President Donald Trump said he is "not happy with China" and suggested they are not being transparent about the number of virus-related deaths they've had in the country.

China confirmed long-held suspicions on Friday and acknowledged that the coronavirus death toll in the one-time epicenter city of Wuhan was nearly 50% higher than reported, amounting to more than 4,600.

"We don't have the most in the world, death's the most in the world has to be China. It's a massive country. It's gone through a tremendous problem with this," Trump said.

The new coronavirus causes mild or moderate symptoms for most people. For some, especially older adults and people with existing health problems, it can cause more severe illness or death.
