drol 10,035 Posted December 21, 2022 Uhmmm... Vast majority of them are redlinks even on Chinese wiki. My guess is some Chinese editor is copying from Baike, and this number of deaths is the standard for Baike. So, no surge for now actually. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

arghton 6,114 Posted December 23, 2022 There's been atleast 6 Chinese Academy of Engineering deaths in three days as today there were three, some on Wednesday and Thursday. While there are 920 (+93 foreign) members I am pretty sure this is not normal. I wonder if there's been some superspreading event with that community recently.

Ulitzer95 10,974 Posted December 23, 2022 23 December Li Wenhua, 90, Chinese engineer, member of the Chinese Academy of Engineering Lu Qiang, 86, Chinese engineer, member of the Chinese Academy of Engineering Zhang Youshang, 97, Chinese biochemist, member of the Chinese Academy of Engineering 22 December Gu Zhen'an, 86, Chinese engineer, member of the Chinese Academy of Engineering Long Yuqiu, 96, Chinese engineer and academic, member of the Chinese Academy of Sciences 21 December Zhang Guocheng, 91, Chinese engineer, member of the Chinese Academy of Engineering Zhao Yijun, 92, Chinese engineer, member of the Chinese Academy of Engineering A second name (Long Yuqiu, 96) now added to 22 December, so make that 7 in 3 days.

Jiang Hualiang, and he was only 57, so the care home theory is likely not true. None of these guys have immunity. They've been shielded from COVID for 3 years by their government, then were given two doses of the Chinese vaccine (which doesn't work). They're going to drop like flies. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lafaucheuse 3,648 Posted December 23, 2022 On these two articles (here and here) it says that both Li Wenhua and Gu Zhen’an died after «a long illness ». Don’t know if it’s true though. Report of the place of their deaths are incoherent also : one time it’s Beijing (which would be the place of 6 deaths among the 7), one time it’s Pékin. I really think the world forum on scientific development of Shengdu could be for something in it, it was organized by the academy of engineering and the one of science and médecine… Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don’t know if it’s true though. I read some obituaries of the other ones and they mostly said "died after illness and treatment" or "died after illness and ineffective treatment". These are all just easy ways to be without giving a proper death cause. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tower1 73 Posted December 24, 2022 I have a bad feeling about this. I think Chinese are about to release a new virus much deadlier than covid. People haven't responded well to covid pLandemic so it's time to step up the game now. And obviously this is the perfect time for it because they've been going through economic crisis and civil unrest. 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
