I can’t believe China would lie about such a thing.
The one calculation that you can’t inject into this....the normal monthly deaths in Wuhan (just in general, from cancer and murder to food poisoning and old age). With a city of 11-million, you’d figure at least 5,000 folks would have passed away monthly without the aid of the virus.
“COVID-10??”
I don’t have a problem believing China lied, but these stories
don’t really get specific. They mention what things seem like
but don’t mention actual confirmed numbers.
It’s not that I believe the government. It’s just that I am
asked to sign on to other numbers (guesses) I can’t confirm.
It really bothers me when folks curse that the government for
not being forthcoming, and then they ask me to sign on to any
old “seems like” story that pops up.
I can’t verify the government’s story.
I can’t verify these stories.
If I’m not going to sucker for the government’s story, why
would I want to sucker for someone else’s story?
One of the things that has bothered me the most about what
has gone on, is that everyone trashed the government, but
were then willing to take anything offered up as proof positive.
The only thing was, there was no proof on that side either.
first nine topics at link pertain to the Wuhan cremations:

“Estimates are of 40,000 dead in Wuhan alone, over the course of the pandemic.”
That’s a start. I wonder how many there died of the flu last year?
Estimates are essentially fake news
made up, untrue
Communist governments lie. Oh wait, all governments lie.

China needs to pay a serious economic price to the globe after all of this is over, not only in starting, concealing and facilitating the spread of the pandemic but in continued intentional misdirection in data analysis to the rest of the world hampering its fight against the pandemic they started. They are not a first world democratic nation and they should not be treated as such. Return them to an agrarian society where they belong under communist rule.
Because China lies to try to cover up it’s inability to coordinate any sort of actual solution...now the propaganda is aimed as much at her own people as it is to the rest of the world...
On the Johns Hopkins Coronavirus Info site, for three days China was claiming ‘no new cases’ and their number stood at 81, 897. They have upped it by 99 this morning. China is OBVIOUSLY lying. But I have Leftist friends who are claiming that China has beaten this virus and we should follow their model.
Ignorance abounds in the USA. I WISH everyone would just tell the truth out there.
Thanks, Zhang Fei! Good counts, good estimates, considering the many eyewitness reports coming out of Wuhan over the months. So sorry for the overly indebted folks who lost money from the disaster that they didn’t plan or save for.
Political class services/government interests are lying here in the States and helping to spread the disease, too, BTW.
