In Denmark, it appears that many, that the last three weeks have been tough.
Favoritrestauranten has been closed, you have had to care for your children at home, and so it has also not been allowed to keep your birthday.
But how would you have it with, to the health authorities suddenly knocked on your door and took your temperature?
they took you by the arm and dragged you away, if you measured more than 39 degrees? Or that they welded a rod in front of your door, so you couldn’t get out?
You think that it sounds like something from a movie, but nonetheless, it is just some of it, as citizens of the chinese city of Wuhan have been the spectators of.
In these easter day sets the B. T. namely, a focus on the place where it all started: Wuhan.
For how they tried to contain the infection in the chinese city? And can we possibly rely on the figures that have come from the dictatorial country?
Some suggest that the answer is no to the last question, but it takes us later.
First and foremost, we need to look at some of the videos and stories that appeared on social media in January and February, when coronavirussen scattered in Wuhan.
It began with videos of body bags on street corners and in parked kassevogne, while chinese citizens also shared live pictures of the people who was taken away by the authorities against their will.
But the chinese people did not for the seriousness of his eyes, as a new type of videos popped up, which you can see below.
In an attempt to keep the ill citizens away from the street, selected local authorities in Wuhan namely, to take violently drastic methods in use.
For what is easier than to block the people inside, if you don’t want to leave their home?
Video after the video appeared, where officials were in the process of welding the doors to the lejlighedskomplekse, or where chinese citizens suddenly could not open their front door, because there was set a great iron bar for.
These videos occurred in the beginning of February, and ever since, we have heard less and less from Wuhan, as the city was in a total state of emergency.
the death toll was milder and milder in China, while european nations – strongly led by Italy – in record time experienced far worse conditions than in Wuhan.
in other words, on paper mind you.
if you know the chinese regime, one can also ask themselves:
Should you rely on the fact that there are only approximately 2,500 died in Wuhan, when one was so long to get a handle on the virus, as it was the case?
the Number is particularly small when compared with countries such as Italy and Spain, which have, respectively, the button is 17,000 and 14,000 died.
And the answer is also no, if you are to believe more foreign media.
Let’s start with the independent chinese media Caixin.
Caixin has set itself to investigate the matter and have found out that only one of Wuhans many crematoria have received no less than 5,000 urns ago virusudbruddet.
It is twice as many as the official corona virus-death toll in Wuhan.
But how far from the truth it is so, when the chinese government tells the outside world that the approximately 2,500 have died in Wuhan?
The more media also bid on the.
the radio Station Radio Free Asia has made a calculation, which is based on Wuhans 84 crematoria working around the clock.
based on how long it takes to burn a corpse,, the station has figured himself for a total death toll of 46.800.
“It can’t be true. Krematorieovnene has been going around the clock, so how can so few people be dead,” said a Wuhan citizen in the connection to the Radio Free Asia.
another death toll that abound on the social media, 42,000.
Washington Post writes that the so-called ‘onlinedetektiver’ out from the pictures on the social media have figured out that krematorierne from 23. march 5. april has given the 3,500 urns every day, which is equivalent to 42,000 on the 12 days.
It is clear that not all the deaths can be related to coronavirussen, but critics nevertheless believe that the figures make clear that the Wuhans official death toll of just over 2,500 is far from the truth.
But from the Chinese side, it gets flatly rejected.
According to a document from The White House is the us government namely quite sure that China has lied about the death toll, and it has also acquired several high-level u.s. diplomats to shoot with sharply defined against the asian country.
Last Wednesday said president Donald Trump, for example:
“Their numbers seem to be a bit on the bright side. And I’m nice when I say it,” like vice president Mike Pence also has been tough against the chinese.
It was Thursday, Hua Chunying, who is the spokesperson from the chinese udenrigsministerie, to deny that you have adorned on the numbers, as she called the U.s. accusations of “shameless”.
