7. They....like our intelligence services, already knew....

...China had a major problem on their hands, but weren't forthcoming. Russia sealed its border with China well in advance and started quarantining people right away. Putin even went into self quarantine to avoid any chance of getting it. But it was still too little, too late. Of course, Trump ignored the intelligence warnings.

They probably have a vaccine similar, if not exact, like ours that's being developed. However, Russia isn't afraid to rush things without enough testing. The way they look at it, the final test will be on the populace.

Well, when you put it like that....! Karadeniz Aug 2020 #1
