Coronavirus 2019-2020 thread (no unsubstantiated rumours!)

You can be damn sure that these climate data will be remembered in the west as China not doing their part for the environment
The alternative is China collapses and the world have no PPE supplies to fight off the pandemic or consumer goods to live their daily lives.
True but facts and contradictions have never been in the way of a good anti-China story in the ‘free media’
Coronavirus: China plans cold-chain bridge to ship and distribute vaccines to African nations
China is preparing to supply its to African countries with Addis Ababa expected to be the logistical hub with Egypt and Morocco as manufacturing centres.
Beijing is building a logistical network, which includes a air bridge from Shenzhen to Ethiopia. Early this month, Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba’s logistics arm said it had established the country’s first cross-border cold-chain route with Ethiopian Airlines, ready for the shipment of vaccines and other drugs.The facility features an ultra-low temperature that would enable the transport of coronavirus vaccines to Africa. The cargo would be sent from Shenzhen to Africa weekly and then shipped to other countries via Addis Ababa.
A few days ago, I mentioned that John sudworth did a hatchet job on China to help deflect U.K.'s own incompetence in containing covid and the "newly found strain!"
Well here it is, you can judge it for yourself just how much the hatchet job he has done. I feel a knighthood is on the card.
Covid: Wuhan scientist would 'welcome' visit probing lab leak theory
By John Sudworth
BBC News, Yunnan
A Chinese scientist at the centre of unsubstantiated claims that the coronavirus leaked from her laboratory in the Chinese city of Wuhan has told the BBC she is open to "any kind of visit" to rule it out.
The surprise statement from Prof Shi Zhengli comes as a World Health Organization team prepares to travel to Wuhan next month to begin its investigation into the origins of Covid-19.
The remote district of Tongguan, in China's south-western province of Yunnan, is hard to reach at the best of times. But when a BBC team tried to visit recently, it was impossible.
Plain-clothes police officers and other officials in unmarked cars followed us for miles along the narrow, bumpy roads, stopping when we did, backtracking with us when we were forced to turn around.
We found obstacles in our way, including a "broken-down" lorry, which locals confirmed had been placed across the road a few minutes before we arrived.
And we ran into checkpoints at which unidentified men told us their job was to keep us out.
At first sight, all of this might seem like a disproportionate effort given our intended destination, a nondescript, abandoned copper mine in which, back in 2012, six workers succumbed to a mystery illness that eventually claimed the lives of three of them.
But their tragedy, which would otherwise almost certainly have been largely forgotten, has been given new meaning by the Covid-19 pandemic.
Those three deaths are now at the centre of a major scientific controversy about the origins of the virus and the question of whether it came from nature, or from a laboratory.
And the attempts of Chinese authorities to stop us reaching the site are a sign of how hard they're working to control the narrative.

Yup western propaganda is shameless remember this graph showing preparedness against pandemic
The reality is almost the inverse
