Zero COVID proves China is literally different than every other capitalist nation on Earth. Even if you don’t believe the official data, the excess death rate (i.e. something they can’t hide) shows they beat pretty much everyone other than extreme outliers like New Zealand.
The excess death rate, again something that can’t be faked, proves China outperformed everyone else.
They can lie an say a death from COVID was actually a heart attack or a stroke or the flu, but they can’t just disappear bodies and pretend they’re still alive.
Manipulating COVID death counts isn’t disappearing the actual deaths themselves. We know deaths still happened, like the Time article said “China’s True COVID Death Toll Estimated To Be in Hundreds of Thousands” - so let us assume that’s completely true!
1.4 billion people live in China. The fact that only a few hundred thousand died is a miracle that almost no other country can match when you actually start comparing numbers directly. China outperformed everyone else when you measure how many people died against how many people didn’t die. If China just let er rip like America did, over 6 million would have died. Think about that.
You misread the article, that hundreds of thousands statistic is only for the most recent batch of COVID. Also, if China and the US are comparable, it would be about 4 million. If China was comparable to another country, like say Ireland, it would be around 2.5 million. My figure of about 3 million seems accurate enough for this argument. Your devotion to this regime is unfortunate, you should consider reevaluating your decisions and take a fresh look at the awfulness that happens to the people of China everyday.
