China and Corona Virus

So, did China hide this fact about the coronavirus from all over the world? The biggest impact is on the coronavirus in China. It is being said that people are not going out of their homes because of this virus. At this time, the Chinese government is facing an allegation that it is hiding data about the Coronavirus case.

China Mobile has lost 7.25 million or 72.5 lac subscribers

Many reports are speculating that China has misinformed the world about the death from Corona and hidden the figures. China’s major telecom company China Mobile has lost 7.25 million or 72.5 lac subscribers in a month. China Mobile recently shared the operating data of the last two months, according to which the company has lost about 72.5 lac users.

According to a report by ezone.ulifestyle.com.hk, China Mobile released the figures for January 2020. In which it was said that the company had 949.415 million users which were 862.000 million less as compared to December.

Speaking of February, the number of users in February 2020 was 942.621 million, which was 7.254 million less than in January.
Overall, China Mobile has lost 8.116 million or 81.16 lakh subscribers in the last two months. Apart from China Mobile, China Unicom has also reduced by 78 lakh users and China Telecom Corp by 56 lakh users. All these figures are for February 2020.

Landline users have also decreased by 84 lakhs

Apart from mobile users, the number of landline users has also decreased by 84 lakhs. In China, the number of landline users was 19.83 crore, which has increased to 18.99 crores after the coronavirus spread. A Bloomberg report also said that there were 21 million mobile users in China.

The big question here is that China Mobile has lost 72.5 lakh users, so it is obvious that these users must have ported their number to another operator.

But there is no report on increasing the number of users of other operators.

In such a situation, people’s suspicion is changing that China has hidden the death toll due to the Coronavirus.
