Officials confirm 13 cases

-2 in Gilan Province

- Two are confirmed dead

My take:
Rest assured hundreds, if not thousands, are infected & the death toll is far higher. Officials are silent due to today's elections.

1)
 Mohsen Dehnavi, the Iranian "doctor" / "Harvard researcher" banned from entering the U.S. in 2017, has now entered #Iran's so-called parliament.

Reminder:
@JohnKerry & chief Tehran lobbyist @tparsi had defended this former IRGC paramilitary Basij member.
@JohnKerry @tparsi 2)
“This individual was deemed inadmissible to the US based on information discovered during the [customs] inspection..."
bostonglobe.com/metro/2017/07/…
@JohnKerry @tparsi 3)
While Kerry & the Iran apologists/lobbyists defended Dehnavi, they never told you that he was formerly head of the regime's Revolutionary Guards paramilitary Basij unit in Amir Kabir University. He has a history of attacking various activists who criticized the regime.

#Iran coronavirus:
Universities closed in 10 provinces.
Schools closed in Tehran for 3 days.
All cultural & sports events, concerts, cinem, plays, etc canceled nationwide for a week.
Q: Then why allow elections to stand yesterday in the midst of an outbreak?

#کرونا
2/ Six dead in three days. Formula for each person dead is 50 infected. That’s 300 people estimated. Govt reports 28 cases positive.
3/ Health officials said virus has spread across country, started in Qom but city is not closed off. They said likely from Chinese workers there.

Coronavirus cases increase in #Iran. 3 in Qom, 1 in Arak, 5 suspected transferred to Tehran. Lack of transparency about how & when virus entered & spreading & why public wasn't informed earlier is infuriating Iranians afresh.
2/ Iranians saying they don't trust public health officials statements about coronavirus outbreak.
Because? The regime lied & covered up shooting down passenger airplane for 3 days.
3/ Compounding the anger is Iranian carrier Mahan Airlines still operating flights to & from China with little oversight from public health officials. Long after most countries have suspended flights from China.

#Iran's Soleimani’s funeral: The hallmark of a theocratic propaganda machine
Taking sheer numbers for legitimacy is an insult to the people of Iran who bravely took part in #IranProtests &lost 1000s of their loved ones.
irannewswire.org/soleimanis-fun…
1. According to #Iran's state-run media, millions of #Iranians attended the funeral of the regime’s top military commander in Tehran. They published pics of Soleimani’s funeral, saying sheer numbers proved ppl supported the regime and its chief terrorist.
2. Mainstream media were quick to push the regime’s agenda. What they fail to mention is the most fundamental feature of the current #Iranian state. It’s a theocracy & dictators are good at forcing the masses to attend propaganda gatherings.
