Officials in Qiqihar, Heilongjiang Province Cover Up Information about Coronavirus Epidemic

March 05, 2020 |   By a Minghui correspondent in China

(Minghui.org) One CT scan technician in the First Hospital of Qiqihar City, Heilongjiang Province has been infected with the coronavirus. Currently, this hospital has received over 100 coronavirus patients, including medical staff. None of these cases have been reported or publicized, according to NTDTV, a New York based Chinese media.

According to a whistleblower who revealed the information to NTDTV, the medical staff at the hospital have been working long shifts lasting more than 20 days without any time off. He also heard that some medical workers in other hospitals have also been infected, but none of them have been reported either. Otherwise the hospitals' leadership would be punished for violating the “epidemic propaganda guidelines” issued by the communist regime.

Other than the hospitals, 23 residents in a senior center in Qiqihar have also been confirmed to have contracted the virus.

In the past few days, several infected people in Fenghuangcheng Subdivision in Qiqihar committed suicide. Instead of investigating the reasons for their deaths, the local media said that those residents came from the Fenghuangcheng neighborhood in Mudanjiang City, not Qiqihar.
