£3.2 Trillion And Rising: - China's Coronavirus Cost

Rating: 5.0


£3.2 trillion and rising...
That's the coronavirus cost so far on the world's ruined economies.
Thanks to China.
And thanks to China for dragging its feet.
For if the Chinese Communist Party,
Had been more open and honest about,
The outbreak late last year.
And spared the world so much misleading information.
Things and rapid procedures could have been implemented,
Flights and travel cancelled, movement restrictions,
Quarantine and screening, blah, blah, blah.
But, more importantly...
Lives could have been saved.
Already major leading nations are already,
Looking into evidence of,
Ten legal avenues of China breaching international,
Healthcare treaty responsibilities.
To submit a report against China to reclaim damages from them...

It is titled: -
'Coronavirus Compensation: Assessing China's Potential
Culpability And Avenues Of Legal Response.'

This report concludes,
The Chinese Communist Party sought to conceal,
Bad news at the top,
And to conceal bad news from the outside world.

And yes,
£3.2 trillion is a lot of money.
But ask yourselves...
What is the value of a lost human life?
What is the value of a lost loved one? ...

Sadly the cost has now risen to £14 trillion. And human lives and jobs.... again priceless and countless.

The cost as of today is £9.6 Trillion. And of human lives and jobs...countless. China needs to clean up its act.

Thank you Rose Marie for your kind comment. And yes it's a question of wait and see after the dust settles and normality arrives again. I think they have a lot of explaining to do. Stay well and healthy Rose Marie and all the loved ones around you. Take care.
