Pengguna internet China berkata virus meningkat semakin parah, terutama setelah liburan imlek, waktu yang menandakan musim travel besar-besaran di sebagian besar Asia. Saksi mata memberitahu kami bahwa orang-orang di seluruh China berduka akan anggota keluarga mereka yang baru-baru ini meninggal setelah didiagnosa virus sub-tipe influenza A, H1N1. Semakin banyak orang menyatakan kecurigaan mereka bahwa rumah sakit China mungkin tidak memberitahu apa di balik kenaikan ini. Banyak yang juga menyatakan kekhawatiran apakah wabah flu burung di unggas di China telah menginfeksi manusia.
Chinese Internet users say the virus is getting worse,
especially after the Imlaek holiday,
a time that marks the big travel season in some parts of Asia.
Eyewitnesses told us that people all over China are sad
for their family members who have just passed away
after being diagnosed with H1N1, a subtype of influenza.
More and more people are wondering
why the Chinese hospital doesn't tell us what's behind this.
A lot of people are also worried
whether the bird flu epidemic in China has infected humans.
Jonathan Liu is a Chinese medical practitioner
and has his own clinic in Canada.
He says he is worried about what's happening
in this unusual flu season.
The bird flu has spread on a large scale,
but we still see the Chinese Communist Party
covering up this epidemic,
claiming it's caused by human metamorphosis, or HMPV.
But based on eyewitness reports
from many children who have died,
as well as their friends and relatives,
the severity of this situation cannot be explained by HMPV.
Let's take a look at the official website in Hong Kong
which explains the symptoms caused by bird flu in humans,
including mild symptoms such as fever, cough, and itchiness.
Severe cases can lead to pneumonia
or even failure of various organs.
According to the WHO,
the mortality rate for bird flu in humans reached 54%.
For months, the bird flu virus has been attacking jobs in the country.
Recently, Shanghai even suspended
the sale of jobs for the next three years.
Despite the severity,
this situation is almost not reported by Chinese media.
A report released last Thursday
showed that a Chinese hospital
did not test people for bird flu.
A whistleblower and another Chinese resident
also confirmed to NTD
that the hospital they knew
did not test people for bird flu.
In addition,
some said that standard flu treatment
did not effectively reduce the patient's symptoms,
causing people to ask
There are many people in the hospital, including me.
I did not get any better
after they diagnosed and treated me
with influenza patient medication.
My main symptoms are cough, headache, and mild fever.
Some of my good friends have passed away.
If you feel this disease is not serious,
it is because you are not in the hospital
and cannot see the situation.
The flu season is very severe.
There are still a lot of influenza patients in our area.
A report from Chinese officials
seems to shed light on the severity of the situation.
On Monday,
China's Ministry of Health,
the National Health Commission,
held a press conference.
A Chinese CDC researcher said
most cases in China are caused by the flu.
He also claimed that the number of infections
actually decreased,
The head of the Peking University Hospital said
the percentage of flu patients infected with pneumonia
was quite low,
and said there was no need to worry.
In contrast,
doctors from local hospitals
asked people not to underestimate the dangers.
The Lanfro H1N1 case
suffered for three days
and all the lungs were white in the X-ray scan.
The US government and media outlets outside China
widely accuse Peking
of covering up the severity of the COVID-19 pandemic
five years ago,
which has killed millions of people around the world.
This time,
Peking officials' statements
are in contrast to the first-hand testimony
from Chinese residents
and doctors from Chinese hospitals.
We will keep you updated.
