Residents of Wuhan, China claim to have heard the screams of coronavirus victims being burned alive in the local funeral home crematorium. While there is no official confirmation of this happening, it could account for the gap between the government's admitted 3,000+ deaths and the seeming disappearance of more than 20,000 individuals from the town since the epidemic began.
On the other hand, Tedros Adhanom, head of the World Health Organization credited "the Chinese Government's extreme intervention for crushing the epidemic. They didn't hesitate to confine people in their homes, even going so far as to weld them inside if necessary. Did they burn anybody alive? Possibly, but sometimes harsh methods are warranted by dire circumstances. So I wouldn't be so hasty to condemn them if they did."
"I ask that critics compare China's firm approach with the weak actions of Trump," Adhanon urged. "Trump merely asked people to wash their hands and socially distance themselves. He didn't order them to do anything. He even suggested that patients and doctors should have the freedom to try unproven therapies. What he should have done is made everyone wait until a vaccine is ready and mandate that everyone take it, like his adviser Dr. Fauci wants to do."
The earliest a vaccine is expected to be available for combating the COVID-19 virus is twelve to eighteen months. Based on past experience with flu vaccines, it is unlikely that a vaccine for COVID-19 would be effective for most recipients.

@John, this posts is uncouth.
Even IF the high officials in the PRC were this monstrous, the average Chinese is not.
Think about it. If the government asked you to burn someone alive and then shut up about it would you? If they asked that it be done 1000’s of times could they hide that?
I am not the only one who posts here with relatives (By marriage) in China. In my case Wuhan! This is simply not happening. It is on par with the conspiracy idiots that claim 100,000 US children a year are sacrificed to Satan in underground cavers in New Mexico.
This is the fakest of fake news it is not worthy of the Democratic Underground much less here.
Satire is supposed to amuse. I gotta tell ya, that title misses that by a long shot.
“If they asked that it be done 1000’s of times”
From what I read from the original article it just happened every so often. There was no gov’t push to burn people alive. They thought people were dead when they were not. Medical mistakes.
You get this worked up defending the CCP over a satire article? Wow.
Don’t let the masses of CCP defenders or the mass of uncouth deter the satire. I like the added WHO part.
Since it didn't matter while they murdered close to 100,000,000 of their own citizens 50-60 years ago, while should this barbecue upset anyone?
Particularly here in the U.S., since millions of tiny living babies are slaughtered every year for political purposes, why should Wuhan ovens disturb us?

I saw them do it to a herd of infected pigs.
China has a totalitarian government. The truth is bad enough without making things up.
I’m not defending the PRC; I’m defending the truth.
The allegation was made, in this post and several others last week, that China was burning hundreds or thousands of people alive because they were out of hospital beds. There was an article posted on FR saying as much and people replied with a post that said, in effect, “Well I would expect a communist government to be this brutal”
It is total BS. Not even North Korea would do something like this. The only way the Germans got away with the holocaust was because of widespread antisemitism. They didn’t gas 6 million German NAZI’s because they got sick.
The allegation, satirical or not, is simply offensive.
This kind of allegation is simply not helpful
Yeah it’s so offensive to make satire about the brutal nature of the CCP. SCREW YOU YOU CCP TROLL.
The CCP are monsters. They proved it by dumping this virus around the world. They knew damn well what was occurring and the chose to infect the world instead of taking it. Fckin Chinese are dirty cheating money grubbing power hungry midgets. I assume your Chinese. It’s the only way you can respond to this satire article worried about the integrity of the CCP being accused or joked about killing innocent people. We all know the CCP kills innocent people all the time. They are a authoritarian communist oligarchy. Idiot.
I wouldn’t go gently on the CCP—and this is satire, with WHO getting a justified needling.
I don’t know if the commie rat bastards in China, are burning people alive, or not. Maybe a few here and there, but I believe they certainly have the mentality to do that. The Great Leap Forward comes to mind. Who knows how many millions of Chinese died in that infamous period? I don’t believe they all died of starvation either. I am sure there are people who probably defend the Great Leap Forward. I am not one of them.
