TAIPEI (Taiwan News) As many experts question the veracity of China's statistics for the Wuhan coronavirus outbreak, Tencent over the weekend seems to have inadvertently released what is potentially the actual number of infections and deaths, which were astronomically higher than official figures.
On late Saturday evening (Feb. 1), Tencent, on its webpage titled "Epidemic Situation Tracker", showed confirmed cases of novel coronavirus (2019nCoV) in China as standing at 154,023, 10 times the official figure at the time. It listed the number of suspected cases as 79,808, four times the official figure.
The number of cured cases was only 269, well below the official number that day of 300. Most ominously, the death toll listed was 24,589, vastly higher than the 300 officially listed that day.
Moments later, Tencent updated the numbers to reflect the government's "official" numbers that day. Netizens noticed that Tencent has on at least three occasions posted extremely high numbers, only to quickly lower them to government-approved statistics.
Netizens also noticed that each time the screen with the large numbers appears, it shows a comparison with the previous day's data which demonstrates a "reasonable" incremental increase, much like comparisons of official numbers. This has led some netizens to speculate that Tencent has two sets of data, the real data and "processed" data.
Some are speculating that a coding problem could be causing the real "internal" data to accidentally appear. Others believe that someone behind the scenes is trying to leak the real numbers.
However, the "internal" data held by Beijing may not reflect the true extent of the epidemic. According to multiple sources in Wuhan, many coronavirus patients are unable to receive treatment and die outside of hospitals.
A severe shortage of test kits also leads to a lower number of diagnosed cases of infection and death. In addition, there have been many reports of doctors being ordered to list other forms of death instead of coronavirus to keep the death toll artificially low.
What the heck? I copied it, saved it, and wanted to thank you for the info and had to move down a post because that one, in answer to my query “doesn’t exist on this servier.” Eh???
Thanks. I’ll remember that! :o]
That is interesting! How does that work?
You have FReepmail.
It works as a surfactant that sluffs off all the gunk that tends to stick to your lung surfaces. It will get rid of stuff that has been in there for years, and for the first time in a long time, I can actually take a deep breath!
I had been on a nebulizer with three different kinds of meds, including a steroid, and got pneumonia, and was sick as a dog for a month.
After two weeks on coconut oil capsules my lungs were free and clear and the doctor signed off on it for my driver’s license. I’ve been on them 18 months, now, and what has been going around as a nasty croupy cough was a minor chest irritation for me. :o]
But don’t thank me...thank my sister...she’s the one that told me about them. I can’t thank her enough!
Lots of PLA Chinese in Africa, "helping" them by setting up the infrastructure they will need to strip mine the whole continent...
What coconut oil capsules do you take?
China has NO good reason to publish the real numbers.
It’s not necessarily a communist thing - I doubt the United States would publish the real numbers either. The difference is that the Chinese press does not have the ability to do any investigations. On a politically-neutral issue, the American press can investigate.
"Mortality of the Spanish Flu Pandemic. The global mortality rate from the 1918/1919 pandemic is not known, but it is estimated that 10% to 20% of those who were infected died."
At 24,589 dead out of 154,023 infected, those figures come in about dead center...
Ditto here. Philippians 4:7 :)
50 cent’s little brother
I take Nature’s Answer, Extra Virgin Coconut Oil” 1.55g or 1550mg of Lauric acid. I take four of them a day, and they are HUGH, but they work!
I think they are about $13 on iHerb.com
“No western societies are announcing recoveries, none, its all hush hush ... Probably a bad sign”
It’s like it gone to radio silence. WHO knows.
Thank you !!
Tencent is a huge deal over there. One of their biggest social media companies.
We need a WHO meme - like Baghdad Bob saying there is no pandemic
Don’t thank me, please! Thank redhead. She’s the one that told me about it. I’m just passing it forward because its the only way I know to thank her for helping my lungs! I had Pertussis as a tot, so my lungs were scarred from the outset.
Now I can breathe, thanks to her!!
“Actually 16% fatalities are 2 times (or more) those of the 1918 flu.”
My original source for the 10-20% mortality rate was from influenzavirus.net which was copied by Wikipedia. Looking further I think the best source is from CDC that quotes a paper by Taubenberger and Morens ( https://wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/12/1/pdfs/05-0979.pdf).
The mortality rate they quote for the 1918 flu is 2.5% which would be similar to the official rate quoted by the Chinese govt. and 5X lower than the number given by Tencent.
I’ve seen anywhere from 4% to 10% for the 1918 flu.
Probably lots of unrecorded deaths and people who were infected but never got sick.
What disturbs me is that the chicoms are probaly at least 10 times off of the total sick/dead numbers, their stated mortality might also be 10 times off. Ie, 20% instead of 2%. 20% would explain the batshit behavior of CCP.
