Pompeo: Chinese authorities release hundreds of thousands of infected from Wuhan

At the beginning of the coronavirus epidemic in China, the country's authorities allowed "hundreds of thousands of infected" to leave Wuhan. This statement was made by US Secretary of State Michael Pompeo on Fox News.

According to the head of the US State Department, the actions of the Chinese authorities led to danger for the whole world, since they (the authorities) knew about the risk of infection, but did nothing, allowing hundreds of thousands of people to leave the country.



They (the Chinese authorities - note VO) wasted the important first days in the beginning, allowing hundreds of thousands of people to leave Wuhan and go to places like Italy, where they now suffer so much. They tried to prevent the spread of information (...) instead of trying to truly prevent the spread of the virus, which the world demanded

- declared Pompeo.

Asked by the journalist whether the information about the virus that Beijing now provides is credible, Pompeo said that this is one of the most important questions, but the US cannot send doctors there to study on the spot.

At the very beginning, we proposed sending the best American experts there to assist them and the World Health Organization (WHO). We were not allowed to enter

he explained, adding that the Chinese authorities were not sufficiently open for dialogue.

They were not sufficiently transparent (open to dialogue - approx. VO), there is a risk that if we do not fix it, if we do not get to the bottom of the matter, it may happen again. Maybe not in this form, maybe not that way, but transparency is important

- emphasized the head of the US State Department.

        The US leadership seems to have been burned by the lips of Pompeo, since it is the thief who always shouts the loudest - "Stop thief". Having released the virus from the test tube, the mattresses now want to shift the responsibility onto the Chinese.

      In the press, links to a scientific journal appeared, where in the 2015 issue it was written that coronavirus from bats was isolated for American grants by scientists from the USA, Switzerland and China and experiments were carried out to spread its effect to people. They write about this "Arguments of the week". Moreover, experiments have shown that old bats die 100%, and it does not affect young ones. Everything is happening with people as it is now.
      So the fault is directly to the United States.

        Here is this article:
        Article November 13, 2015
        A successful laboratory experiment to create a hybrid form of bat coronavirus that can infect humans has raised concerns among scientists about the unpredictable consequences of a mutant virus leak. The discovery and controversy surrounding it is reported by Nature News.

        American biologists created a "chimera" from the Chinese horseshoe bats virus, known as SHC014: its surface protein was transferred to the SARS virus living in the lungs of experimental mice (to simulate human infection). Scientists have proven that the SHC014 virus already has all the necessary tools to bind to a key receptor for human cells. The experiment confirmed the hypothesis of the possibility of direct human infection with bat coronaviruses.

        However, other virologists doubt that the conclusion justifies the risk of the experiment: scientists have created a new virus that multiplies perfectly in human cells. Moreover, they continued their work even after in October 2014 the US government introduced a moratorium on funding research for influenza viruses, SARS and MERS (an exception was made for the project).

        The authors of the study do not agree with this position: if not for the experiment, no one would have known about the threat of the SHC014 virus. All scientists were sure that he was not able to infect humans, and only experience with transplantation showed that the bat virus SHC014 had already overcome key obstacles and learned how to penetrate cells.

        there is not a word about age-related susceptibility. There is also nothing about the "insidious" properties of the virus.
        However, there is evidence of surface proteins, so the vaccine should have appeared a long time ago. What prevents the expressing part of the virus genome from being inserted into the genome of E. coli and getting the vaccine by railway tanks?

          Right. Don't underestimate. At Hitler's headquarters, they were convinced that the USSR was a colossus with feet of clay. I read Tippelskirch here at my leisure. Quite a high-ranking comrade. He took so many prisoners in the summer of 1941 that it is not clear why the Germans did not reach the planned line of Arkhangelsk-Astrakhan. And Hitler did not develop the Barbarossa plan alone. This company did not foresee a winter campaign. Yes, they underestimated the Red Army and Russians in general ... As well as the size and climate of Russia. "But the Fuhrer, they say, avoided Napoleon's mistakes! - Clausewitz proved once and for all that Napoleon acted correctly in Russia!" (D. Knoll, "The Adventures of Werner Holt"). As for Psaki, this is not a screen, but a typical, as we have been saying for some time, a product. Who was brandishing a test tube at the UN? When a person lies so blatantly, it means that he thinks that everyone is the same as him and will swallow his lies. That is, it also underestimates. I must say, the UN passed. A liar is not capable of thinking seriously at all. He keeps thinking how to lie better, forgets what exactly on what occasion he was lying, and comes across in his lies again and again.

