March 17, 2020 PolitiFact Confirms: Joe Biden is Sowing Fear, Spreading Misinformation About the Coronavirus Response

Joe Biden -- apparently lifting language from a false Facebook meme -- claimed that the Trump Administration rejected World Health Organization (WHO) coronavirus testing kits.

This is false, according to PolitiFact, which reports that "[t]he WHO never offered to sell test kits to the United States" and "[m]ultiple public health experts said that is not unusual" for the U.S. to develop its own test.

This isn't the first time Biden's misinformation campaign has been called out by fact checkers:

Biden falsely claimed that the Trump administration cut funding for the NIH and CDC, according to the Associated Press.



Biden also received four Pinocchios for a deceptively edited video pushing the debunked claim that President Trump called the coronavirus a "hoax."

While President Trump is demonstrating strong leadership in the middle of a public health crisis, Joe Biden is sowing fear and undermining America by spreading misinformation and trying to score cheap political points. What Biden is doing along with other Democrats and some members of the media is truly shameful.

Between these cynical attacks and Biden plagiarizing President Trump's coronavirus response plan, the contrast in leadership couldn't be clearer.
