A crematorium worker in Wuhan, China, confirmed that officials are working at an alarming pace to burn the bodies of the deceased in the city amid the coronavirus outbreak.
"We need to pick up bodies when they call us. Every day, we need at least 100 body bags," a crematorium worker named Mr. Yun told the Epoch Times. We cant stop because we cant leave the bodies outside for a long time."
Wuhan officials were accused of cremating the dead in secret last week, and Mr. Yun claimed the rumors are true as China adopts "draconian measures" to treat the outbreak.
Dramatic videos from Wuhan posted to social media apps this week show scenes of sorrow and panic as medical officials and police allegedly chase infected people through the streets and force patients, against their will, into ambulances headed to the hospitals. Other videos show officials spraying what is believed to be disinfectant spray from cement trucks onto deserted streets.
China has turned sports halls and exhibition centers in Wuhan into 11 temporary hospitals to treat the epidemic that has killed almost 500 people although figures from the Chinese government have been contested by Western outlets.
Republican Arkansas Sen. Tom Cotton has called for a travel ban to China and noted that the "only biosafety level four super laboratory that works with the world's most deadly pathogens" is located in Wuhan.
Three airplanes have returned U.S. citizens from China in the past week, and one of the children aboard the first flight is being monitored for coronavirus after developing a fever.
And this is just ONE crematorium...
I have zero doubt the Chinese are under-reporting this virus. but I would like to know what would a normal death rate be for a population of 11 million??
Me too.
but I would like to know what would a normal death rate be for a population of 11 million??
Me too. Given the US population and death rate, about 83,000 of us die for every 11 million population each year.
No idea what the normal numbers are for China.
He said he had seen bad cases of flu routinely put on oxygen as part of standard treatment if they were ill enough to be hospitalized.
Anyone know if oxygen for hospitalized flu patients is unusual or fairly common?
We should quarantine Chicago too.
So if the one nurse who claimed there were 900,000 cases in China, that would be about 100,000 dead. Scarey!
So it may be even worse than the Tencent leaked number
That really doesn’t agree with the official Chinese government death toll numbers. 100 bodies a day in one city should really be pumping up the number of death numbers.
Oh, that would be bad for business and panic the Chinese people into thinking their government was not protecting them.
Never mind.
The people know the truth.
The government controls the Internet, cell phones and transportation.
The truth will get out eventually, after perhaps thousands of deaths and ghost town cities are torn down................
The death rate in china is about 7.7 people per 1.000 people per year.
(Look it up ,I did.)
Wuhan has 11,000,000 people, millions more than New York
11,000,000 divide by 1,000 times 7.7 dethe peer 1,ooo people equals 84,700 deaths a year to be expected in Wuhan.
Divide that by 365 days in a year equals 232 deaths a day normal in Wuhan.
So cremating 100 bodies a day may not be that unusual. -Tom
I’ve been hospitalized for pneumonia before and was on oxygen the whole time.
Not sure about flu.
If the article is correct and they are cremating 100 or so a day, its more than 500 people. The rather frenzied response of the government indicates something bigger than the annual flu is happening.

They (UN) only want the truth if it makes the US look bad. They wont dare mess with China.
Theyll use lies about the US as well.
They like China Chinese grunts in blue helmets confiscating Americans guns is their biggest wet dream.
If true, very very very scary. Best be prepared to shut yourself in for 3 to 4 weeks if it becomes a pandemic.
That explains the Iowa caucus returns.
All the camps in China is likely a death trap.

Under reporting staged (leftist lie)
Boxcars filled with corpses being hauled out of sight for mass burning is more likely.
Looking incompetent from top to bottom is fatal in CHiCom land
