Breaking: China Concealed Extent of Virus Outbreak, U.S. Intelligence Says

[Daghalodi]

I think China is hiding the real numbers. But this thread has become mud slinging , garbage throwing and bashing eachother.

PDF is going down

Yeah I've seen all those conspiracy theories. Some plausibility but there is no concrete proof.

No explanation why this was withdrawn:

Uncanny similarity of unique inserts in the 2019-nCoV spike protein to HIV-1 gp120 and Gag

Remember there are 5 strains of COVID-19, they only need one strain to be not genetically altered to test that one strain and make the false claim that COVID-19 is not genetically altered.

What the lying West says is null and void. What East Asians and Italians say is important. This study was undertaken by a host of Indians, then withdrawn with no explanation in what was wrong.

Further proof there is a covering going on now:

The Trump administration’s decision to forgo a World Health Organization test and create its own had fateful consequences, experts say.

There was deliberate effort to not test in the US, to make the cases seem to have come for foreign sources. This lack of testing in the first few weeks was part of the cover up.

Why the United States declined to use the WHO test, even temporarily as a bridge until the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention could produce its own test, remains a perplexing question and the key to the Trump administration’s failure to provide enough tests to identify the coronavirus infections before they could be passed on, according to POLITICO interviews with dozens of viral-disease experts, former officials and some officials within the administration’s health agencies.

Americans will be wearing China-made masks to protect themselves. How ironic

I will never trust anything from the US intelligence community or US corporate media. Never trust criminals.

I have some very critical Intelligence as well - there is new species on this planet called the MAN-BEAR-PIG. This species is half man, half Bear and half Pig. Yes it is true people. It is the single biggest threat to the human species.

The Pentagon already announced not to release any more numbers in regards to the number of infected cases. So who is really the one doing the concealing?

They weren't even testing earlier. Now it's us concealing the numbers?

China has concealed the extent of the coronavirus outbreak in its country, under-reporting both total cases and deaths it’s suffered from the disease, the U.S. intelligence community concluded in a classified report to the White House, according to three U.S. officials.

The officials asked not to be identified because the report is secret and declined to detail its contents. But the thrust, they said, is that China’s public reporting on cases and deaths is intentionally incomplete. Two of the officials said the report concludes that China’s numbers are fake.


The report was received by the White House last week, one of the officials said.

The outbreak began in China’s Hubei province in late 2019, but the country has publicly reported only about 82,000 cases and 3,300 deaths, according to data compiled by Johns Hopkins University. That compares to more than 189,000 cases and more than 4,000 deaths in the U.S., which has the largest publicly reported outbreak in the world.


Communications staff at the White House and Chinese embassy in Washington didn’t immediately respond to requests for comment.

While China eventually imposed a strict lockdown beyond those of less autocratic nations, there has been considerable skepticism of China’s reported numbers, both outside and within the country. The Chinese government has repeatedly revised its methodology for counting cases, for weeks excluding people without symptoms entirely, and only on Tuesday added more than 1,500 asymptomatic cases to its total.

Stacks of thousands of urns outside funeral homes in Hubei province have driven public doubt in Beijing’s reporting.

Deborah Birx, the State Department immunologist advising the White House on its response to the outbreak, said Tuesday that China’s public reporting influenced assumptions elsewhere in the world about the nature of the virus.

“The medical community made -- interpreted the Chinese data as: This was serious, but smaller than anyone expected,” she said at a news conference on Tuesday. “Because I think probably we were missing a significant amount of the data, now that what we see happened to Italy and see what happened to Spain.”

China is not the only country with suspect public reporting. Western officials have pointed to Iran, Russia, Indonesia and especially North Korea, which has not reported a single case of the disease, as probable under-counts. Others including Saudi Arabia and Egypt may also be playing down their numbers.

U.S. Secretary of State Michael Pompeo has publicly urged China and other nations to be transparent about their outbreaks. He has repeatedly accused China of covering up the extent of the problem and being slow to share information, especially in the weeks after the virus first emerged, and blocking offers of help from American experts.

“This data set matters,” he said at a news conference in Washington on Tuesday. The development of medical therapies and public-health measures to combat the virus “so that we can save lives depends on the ability to have confidence and information about what has actually transpired,” he said.

“I would urge every nation: Do your best to collect the data. Do your best to share that information,” he said. “We’re doing that.”

US intelligence also claimed that Iraq had WMD that could destroy Europe in 30 mins.

THis is one such famous instance. This was merely five days before they put Wuhan under lockdown.

Wow, using a Jan article try prove a point? You didn't know this virus has a 14days or longer incubation period? U think Chinese is God and can predict everything?

How selective u are. Why didnt u even bother to post this news?

China confirmed that the deadly Wuhan virus sweeping the country can spread from human to human, increasing the risk of an epidemic

 

[Menthol]

It's all over the news in China about the asymptomatic people.

And people in China is still wearing mask and practicing social distancing.

Ah, another propaganda.

 

[Nan Yang]

US intelligence is just confirming what is already widely known. This is just putting a stamp on it.

Calling it US 'INTELLIGENCE' insults our intelligent.

Pompeo: 'I was the CIA director. We lied, we cheated, we stole'

 

[Asian.Century]

If only Pakistanis also confirm this, that China did not report correct numbers, whole world will believe. I know China's best friend is Pakistan.

Pakistan should tell the world that whether concealed and covered up death and coronavirus cases or not.
