The recent flu virus in mainland China is aggressive, and both adults and children are susceptible to infection. Netizens in many places reported that there were cases of death in the local area. Not only were hospitals crowded, but it was also reported that many crematoriums were overcrowded and overloaded. Many netizens pointed out that this wave of flu was actually "the previous pandemic."

The Nanjing Funeral Service Center recently released a Douyin video saying, "Is it influenza A? There is a traffic jam at the funeral home today, so many cars." According to the video, just after dawn, various large and small vehicles were blocked on the road with their lights on. It is suspected that there are buses on one side that can't be seen at a glance, and on the other side are small cars parked on one side of the road in a long line.

The mainland Douyin account "Second Uncle-Sunshine" released a video on 30 December 2024 showing that a funeral home in Hangzhou, Zhejiang was overcrowded, the long line was terrifying, and most people wore masks.

The woman filming the video exclaimed, "Look at the queue! It's so long when you get to the crematorium! You can't see the end of it."

The Douyin account "Luohe, Na Jie" also released a video on 8 January 2025, saying, "There are so many people at Xiping Crematorium today. More than 30 people were cremated in the morning alone." The video shows that the yard of the crematorium is full of various vehicles of all sizes. Public information shows that Xiping County, Zhumadian City, Henan Province is located in the southern part of Henan Province, between Zhengzhou and Wuhan, and borders Luohe City to the north.

In the comment area, netizens in Beijing, Tianjin, Gansu, Sichuan, Shandong and other places reported that there were cases of influenza deaths in the local area, including adults and children. Some died of influenza A encephalitis "just over one year old", some died of severe pneumonia caused by influenza A "just 18 years old", and some "had a high fever and were exactly 40 years old." Netizens in Henan, Shaanxi, Jiangsu and Sichuan all said that there were group infections in local schools.

Radio Free Asia reported on the 7th that with the outbreak of the virus and overcrowded hospitals, the Chinese Communist Party officials are trying their best to downplay its severity. Lin Xiaoxu, director of the Protovirus Laboratory of the U.S. Army Research Institute, said that human metapneumovirus is a common infectious virus, and there is no evidence that it has mutated but it is a bit strange that the Chinese Communist Party officials have emphasized this virus this year. Maybe there are other respiratory viruses in China that are more serious, or there is no need to disclose information to the outside world.
