China News Service, Beijing, September 2 (Reporter Zhang Su) The Special Investigation Committee for the New Coronavirus in the US House of Representatives disclosed the White House investigation report stating that US government officials deliberately covered up the epidemic.

In response to this, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Hua Chunying responded at a regular press conference on September 2.

  A reporter asked that US government officials' public statements about the epidemic contradicted the content of the aforementioned report, deliberately covering up the epidemic, causing more than 58,000 additional deaths of American citizens since June, posing a threat to the lives of millions of Americans.

An investigation by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found that 1 out of every 20 medical workers in the United States has been infected with the new coronavirus, 69% of which have never been detected.

More and more people believe that the performance of the US in fighting the epidemic is in sharp contrast with China. What's your comment on this?

  "I have no intention of judging the performance of the United States in fighting the epidemic, but I remember that Dr. Fauci once said that numbers will not deceive." Hua Chunying replied.

  She mentioned the "First Lesson of School" broadcast on the evening of September 1, calling it an extraordinary and moving "first lesson".

Zhong Nanshan, winner of the "Medal of the Republic", Zhang Boli, Zhang Dingyu, Chen Wei and other national honorary titles of "People's Hero", vividly told the story of China's fight against the epidemic in this program.

The program is divided into three chapters: unity, science, and responsibility. These three key words provide a good answer to the "secret" why China can achieve a major strategic victory in the fight against the epidemic in such a short period of time.

  Hua Chunying said that as Academician Zhong Nanshan said, Wuhan closed the Lihan Channel on January 23. This heroic city has undergone a full 76-day and 1814-hour blockade, in exchange for reducing infections by at least 700,000 people in China.

This is our country, and the first thing to do is to grasp human life.

Human life is the most important human right. We have saved so many lives. This is the manifestation of our greatest human right.

  She further pointed out that China not only protects the life safety and health of the Chinese people to the greatest extent, but also makes important contributions to safeguarding the life safety and health of the people of the world.

  Hua Chunying also noticed that on January 23, when China closed the passage from Hanoi, the United States officially announced only one confirmed case of new coronary pneumonia; on January 31, the United States suspended direct flights between China and the United States; on February 2, The United States closed its borders to all Chinese citizens. At that time, the US announced only more than 10 confirmed cases.

  "The timeline is clear and clear." She said that after China cut off the spread of the epidemic to the world, in just a few months, why the domestic epidemic situation in the United States has undergone such changes is a matter of serious consideration and in-depth investigation. The problem.

  Hua Chunying also said that we sympathize with the American people in their current difficult situation, and we wish them an early victory over the epidemic. (Finish)
