The National Health Commission of PRC reports asymptomatic infections. Not only are the numbers questioned highly shrinking, but also personal information and activity tracks are not published.  The outside world believes that this is to prepare the asymptomatic infected patients in China to be partly blamed for the covid pandemic. But despite the strong demand from the public, the official refused to publish the patients' personal information and activity track. Officials in Guangzhou said that if they do not announce it, they cannot "publish it."

On 1 April 2020, Guangzhou officials began to announce the newly added number of asymptomatic infections. Since the outbreak occurred for several months, the data of asymptomatic infected persons (positive nucleic acid test but asymptomatic) are kept confidential, and the official only announces those with symptoms.

However, although the number of asymptomatic infected persons released by Guangzhou has been increased to double digits, the information and specific activity tracks of these infected persons have never been reported. Local netizens questioned the government one by one: "Asymptomatic infected people are as contagious as symptomatic people. Why not publish their information and activity tracks like symptomatic people, so that the public can take precautions", "Aren't asymptomatic patients humans?", "Aren't our lives lives?"

Some netizens said that they have not been notified many newly diagnosed cases in the local area , questioning the official concealment of data. Some netizens calculated from official data that most of the asymptomatic infected persons notified by Guangzhou were local people, and congratulated the official for “finding a method without publishing cases”.

The daily new cases announced in many areas of China were once "cleared", but they have increased recently, but most of them are so-called "imported cases abroad" and "import-related cases". The outside world questioned this "political order" from the CCP.

Regarding the public outrage caused by not publishing the information of asymptomatic infected persons, some mainland media called several official agencies and did not know the reason for not publishing.

Among them, the Guangzhou Municipal Centrer for Disease Control and Prevention responded, "All that can be published now have been published on the official website. If it is not published, it cannot be published, or there are other considerations." Staff of the National Public Health Public Welfare Hotline 12320 said, Everything is subject to the announcement issued on the official website. The Guangzhou Municipal Epidemic Prevention Headquarters is responsible for whether or not to publish information locally. The staff of the Guangdong Province Health Commission said that the notification of new cases in Guangdong Province has been implemented to the relevant Municipal Health Commission (bureau). If you have any questions, you should ask the local prevention and control department.

At the State Council news conference on 2 April, the National Health  Commission officially declared that "the epidemiological investigation should be carried out in time for asymptomatic infected persons found, their source should be ascertained, and relevant information should be published openly and transparently." In the prevention and control developments issued by the Guangzhou Province Health Commission on 13 April for asymptomatic infected persons, there was no mention of "publicly and transparently releasing relevant information", but instead quoted the so-called expert claims that asymptomatic persons were infectious "relatively confirmed cases" It will be weaker. "

This "maintenance stability" argument is contrary to the research results of domestic and foreign experts. The CCP's official internal statements are also contradictory.

On 31 March, the National Health Commission of the Communist Party of China stated in an anti-epidemic question and answer published on its official website, "There are recurrences of second-generation cases in close contacts of asymptomatic infected persons. Epidemiological investigations have found that individual cases caused by asymptomatic infected persons In clustered outbreaks, studies with small sample sizes have shown that the viral load in respiratory samples of asymptomatic infected persons is not much different from the confirmed cases. "

A few days ago, the Ningbo CDC published a paper saying that after conducting a statistical study on 2147 close contacts reported locally, the infection rate of close contacts of confirmed cases (symptomatic infections) was 6.30%. The infection rate of close contacts was 4.11%, and the difference in infection rate between the two was "not statistically significant".

Later, Wu Zunyou, the "Chief Expert in Epidemiology" of the CCP's Centre for Disease Control, cited the above paper and came to a "conclusion": Asymptomatic infections are only one-third of the diagnosed patients. However, most of the data cited by Wu Zunyou did not exist in the paper, and was accused of being "spoofed."
