Quora: The Chinese government just reported a major drop in new Coronavirus cases. Do you believe they are telling the truth?

Ray Hart, Digital Nomad Co-Living Davao City and San Diego

No, that is not exactly what they have reported. That is what a bunch of western media types who neither read nor speak Chinese reported that that the Chinese are saying in hopes you will believe whatever they are telling you, because you don’t read or speak it either.

Here is the background and what they actually reported:

A few days before I wrote the original answer, (February 21) China went to using a new test that accurately identified the virus in a matter of hours instead of several days allowing them to more quickly get through a backlog of patients who were under observation thereby spiking the number of newly confirmed cases. They never hid the fact of how many people they had under observation pending test results. Now they have cleared the backlog which has taken them from 44k to 66k in just 2 days back to a few hundred new confirmed cases. The other thing that western media types aren’t mentioning is over that same time period they have cleared more than 300,000 people they had under observation.

The increases of several hundred in the early days were a combination of new cases which were a few hundred a day, plus newly confirmed cases from isolated people under observation. With the new test confirming or clearing up their backlog of cases they are only dealing with new cases, not ones that are weeks old with a person already well on their way to recovery. So few hundred cases simply looks like a drop if all you did was look at the graph without reading the information

I had been going from one country to another for medication for 3 years just to be cured from herpes but all seems in vain, i was confused and decided to search through the Internet if i could get any news concerning herpes so i do keep searching until i visited one particular site and i saw the great testimonies from different persons testifying how Dr. Obela has cure them from herpes and other diseases and i was shock and was thinking if this is real, after a due consideration i decided to contact him with the email address I found in the posted just to give it a trial and when i contacted him he proved to me that his herbal medicine can cure me if only i believe in him, so i requested for his herbal medicine and i got it and i applied it as prescribed and after 1weeks and 3 days of application i went for a test and to my greatest shock the herpes virus has disappeared and it was just like a dream.

  2. When we were young, whatever our parents said or talked to us, we tend to consider them old-fashion or naggy. We had no idea they were worried for us all the time and the love they had for us was paramount. We felt like they were building a prison wall around us. Out of respect for them, we told lies so as not to hurt them and also feared being shouted and being punished.
    Now only that we were parents, is only when we understood even when they are not here to lecture us, we are going through Deja Vu. We are walking in their shoes. We understood.
    The ministers will never ever understand because they are not walking in our shoes. To most of us, they are just creatures of habit with no conscience. A man is not what he is, but what he hides.

  3. Times when I read about foreigners doing interviews this about this country here, I only took it lightly when happened

    to come across reading it. Not that we can read everything. Reason being they were afraid to say how or what they feel

    for fear of backlash. That's why I think Ramesh had a lot of nerves to publicly came out and spoke the truth about a 99

    old unit in a condo ( not in the prime area)costing $1.5 million which is alien to a lot of countries. To conclude, most

    but not all tend to be superficial in their answers after the smelly MRT saga. When they only tend to say all the good

    things, eventually it became the truth. Only the Malaysian Chinese will be believable when they express the goodness

    in this country. People nowadays are not stupid.
