Wuhan Coronavirus Death Toll Spikes To 1000, Infected Over 42,500
CORONAVIRUS DEATH TOLL OVER 1000 – The new coronavirus outbreak that started in Wuhan fails to show signs of slowing down as it reached new heights today.
Health authorities in the province of Hubei had reported an additional 103 deaths due to the Wuhan coronavirus. With this, the death toll in the province had now gone up to 974.
This sums up the total death toll in mainland China to at least 1,011. Meanwhile, outside of China, there have only been two deaths reported that was due to the virus.
However, some speculate that this number is merely the tip of the iceberg with regards to the true death count. As the virus continued to run rampant in China, conspiracies, and theories spread throughout social media.
Along with this, an exiled Chinese billionaire claims to have inside information regarding the true numbers in China.
Businessman Guo Wengui revealed leaks from Wuhan crematoriums. He said that based on the number of burning bodies in their furnaces, the death toll could be as high as 50,000.
In addition, he also claimed to have insider information that the true number of infected from the virus is over 1.5 million in China. He emphasized that these are not suspected cases, but confirmed ones.
Wengui stated there were 49 crematoriums in Wuhan that have been working non-stop for 17 days. Last week, a worker from one of the crematoriums known as “Mr. Yun” told a Chinese newspaper he had been working 24 hours a day.
Mr. Yun claimed that at their crematorium over 100 bags are required daily. However, not all body bags are for coronavirus deaths. But, that is still an unusual number of deaths due to other causes.
