Child Pneumonia Cases Overwhelm Chinese Hospitals
The WHO and the global pandemic surveillance system have issued statements to alert of an ‘undiagnosed pneumonia’ outbreak in China
Chinese hospitals have been overwhelmed with children infected with pneumonia as respiratory illness outbreaks spike across the country.
It’s reported that a large number of medical staff have also been infected.
The reports of the escalation of the “undiagnosed pneumonia” outbreaks in major Chinese cities have alarmed the World Health Organization and ProMED, a large public surveillance system that monitors human and animal disease outbreaks worldwide.
On Nov. 22, WHO issued a statement on social media urging China to share information of the outbreak.
ProMed issued an alert in late December 2019 that brought attention to a mystery virus later named SARS-CoV-2, which had caused the COVID-19 pneumonia outbreak in China. The alert helped to inform doctors and scientists worldwide, including senior officials at the WHO.
At the end of the notification, ProMED staff said, “The pandemic clock is ticking, we just do not know what time it is.”
Hospitals Overflow, Parents Silenced
A large number of posts on Chinese social media have been about students falling ill and being unable to go to school while unable to secure a doctor’s appointment at hospitals due to there being too many sick children.
Some front-line doctors said that they couldn’t even book medical appointments for their own children. However, the ruling CCP has since banned parents from speaking publicly about their troubles.
Many videos on social media show that hospitals in major cities across the country, such as Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai, Nanjing, Wuhan, Liaoning, and other places have been overcrowded.
A nurse in Liaoning Province in northeast China posted to social media on Nov. 21 that the pediatric department of her hospital is full, echoing the situation during the mass COVID-19 outbreak last December when the CCP suddenly abandoned all pandemic control policies and measures.
There are 12 people in her department, nine of whom are experiencing a fever.
A colleague bought a test kit and the test showed two red lines. “Influenza, mycoplasma, and COVID-19 are all positive. It’s so scary!” she said.
Mr. Cheng, a resident of Benxi city in Liaoning Province, told The Epoch Times on Nov. 21 that it is the same across the country now, with many children getting sick, “It’s very serious. There are 40 to 50 children in a class here, and only a dozen of them go to class. The other children are all sick.”
Mr. Tong, a Tianjin citizen, told The Epoch Times on Nov. 21, “This wave of virus outbreak is very serious. Now, the pediatric departments of hospitals in Beijing, Tianjin, Dalian, Shenyang, and other places are all full, and children cannot get treatment.”
He said that the hospital’s pediatric department has been overcrowded for quite some time, and it is getting more and more serious now.
“However, experts do not speak out, and doctors do not tell the public anything either, including Zhong Nanshan (the CCP’s top health advisor),” Mr. Tong said.
There are also videos showing the lobby of Beijing Children’s Hospital also crowded with sick children and their parents. A large number of patients were seen lining up for blood collection, with nurses calling out the number 1,541—potentially indicating how long the time was for the day.
The number that the person who took the video had was 1,887. The person suggested in the video that those who go to the hospital should bring a stool, because there’s no place to sit.
Mr. Wei, a Beijing citizen, told The Epoch Times on Nov. 21 that many children are now sick, and many are hospitalized. “They don’t cough and have no symptoms other than high fever. Many of them have symptoms of pulmonary nodules.”
“All the students in a class are sick, and their family members and teachers are also infected. It is very serious.” Mr. Wei said. “Now, the schools forbid parents talking about it, nor is it allowed to discuss these things in the class group chat.”
The CCP suddenly abandoned its strict pandemic control measures last December, causing a massive outbreak of COVID-19 across China and countless deaths.
Since then, every time there has been a large-scale disease outbreak with patients overflowing out of hospitals, the CCP would come up with a new term to explain it, such as influenza A, pharyngitis, and most recently, mycoplasma infection.
However, Chinese people generally believe that the new names being used may be to cover up new COVID-19 outbreaks.

Poor kids have all been jabbed. To all this is so strange. Why did China embrace corrupt western medecine? Chinese medecine is still considered as one of the top medical systems in the world. They invented acupuncture and herbal medecine that actually works.

Red China has Citizens?
Since when?
The folks living there are far worse off than the Subjects of Briton…who are inundated with illegal aliens…but not the Toxic Levels of Air Pollution that the CHICOMS have built in their rush to an industrial revolution…
This IS widespread Killer Smog…that the CHICOMS FLIM Flam away by falsely describing the casualties as caused by disease vectors. Total Horse Schiesse!!!

Good luck for a second go-round. Far fewer people will be falling for it, and it won’t be because they don’t want vaccines. It will be because more people are aware of the actual agenda and see that it’s all a rinse and repeat script from history.
