Economic, pollution data is similarly manipulated. Local officials have incentives to misreport this data.
Why should infection data be any different?
The current CCP narrative is that all new cases are imported. Do you find this credible?
- asdfasgasdgasdg 7y agoI don't know if I believe the exact numbers. I think they are likely at the right order of magnitude.
- TeMPOraL 7y ago> pollution data is similarly manipulated Even the satellite measurements NASA shoots? I'd sincerely like to see the tech behind that coverup!

That said, having lived and worked in China, any official at the local level would be prudent find a way to attribute all local cases to being imported and not local transmission. This whole debacle will end up being the CCP's Chernobyl moment; systemic failure due to CYA mentality because the consequences from the state apparatus are perceived as the worst possible personal outcome.
