Yeah, I just do not see the U.S. responsibility to help the Chinese when the Chinese have been less than honest through this entire process...

Well, we don't have any obligation to obviously, but I would much rather help them how we can than tell them we hope their people all die. That's just not something I would personally ever consider telling anyone. It would make me feel like frickin Hitler or something.

I feel like if people are hurting, someone should help them. Unfortunately for these people they can't expect help from their own Government because it's their own Government is the ones hurting them. It's outrageous and the America I grew up envisioning is better than wishing death upon millions.

ETA: furthermore, something like a deadly virus is something that can easily end up affecting people outside of China. Right now it seems to be containing itself to the Asian population, but theres nothing saying this thing couldn't mutate and jump over to everyone else.

These sorts of outbreaks should actually be combatted by every country in the world that is capable of helping.