By the end of 2019, the most popular foreign cities by the number of hotels booked in them were: Paris, Barcelona, ​​Prague, Rome, Berlin, Warsaw, Nice, Istanbul, Milan, London.

      Full goes. First, "hundreds of thousands of infected" would FIRST of all spread the virus first across China, then somewhere else. And in China, just - the virus is over, they are finishing off the foci. And in the United States - in full growth. So it was not "China released", but "the United States got rid of it." Moreover, what is funny, most likely this is their development - it is too timely, but they are not ready for the fact that a virus can hit them. "And we are for scho" - in its purest form.

        Fate gives Russia the opportunity to publicly accuse the United States of creating this virus and its spread, but this is not happening. Why? On the contrary, in the Western media, a wave of accusations against Russia of "deliberate disinformation" and untwisting "hysteria" about this virus and its pandemic are being spun. What's happening? Why, having such information, the Russian Foreign Ministry keeps its language in one place, instead of calling an urgent meeting of the UN, the Security Council on the investigation of the creation and spread of the coronavirus, in fact, the beginning of the US "bacterological war" against the whole world? How much stench from the West was about Sripals, "chlorine" in Syria, how much mud then poured out on Russia, now fate gives a chance to get even for it .... but from the Russian Foreign Ministry - SILENCE.

          What a chance? You even come back to earth, do not wind in the clouds. First, almost all information flows and media are controlled by the West (including Internet traffic). Second, who and when in the West listened to what Russia was saying? Take the time to raise this issue. How many reports to the UN, and on the Skripals case, and on the "chemical attacks" in Syria, has Nebenzia made. Someone heard? Those who need it, they know everything perfectly well, don't worry. And playing with an obviously stronger opponent (in terms of information), on their field, according to their rules, is a deliberate loss. Well, maybe not a loss, but certainly not a victory. No one in the world needs the truth today. Then we'll see if that can change. This does not mean that nothing should be done, just act according to circumstances. Something like this.

At least a knockdown, and there with China will try to come up with an even. I don’t know how else it will go, but there is already that Russia is already accused of comments. In my opinion, the chances of China and the USA are somewhere around 50 to 50.

      COVID-19 is a joint Sino-American development based on the SARS coronavirus of 2002, which has since been performed at the Army Biological Laboratory in Wuhan and burst out as a result of a man-made accident.

      It is because of the orientation of the new coronavirus exclusively to the defeat of people that it is not possible to quickly develop a vaccine, since COVID-19 does not infect experimental animals.

      The Americans wanted to cover up the traces of their participation in the Wuhan laboratory, but the Chinese government did not allow this.

      Well, the truth in his statement is undeniable. The question is who is to blame for the appearance of this tragedy.

      finally apricots are right. Siners threw all the problems. from these animals is not the first infection creeps out. they devour the devil knows that, therefore it is not surprising that they are ill the devil knows what, and then they fly around the world, spread the infection.
      in my opinion, the world needs to be fenced off from them by eternal quarantine and let them bat in their zapovednik, litter pandas and rat armpits hawal, separately from humanity.

      And what is he wrong about? The world is now raking the consequences of an epidemic that the Chinese released into the world. 2 months there was no evidence that something was happening in Wuhan. Foreigners were not allowed there. The Chinese hid both the scale and speed of the virus. In Europe, a uniform out is underway. The economy has fallen everywhere, many have lost their jobs due to quarantine. Damage to the economies of the world is likely to be trillions of dollars. I'm not talking about dead people. They owe all this to the Chinese, and not to Pompeo, as many here say. More recently, the Chinese released SARS, now the Crown, tomorrow they will devour something just as evil and incurable, and the northern fox may come to humanity. And what, again, Pompeo will be to blame? Not Pompeo ate bats, and not Pompeo did not close Wuhan for 2 months - the Chinese did it all.
