China's accounting of COVID-19 cases and deaths are laughable.
Yesterday they said they had
ONE Covid death during their surge in covid cases. WTF?
They had 9,308 cases and one death.
Live statistics and coronavirus news tracking the number of confirmed cases, recovered patients, tests, and death toll due to the COVID-19 coronavirus from Wuhan, China. Coronavirus counter with new cases, deaths, and number of tests per 1 Million population. Historical data and info. Daily...

During the US peak we had 300-400K cases a day and for awhile our peak was 4,000 deaths/day
We know we cannot trust them to be straightforward and honest about anything related to Covid.
Their criteria for a death to be counted as a Covid death requires this:
"Chinese health officials have said only deaths caused by pneumonia and respiratory failure in patients who had the virus are classified as COVID deaths. "
"Yet disease experts outside China have said its approach would miss several other widely recognised types of potentially fatal COVID complications, from blood clots to heart attacks as well as sepsis and kidney failure. "
We know there are many other classifications of death that are directly Covid caused. China will not look at the others. With bodies piling up morgues
funeral homes as they cannot cremate them fast enough, estimates are the 9,000 deaths/ day are being caused by Covid.
China defended on Thursday its handling of its raging COVID-19 outbreak after U.S. President Joe Biden voiced concern and the World Health Organisation (WHO) said Beijing was under-reporting virus deaths.

Estimates are at least 1M people in China will die from Covid.
