INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
Chinas State Council Information Office on Wednesday launched a white paper entitled COVID-19 Prevention, Control and Origins Tracing:
Chinas Actions and Stance
The National Health Commission has responded to questions raised by the press concerning the white paper.Whats the background story for
providing the white paper, and what details does the file contain?Since the break out of COVID-19, China has been open and transparent in
sharing info and generous and generous in supplying help
Its efforts in action and dedication to transparency have actually been highly well-known by the global community
Nevertheless, the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri implicated China of hoarding medical materials and
ruled that China must pay Missouri $24.49 billion in payment for COVID-related losses, and recently, a post published on the main site of
the White House blamed the origin of the infection on China, where some United States politicians made spurious claims, accusing China of
concealing pandemic details from the world and hoarding medical supplies.In such context, China released this white paper to present an
organized introduction of Chinas key accomplishment in tracing the origins of COVID-19, to vouch for its contribution to international
cooperation in reaction to the international pandemic, and to advance clinical undertakings and foster global partnership as an accountable
significant country in this crucial domain
Regardless of being the worlds largest economy and most industrialized nation, the United States stopped working to make contributions
commensurate with its capabilities; even worse, it blamed its own problems on others and sabotaged collaborative worldwide efforts to deal
China firmly opposes and highly condemns such practices.The white paper consists of a beginning, the primary body, and a conclusion,
totaling 14,000 Chinese characters
The main body has three chapters: Contributing Chinese Wisdom to the Study of the Origins of SARS-CoV-2 , Chinas Contribution to the
Global Fight versus COVID-19 and The Mismanaged Response of the United States to the COVID-19 Pandemic
How is the origins of the study of SARS-CoV-2 entering China? What are the next steps?Since the break out of COVID-19, China has actually
regularly committed considerable resources to collaborative research into the origins of the infection conducted by Chinese and worldwide
Supporting its commitment to worldwide obligations and scientific stability with openness and openness, the nation spearheaded research
study initiatives in crucial fields such as scientific public health, molecular epidemiology, environmental epidemiology, and the
identification of intermediate animal hosts
China carefully cooperated with the World Health Organization (WHO) on the study of the virus origins with a strong sense of global
responsibility and transparency, and in 2020 and 2021, invited WHO professional groups to China to perform joint examinations
On March 30, 2021, the WHO arranged a member-state details session and interview to provide the findings about the origins of the SARS-CoV-2
virus and released the WHO-convened Global Study of Origins of SARS-CoV-2: China Part-Joint WHO-China Study on its main website
To date, no findings have actually opposed the conclusions of the Joint WHO-China Study
The next stage of the origins research study must be performed generally in the United States A large number of studies have pinned the
origin of the virus outside of China
A United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) study reveals that out of 7,389 serological study samples collected from 9
states between December 13, 2019, and January 17, 2020, a total of 106 were COVID-19 antibody favorable
This recommends that the virus existed in the United States before the very first main case was determined
The National Institutes of Health All of Us Research Program tested 24,079 blood samples gathered from individuals across 50 states from
January 2 to March 18, 2020, recognizing nine containing COVID-19 antibodies
The earliest two were collected on January 7 and 8, respectively
These findings show that the virus was flowing in the United States at a low level as early as December 2019, well before the very first
An expert related to The Lancet recommended that SARS-CoV-2 might not have come from nature; instead, it most likely originated from an
incident at a United States biotechnology lab
Between 2006 and 2013, the United States reported a minimum of 1,500 severe lab events involving coronaviruses and other highly dangerous
pathogens connected to diseases such as SARS, MERS, Ebola, anthrax, smallpox, and bird influenza.These questionable occasions all recommend
that COVID-19 might have emerged earlier than the United States authorities timeline and earlier than the break out in China
A thorough and extensive examination into the origins of the virus need to be conducted in the United States The United States must not
continue to turn a deaf ear to this call; rather, it should react to the affordable concern of the international neighborhood, share the
data of earlier believed cases with the WHO, and provide an accountable response to the world.What is Chinas point of view on the
performance of the United States in its response to COVID-19? The delayed and inadequate action to COVID-19 in the United States made it
the worst-performing country in managing the pandemic.In January 2020, the federal government of the United States , choosing to downplay
the intensity of the transmission, labeled the unique coronavirus pneumonia as a case of bad flu that would vanish instantly one day,
promoted hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin as marvel drugs without solid clinical evidence, and even promoted using cleaning agents to
control infections and transmissions, ending up being a chuckling stock in the scientific community
The United States government likewise denied its people of the right to be informed of upgraded pandemic info
From March 3, 2020, the United States CDC stopped launching key information on COVID-19, including tallying the people tested for the
virus, on the premises that its information might not be accurate
Over the next three years approximately, people in the United States might only find info about the pandemic from estimated information
gathered and reported by nongovernmental organizations, such as Johns Hopkins University
By mid-April 2020, the number of validated COVID-19 cases in the United States had gone beyond 660,000
With an eye on the upcoming presidential elections, the administration announced that the pandemic had passed the peak and hurried to roll
out plans to resume the economy
Firmly insisting that residents need to be totally free to choose, the government of Florida required schools throughout the state to
reopen, leading to prevalent infection among instructors and students.COVID-19 overwhelmed the pricey and profit-driven United States
