China Pushes Back Against U.S. Calls for Coronavirus Compensation: Live Updates

A spokesman accused U.S. politicians of “lying through their teeth,” about the origins of the virus. In India, plans for a partial reopening are creating fear and uncertainty.
The government of China has been reluctant at best in coming to terms with the virus that emanated from Wahon province, whether from a lab or a "wet market."  It has used its influence with the WHO to slow a worldwide reaction to the virus until it was too late to lock down the spread.  Now it is in a defensive posture and denying the obvious as it seeks to avoid financial responsibility for the financial catastrophe that was a result of the pandemic.
