Coronavirus: Iran cover-up of deaths revealed by data leak (nearly triple the reported numbers)

[muriel_volestrangler]

The number of deaths from coronavirus in Iran is nearly triple what Iran's government claims, a BBC Persian service investigation has found.

The government's own records appear to show almost 42,000 people died with Covid-19 symptoms up to 20 July, versus 14,405 reported by its health ministry.

The number of people known to be infected is also almost double official figures: 451,024 as opposed to 278,827.
...
A level of undercounting, largely due to testing capacity, is seen across the world, but the information leaked to the BBC reveals Iranian authorities have reported significantly lower daily numbers despite having a record of all deaths - suggesting they were deliberately suppressed.

1. So what...."Everyone does it..."

Yeah, the US does too...



Sadly, this is likely not just there, but yes, in other Nations and yes, the US.

Experts have here also been saying that the number of COVID infections and deaths are much higher than reported....
