Coronavirus: Where Did It Come From?

China’s President Xi Jinping spoke on the phone with Donald Trump on Friday March 27.


President Xi offered China’s support in fighting the virus in the US.


The Chinese are astute diplomats.


At the outset, China was held responsible for “spreading infection” Worldwide



The contentious issue: will Trump drop the Coronavirus “Made in China” tag?



Earlier in March, Trump was unequivocal: “China has to pay for this… “The world is paying a very big price for what they did,”


But it now appears that the “Made in China” virus rhetoric is on hold. And China’s foreign ministry is no longer insinuating that the “Chinese virus” was “Made in America”… brought into Wuhan during the October Military Games.


Donald Trump said he’ll stop using the term “Chinese virus,”



 “I don’t regret it, but they accused us of having done it through our soldiers, they said our soldiers did it on purpose, what kind of a thing is that?”


“Look, everyone knows it came out of China, but I decided we shouldn’t make any more of a big deal out of it. I think I made a big deal. I think people understand it. But that all began when they said our soldiers started it. Our soldiers had nothing to do with it.”





To which Donald Trump retorted:



Moreover, in a recent study focussing on the transmission of the virus, Larry Romanoff comes to the conclusion that the coronavirus could not have spontaneously “travelled” (“on its own”) from one country to the next infecting 85 countries in a matter of a few days starting in early February:



A natural virus hasn’t the ability to simultaneously infect 85 different countries on all continents of the world, with outbreaks in multiple locations in each country…


More peculiar is that these countries were by no means all infected with the same variety of the virus, which means the simultaneous infections in these 85 countries were not from the same source. …



Beijing contends that most of the new cases in China are being brought into China by foreign visitors including Americans.

Meanwhile, the Prime Minister of Australia, Scott Morrison whose a close ally and friend of Donald Trump dropped a bombshell:



“The country which has actually been responsible for a large amount of these (coronavirus cases) has actually been the United States”
