The CCP reports covid deaths, sending a serious signal about the epidemic

The China CDC reported on 12 December 2023 that in November, China had 135 new severe cases of covid and 8 deaths. Data show that in October, China had 209 new severe cases of covid and 24 deaths.

However, these official data have been seriously questioned by the outside world, and it is believed that the actual number of serious illness and deaths may far exceed these figures.

In recent months, the epidemic has exploded in China, and hospitals across the country have continued to be full. The CCP has been covering up the epidemic and avoiding mentioning covi (Chinese Communist Party virus/CCP virus, novel coronavirus). However, anti-epidemic measures have been continuously upgraded. Conferences and airports in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou have begun to conduct nucleic acid tests. Schools also started disinfection operations.

Now, officials are beginning to report severe cases and deaths from covid, sending a signal that the epidemic in China is becoming increasingly severe.

Currently, not only a large number of children and students are infected, but adults and elderly patients are also increasing. CCTV reported on 11 December 2023 that survey data showed that out of every 10 people who died from the flu, 8 were elderly.

Some netizens posted on Weibo: "My grandpa, a family friend, died suddenly. It was said that he had influenza and was covi-positive. It took 13 days from discovery to death. If you have symptoms, you will die in Shanghai. They also run a medium-sized hospital." . Hey, let’s lament the impermanence of things again!”

Some netizens said: "Several people in our department have collapsed and their symptoms are severe."

Shanghai nursing worker: Hospital outbreak may kill a number of people

Wang Hao (pseudonym), a Shanghai nurse, revealed to NTDTV on 11 December 2023 that the epidemic has broken out in hospitals. Hospital beds are hard to find and a large number of medical staff, inpatients and accompanying family members have been infected.

"The disease has spread in the hospital, and the patients' families have been infected. Doctors and nurses are also coughing. Now I have symptoms myself, and many children have been hospitalized with white lungs. It is estimated that even those who are infirm will die." Wang Hao said.

Wang Hao also revealed that there are many severe patients with white lung in the hospital: "I was in the hospital a few days ago, and one of them was undergoing surgery. He must have been infected with white lung. The rancid smell in the ward was quite strong, and his lungs were all covered with blood." It’s inflamed, ulcerated, and it smells like that.”

He said that medical staff with symptoms are still going to work, and infected patients and their family members are not isolated, and the epidemic continues to spread.

Mr. Liu, a villager in Henan Province, told NTDTV that his uncle suffered from cancer and contracted the epidemic while he was hospitalized. He died soon after and his accompanying family members were also infected with the disease.

Video: Hospitals in Beijing and Shanghai continue to be overcrowded and corridors packed with people

Video shows that at the end of November, the emergency room of Shanghai Zhongshan Hospital was overcrowded, and the corridors were crowded with patients.

The Shanghai Children's Hospital was also full. The parents of the children who took the video said that it would take a day to take their children to see a doctor.

A netizen in Beijing posted a video saying that on 11 December 2023, a working day, Beijing Children's Hospital was still packed with people at 3 or 4 pm.

Beijing netizen "plus" said that there were so many patients in the fever outpatient clinic of Peking University Third Hospital that they had to wait in line for more than three hours.

Netizen "Mu Zi Zai Bei Diao" said that in Beijing's pediatric department, mycoplasma, influenza A, and covid are all mixed together, and the number cannot be registered. Even the special needs of 500 yuan cannot be registered. My son has a fever and cannot be treated, so he can only be observed at home.

There is a video showing that there are long queues of patients at the pediatric night clinic in Beijing’s first and third-grade hospitals.

As the epidemic continues to spread, the CCP has recently launched covi vaccination. All parts of the country are calling on the elderly and key populations to receive vaccines containing antigen components of XBB variant strains.

The CDC stated that currently, the XBB mutant strain of the covi is the main epidemic strain in China. It has strong immune evasion ability and is prone to breakthrough infections.

Experts warn that a new wave of epidemic may peak around New Year's Day 2024.
