One day after announcing the expulsion of three Wall Street Journal reporters from China, the Chinese foreign ministry is standing by its decision, saying people who 'maliciously smear China must pay their price.'

If you're just joining us, here's what you need to know about the coronavirus today

But the fall appears to be partly due to another change in how China counts a"confirmed case." All official coronavirus cases from today must now be formally diagnosed before they are added to the totals. The total number of confirmed cases in mainland China is now 74,576, bringing the global total to 75,674.The fall comes as the Chinese government said it would no longer count"clinically confirmed" cases among the official total infections. It was a reversal from a decision made a week ago to include patients who had tested negative for the virus but showed symptoms.The number of people killed by the virus continues to rise, with 114 more deaths announced in mainland China today.

Pity China's smeared the world with its greedy lust for money, let alone the virus. We're all paying the price for that.

ooooh can i start... F$%^ China and its oppressive regime. quit using people as slaves. quit publicly executing people for talking out against their government.

Shhhh, don't tell anyone there is a plague in China.

I am so glad we have freedom of speech in my country. I cannot imagine having to curtail my thoughts in order to hold my tongue.

Trump is like China smear our name and he'll smear you this is why we must vote him out of office!

They can't handle the truth just like cnn

One of many funeral homes: 127 bodies to cremate in a day. 60% came from homes, not hospital. They have 110 workers and need 50 more to keep up. Pneumonia only on 8 of 127 death certificates. Not WSJ, but no truth is a smear.

CHINA is China,forever He proved himself,there is no freedom there!

MauriceMartin01 visiblement ils dérangeaient !

Smear is now defined as 'tell the truth.'

Sounds familiar 😥

Existe la censura nivel Dios y la inigualable y suprema nivel China

Trump's idea

Expulsion is better than imprisonment. Just bring them home.

Wow kind of funny how they don't like it

If western still hopes economic blooming can change CCP and give Chinese more freedom and stop persecuting religions, and eventually Integrate into global society, it's the time to wake up. CCP will never change its constitution and ambition to the world.

Who cares? They never invest in black businesses anyway!

Oh snap! It's on! To be fair, I usually expel the Opinion section before reading the Journal

Are they being quarantined? That’s all I wanna know.

We need to help China people. They are doing their best to control this virus, that apparently only kills around 2% of those infected.

They are very closed and oppressive.

As expected of a country who brainwashed the world by printing maps with disputed territories as it's own

The United States has a flu, and we call it the American Sick Man!

China did the right thing. Those potty mouth whippersnappers needed to be reminded of decent manners. China WSJ pottymouth

Finally some real news from CNN

What if our country's news media insults your country? What will your country do?

All anti-China monkeys should get the hell out of China. American propaganda is disgusting. America is losing in economy, technology and geopolitical influence.

I support China's behavior, there are some abominable media that should let them go out!

The CCP is a paper dragon that will fold under the pressure of a free press

'...maliciously smear China' translation: '...tell the truth about China'

WSJ is 'maliciously smearing' China by reporting the truth? I guess China's own citizens who circulate phone videos of what's really happening are 'maliciously smearing China'. See how terrified this infected Chinese person is for telling the truth:

Screw China , all they do is produce and manufacture crappy stuff and eat anything that move

We have the expulsion of journalists from the WH all the time, and there are no more press briefings. Do a story on that.

China sooo Thin Skinned

Lucky they weren’t in Saudi Arabia.

Hmm they sound like TheDemocrats

they seem to be taking their lead from our AG

This is definitely gonna get a high five from trump. Not a big fan of the truth getting out

Very Trump of them...

Here you go America vote for Bernie 😳🙄‼️

CNN is Pro-China
