The dam dems and media are trying to use this as a means of getting at President Trump. He is to smart for those idiots and unlike the dems he cares about the American people and loves this country.

I don't know about the numbers, but we have offices and staff in China, and they say that restrictions are being relaxed and life is quickly returning to normal. I believe them.
