US intelligence officials

Would that be the Crossfire Hurricane bunch? Brennan's butt buddies?

If it is a fake story, which I think it is given the original source, then there are no intelligence officials at all.

This is not a fact check this is a push of CCP propaganda

Did you read the article, check the links, or read my initial comment? Did you think it over and consider if the source or story is credible?

Do you really believe U.S. Intel leaks classified reports to bottom ranked websites, where at the time of this post most of its web traffic is from Ghana?

This is a case of a fake story making the rounds on the fringe of the Internet, changing a little each time.

I agree. That is far more believable. These people were probably “spreading disinformation” and had their phones cancelled, and they have been rounded up for re-education, or will be.

With a population of 1.4 Billion, 21M is 'only' .015%

IMO, that's a realistic number of delinquencies in monthly payment charges.

Derek Scissors at AEI used China’s own numbers of Wuhan and Hubei province exits in Dec/Jan to calculate 2.9mm cases — at the low end — and 136,000 deaths.

136k deaths I can believe. More than 2MM deaths? Unlikely.
