China refutes U.S.'s 'groundless' accusations about coronavirus

Chinese Foreign Ministry's spokesperson Geng Shuang on Thursday refuted the "groundless" accusations made by certain U.S. politicians about China's 
handling of the coronavirus.

"We have repeatedly responded to remarks made by certain U.S. politicians accusing China of not doing a good job in preventing and controlling the disease. Their purpose is to cover up the facts about their failure to implement timely and effective disease prevention and control measures," Geng said, adding that such acts are not conducive to alleviating the COVID-19 challenges that have emerged in the country.
