Coronavirus: Satellite image shows rise in sulfur dioxide levels over Wuhan hinting at mass cremations
meaww.com ^ | 02/10/2020 | Kunal Dey

In recent days, satellite maps have displayed alarming levels of SO2 mass around Wuhan — the Chinese city suspected to be the origin of the deadly virus. Furthermore, high levels of SO2 were also found over the city of Chongqing which is also under quarantine.

Large amounts of sulfur dioxide are released when bodies are cremated or when medical waste is incinerated, scientists say. But a Twitter user raised an alarm after finding the elevated levels of the compound on a weather app, suggesting that it could be the result of dead bodies being burned on the outskirts of the city.

The Chinese government has ordered bodies of coronavirus victims to be cremated immediately upon death. They have also decreed that funerals must be low profile in order to prevent large public gatherings.

Earlier this month, China's National Health Commission advised that the bodies should be "cremated close by and immediately."

A screenshot from a live map by Czech-based weather service Windy shows SO2 levels in Wuhan at a staggering 1,350 micrograms per cubic meter (µg/m3) over the weekend. To put things in perspective, a dosage of 500 µg/m3 of SO2 should not be exceeded for more than 10 minutes, as per the World Health Organization (WHO). A 15-minute exposure to 533 µg/m3 sulfur dioxide is considered to be 'high' by the UK government.

A 100 pound human contains a bit less than 5 ounces of sulphur.

Though it is interesting that Chunking is also showing large sulfur dioxide releases, in that it was the number one destination of people leaving Wuhan at the start of the Lunar Holiday.

I’ve been searching for information about confirmed case in Chunking but there simply isn’t much about Chunking in the news.

“Sounds a little nutty. Hubei province has over 50,000,000 people. That’s a couple thousand people dying per day normally. Unless I’m wrong, cremation is the norm in China, isn’t it?”

Except the rise in sulfur dioxide levels has increased substantially in recent days compared to historical levels, and it just happens to be in the vicinity of the outbreak’s epicenter, Wuhan.

“Is there really no end to this climate change fraud”?

This has nothing to do with Blobull Warming and the article didn’t even hint at that.

Bring Out Your Dead

Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.

The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.

So far the false positive rate is 100%.

At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.

*sigh* Such is life, and death...

If a quarantine saves just one child's life, it's worth it.

Silly article. Sulfur dioxide is one of the most common industrial pollutants.

Agreed, also see Zhang Fei's topic comments (I'll just add you to the ping).

Are you referring to the people that are screaming and fighting off from being carried away? Perhaps that’s what they are afraid of.

Tin foil hat stuff, indeed. 50 million people staying home all day in the middle of winter using lots of extra electricity, so all the extra dirty Chinese coal fired electrical plants are burning more of the high sulphur coal they use over there.
