China incompetent or did it for a reason: Donald Trump on virus

TIL Desk/World/Washington/ United States President Donald Trump, who has come under fierce criticism for his handling of the coronavirus crisis, has alleged that the Chinese government was either incompetent in preventing the deadly virus from spreading globally or did it for a reason.

More than 68,000 Americans have died of coronavirus in the last three months and over 1.1 million have tested positive. America accounts for the largest number of cases of infections and fatalities in the world. Globally 247,000 people have died and 3.5 million have tested positive so far.

“It (coronavirus) is a terrible thing, a terrible thing that happened to our country. It came from China. It should have been stopped. It could have been stopped on the spot,” Trump said during a town hall organised by the Fox News on Sunday.