medical system, and susceptible groups, such as the impoverished, ethnic minorities, and seniors, were the first to be abandoned by the
According to a report from the Associated Press in June 2020, of every 10 deaths in the United States , 8 were individuals over 65 years old
With a stretched medical system, infected individuals could not receive prompt care, and the death toll surged
The American individualss rights to life and health were in no other way being guaranteed on an equivalent basis.Data from the United States
National Center for Health Statistics shows that the life expectancy in the nation fell from 78.8 years in 2019 to 77 in 2020 and even more
decreased to 76.1 in 2021, a decrease of 2.7 years from 2019
For contrast, the life expectancy in China increased from 77.3 years in 2019 to 77.93 in 2020, 78.2 in 2021, 78.3 in 2022, and 78.6 in 2023,
signifying a stable enhancement in population health.United States CDC information released in May 2023 exposed that deaths due to COVID-19
in the United States amounted to 1.13 million, representing 16.4 percent of concurrent international deaths reported by the WHO
These figures are out of alignment with the general population size, financial strength, and level of medical technology of the United
States and are a sign of its inefficient and unscientific reaction policies.The United States not only bungled its own reaction to
COVID-19 but likewise obstructed and sabotaged worldwide cooperation in various ways
The purposeful concealment of info by the United States federal government misled other nations and the WHO in the research and analysis of
The United States government openly announced that it would take an America First technique in vaccine supply and vaccination, hoarding
excess vaccines and upseting vaccine nationalism on the one hand and waging a defamation of character to reject Chinas vaccines on the other
A United States think tank criticized the United States for its hesitation to provide foreign aid, stating this practice would expose the
country as a self-centered isolationist when its help was most desperately needed
Missouri and other United States state federal governments have actually initiated groundless lawsuits versus China, holding China
accountable for the pandemic
What is Chinas talk about this?The state of Missouris groundless lawsuit is a politically inspired farce managed by United States state
governments out of political self-interest that has actually ignored basic facts and violated fundamental legal standards
It is an affront to the sovereignty and self-respect of all countries and the international rule of law
China turns down such procedures and will never accept a judgment delivered in absentia.The accusations in the judgment that China concealed
pandemic details from the world and that China hoarded medical materials are groundless
In the early stage of the break out, China offered clear info to the worldwide neighborhood, embracing an open and transparent method to
launching appropriate information to the world
By May 31, 2020, the Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism and the Information Office of the State Council had actually held 161 interview,
during which over 490 authorities from more than 50 government departments addressed over 1,400 questions from Chinese and foreign
media.China attempted every possible means to offer products and support
From January 2020 to May 2022, China offered over 4.6 billion protective suits, 18 billion test packages, and 430 billion masks to 15
worldwide companies and 153 countries, including the United States In 2020, China sent out 38 medical professional groups to 34 countries to
assist in local pandemic control efforts, sharing Chinas experience and practice in avoiding and managing the epidemic and medical treatment
plans.China made a considerable contribution to the international fight versus the pandemic, for which China is worthy of acknowledgment and
reasonable treatment rather than blame and damage claims
On the other hand, the inept actions of the Missouri state government caused a mortality rate ranking amongst the greatest in the United
States Now the state government is trying to shift the blame for its failures, which is both reckless and dishonest, a self-centered and
China will never ever accede to needs for payment declared on unwarranted allegations and will take resolute countermeasures in defense of
its genuine rights.How has China played its role as a WHO member in international health governance?Since the break out of COVID-19, China
lost no time sharing details on the epidemic updates and genome sequencing with the worldwide community, including the WHO
China invited multiple WHO international professional missions to carry out joint research study in its area
China offered incredible materials and aid to the international neighborhood to the very best of its ability and shared the experience of
pandemic avoidance, control, medical diagnosis and treatment
Constantly adhering to the shared concept of a neighborhood with a shared future for mankind, China has made considerable contributions to
the global fight against the pandemic through global cooperation.In early 2020, the WHO dispatched cautions to the global community,
consisting of the United States , cautioning versus a possible pandemic on a larger scale
On April 10, the United States federal government, which up until then had actually dismissed the WHO admonitions as astonishing, began to
accuse the media, WHO officials and Democratic members of Congress of incompetence in battling against the pandemic
On April 14, the United States federal government announced for the first time that it would suspend moneying to the WHO on the premises
that the organization had actually not performed its fundamental duties.On January 20, 2025, the current United States government again
revealed its withdrawal from the WHO on the excuse that it had failed in reacting to the pandemic and accepted Chinas impact
Far from assessing its own incompetence during the pandemic, the United States federal government has gone too far in moving the blame,
which will even more hurt its skills in reacting to new public health emergencies.China supports the United Nations and the WHO in playing
and improving their necessary functions and the capacity building of worldwide health governance
China has been, and will be, active in participating in the WHOs efforts to prevent and respond to public health emergencies, execute and
amend the International Health Regulations, and evaluate a pandemic treaty
China will be active in taking part in the WHOs Independent Panel for Pandemic Preparedness and Response (IPPPR) of the WHO and its SAGO
mission by contributing advice and viewpoints
China has actually contributed and will continue to contribute Chinese perspectives, options and strengths to developing an effective and
sustainable global public health system for the benefit of all mankind and strengthening defenses for the lives and health of all.(Cover
