Venezuela: Doctors Say Socialist Regime’s Coronavirus Statistics Are a Liehttps://www.breitbart.com/latin-america/2021/06/08/venezuela-doctors-say-socialist-regimes-coronavirus-statistics-lie/The United Doctors of Venezuela, a non-governmental organization representing anti-socialist health workers, accused the socialist regime on Monday of fabricating its Chinese coronavirus statistics, which remain at press time suspiciously lower than those of its neighbors.
...
... Maduro’s regime claims to have documented only 243,621 cases of highly contagious Chinese coronavirus since the pandemic began in late 2019 and 2,734 deaths. In contrast, neighboring Colombia has documented 3.6 million cases and nearly 10,000 deaths. Brazil, which also shares a large border with Venezuela, has documented nearly 17 million coronavirus cases and 474,414 deaths attributed to the virus as of Tuesday.
Venezuelan doctors say the numbers are simply false.
“They manipulated the reality of the healthcare system. They manipulated the cases. They manipulated the hospitalizations. They manipulated the deaths,” a statement posted publicly on social media by the United Doctors of Venezuela on Monday read. “They are now manipulating the vaccination rates.”
Lying to make themselves look better? When did any other Communist country ever try that?
I had to excerpt the article, for Fair Use purposes. An important point it makes is that Venezuela has been out of more or less every one of WHO's essential medicines for quite a while. IOW, Venezuela's claimed Covid numbers that make it look like they are doing better than surrounding countries are patently absurd. And if they are relying heavily on Chinese inactivated virus vaccines, ummmmm, poor choice.
