Yeah yeah what a stupid statistic
The Wuhan virus is an economic and terror weapon.
Millions will have died of it directly before all this is over
People are terrified
And just because no one says it doesn't mean the Chinese didn't attack us, didn't strike terror in our hearts, didn't murder us in cold blood, didn't destroy our economies
The Chinese state media, if anyone cares to remember, even insulted the US and threatened to sink you in the "mighty waves of the Corona virus"(when they threatened to hold back the PPE they bought up just prior to all of this)
We're at war
And yes this was a terror attack
