China Hoarding Of PPE.

In January when Communist Red China was telling the world everything was under control they were also busy buying up PPE from around the world.

Then Communist Red China told US Companies (who were stupid enough to move their factories there) that they could no longer move products out of China.

Leading US manufacturers of medical safety gear told the White House that China prohibited them from exporting their products from the country as the coronavirus pandemic mounted — even as Beijing was trying to “corner the world market” in personal protective equipment

Executives from 3M and Honeywell told US officials that the Chinese government in January began blocking exports of N95 respirators, booties, gloves and other supplies produced by their factories in China

China paid the manufacturers their standard wholesale rates, but prohibited the vital items from being sold to anyone else

Around the same time that China cracked down on PPE exports, official data posted online shows that it imported 2.46 billion pieces of “epidemic prevention and control materials” between Jan. 24 and Feb. 29

The gear, valued at nearly $1.2 billion, included more than 2 billion masks and more than 25 million “protective clothing” items that came from countries in the European Union, as well as Australia, Brazil and Cambodia
