Caijing is one of the most reputable outlets in China. Their article on the #coronavirus was censored today. It claims significant underreporting of both cases & deaths, especially among the elderly. Here it is: archive.is/ObawP Translation: translate.google.com/transla…

Key points: - some deaths being recorded as "general pneumonia" - lack of test kits - people going home to die - 7 hospitals with "no beds" Most importantly: "the number of confirmed and fatal cases that people can see...does not fully reflect the full picture of the epidemic"

If half the claims in this article are true, #nCoV2019 seems to have completely overloaded Wuhan's healthcare system. It appears particularly deadly for the elderly. But this 45 year old had to be anesthetized and intubated in order to breathe.

The elderly? And hiding it??? Is the Chinese government trying to fix their demographic problem?

How are you defining “significant”?
Replying to @balajis
tl;dr Only people who are admitted to hospitals are officially counted in the death toll. Therefore nobody, currently, has accurate info about true mortality rate. Could be 20%, could be .1% Totally unreliable. @DrEricDing #coronavirus

Does anyone really think China would be honest with its reporting? This soulless government does not care about doing what is best for people but only what it thinks is best for it’s government.

A lot of suspicion was there on this already. They seem to have kept it under wraps for nearly 3 weeks. Chinese tourists had already been vacationing the world over

This is bad...The whistleblowers were even jailed for "spreading misinformation"...They warned against #coronavirus a month ago, but they were censored. There is no transparency at all.

People suddenly collapsed. A man found dead at the scene. Cases found in different areas in Hong Kong. This symptom is similar with that of #ebola. As Pig Ebola erupted in China last year, any scientists have studied the association between #WuhanPneumonia and Ebola?

If this is what can be expected in places it has spread to outside of China, there will be no other news that will be relevant #NothingElseMatters

FYI facebook is not allowing this link to be shared. I’ve tried 4x and get this message. The First message I got was that the article did not meet community standards

It’s SOP to under report to avoid panic Happens everywhere in the world It’s the right thing to do Flip side: if actual numbers were reported, and the public panics, the consequences could be catastrophic and worse than if numbers were under reported.

Don't expect from opaque Chinese administration to reveal the facts, they treat their citizens nothing more than machines, they will dump it without regret. Sympathize with lovely Chinese people May God save them from #CoronavirusOutbreak

Reminds me of the HK police reported protest numbers. They only count people along the approved routes not the actual number of people protesting lolz🤦🏻‍♂️

How do you know it was censored? I mean, it's entirely believable that it was, but how do you know?

Thank you for this link - alarming that this coverup is not being more widely reported. Feel terrible for those having to suffer without proper care

Yes, very detailed and long. A good primer.

Unfortunate, I'll assume the government think as long as it gets it under control, it doesn't really matter what the actual numbers are. Soviet era mindset if that's the case. Image over truth.
