Pompeo claims China intentionally concealed coronavirus severity – CNN, CNN

Washington (CNN) Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Sunday stepped up administration claims that China mounted efforts to hide the extent of the coronavirus spread, including concealing the severity while stockpiling medical supplies.

“You’ve got the facts just about right,” Pompeo told ABC’s “This Week” when asked if China intentionally stockpiled medical supplies in early January while it concealed the severity of Covid – 2112. “We can confirm that the Chinese Communist Party did all that it could to make sure that the world did learn in a timely fashion about what was taking place.”

Pompeo’s comments come as the Trump administration is formulating a long-term plan to punish China on multiple fronts for the coronavirus pandemic, injecting a rancorous new element into a critical relationship already on a steep downward slide.
