On March 22, The Epoch Times<\/a> posted an article that gives us a way to gauge what happened in China during the coronavirus epidemic.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

The number of Chinese cellphone users dropped by 21 million in the past three months, Beijing authorities announced on March 19. Deaths due to the CCP virus may have contributed to the high number of account closings.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Cellphones are an indispensable part of life in China.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThe digitization level is very high in China. People can\u2019t survive without a cellphone,\u201d Tang Jingyuan, a U.S.-based China affairs commentator, told The Epoch Times on March 21. \u201cDealing with the government for pensions and social security, buying train tickets, shopping \u2026 no matter what people want to do, they are required to use cellphones.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThe Chinese regime requires all Chinese to use their cellphones to generate a health code. Only with a green health code are Chinese allowed to move in China now. It\u2019s impossible for a person to cancel his cellphone.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

China introduced<\/a> mandatory facial scans on Dec. 1, 2019, to confirm the identity of the person who registered the phone. As early as Sept. 1, 2010, China required all cellphone users to register phones with their real identification, by which the state can control people\u2019s speech via its large-scale monitoring system.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Furthermore, Chinese people\u2019s bank accounts and social security accounts are bundled with their cellphone plans; apps on Chinese phones check SIM cards against the state\u2019s database to make sure the number belongs to the user.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The article concludes:<\/p>\n

A comparison with the situation in Italy also suggests the Chinese death toll is significantly underreported. Italy adopted similar measures to those used by the Chinese regime. The CCP virus death toll<\/a> in Italy of 4,825 translates to a death rate of 9 percent. In China, where a much larger population was exposed to the virus, the reported death toll of 3,265 translated to a death rate of only 4 percent, less than half that reported in Italy.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Activities in the outbreak epicenter of Hubei Province seem to contradict the reported death toll in China. The seven funeral homes in the city of Wuhan were reported to be burning bodies<\/a> 24 hours a day, seven days a week in late January. Hubei Province has used 40 mobile cremators<\/a>, each capable of burning five tons of medical waste and bodies a day, since Feb. 16.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lacking data, the real death toll in China is a mystery. The cancellation of 21 million cellphones provides a data point that suggests the real number may be far higher than the official number.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Epoch Times refers to the novel coronavirus, which causes the disease COVID-19, as the CCP virus because the Chinese Communist Party\u2019s coverup and mismanagement allowed the virus to spread throughout China and create a global pandemic.<\/strong><\/p>\n

We need to remember that China is a communist regime. The regime routinely lies to the population to create the narrative that is best for the regime. The concept of taking steps to protect the population is not the first priority of the regime. We will probably never know the toll the virus took on China, but we can safely bet that the numbers were much higher than what we have been told.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
