On March 14, my country's ambassador to Kazakhstan Zhang Xiao also spoke in Russian on Facebook, accusing the United States of only slandering and slandering China in the early stages of the epidemic, and wasting the precious time that China has won with his life for the world.
He also pointed out that the U.S. epidemic data is "too much water", calling for the U.S. government to be open and transparent, not to politicize the virus, and not to scapegoat!

Ambassador Zhang Xiao said in a post that the US government: What are you doing at the beginning of the new crown pneumonia epidemic? Still obsessed with geopolitical games, domestic political agenda and slander China. You have wasted the precious time that China has won with its lives for all countries in the world, including you.
Ambassador Zhang also criticized the US data for not being open and transparent. He said that the US government firmly believes that the early warning of its own health officials is a "lie" and insists that the situation is under control. But now that the new crown virus has spread in more than 40 states in the United States, "you immediately become panicked."
According to the latest report from CNN and based on data from various state government agencies and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), there are at least 3482 confirmed cases of new coronary pneumonia in 49 states, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and Washington, DC. At least 65 People died. West Virginia remains the only state with no confirmed cases.
It is worth noting that the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) data is still stuck on March 13th: 1629 confirmed cases and 41 deaths. (Observer's Note: The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention stopped updating data over the weekend.)

Ambassador Zhang Xiao said, however, American scientists themselves have confirmed that many people who died of flu are actually the new crown virus. Of the victims, so the actual death toll is much higher. "Your data contains too much water. How can you talk about it transparently?"
"It is ridiculous that in the face of epidemics, your country did not take emergency measures to fill and repair loopholes, but instead put the blame on China, calling it "The Chinese virus." Such a hasty conclusion makes people feel suspicious." Ambassador Zhang continued to appeal that experts from all over the world are studying the origin of the virus, and the truth will eventually become clear to the world. What we need to do now is to unite all countries to fight the virus together, rather than shirk responsibility. Stop throwing the pot to find a scapegoat!
Regarding the increasingly severe epidemic in the United States, Ambassador Zhang Xiao said that your country lacks masks, gloves, test reagents and equipment and supplies, and even the stock market crashes. Is this also China’s fault? It’s time for to give your country’s voters and the international community an explanation. "What are you hiding?" Finally, Ambassador Zhang reiterated that the carelessness of the US government in epidemic prevention has caused a waste of time that China has won for the world. also urges the United States not to continue this meaningless trick, because politicizing the virus will make the situation worse.
"The virus is terrible, even the most powerful country in the world will be vulnerable. We must always remember not to spit into the well (don't do stupid things)."
