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
April 7, 2020
China has reported no new deaths from coronavirus anywhere 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
transparency"
But despite those warm words from the WHO, there is considerable and persistent
doubt about the official statistics and claims of success
