Radio Farda, April 05, 2020
The spokesman of Iran’s health ministry has said that figures of coronavirus infections and deaths published by China’s government was a “bitter joke”.
Story continues below advertisementKianush Jahanpur in a video media conference March 5 said, “It seems statistics from China was a bitter joke, because many in the world thought this is just like influenza, with fewer deaths. This [impression] were based on reports from China and now it seems China made a bitter joke with the rest of the world”.
Jahanpur added, “If in China they say an epidemic was controlled in two months, one should really think about it”.
U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo also on Friday questioned information received from China, complaining that it led the United States to face more challenges in dealing with the epidemic.
In recent days world media has also questioned coronavirus statistics published by China, which says in Wuhan, the epicenter of the epidemic 2,500 people lost their lives, while the death toll is much higher in European countries and the United States, which have modern or advanced medical infrastructure.
The death rate per one million people in Italy and Spain is around 250, while China’s official death rate is just 2. As of April 4, the U.S. deaths per one million were 26.

U.S. Created Coronavirus to Target Islamic Nations!
(And Other Conspiracy Theories)

…
Iran’s Supreme Leader, the Ayatollah Khamenei, meanwhile, explained Iran’s rejection of an American offer of help with the coronavirus pandemic on the basis of his own conspiracy theory. “I do not know how real this accusation is but when it exists, who in their right mind would trust you to bring them medication?” said Khamenei. “Possibly your medicine is a way to spread the virus more.” The coronavirus, he added, “is specifically built for Iran using the genetic data of Iranians which they have obtained through different means.”

Maybe it’s not a good idea to do business with China and allow them to dominate in trade no matter how cheap they are? China is competing with the U.S. for dominance. How much of a price are you willing to pay ?
Why Do New Disease Outbreaks Always Seem to Start in China?
.By Ross Pomeroy – RCP StaffFebruary 18, 2020
The Asian Flu in 1956 killed between one and four million people worldwide.
SARS in 2002 infected 8,098 and killed 774 in seventeen counties.
H7N9 emerged ten years later to strike at least 1,223 people and kill four out of every ten of them. Now, the milder, yet more infectious
COVID-19 has sickened more than 70,000 across the globe, resulting in 1,771 deaths.
All of these outbreaks originated in China, but why? Why is China such a hotspot for novel diseases?
(You know why…)
You missed the Hong Kong flu in 1969–I had it.
The Black Death also originated in China, brought to Europe via trade routes.
Yes, trade routes!
It is no coincidence that the trail of infection corresponds to the One Belt One Road, Chinese trade initiative.
