U.S. Intelligence: China Lied About True Extent of Wuhan Coronavirus Outbreak
Brand new reports from U.S.
intelligence agencies confirm what literally everyone who’s paid an ounce of
attention over the past few months already knew: China attempted to
conceal the actual extent of the COVID-19 coronavirus
outbreak in Wuhan.
As those infected with COVID-19 passes the 1 million mark globally,
getting accurate information out of China by U.S. Intelligence has proven to be
extremely difficult.
According to CNN, when China first released data about the Wuhan coronavirus in January 2020, Chinese officials reported that only 7,711 people had been infected, including just 170 deaths.
The relatively low number of reported
coronavirus cases and deaths drew skepticism from millions of Americans who saw
videos on social media that appeared to show hundreds of Wuhan residents
dropping dead in the streets.
The new report from U.S. intelligence confirms that these skeptics were correct that China has been lying about the extent of the outbreak in Wuhan.
China Expels American Journalists For Covering Coronavirus
U.S. intelligence agencies have not released any information on what they believe the correct infection and death numbers in China are. However, data gathered in the classified report suggests that not only are the reported numbers significantly lower than reality, but China is deliberately misreporting the numbers as well.
