This report cites as their evidence the two authors (at a minute in) of the exact same paper that got torn apart by this thread as totally lacking professional rigor and being typed up in the tone of a propaganda piece for people who don't know how research papers usually vet their own statistics and claims.

You're making this thread less informative, you can't browse Chinese social media like some of us, the sources you do find turn out to be Steve Bannon and Modi spam accounts, and you should go do something else.

The video is legit and is popping up all over, I just happened to grab it from one of the many Twitter accounts that have posted it.

And it's not just Maca Chad's advancing The Accidental release Theory, this is mainstream South Korean news:

I got this video from a friend in China earlier today. he said it was supposedly recorded in the countryside (possibly outside Wuhan) where people are being sent for quarantine.

This video records a conversation between a doctor and a nurse and is from very early on in the outbreak (at the time the official death total was around 40).

I understand why PJ freaking her(his?)self out and rushing to the thread and reposting every unverified bilibili video from China. Do you think other jaded posters will repost your posts en mass to twitters? No this thread is where information come to die and only the funny bits get quoted. What's your hurry? Pipe down.

Had a patient tonight who got lockdown procedures for possible coronavirus. From an area effected, timeline fit, flu symptoms, etc.

Turns out he just had metastatic lung cancer with mets to the brain.

So bullet dodged, I guess.

for real

I love check this thread on break from my hospital job - where I have to deal with short staffing, untrained coworkers, drug backorders and huge technology gently caress ups that make everything worse

like it took the maintenance people a week to install a new pneumatic tube station (it’s smart! and connected to the internet now!) where it broke multiple times this weekend - so we had to send staff to run around a half mile long hospital to deliver meds in 600 bed facility. needless to say there was multiple delays of critical meds. the maintenance people (who used to be able to fix the tube system) now say they weren’t trained on the new technology so we are all poo poo out of luck till Monday)

this is typical poo poo I deal with every day. America’s hospital systems are already overloaded so if get anything that’s the normal flu but somewhat more contagious and somewhat more severe it’ll be a shitshow

give me unverified videos so I can see my coming doom and get pumped

Five or six years ago they had some interesting insights to how cults functioned. It's sad to see them engaging in precisely the kind of behavior they condemned back then.

See this clip is actually a great example of why I find these various video leaks to be not really convincing, because they make it pretty clear that there's an alternative explanation. If you're a repressive authoritarian state covering up thousands of deaths, yeah, you might arrest and/or disappear citizen journalists exposing your coverup, that response would make sense. But also, if you're a repressive authoritarian state legitimately trying to fight against an unprecedented disease outbreak and there were people spreading exaggerated or even outright fake videos and rumours and then using those videos and rumours to call for open rebellion against the state, you might arrest and/or disappear those people the same way. From where we're all sitting it's really hard to tell which of those things is happening, and until we have more information I'm not prepared to jump to either conclusion--especially since what we've seen of this disease in other countries so far doesn't match up with the wild stories that millions of Chinese people are being cremated every day.
