WASHINGTON DC, KOMPAS.com – President of the United States (US) Donald Trump said he was “increasingly angry” with China for the epidemic of the corona virus.
His remarks came amid calls by a number of health officials who said they were not “in full control” of the pandemic.
In his tweet on Twitter, Trump said that the corona virus pandemic had spread to the entire world, where 10 million people were infected.

“With the countless damage done to the US, I have become increasingly angry with China,” he was quoted as saying AFP Wednesday (1/7/2020).
This outbreak, in which the 74-year-old president calls Beijing responsible, has heightened tensions between the two superpowers since the trade war.
In the midst of increasing infections in the US, especially in the southern and western regions, infectious disease expert Dr. Anthony Fauci expressed his concern.
In front of the US Senate, Fauci said that the Country of “Uncle Sam” “walked in the same direction”. “Obviously we are not in control of the current situation,” he said.
He also warned that positive cases could increase to 100,000 per day if the government and the public fail to take preventative measures.
There has been no answer from China related to Trump chirping. But, before they had accused the White House of politicizing a pandemic.
In Beijing’s view, Washington is trying to divert public attention because of their status as the country most affected by the corona virus.
At present, more than 2.7 million people in the US are positive of contracting Covid-19, with 130,122 of them declared dead.
Washington itself later responded that they asked the administration of the State of “Panda” to be more transparent regarding the handling of Covid-19.
