China should pay for worldwide release of COVID-19
This is strictly a legal case regarding China's false statements to the WHO regarding COVID-19. It doesn't get into the highly likely scenario that one of the reasons the Chinese lied and tried to cover up COVID-19 was because it was genetically engineered in the Wuhan bioweapons facility...
What I'm for is building our own pharmaceutical industry within our borders.
Letting creepy Communists control 95% of that industry may have padded a lot of Deep State pockets but to allow this to happen is not only crazy but suicidal.
As for everything else we buy from China, buy it from someone else. Better yet, MAKE IT OURSELVES!
And if China doesn't like it and PC pissants want to call that racist--tough Schiff!
China is hiding something, and trying to blame everyone else. They have a bioweapons lab in Wuhan. They seemed to have ID'd the genetic makeup of this virus a little too quickly for me.
They want to take over the world, and this is a damn good way to do it.
If it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck....
Maybe this has something to do with it. Please read what we was paid and for what services.

Harvard University Professor and Two Chinese Nationals Charged in Three Separate China Related Cases
The Department of Justice announced today that the Chair of Harvard University’s Chemistry and Chemical Biology Department and two Chinese nationals have been charged in connection with aiding the People’s Republic of China.
Dr. Charles Lieber, 60, Chair of the Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology at Harvard University, was arrested this morning and charged by criminal complaint with one count of making a materially false, fictitious and fraudulent statement. Lieber will appear this afternoon before Magistrate Judge Marianne B. Bowler in federal court in Boston, Massachusetts.
Yanqing Ye, 29, a Chinese national, was charged in an indictment today with one count each of visa fraud, making false statements, acting as an agent of a foreign government and conspiracy. Ye is currently in China.
Zaosong Zheng, 30, a Chinese national, was arrested on Dec. 10, 2019, at Boston’s Logan International Airport and charged by criminal complaint with attempting to smuggle 21 vials of biological research to China. On Jan. 21, 2020, Zheng was indicted on one count of smuggling goods from the United States and one count of making false, fictitious or fraudulent statements. He has been detained since Dec. 30, 2019.
Dr. Charles Lieber
According to court documents, since 2008, Dr. Lieber who has served as the Principal Investigator of the Lieber Research Group at Harvard University, which specialized in the area of nanoscience, has received more than $15,000,000 in grant funding from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and Department of Defense (DOD). These grants require the disclosure of significant foreign financial conflicts of interest, including financial support from foreign governments or foreign entities. Unbeknownst to Harvard University beginning in 2011, Lieber became a “Strategic Scientist” at Wuhan University of Technology (WUT) in China and was a contractual participant in China’s Thousand Talents Plan from in or about 2012 to 2017. China’s Thousand Talents Plan is one of the most prominent Chinese Talent recruit plans that are designed to attract, recruit, and cultivate high-level scientific talent in furtherance of China’s scientific development, economic prosperity and national security. These talent programs seek to lure Chinese overseas talent and foreign experts to bring their knowledge and experience to China and reward individuals for stealing proprietary information. Under the terms of Lieber’s three-year Thousand Talents contract, WUT paid Lieber $50,000 USD per month, living expenses of up to 1,000,000 Chinese Yuan (approximately $158,000 USD at the time) and awarded him more than $1.5 million to establish a research lab at WUT. In return, Lieber was obligated to work for WUT “not less than nine months a year” by “declaring international cooperation projects, cultivating young teachers and Ph.D. students, organizing international conference[s], applying for patents and publishing articles in the name of” WUT.
The complaint alleges that in 2018 and 2019, Lieber lied about his involvement in the Thousand Talents Plan and affiliation with WUT. On or about, April 24, 2018, during an interview with investigators, Lieber stated that he was never asked to participate in the Thousand Talents Program, but he “wasn’t sure” how China categorized him. In November 2018, NIH inquired of Harvard whether Lieber had failed to disclose his then-suspected relationship with WUT and China’s Thousand Talents Plan. Lieber caused Harvard to falsely tell NIH that Lieber “had no formal association with WUT” after 2012, that “WUT continued to falsely exaggerate” his involvement with WUT in subsequent years, and that Lieber “is not and has never been a participant in” China’s Thousand Talents Plan.
The other problem is that such coercion is short-lived and requires a lot of resources dedicated to enforcement which decreases overall productivity. "Control" of others requires a ton of overhead and inefficiency...
Hiring americans here is a real pain in the a%%, between the new law about family leave and sick leave, the difficulties surrounding layoffs and unemployment insurance, the massive penalties if you even accidentally underpay payroll taxes, the payroll taxes themselves, and I could go on....
The coronavirus now devastating large swaths of China, escaped from one of the country’s bioresearch labs. The one in Wuhan.
! "Some Chinese researchers are in the habit of selling their laboratory animals to street vendors after they have finished experimenting on them". !
The street vendors - they sell live animals for human food. dogs, monkeys, rates .. .
News, Li has phoned Trump, ~ we are all friends now. Bad implications from this for China, Li realizes he is in danger, not just from Trump but from his own upper echelons.
You know full well that is not feasible.
Chine did not allow any access to the CDC after the epidemic broke out.
You think they will allow a watchdog that would potentially prevent them from manipulating? No way.
If you get a chance see Four Corners Coronavirus...a 45-minute documentary now on youtube... You can see some things we couldn't see when they were happening in China.
It is clear the WHO had its share of the disaster by downplaying the seriousness of the spread. I read an article about the Secretary of the WHO who apparently is in bed with the Chinese communists.
Thanks for the link. It was a disturbing story.
RE...PER..ATIONS.....Come On!...dada da da da da...Come On!...oooh hooo!
