    I keep telling people posting this tidbit of fact in the face of what the political Left BELIEVES is not going to change the opinion of any of them. As Biden pointed out months ago, (paraphrased) forget facts and evidence, we embrace the TRUTH instead! Meaning that for vast numbers of the political Left, feeeeeeeeeeeelings on any subject really do supplant facts and evidence. Interesting, eh?

    It is strange how truth can be void of facts and evidence! In other words, in the liberal ideology, the truth can lye, and still be the truth. This brought to from the same people that want to teach out children (grandchildren in my case) that 2+2 can equal 3 if you can explain how your got that answer. The fact is that 2+2 will never correctly equal 3. To teach other wise, is teaching that a lye can be true. It is the whole concept behind the Common Core Curriculum.

    But in case, someone with half a brain or better is paying attention, allow me to share some statistics that I have compiled:

    Known cases % of Known Cases
    Country Population Infected Deaths Recovery Deaths Recovery
    1 China 1,436,768,070 80,967 3,248 71,150 4.0% 87.9%
    2 Itally 60,460,000 41,035 3,405 4,440 8.3% 10.8%
    3 Spain 46,754,778 20,410 1,041 1,588 5.1% 7.8%
    4 Iran 83,992,949 19,644 1,433 5,979 7.3% 30.4%
    5 Germany 83,780,000 17,372 45 115 0.3% 0.7%
    6 United States 333,456,000 14,387 217 125 1.5% 0.9%
    7 France 65,207,246 10,995 372 1,300 3.4% 11.8%
    8 South Korea 51,269,185 8,652 100 2,233 1.2% 25.8%
    9 Switzerland 8,591,365 3,438 33 15 1.0% 0.4%
    10 United Kingdom 66,575,226 3,269 144 79 4.4% 2.4%
    11 Netherland 17,105,083 2,469 77 0 3.1% 0.0%
    12 Belgium 11,619,972 2,257 37 214 1.6% 9.5%
    13 Austria 9,010,000 2,203 6 9 0.3% 0.4%
    14 Norway 5,421,241 1,805 7 0 0.4% 0.0%
    15 Sweden 10,100,000 1,452 11 0 0.8% 0.0%
    16 Denmark 5,815,000 1,308 9 0 0.7% 0.0%
    17 Malaysia 32,568,755 1,030 3 87 0.3% 8.4%
    18 Portugal 10,200,000 1,020 6 7 0.6% 0.7%
    These numbers are from March 19, 2020. They reflect the 18 countries that, on that date had more the 1000 reported infected patients.

    When you consider the population of the nations listed in relation to the number infected, one point stands out. The United States ranks next to last for percentage of our country infected. Malaysia has 3 thousandth of it's percent infected. The US has 4 thousandth of a percent infected. China, which has a population that is more then four times the US population, and yet they still have an percentage infected rate of 6 thousandth of a percentage.

    That was the Schiff Show time period.

    BTW if the Chinese had been transparent and proactive they wouldn’t have allowed 500,000 of their citizens to travel to the US (and many other countries) after the Wuhan virus had been identified. Thousands of innocent people would still be alive today.

    BTW the Corona virus case curve has flattened out in the hard hit Washington State.

    to be fair, Trump never banned Americans from traveling anywhere after our first case either

    in fact Trump allowed Americans to travel to China even after it was known

    You have made my point exactly. You actually believe that December was the first China realized there was a Corona virus problem ??? Too funny.

    The Chinese were not transparent about what was actually happening and for how long it had happened. And you can most likely multiply what they disclosed by 10X.

    Trump's Intel knew this, if he did not ignore his briefings maybe he would of done something sooner

    Trump was not transparent with the people about what was going on here, he lied to us and said 15 cases, soon to be zero, he said it was under control.....

    Trump handled it like China

    go look at the time line, US had the 1st case in Jan 20, this tell you its in dec or early jan. go read up on the research done by WHO on how they track it, the virus has incubation period of 2-14 days. if china hide and it start say Oct, in which we would see cases in US,EU and other asian country in Nov/dec, and mass outbreak in Jan, not in March like right now. again there is study down by much smarter people than you or me on this to track when it was started.

    go do the math, virus has incubation period of 2-14 days, if china hide for long time, we would see mass outbreak MUCH MUCH early. i'm pretty sure the folks at WHO and CDC is much smarter on how to figure out the timeline, just base on virus incubation and symtom timeline, then back track it. its on CDC and WHO site go check it. Trump ignore it for month, we see it in Jan, so dont try to find excuse for him.

    It started in China in November. They didn’t tell anyone about it. They are responsible for thousands of innocent people’s deaths.

    The WHO declared a pandemic in mid March.

    China was the first to discover it, we are not 100% where it started due to lack of testing... but like Trump, China tried to down play it

    Trump did not play it down. And he did not call it a hoax.
