North Korea Claims Zero Coronavirus Cases, But Experts Are Skeptical

"Past epidemics that originated in China have always spread to North Korea, and vice versa," says Choi Jung-hoon, a North Korean neurologist who defected to South Korea in 2012. During the 2003 SARS epidemic and other disease outbreaks, he says, cases in North Korea often went unreported or underreported.

"On the train, there were all kinds of people, North Koreans of every class, who needed to get somewhere," he says."Male and female, young and old, everyone.""During the four months that I was on the trains, I think I found over 500 suspected patients," he says. He also questions North Korea's claims to have sealed its porous border with China. He notes that smugglers go back and forth across rivers separating the two countries.

But we’re going to trust China’s number huh?!

There’s an alternate clame today that Samsung if full lf case.

And lo, the Dear Leader looked at Coronavirus in the eye and shook his head no. Coronavirus, knowing it had been defeated, left the Glorious Kingdom forever.

Who is traveling in/out of N. Korea?

North Korea maybe the only regime that could implement Tyrannical Virus Containment strategy: Nobody to leave their apartment for 21 days and if sick just dies in the apartment. No virus spreads. Epidemic stops.

Yeah that sounds doubtfull almost all that they import will come from their Chinees neighbours, S Korea has bin hit hard but they? Neh the great absolute divine king Kim protects his people with magic and warm wishes right? That this is told for national audiences but why try us?

Only pin worms...

They are as trustworthy as trump.

They lie like Main Stream Media...

pedroferriz3 There are more than a thousand cases in the US, nut goverment only wants us to know that they only had 14 cases.

Yeah sure 😂😂😂

We can’t trust what they say about missles...of course we can’t trust what they say about their people being sick! That was easy to guess!

As in the President of the US ? Who can possibly believe truth out of Kim ?

At least it’s contained

North Korea has the best coronavirus cases 💁🏻‍♂️

'Everything is fine!' *country is on fire

Weird how when you constantly lie about everything you lose all credibility.

My bet is if someone has symptoms they kill them.
