Either this is barely stronger than a common cold or the Chinese covered up the deaths of millions from the China virus. Make up your minds, you MAGA-fellating fricks.

It’s not just China, all eastern Asian countries are relatively low considering density and population. If China had a continuing problem, you would see issues in surrounding countries.

I said this from the start, if this was really that bad it would kill millions in China. I've been there, I've seen the poor, and how they live cooped up in government housing. They are all in bad health because of the polluted air they breath everyday. As many that are dying in Italy and the way it is spreading here there is no doubt in my mind that it killed tens of thousands more than they reported. How did it all of the sudden just stop there?

wtf? I didn't say it wasn't an issue. Calm the frick down.
All I'm saying is that if it was as deadly as killing millions in China, we would be seeing more deaths here.

So millions have died? What the frick are ranting about?

Mf, how many Americans you know that know how to read fricking Chinese?

Our government knows. Think they aren't peeking down watching them fill up trucks full of bodies and haul them to be burned or buried?

Why the frick would you post that shite without saying wtf it represents?
The obvious is that it's number of new cases, but it then goes negative. So it can't be that.
I hate dumb posts like these.

A 1% death rate assumes the same level of care going forward. If a health system is overwhelmed (Italy) you will see a higher death rate bc people who would have normally survived will not be able to bc if of the lack of care (ventilators , ICU beds, meds, etc).

This is my understanding of this whole situation. Its not something that will kill more people than not. It's not some... whatever other crazy idea people have. It comes down to resources. It is an easy spread virus in which most people will recover from, but there it will have an impact on enough people who will need to be hospitalized that it will overflow resources. It's that simple and for some reason people can't understand this.

A poster on PT board, Lake Charles, posted that his Chinese wife was told from former business contacts they 500,000 - 1.5 mil have died in China. We will never know.

Just to put this in perspective:
CDC has estimated that at least 12,000 people have died from influenza between Oct. 1, 2019 through Feb. 1, 2020, and the number of deaths may be as high as 30,000.
The CDC also estimates that up to 31 million Americans have caught the flu this season, with 210,000 to 370,000 flu sufferers hospitalized because of the virus. Stats link
COVID-19: Approximately 10,067 deaths reported worldwide; 205 deaths in the U.S., as of Mar. 20, 2020.*
Flu: 291,000 to 646,000 deaths worldwide; 12,000 to 61,000 deaths in the U.S. per year. Stats link
China has a billion people with worse health, worse healthcare, and worse living conditions and a government that does not give the smallest amount of shite about them and did nothing but hide the truth for months.
More people die in the USA of the flu every year than have died on the entire planet because of covod-19

If I had to guess I bet it’s around 50k.

single telecom provider in China lost about 9 million subscribers since the beginning of the year. Leaks
Having trouble with link to article but here is an explanation that doesnt involve millions secretly dead.
Its because the market is saturated With 114% mobile penetration, not even 5G will be enough to deliver customer growth.
Another is that this is a sign of 5G overhanging the market.
Customers are keen on 5G, with monthly packages starting from an affordable RMB128 ($18.20) for 30GB of data. But they are turned off by the limited range of devices, their high prices and the spotty coverage.
Another theory is that subscriber numbers have been inflated by the those who have bought second and third SIMs for the additional data packages. These people are now swapping out their 4G packages and becoming single-card 5G users, taking advantage of the vastly higher data caps on the new network.
Despite its net loss of subs in January, China Mobile has racked up 6.74 million 5G subscriptions since the November launch. Unicom and Telecom have an estimated 2 million 5G subscribers each.

You can’t even trust the US government when they say something, why in frick would you trust China’s? Of course they’re lying about the severity.

Because they couldn’t work so they didn’t pay the bill.

Wait there are people that think China is really telling the truth and the cases have gone down?
You think the same government that made 1.5 million people disappear into concentration camps over the last two year and then lie to the world about it would tell the truth now?
You think a government who buried passenger train cars where they sat after a detailing to his the death toll in its new high speed railway would tell the world the truth now?
You think a government who killed 10,000 people at Tiannamen Square then tell the world it was only 200 would tell the truth now?
You think a government who refused to give a death toll after a huge earthquake killed an estimated 80,000 people would tell the truth now?
You think a government who covered up the death of thousands of infants due to tainted formula would tell the truth now?
You think a government who harvests the organs of political prisoners and sells them to the wealthy, gets caught doing it and continues to lie would tell the truth now?
You think a government who paid poor people for plasma, and then pooled all the blood together and reinfected it into the donors, causing a massive spread of HIV is going to somehow tell the truth now?
If you think China is telling the truth about it your either uneducated on how the Chinese government works or your just blind to how communism works because you’ve never truly seen it first hand.

That was a total of I believe 7 "you thinks"....No I dont trust Chinese state information. I was just offering a possible alternative reason that the telecom services lost millions of subscribers early this year besides what the OP was suggesting. That being that those millions of subscribers are in mass graves or were incinerated(which is another story going around). I'm certainly open to evidence.
