I wasn't referring to you @Trollslayer just the wider opinion of our doctor's and health experts.
China, where executions have begun on the streets ???
I wish I couldn't believe that
Luckily it seems to be fake
Does Video Show Violent Aftermath of Coronavirus Outbreak in China?
Speculation does not equal evidence.www.snopes.com
China is on lockdown, people are being welded and barricaded in their homes, media won't cover this to stop mass panic, if its only killed 2000 people inside wuhan why are they on lockdown, the flu kills more people than this each year yet they don't lock people in their homes for that.thanks, hence i questioned it, otherwise it would been getting a lot of worldwide tv coverage, which i never saw.
Its my opinion that something doesn't add up which I'm entitled too, why lockdown over 500 million of the the world's population if its only killed 2000 people.Can we keep conspiracy theories off the forum please

Something doesn't add up for me.
Because it's a new Coronavirus that has already mutated from only affecting animals and made the species leap to also affecting humans.Its my opinion that something doesn't add up which I'm entitled too, why lockdown over 500 million of the the world's population if its only killed 2000 people.
The flu kills between 12k-61k annually in comparison.

Actually, that changed last week and China is using a broader definition of what constitutes a confirmed case, to include people diagnosed on the basis of their symptoms rather than if they test positive.Lost of people died in their house. Lost of ill people are turned away from hospital because there isn't enough doctor and bed. Of those people even their are died, they wont be counted as infected so wont be counted as part of the death. Even you are admitted you are only counted as infected if the doctor perform a check using the kits gov provided. Each hospital only get few hundreds of them each day so they wont use it on every body. You also get people died on the street, in hospital corridor. They wont count as infected either.

I think this is only in one province (or district, not quite sure what they're called) where it originated. The rest still follow WHO standards of lab testing confirmation.Actually, that changed last week and China is using a broader definition of what constitutes a confirmed case, to include people diagnosed on the basis of their symptoms rather than if they test positive.
Proof?They also now wont count people carry the virus but not ill as not infected.
Proof?
But then the WHO numbers should still be counting the 'asymptomatic infected persons' as confirmed cases, seeing as the WHO didn't change their way of counting people when China started counting anyone with symptoms in Hubei province (even if they hadn't been tested).As Apple Daily reports, in the latest, fourth edition of the NHC protocol, “mild” is classified as “confirmed cases” but “asymptomatic infected persons” is defined as “persons with no clinical symptoms, respiratory tract specimens, etc. who are positive for new coronavirus pathogenic tests.” As a result, “asymptomatic infection” no longer counts as confirmed cases.
Conveniently, the new rule has triggered provinces “to find cases that can be deducted from the total number of confirmed cases.” For example, Heilongjiang has axed 13 cases from their tally stating the new definition. Hubei has deducted 87 cases today, but authorities did not explain why.”

武漢肺炎全國爆發,全國確診總數突破4萬宗,但近日有多個省市都在紀錄上減去確診病例,有省分解釋是因國家衞健委日前公佈的《新型冠狀病毒肺炎方案》將有發病的確診病例和「無症狀感染者」分開統計;過去兩日全國已減去超過100宗案例。不過《蘋果》核對數據發現,中央和地方公佈的減例數字不一...hk.news.appledaily.com
How Many Coronavirus Cases in China? Officials Tweak the Answer (Published 2020)
China’s health authorities have decided to no longer count as confirmed cases those patients who test positive but don’t show symptoms. Skepticism was immediate.www.nytimes.com
The changes to the classification of asymptomatic coronavirus cases emerged on Jan. 29, in a set of guidance from China’s National Health Commission. The agency said that it would no longer count patients who had tested positive for the coronavirus but did not display symptoms as “confirmed cases.” Instead, those patients would be counted separately, as “positive diagnosis” patients, and would become confirmed only if they began showing symptoms
The W.H.O. then released its own figures, leaving out the diagnoses made without a positive test for the virus — and indicating that it did not fully understand the change China had made.
“For consistency, we report here only the number of laboratory-confirmed cases,” the organization said in a situation report. “W.H.O. has formally requested additional information on the clinically diagnosed cases, in particular when these have occurred in the course of the outbreak and whether suspect cases were reclassified as clinically diagnosed cases.”
There is one at Manchester Royal too... Saw it yesterday.Just noticed this at Watford general.
