Official and unofficial information about those who died from coronavirus

Official information about the infected and the dead

According to official figures, the number of people infected with the Chinese coronavirus is in the thousands. More specifically, the total number of people who have been diagnosed with coronavirus has reached 170,000. At the same time, almost 80 thousand people are considered cured of this virus and its complications. As for the death toll, it currently stands at more than 6.5 thousand people.

It is worth noting that at the moment the rate of spread of the disease has increased in particular, this applies to Europe. If in China the peak of the epidemic has already ended and temporarily open hospitals for the treatment of coronavirus are beginning to close there, then the inhabitants of Europe will only have to really face this invisible enemy.

Experts explain this by the fact that China and other Asian countries have already experienced the effects of a similar SARS virus in the early 2000s. Therefore, Asian countries turned out to be more prepared to deal with COID-19 than European countries.

“The rate of spread of COID-19 in Europe far exceeds the rate of infection of the Chinese population. Until recently, the total number of cases reached 118,000 people, most of whom were Chinese. Now, according to experts, within a week, due to the active spread of the virus in Europe, the total number of people infected with the new virus will exceed 200,000 people.”

Who spoke of 90 thousand dead

A few weeks after the appearance in the world media of information about the beginning of the epidemic of a new virus in China, a rather resonant video was published on the network, which spoke of 90,000 deaths from COID-19. This video, which showed a man wearing a doctor's gown and mask, made a lot of noise on the Internet, especially since the Chinese authorities published completely different figures. Therefore, many people began to have doubts about the veracity of official statistics.

After the publication and distribution of this video on the network, journalists began to conduct their own investigations in order to understand how the information voiced in this video is true.

Apparently, the video is really a doctor and the video itself was filmed in Wuhan. True, the doctor is not talking about 90,000 dead, but about the total number of infected people. Such confusion arose due to the specific pronunciation of the doctor. Therefore, some people heard in her words information about deaths, and not about the number of people infected with a new virus.

“Despite the fact that this news is, in fact, a fake that arose due to a mistranslation, as well as the news that 50,000 thousand have died from COID-19 in China, this infection still poses a serious threat. ”

Where did the data on 2.8 million infected and 112,000 dead come from?

“Informal Chinese intelligence sources reported that as of January 23, China has 2.8 million infected and 112,000 people who have died from the new COVID-19 virus. The bodies of the dead are delivered to specially created landfills, where they are burned. There are no traditional funerals for these 112,000 deaths. This information is confirmed by employees of waste incineration enterprises. So far, the Chinese government has placed under strict quarantine 11 major cities with a total population of nearly 30 million people. Not only doctors will have to fight the virus, but also the soldiers of the Chinese People's Army, who have received special equipment and biological protection suits. The Chinese army promised the local government to win the war against the virus.”

This text was published on the website "The Hal Turner Radio Show", which is the personal block of one of the most popular right-wing politicians in the United States, Harold Turner. On his website, fakes have already been repeatedly published, the purpose of which was to attract the attention of people who do not trust official data and the words of the government.

This text is an ordinary invention and fantasy of the author of the blog. The content of this news has been repeatedly refuted in the American and European media. Therefore, you should not trust any "insider" information published on unpopular Internet resources that seek to gain popularity and catch hype even on deaths and illnesses.

Is it worth believing Stepan Demura about coronavirus

Stepan Demura is a well-known Russian business consultant who gained popularity online during the sharp depreciation of the ruble in 2014-2015. At that time, he predicted that for one dollar you would have to pay at least 200 rubles. Sometimes his forecasts were more discouraging, and he claimed that the dollar would soon be worth 500 and even 1000 rubles. As you can see, his predictions did not come true. Therefore, it is worth treating Demura's words regarding the coronavirus and its impact on the global economy with healthy skepticism.

Demura is the same as other bloggers, journalists and politicians. Tries to gain popularity on the most discussed topic. At the same time, he is not an epidemiologist, so his words about the speed of the spread of the virus and the concealment of the extent of the situation should not be believed. You should listen to it only if you are a stock trader or if you are trying to make money on currency fluctuations. But as practice shows, here too Demura often misses his forecasts.
