May God be with you always. You did your job and fulfilled your duty, we Chinese people will remember you always. May you rest in peace sir.

This is how the Mandela effect starts. One person someone died and next thing you know the turns up still alive and doing fine.

The Coronavirus left two bullet wounds in his head. Scary virus.

The dude is not dead. https://www.foxla.com/news/doctor-who-sounded-alarm-on-coronavirus-not-dead-despite-who-comments-hospital-claims.amp?_

I don't trust anything reported out of China at this rate.

This very fuckin sad, he tried to warm everyone; got silenced, ridiculed and now death

Supposedly HE LIVES

Just like Epstein....
michellewilliams509sfinest101
Why are they trying so hard to block the actual info?? Everything is crazy about this
catnipHip
BTW, source is Global Times, a Chinsese media outlet. Even if it sounds terrible I hope he actually died from the virus and not for violence
apneax3n0n
They injected him the virus . So it was not them who killed him
RichardTrickle
I hope he actually lives
TheYoungGod
Or that he's actually at peace and not being tortured in some ""Vocational Education and Training Center"".

Not dead but in critical condition https://edition.cnn.com/2020/02/06/asia/li-wenliang-coronavirus-whistleblower-doctor-dies-intl/index.html

Your article says you're lying

This is maybe naive but I thought the deaths were mostly very old, young or immuno-compromised
TwoStupidDogs
NO. God damnit, China
AzothTheGuildRat
He's not dead. He's critically I'll though.

He's dead unfortunately.
AzothTheGuildRat
Oh no. He must have passed afterwards or were they wrong in reporting he wasnt dead yet?

It gets better. He is still alive. CCP is just reporting him dead

Was this the same doctor who got censored by the chinese government?

The one downvote - China

No good deed goes unpunished.

By the local government. The national government is currently betraying the local government and hailing him as a hero.

Yes. Wtf ???

Correct. They tried to keep him quiet. Bad China.

Apparently the Coronavirus has mutated and is now causing people to commit suicide by shooting themselves 3 times in the head... Scary

You just die and get cremated... Not necessarily in that order
IAkuTheShapeShiftingMasterofDarkness
That sounds like a US thing. Fairly sure in China you just disappear and noone says a word
newdoug2017
Nah,according to the NYPD, he fell down a flight of stairs and then shot himself in the back of the head,committing a “Epstein maneuver”..

Why would they have those numbers?
vikingvampireangel
Because they're a state run media and telecommunications giant that posts daily updated info via their "news" program. Previously the number
vikingvampireangel
Seemed very incremental and unusually consistent. But for that day they posted a much more dire update temporarily, until it was quickly -

If you want to keep nimbers hidden, don't give them to the media, even if it is a propoganda machine

They did. Then they yelled at all the reporters who reported it, and got the guy on some BS respirator thing to claim he's alive.

Now he is banned from reincarnation

maybe his death is the censoring?

They did sensor his death, someone managed to leak it onto Weibo though so the Chinese people know about it now and its causing outrage

Can a healthy person die from this virus?
DigiT00l
Yes, but unlikely, if no respritory issues symptoms are a bit more extreme flu, and flu can randomly kill "healthy" people as well, but very

Rare, and shouldn't be a concern

Canis138
I would say no, because if you have the virus you're no longer healthy.
SuperPickle17
that's not really true. our dna contains virus dna. So...

Oh I was doing what few would consider a joke. It wasn't meant seriously.

unofficial leaked numbers for dead 25,000

Zedd990
24k+ dead?

That was on Reddit and they kinda debunked that already, ppl photoshopped it to show us how it could be faulty.

So fake
nygreenguy
Careful, skepticism is frowned upon
FunkyTheFox
I get downvoted because someone is spreading information not backed by any evidence? No wonder we’re in this mess
obnoshus
That's not just a random chart. A state ran news outlet in Taiwan aired these numbers for an hour before replacing it with a 450. Chinaashoe
obnoshus
It was leaked by tencent, and may or may not actually be legit, but is worth noting. Skeptisim involves scrutiny of even fringe data
FunkyTheFox
So a news outlet changing their numbers means the initial data was true? What were their sources on the initial data?
obnoshus
Its state ran so... The state. Its unlikely that china would provide thier propagandist with the truth they are to conceal, but funny enough
puddin151
even if it is, do you think the Chinese gov, notorious for lying about this stuff, is telling the truth that only 300 have died and 1/2
puddin151
their "early" response was to quarantine multiple massive cities and build so many hospitals?
FunkyTheFox
So you’re telling me you believe the data is false because you have a bias towards the Chinese government, and not because there is evidence
puddin151
I would say the videos coming out of the hospitals where dead are laying next to sick people is pretty good evidence
FunkyTheFox
Evidence of what? That people die in hospitals? I work in one and could do the same. The corona virus is similar to influenza in virulency..
fourbabiesinatrenchcoat
300? How old is your data? In China is 564 and outside is 2.

They will usually just citate chinese sources

Correction. He is NOT dead. But seriously ill. Sauce: 1/2

So we should downvote this post because its purely sensational and spreads misinformation, right? Right imgurians? You gonna downvote?

Chinese government has declared him dead . He hasn't received the message yet
bubbleawsome
People are saying after his death he was hooked up to an ECMO machine so the CCP could claim he wasn’t dead
theresgarlicinthatnebula
As an ICU nurse that's basically my job tho...
GorgeousGen
I've read quite a few articles, trying to figure wtf is going, essentially he died but is kept alive essentially using life support.
TheVermonster
He is officially dead now. Supposedly it was miscommunication from the hospital.
FuzzyX
A false death report was put out after his heart stopped and he had to be resuscitated. Alive but in critical condition.
emowgli
They’ve updated everywhere that he is dead
FuzzyX
Yes he really died hours after I made my comment. Very sad but shows how deadly this virus is.
DoTheFridayDance

Washington Post says he's dead. (Link too long to post).

(pun only intended in retrospect).
magicrhombus
You can often strip the tracking information off the link and shorten it by half
Vident99
There are sites that can shorten your long url to a short one like bitly or tiny url. Just wanted to let you know :)
Counterfit
Use bitly for Washington Post, it'll become a wa.po link
only90skidswillgetthis
Fwiw most of them are banned on imgur and many other public comment sites since they can conceal bad URL, hard to police
Vident99
Ah, makes sense but at the same time it’s a shame as many shared url’s (e.g. Facebook) look like a monkey had just hit keyboard for a min.
AllTheGoodOnesWereGone
Of course, but the last time I tried to find one it seemed like they all sucked and I gave up :)
Vident99
If only there was an option to copy a short url from the actual site, but I’m not holding my breath on that.
AllTheGoodOnesWereGone
Or maybe they could not make all 200 characters of the story URL required to make a working link, sheesh.
