Has there been any reverse modeling of the coronavirus spread in China? I would think that would get an idea if China was telling the truth on numbers and possibly guess a ballpark when it started. When did China reached the flattening of the curve by numbers compared to all other countries that now have more cases than China and long did it take them to get there. China reached that number of cases and deaths first so they can't say China was manipulating the number to coincide. Was the time comparable? Trump and media are accusing China of faking the numbers. Well China handled the coronavirus better. Do they think the virus is still rampaging through China so the numbers have to be more? Wouldn't their journalists in China be reporting that? China couldn't contain the virus when it started but somehow they think China can hide it now if it's still spreading uncontrollably? They think China is still suppose to have more when they haven't even gotten a handle on the virus because that would mean the virus is still raging through China.
There have been plenty of such analysis, some already posted in this thread. But the very fact Trump and the American MSM isn’t presenting any kind of evidence to support their smear campaign should tell you all you need to know about where the facts stand. They have teams of paid full time researched dedicated to digging up dirt to support their party line narrative. If there was any actual evidence to support their blatant lies, you can bet your bottom dollar they would have plastered it over the front page of every paper they own long before now.
I take this latest move by Trump as another indicator of just how desperate he is getting in trying to shift focus and blame away from his own disastrous handling of the crisis.
Sadly, if he presses ahead with his pre-mature move to restart the US economy, things will get a lot worse fast. My guess is that he will start blaming the EU next, as the US outbreak actually happened because of spread from Europe, not China direct.
