The death toll from the new coronavirus jumped by 50% in Wuhan, the original center of the pandemic, after health authorities in the Chinese city announced revised numbers.

The number of deaths in Wuhan attributed to Covid-19, the disease caused by the coronavirus, increased by 1,290 to 3,869, according to a notice from Wuhan officials published Friday by China’s official Xinhua News Agency.

I am living in a city that is several hundred miles from Wuhan, with 8+ million population. There have been less than 100 infected cases, 0 death in this city, no new cases in last two months. But schools are still not fully opened, and people wear masks all the time.

Add a few zeros on and we’re getting closer...

They must just add as the number is still not right

They must of put that number out of their ass. Let me know when the revised numbers hit 45,000.

And this too is a lie.

So then, how true are these new numbers? Let's start with the population of Wuhan! Then we add the death figures in other provinces..

Big surprise there.

Wait for the next revision...

Oops!

How do you know? Has China given you a special look into their numbers.

after US can control this virus and take a review on its death toll exactly the same rise in number will happen. But I doubt US has the courage to do it bybthen , but take a look, Chinese do have the courage and be practical and realistic.

But have since dropped

Multiply x 100

Chinese are pathological liars the world knows that, but their end has come. President Xi have helped to fast destroy China

Missing some digits

China stats. Ok. I’ll pass.

China has a history. Are they reporting or negotiating? Do they increase the count until skepticism eases or are they struggling trying to be accurate? I am more apt to believe the former than the latter.

Why report China’s fake news?

China: Covid19 is serious. Tell your citizens to wear masks, test all possible close contacts, and find places to isolate all confirmed cases. Others: Nah, China always lies.

Boycott China. This is all on the Chinese.

Still BS numbers!

Fake news

China should be tried for crimes against humanity.... will never happen. The world leaders have no backbone and the one that does - they are all trying to crush. Can’t have anyone step out of line

How can anyone believe the crap that comes out of China?! Liars ... Buy American !

And they’re still lying

They lie . Over and over and over. Why take such draconian measures if it was only 3600 people. Liars

They manipulate their currency, flagrantly steal IP however, just a miscalculation on this data point..?

It’s not surprised that the death toll of Wuhan is much lower than the number in U.S. China didn’t spend 2 months arguing whether people should wear masks. And Wuhan didn’t need to bid ventilators with other provinces.

Keep revising until they get to the real number.

These are still lies

Hahaha yeah ok! It’s still higher

Are they going to update their true STATS anytime soon? I thought the Chinese were impeccable with their early math development, skills and studies .... did they lose those during the Covid19 Pandemic 🤷🏻‍♀️Covid19

Finally coming 'clean'.

I can't retweet an article using this photo wtf man

That picture reflects the story how?

So... 386900 deaths

Add a couple of 00's to the end and you might get close to the truth.

Tomorrow they can said is actually 0 death. What to believe anymore from China.🤷🏻‍♂️

They need to revise those numbers tenfold. C’mon guys! 🙄

CCP and Chinazi now tested the ash of death to increase the data? Very innovative technology!

The virus killed 22,000 in Italy despite the lockdown. There’s no way it killed less than 5,000 in a country with over a billion people (and terrible air pollution). Remember: Wuhan did not go into lockdown until January and the first *confirmed* case was in November.

More likely it's higher than that.

I still don’t believe them.

hope not it is exponential growth

make fake news to protect your ideology advanced

Lol. They're off by 1000x probably.

Alarming news!

The deaths figure from the Wuhan virus are surely more than what was declared by the authorities

Because Wuhan’s 1290 looks like a practical joke on the chart now, although the ‘revised’ one is also a joke. Remember whatever released from China is all under CCP’s control. Given how CCP treat Chinese people, why you’d think they will treat the rest of the world differently?

That number is waaaay too low. The CCP is truly unbelievable.

NY revised their dead count recently by more than one thousand. So did Italy, Spain, Germany n Korea. Everyone did an honest mistake and China is no exception.

Don’t care. All lies

China recorded 1290 deaths yesterday. And here maybe they had stopped the virus.

Try 50 times

这就叫坦荡。涨了数字,告诉你原因。你可以不信,但请你调研。你可别跟傻子似的:劳资就是不做调查研究,劳资就是要喷你虚假瞒报。是,我们当然可以不信官方的,但你也没证据啊,我凭啥信你的呢?huh?对吧?

Every statistics can be changed by CCPChina, increase or decrease no. of deaths/ infected is on CCP favourite. ChinaLiedPeopleDied CCPVirus Covid_19 chinaislying China_is_terrorist

Might as well take whatever number they give you and multiply it by 10. Then you will probably be close to the actual number.

I guess this picture is to impress your western readers a fact that Wuhan has done more tests than the entire US already...

China still lying ...

In the end, whether it's Italy or New York, the data will eventually be revised. And then I've predicted your comments by then.

Evil liar china CCP is disgusting with their lies that kill the world.

They will revise it again

ChinaLiesPeopleDie China is the ENEMY

And this is the true stats? Nah, I don’t think so. The real stats will never be revealed, it is China that we are talking about. ChinaLiedPeopleDie

So, they're just picking numbers out of thin air?

Add a couple of zeros to the end of that number and you might be close!

🙈 And still far from the 42,000 ashes released only in wuhan according to Radio Asia. They are seriously thinking the world can be fooled like this? 👹👺🤔🤯Italian journalists started to report faults in Chinese news counts at the beginning of March 🤬🤬🤬

Guess the world wouldn't leave China alone until the number finally meets your imagination, huh? 😷 Well, still a long way to go...

New York and the rest of the world are going to be doing the same thing. They will revise later because the health care system is overloaded and some people die in their homes.

ChinaLiedPeopleDied

They'll have to review the data a few more times imo.

Just like in school: Any asian (Korean, Thai, Japanese...) : done maths right at first attempt. Chinese : let me have a look back at the number again. And again.

WSJ, what do you want to express using that photo. Is that something behind your dark disgusting mind you have, you want to say, but dare not to say? And now you must know that AMERICA IS THE REAL SICK MAN.

*revised* lol

'Revised' = made up new number since last one so unbelievable

any news from china meets one problem, problem of the credibility.

In simple, China 🇨🇳 lied to the world!

CCP lied plain and simple

Uh huh. Interesting I guess.

Not even close to the numbers they burned.

Yep, Trump will respond he won't be beaten in any recount😉

only two thousand! china must be lying again.must be more zeros. the death troll must be over usa. satisfied?

China's coronavirus cure, Oops, wrong pic? Umm🙄

BoscoWo42122490 China never tell the truth

Ew yuck

Given that the mortality rate is what it is should we assume the same for the number of cases.. i.e. a hundred thousand odd misreported cases

Power Pic

BoscoWo42122490 ChinaLiedPeopleDied WHOLiedPeopleDied

Anything Chinese must never be trusted! The fake everything! Damn race.

BoscoWo42122490 Whatever they say, don't be serious!

Following the suit of NYC. During the earlier days of the epidemic in Wuhan, there were patients who were tested positive but could not get a bed in the overwhelmed hospitals and died at home.

Nice picture.

AP_80 Don’t tell anyone.

wsj_douglasj Wu-han Clan-ger

China lied. Got caught. Now they're trying to cover up the severity of their lies.

Why that picture?

I am sure it is at least 50000 deaths.

What about the death cases in New York ?is it true ?is it the real number ?aha

deaths at home and untested ones included...
