the CDC said if was spreadable in january........ but trump did nothing until march.....
trump loses argument

as for other blames towards china
china shut down its border promptly and grounded its planes in january. made hospitals by february

trump had to make an order HIMSELF to organise repatriation flights to get americans out of china because china wasnt sending them(china were trying to keep it from spreading)
trump however also did not then do any self isolation or track and trace on those repatriates when they got to america.
trump also didnt do anything precautionary until march..

so while people try to spread myths about it being a man made plan to release a virus into a wetmarket(sorry it wasnt) but while idiots try to push that myth. the facts that china closed borders and stopped the spread at their end. and trump override that precaution.. is all on trump.. not china

the reason UK government is not pushing the blame china game is because UK government realise their mistakes of doing repatriation flights

it would have been far cheaper to just give 50,000 americans an extended vacation in china. fully paid. than to have just brought them back to america and set them free to spread it

@franky1 your arguments make sense because most of the countrys have refused to call it Chinese virus, and most if not all countrys are guilty of bringing their people back and letting them roam free in January or February end. Also Trump knowns that if he stops putting blame on China, then the blame will automatically shift on his ineffectiveness to deal with the virus, hence I dont expect him to stop targeting China over this virus anytime soon.

I agree with you there, seems like this is a political stance and particularly with the elections approaching. Yet, to some degree he does have a point in that China did not alert the world sooner.
