount of evidence that this came from that laboratory in Wuhan.”

The worlds response to China is going to be awesome.

And now the Chinese have realised it's no worse than a severe Flu so no longer Testing & recording
