Old tweets from the @WHO and this thread explain why China SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE for the spread of the China Virus

And less than a week later they locked down the city of Wuhan:

And the first person with the China Virus in America? That’s right. It was a traveler from Wuhan:

They covered it up for weeks and now they’re saying the U.S. military is actually behind the outbreak, so spare us the outrage over calling it what it is. THREAD ==>

For weeks, China covered up the coronavirus pandemic. And in the days and weeks after the situation was evident, China left its airports and borders open, allowing the virus to migrate internationally.

China ensured that it would not be the only casualty to the economic fallout.

As China recovers, it has mobilized its manufacturing sector to make gear that no one would've needed had it closed off in the first place. It's trying to paint itself as a hero riding to the world's rescue.

China must be held accountable for the pandemic.

As I previously noted, China did everything it could to suppress any news or information about the coronavirus and arrested doctors who blew the whistle. https://t.co/IosmfnKdak

And that’s why China just kicked out reporters from the NYT, WaPo and WSJ:

China pulls credentials for journalists at three U.S. news outlets, ⁦@emilyrauhala⁩ reports. WSJ, WaPo, NYT all affected. (Deleted earlier tweet that mistakenly included Time and VOA) https://t.co/eTdeQbfts0
