02 April 2020China has hidden the real extent of the coronavirus in the country and above all the data on the dead and infected are false. These are the US intelligence findings contained in a classified report received by the White House last week, as Bloomberg revealed, while UN secretary general Antonio Guterres defined the pandemic as "the worst global crisis since World War II. ". Beijing has so far reported about 82,000 positive cases and 3,300 deaths since the virus spread to the province of Hubei in late 2019. Numbers far lower than in Italy, Spain and the United States.President Donald Trump questioned the accuracy of official data provided by China on the coronavirus epidemic after U.S. lawmakers accused Beijing of hiding them, citing an intelligence report. "How do we know" if they are accurate, Trump asked at the press conference. "Their numbers seem to be a little too low." Trump insisted that "the relationship with China is good" and that it has remained close to President Xi Jinping.
China defines the United States to be "shameless" after the release of the US intelligence report cited by the Bloomberg agency and after Trump's statements. US officials want to blame the epidemic, said Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying, adding that China has been "open and transparent" in releasing information about the outbreak spread by Wuhan at the end of 2019. in inland China. The United States, added the spokeswoman, should stop politicizing the epidemic and focus on the health emergency.
