Iranian Health Ministry spox tweeted this sketch tracking the #CoronavirusOutbreak in #Iran with Qom as the country's epicenter.

Me:
-Official stats of 92 deaths & 2,922 infections are a joke
-God knows how many countries have COVID-19 cases arriving from Iran

LONG THREAD

1)
 @WHOEMRO: #Iran is “evolving in the right direction” & showing “positive work” against the #coronavirus.
WHO rep. says Iran has had “amazing advances.”

My take:
@WHO is appeasing & aiding the regime in further concealing the truth.

Let’s take a look.

 March 2 - Qom, central Iran

Voice says all these bodies in this morgue washing center are coronavirus victims & many have been here for days.

Northern parts of Tehran, #Iran
Regime officials & insiders live in the Iranian capital's rich neighborhoods where extensive measures are taken against the coronavirus.
All the while, millions of Iranians across the country are complaining of lack hygiene products.
#COVIDー19
WOW!
I posted a video about the rich in northern Tehran enjoying medical supplies against the coronavirus while millions of Iranians don't. Now the video is designated as having "potentially sensitive content."

Seriously @Twitter?

Are you helping #Iran's regime in censorship?
The same with people quoting my tweet.
Some are even told "The Tweet is not available."

Any thoughts @jack?

@devisridhar And Dr. Eric Feigi-Ding, a public health scientist on the faculty at Harvard, warned that nearly a quarter of a million Chinese could be infected by early February.

The “experts” were wrong then, they are wrong now and they will be wrong again.

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.

#BREAKING: Security forces of #Iran's Islamic Regime including #IRGC Ground Force are now sending their troops and military equipment including these MRAPs to the city of #Qom in-order to establish military curfew over #CoronaVirus outbreak & death of two people in the city!
#BREAKING: Another video shows arrival of the MRAPs of #IRGC Ground Force at the entry points of the city of #Qom for military curfew and closure of main roads to the city over the #CoronaVirus outbreak in the city!
Video shows a #CoronaVirus infected patient who was transported from #Qom to #Tehran's Farmaniyeh hospital. He was a high profile patient (probably relative of a regime authority).

As the national Fire Festival ( 20 March) nears for #Iran, senior police & judiciary officials are increasing their oppressive threats in a desperate attempt to prevent the Iranian people from turning these festivities into anti-regime protests.
irannewswire.org/iran-arrests-2…
The #Iranian regime executed a prisoner in Zahedan Central Prison, S Iran. He was married and a father of two children. Some sources have mentioned that he was a former member of Iran's national kickboxing team.
These executions are carried out after Ebrahim Raisi, one of the men in charge of the mass executions in 1988 massacre, was recently appointed as the head of Iran's judiciary by the regime's supreme leader Ali Khamenei
