SHANGHAI, April 12 (Reuters) - Mainland China reported 99 new confirmed coronavirus cases on April 11, including 97 involving travelers from overseas, up from a total of 46 new cases a day earlier, China's National Health Commission said on Sunday.— Vincent Lee (@Rover829) April 12, 2020
I don't buy China's numbers, but my guess is the official number of cases going up means the real number of cases is going up https://t.co/tXqEifae8H— Steve Lookner (@lookner) April 12, 2020
The claim that 97 out of 99 infections were foreigners is laughable, as is the claim that there were only 99 new infections. But claiming all the infections are a result of "outsiders" justifies shutting down travel while they work on eliminating infections internally.
