US Intelligence Report Concludes that China has Faked its Covid-19 Numbers

According to reported data, the US now has the highest number of COVID-19 infections at 216,768 along with 5,148 deaths. This number is well above China’s reported Coronavirus infections of (82,431) and deaths (3,322).

However, a new report by the US intelligence community concludes that China’s official data downplays the nation’s crisis in the wake of its COVID-19 infections when it was its peak.

• Coronavirus, the biggest threat to our survival and world business

Bloomberg News reported on Wednesday that China’s numbers on deaths and infections were both false, that China has repeatedly changed its data collecting methodology. Asymptomatic infections, for example, were originally not included in the official numbers until last Tuesday, which resulted in a major distortion of data. Though asymptomatic people do not suffer the worst of the infection, they pass it on to others.

Many of those who work in Wuhan, China’s funeral industry claim that the government data cannot possibly be accurate.

US intelligence community findings made China pushed back against the US allegations, depicting them as an attempt to shift the blame for America’s large number of infections. Clearly, the rivalry between China and the US is playing out during a time of global tragedy.
