US president Donald Trump has claimed that the "incompetence of China" is responsible for the coronavirus pandemic's "mass worldwide killing".
In a Tweet that has already been retweeted more than 6,000 times, Mr Trump said: "Some wacko in China just released a statement blaming everybody other than China for the Virus which has now killed hundreds of thousands of people. "Please explain to this dope that it was the “incompetence of China”, and nothing else, that did this mass Worldwide killing!" The move comes less than a week after China launched a scathing attack on US President Donald Trump when he threatened to "cut off the whole relationship" between the two countries due to the coronavirus outbreak.
