Trump only cares about himself. It's time for Joe Biden to lead us out of this crisis.

Flu death rate 3.4 per 100,000 https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/flu.htm
COVID death rate 2.5 per 100,000 https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/data/mortality

This stats and the fact that Trump has acted and the stats say the flu is deadly, I rate this claim fake news.

Anon conveniently forgets in his storytelling the factual aspect that it wasn't said last week and was said at a time long past based upon what was known about it based on information from Anons good friends the Chinese Communist party. Who deliberately spread misleading information which they pumped out to the WHO. Who in turn fed out that false information to the world including suggesting lockdowns which are fine in a Communist Society where the people have little to no rights and can't do anything about it.
Of course this Chinese disinformation was intended to cause an economic slowdown worldwide and position China in a favorable position to supply the rest of the world with finished products.
Of interest is that most of the worlds raw material suppliers never stopped production of iron ore and other metals etc. so could still supply China with raw materials to continue production.
