China failed to disclose coronavirus outbreak to WHO in timely manner -Pompeo

Speaking at a State Department news conference, U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo also accused China of failing to report human-to-human transmission of the virus "for a month until it was in every province inside of China."

The coronavirus, believed to have emerged in a market in the central Chinese city of Wuhan, was first reported by China to the WHO on Dec. 31.
