Only two strains thus far S and L.
with S being the type that was most prevalent in Wuhan and the older of the two.

How do we know the US has less than 500 cases of Covid-19, as tardy and as awful as the testing has been?

Two strains in China. The Irainian strain is clearly deadlier than L or S.

Or more likely the Iranians health system has failed in treatment. Just because the death rate is higher doesn’t mean it’s a new strain it just means that the death rate is higher. It is the same reason the DPRK is reportedly being draconian in it’s response. That being that they don’t have the ability to deal with a epidemic.

I'll put it on the main board:

I can tell you where he is getting it but he is twisting words and claims.
Replacing “Source” with “Strain” as if to insinuate a that all of it came from the US. Strain is a evolution of the virus L evolved from S.

New Chinese study indicates novel coronavirus did not originate in Huanan seafood market

A new study by Chinese researchers indicates the novel coronavirus may have begun human-to-human transmission in late November from a place other than the Huanan seafood market in Wuhan.
The study published on ChinaXiv, a Chinese open repository for scientific researchers, reveals the new coronavirus was introduced to the seafood market from another location, and then spread rapidly from market to market. The findings were the result of analyses of genome-wide data, sources of infection and the route of spread of 93 samples of the novel coronavirus collected from 12 countries across four continents.
The study believes that patient zero transmitted the virus to workers or sellers at the Huanan seafood market. The crowded market facilitated the further transmission of the virus to buyers, which caused a wider spread in early December 2019.
According to the researchers, the new coronavirus experienced two sudden population expansions, including one on January 6, 2020, which was related to the Chinese New Year's Day holiday.
An earlier expansion occurred on December 8, implying human-to-human transmission may have started in early December or late November, and then accelerated when it reached the Huanan seafood market.
On January 6, the National Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) issued a second-level emergency response, which the researchers said served as a warning against mass public activity and travel.
If the warnings had received wider public attention, the number of cases spreading nationally and globally in mid-to-late January would have been lower, said the researchers.
Patients from Australia, France, Japan and the US - countries with wider samples - have had at least two sources of infection, and the US in particular has reported five sources, the study said.
However, based upon limited samples in other countries, the source of most infections is deemed to be the same. In addition to their contact history with Wuhan, some may have been infected in South China's Guangdong Province and Singapore.

The Term is “Sources of Infection” meaning people who came in to the country and spread the Virus not strains or that it was American.
Then you have Peoples Daily.
Even Global times ran the CDC Reaction.
Basically the Source was a TV broadcast. See above.
And Spin from Global research a political organization that masquerades as a news group happily connecting the dots.
So Some TV broadcast made a baseless claim. Guess what It happens. Just this week MSNBC TV anchors took Seriously a tweet that claimed Mike Bloomberg could have given every American a million dollars for what he spent in his run ( he spent 500 million there are 327 or so Americans today thats a $1.52) . IT’s completely bogus. “Oh but he’s a virologist....” His claim was that The deaths in this years Flu season were in fact Corona. Which is baseless. It’s like saying that All those times you caught a cold was just an allergy.
Unless he can than back his claim it’s the kinda thing retractions, Prpaganda And Conspiracy theory are made from. There are 2 strains of Convid 19. The US didn’t start checking for it because the source was Wuhan. We know that because the cases didn’t appear until after AFTER the Wuhan epidemic.
