In the clip, the Lego figures represent China and the United States / Trump, and the story begins in December when China reports cases of a new type of pneumonia and quickly moves on to January:

– We have detected a new virus, says “China”.

– yes? it says “United States / Trump”.

“It is dangerous,” says China.

“It’s just a flu,” says the US. / Trump.

Last week, the United States repeatedly accused China of deliberately hiding how infectious the virus is. At the same time, they must have stocked up on medical supplies.

United States Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said until yesterday that they now have evidence, “great evidence,” that the coronavirus has spread from a Chinese laboratory and not from a wet market, as said.

Accused of lying

Editor Hu Xijin of the state newspaper Global Times accuses Twitter Twitter of basically lying.

“Don’t just say there is great evidence, Pompeo should show it to the world,” writes Xjin.

“By demanding an investigation at the laboratory in Wuhan, they are trying to create controversy and change the approach to mislead the American public,” he writes according to the New York Times.

However, not only the United States has demanded an international investigation into the origin of the virus in China. Australia and several other countries have also supported an investigation in which China cooperates with the outside world.

Something that China has shown no interest in.

The country’s ambassador to the UK told the BBC that “it does not lead to anything good.”

– We are fighting the virus at the moment, we are concentrating all our efforts on it. Why even talk about an investigation into this? Chen Wen tells the BBC.

Million views

The clip “It was once a virus” has been viewed about 1.2 million times since it was posted on YouTube. A site that is blocked for the Chinese population.

Lego commented on the clip saying they were not involved in the creation, writes Reuters.
