The Chinese authorities are suspected of having announced a reduction in the number of deaths from the new coronavirus infection (Corona 19). 150,000 retirees suddenly ‘evaporate’ in Wuhan, Hubei province, which has been designated as the source of Corona 19.

Hong Kong’s Bin Fruit Daily reported on the 17th that, citing data from the Hubei Provincial Civil Government, the names of more than 150,000 people disappeared from the list of retirees over 80 in the first quarter of last year. This content was previously reported by Free Asia Broadcasting (RFA) for the first time.

The Binfruit Daily reported that local authorities prevented the media and the public from separately counting the number of funerals and burials held during this period. However, according to the results of the analysis of various official announcements by local activists, the number of cremation cases in Hubei province in the first quarter of last year was 410,000, about 40,000 more than in the same period last year ( 374,000). The number of cremation cases in the first quarter of 2018 was 360,000.

According to official statistics from the Chinese authorities, the cumulative number of corona deaths19 in Wuhan is 3,869. Even if it expands across China, this number only increases to 4,636.

In this regard, local activist Liu Jun estimated that at least five times more people died than the official announcement in Hubei province alone in the first quarter of last year. An academic who requested anonymity noted that “as we enter an aging society, the elderly population is increasing every year and it is by no means normal that the number of pension applicants has decreased rapidly.”

Previously, the Hong Kong South China Morning Post (SCMP) reported that a commemorative chrysanthemum fell in Wuhan this year in celebration of the Lunar New Year holiday. In China, after midnight on the first day of the lunar new year, there is a custom to burn incense and a wreath of white and yellow chrysanthemums to commemorate the souls of those who died last year.

The World Health Organization (WHO) said on the 14th: “We found a number of signs suggesting that there was a much more widespread infection in Wuhan than was previously known.” The WHO said that when the first Corona 19 outbreak was reported in Wuhan in December 2019, it had already been confirmed that 13 mutant viruses with different gene sequences had spread.
