Coronavirus: Why China´s claims of success raise eyebrows
As Covid-19 cases increase in the rest of the world.China claims new cases within its borders have practically stopped

China has reported no new deaths from coronavirus anywere in the country,for the first time since the beginning of the outbreak.But as the BBC´s Robin Brant Writes,there are lingering questions over how far these figures,and therefore China´s narrative on the outbreak,can be trusted.

for months now, every morning at 03:00, officials in China have put together the latest figures on the spread of the virus to share with the world.As of 7 April,it had recorded 81,740 cases and 3,331 deaths.
the country where the virus emerged has received praise for its handling of the crisis.World Health Organization Director General Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus hailed China for the ´´speed with which [it] detected the outbreak ``and its´´commitment to transparence``.
But despite those warm words from the WHO,there is considerable and persistent doubt about the official statistics and claims of su
US President Donald Trump also said last week that the reported death toll and infections seemed ´´a little bit on the light side``. And for some time US lawmakers have accused China of under-reporting the scale of the outbreak.
As cases rise across the world-the US has already far outstripped reported Chinese cases and deaths-some appear to be looking to China for answers on how to ´´flatten the curve``.
But there is growing concern that China is not being entirely honest about the extent of its infections and deaths.
This mistrust is partly about history-and partly about a lack of clarity that inevitably breeds mistrust.

Changing the goalposts on case numbers

Even if the actual figures reported are considered valid,the empirical integrity of China´s numbers has been repeatedly questioned.
From January through to early March,seven different versions of the definition for covid-19 were inssued by the National Health Commission.
Prof Cowling told me that initial testing focused very specifically on only severe pneumonia cases associated with the wet market in wuhan where the outbreak began.
´´We think the degree of underestimation was greater at the early stage of the outbreak,``he says.Then there areasymptomatic cases-those that don´t show any symptoms .
Up until last week,China did not include these cases in its tally ,even after they had been identified and confirmed.
Prof Cowling said the outbreak on board the Diamond Princess cruise ship in Japansuggested the proportion of asymptomatic cases among those infected could be around 20%.
whether or not the data it´s providing is accurate ,it does look like China is starting toemerge from the worstof this crisis,and it´s clear that the coutry that grave birth to this global outbreak now wants to be seen as the country that can end it.
