Following the Chinese Communist Party’s Century-Long History of Lies to the Coronavirus

April 29, 2020 |   By Tan Xin

(Minghui.org) The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) waited for more than 20 days before disclosing that the novel coronavirus, also known as the CCP virus, was transmitted between humans. 

On December 27, 2019, Dr. Zhang Jixian from the Hubei Provincial Hospital of Chinese and Western Medicine alerted the local health authorities that several patients exhibiting flu-like symptoms were infected with a novel type of coronavirus.

Three days later, Dr. Li Wenliang also warned his doctor friends on WeChat of an outbreak of a SARS-like virus.

But not until January 20, 2020, did Zhong Nanshan, the public face of China’s coronavirus task force, acknowledge that the virus did spread from person to person.

During the more than three weeks’ golden time, the CCP didn’t inform their international allies of the deadly virus, but reprimanded the doctors who warned their colleagues of the virus, deleted information on social media, and shut down the lab in Shanghai that first published the virus’ genome sequence.

As of today, nearly 3 million people worldwide have been infected with the virus and more than 200,000 people have died from it. 

Yet compared to the data in western countries, the 84,000 infection cases and 4,632 deaths reported by the CCP seemed to be “impossible numbers” by many. 

During the White House’s coronavirus press briefing on April 18, 2020, Dr. Birx compared the fatality rates among 100,000 people in Belgium, Spain, Italy, France, the United Kingdom, Netherlands, the United States, Germany and China.

Despite the “extraordinary doctors and nurses and equipment,” the fatality rates in most of the European countries ranged between 20 and 45, and the US was at 11.24. 

However, China was only 0.33, which already included the suddenly increased 50% death toll in Wuhan on April 17.

Dr. Birx pointed out that thanks to the alerts from Italy and France that people with preexisting conditions had a much higher mortality rate, they were able to take some precautionary measures to prevent more deaths in the US. 

She also highlighted the importance of transparency and said, “There is never an excuse to not share information. When you are the first country to have an outbreak, you really have a moral obligation to the world to not only talk about it, but provide that information that’s critical to the rest of the world to really respond to this credibly.” 

In sharp comparison to the 4,632 official death tolls in China, the estimated more than 40,000 urns distributed by the seven major funeral homes in Wuhan and the crematoriums that worked non-stop all pointed to a disturbing reality of much more deaths, which the CCP has been going all out to hide.

When Vice Premier Sun Chunlan and local officials visited Wuhan on March 5, 2020, some brave residents called out, “Fake, fake! It’s all fake!”

The CCP’s History of Lies

From the first day of its establishment, the CCP has never stopped lying to maintain its power and glory. 

Under the disguise of the beautiful lie of “building heaven on earth,” the CCP led people to rebel from tradition and use violence and struggle to “emancipate all mankind.” 

After it lost its rural strongholds and base areas in the civil war with the Kuomintang (KMT), the Red Army fled west and north, to avoid being annihilated by the KMT. 

But instead of admitting its failure, the CCP trumpeted the Long March as a northbound operation against the Japanese and a revolutionary fairy tale. 

The CCP also told beautiful lies about how well they would treat the peasants and protect the capitalist class, but as soon as they took control of China, the capitalist class was eliminated and peasants were stripped of their lands and turned into penniless proletariats.

During the Great Leap Forward campaign in 1958, the CCP claimed that grain production had reached thousands of kilograms per acre and disaster relief offices were thus disbanded, because, with so much grain for consumption, the relief office was no longer needed. 

In the man-made Great Famine that soon followed in the same year, tens of millions of people died from starvation. But in the end, “natural disasters” were the reason to blame, despite that the weather was quite normal during that period.

In the CCP’s modern history, it has blamed the pro-democracy students that were crushed by tanks at Tiananmen Square as causing riots, and the peaceful appeal by 10,000 Falun Gong practitioners outside the National Appeals Office for the freedom to practice their faith as “illegal gatherings” and “siege” of the government compound.

Ben Sasse, a U.S. Senator, said in a statement, “The Chinese Communist Party has lied, is lying, and will continue to lie.”

The current coronavirus pandemic has revealed the CCP’s true face to the world’s people and ripped the sheep’s skin from the wolf underneath.
