Having brought us the global breakout of a killer coronavirus, China's Communist Party dictatorship is now fostering the insinuation that this virus originated not in China, but in America.
On Feb. 27, China's state-run China Global Television Network broadcast a segment in which one of China's most prominent epidemiologists, Dr. Zhong Nanshan, speaking about COVID-19, opined that "The infection was first spotted in China, but the virus may not have originated in China." This was not some casual, private remark.
"The Military World Games were held in Wuhan in in October. 'Perhaps the US delegates brought the coronavirus to Wuhan, and some mutation occurred to the virus, making it more deadly and contagious, and causing a widespread outbreak this year,' a user posted on China's Twitter-like Sina Weibo." When the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention refuted the gist of the Japanese story, the Global Times effectively doubled down.
On Feb. 28, Yang wrote a letter to Vice President Mike Pence - who is now heading the U.S. task force on this virus - warning about Zhong's officially showcased innuendo, and the blame-America rumors circulating in China.
Citing the rumors in China that are now blaming the U.S. for the virus, Yang warns that it is vitally important to cut through China's obfuscations and track down the precise origin of this virus.
While China accounts for most of those numbers, this disease appears to be highly contagious, and the tally outside China has begun to skyrocket.
"Now that Zhong is second guessing the widely believed origin of the virus, it is time for the U.S. and the international community to forcefully pursue this question... Press China to be transparent in all respects, and to welcome and facilitate international investigations on the question of whether, and how, the coronavirus was originated from China." These are hugely important recommendations.
