Senator Cornyn says that China is to blame for the coronavirus and other pandemic viruses that have occurred in recent years. You have to chuckle at his reasoning in this video:

Factual Correctness will never go away. It trumps political correctness, IMO.

Isn't the whole world going to sue China for damages after this fiasco is over? I was wondering the same thing. People will naturally blame China for this since it originated there and the government there did nothing to stop it. Won't the world someday hold an international tribunal court to sue China and make it reimburse the rest of the world for damages caused by the pandemic? Someone has to be held accountable right? And plus China has plenty of money to reimburse the world with.

The only thing is that China suffered as well so I think the world will simply think of China as reckless, irresponsible, and more dangerous than its prior reputation as the major polluter of the world.

Governments have to agree to the suing process.

Politically, it is not wise to issue such a statement, IMO.
