China Disclosed Just Two-Thirds of Its COVID Cases in Pandemic's Early Days, Report Says

Health authorities in China publicly minimized the number of COVID-19 cases during February and March, according to files obtained by CNN.

On February 10, China reported 3,911 favorable cases of the coronavirus with 2,097 confirmed cases and 1,814 cases of COVID-19 suspected. Validated cases numbered 2,345 while 1,772 cases had actually been identified by clinicians.

Reports suggested that Chinese health officials did not publicly reveal all COVID-19 cases throughout the beginning of the pandemic, something President Donald Trump had long alleged.

In Might, Trump revealed that the U.S. would withdraw from the World Health Company (WHO), declaring that the organization was complicit in helping Chinese authorities obscure their real coronavirus case figure.

” The world is now suffering as a result of the malfeasance of the Chinese federal government,” Trump said.

Trump has also declared that inaccurate details from the Chinese federal government hindered the U.S.’s ability to react rapidly to the pandemic.

Chinese Executive Vice Foreign Minister Le Yucheng informed NBC News in April that COVID-19 was a “natural catastrophe” and that China was not accountable for any delay in coronavirus research study.

As of November 30, there have actually been an overall of 63,589,301 reported cases of COVID-19 worldwide with 1,473,920 fatalities attributable to the infection.
