As of 23 December 2021, Johns Hopkins University's “trusted” Coronavirus Resource Center still records “Confirmed Cases” of a mere 113,269, and “Deaths” as 4,849.

Some Freepers “trusted” Worldometers.info reports something similar.
4,636 “official” deaths in China over the last two years.

Taking the larger tally:
China through 23 months — ( 4,849 deaths since beginning of pandemic / 1,439,323,776 Chinese citizens ) x 100 = 0.0033 %
0.0033 %
So when reading “news” like this, one considers whether the source is to be trusted. Trusted like JHU’s 4,849 death tally for China, or Worldometers’ 4,636 death tally, both in a same range for a nation of 1.4 billion.
“The World is One News is an Indian multinational English language news channel headquartered in New Delhi. It is owned by the Essel Group and is part of the Zee Media network of channels.”
One may be sure the message is “lockdown” — essentially a quarentine of an entire locale or even nation — is a good thing.
The same message came from Imperial College, as from other “trusted” sources like the CDC, and many US state and city governments.
So all one need reflect on is what this “news” and the “official” data from JHU and Worldometer as well as the CDC really tells.
My view is that it tells “cripple your society” with totalitarian measures under the guise of “caring.”
Trust India's WION News? Trust Johns Hopkins? Trust Worldometer? Trust the CDC? Then all the above is trustworthy, as some post in Free Republic threads.
This is why I am skeptical. The data alone shows huge anomalies, inexplicable errors and assertions multiplied by assumptions. And preplanning....
I bet the lockdown is real. The danger, however, is staged.
