China is not to be trusted when it comes to coronavirus

PM
One example of official numbers not corresponding with even official records is the case of the February 25th infection toll from Shandong province. The Chinese government reported 775 infections, but leaked internal documents revealed 1,992 infections had been recorded by hospitals.
As early as January, whistleblowers purporting to be hospital workers from Wuhan took to WeChat—China’s WhatsApp and Facebook alternative—to plead for help from the international community. One video which shocked the internet claimed to be from an extremely distressed nurse who overheard Doctors speculating the infection rate was over “100,000.”
We know more about the #coronavirus now. It is 3 times as contagious as a common flu, and deadly to about 3% of those who catch it.    ......
One funeral director noted that the amount of coronavirus victims was being drastically underreported by disregarding those who died from the virus in their homes, or outside of official quarantines.In addition to death and infection tolls which don’t quite add up—coincidences continue to emerge that shock and confuse."
