Fox & Friends co-host Brian Kilmeade said China should apologise for the coronavirus this morning because “they started it”.

The breakfast show, which is thought to be a favourite of president Donald Trump, discussed the issue today as the US death toll rose to 26.

Kilmeade said: “The most encouraging things happening out of China who started this whole thing.

“They were batting a thousand cases a day. They had very few. They had 14 field hospitals close yesterday. 70 per cent of the Chinese cases, everybody had recovered. Only 19 new infections. So last week they started recording this. It was 2,000 new infections a day. Now down to 19. It shows you can get on top of this.”

They started it and have yet to apologise

Co-host Steve Doocey added, “But, more importantly, President Xi [Jinping] is going to Wuhan.

Kilmeade stated, “He was there yesterday.”

“Yeah, exactly. And the whole thing is to show that their measures at containing have actually worked,” Doocey responded.

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
