Recently I have become aware of something bizarre that appears to be going on in China.
From the Epoch Times on 4/15/25:
Chinese residents across the country continue to reveal on social media that amid ongoing respiratory infections and overcrowding at local hospitals and crematoriums, China’s villages, towns, and even streets in the big cities are looking eerily empty.
In a growing number of videos on Chinese-language social media, people across China are asking, “Where have all the people gone?”
A large amount of video footage shot by Chinese residents has emerged on social media in recent months showing many abandoned towns and villages across the country and empty streets in the big cities, with people questioning China’s real population in 2025.
From the Epoch Times on 4/29/25:
Residents in different regions of mainland China have reported to The Epoch Times recently that sudden deaths appear to be increasing.
Mr. Wang, who declined to provide his full name for safety concerns, told The Epoch Times on April 13 that many people in their 20s to 50s suddenly died. At least two of his relatives have died, he said.
Mr. Cao from Huadian City in Jilin Province, who didn’t reveal his first name for safety concerns, also told The Epoch Times that many young and middle-aged people he knew have died, one after another.
He said that on April 2, a friend of his in Dongying, Shandong Province in eastern China, died without any warning signs.
Mr. Su, a resident of Siping city in Jilin Province in northeast China who only provided his last name for safety reasons, told The Epoch Times that many people died unexpectedly this winter. He said they are of all ages, with the majority in their 50s.
He said that hardly any people are left in small towns and rural areas, and residents have been wondering, “Where have all the people gone?” Ten to 20 years ago, there were people everywhere, but now no one knows where they have gone, he said. Only a few elderly people are still in the villages.
Some suspect that the China made Covid vaccine may be responsible for… but ? After COVID-19 broke out in China at the end of 2019, Beijing mandated the use of domestically produced inactive COVID-19 vaccines and barred access to foreign MRNA vaccines.
Clearly something bizarre seems to be happening in China, but if China’s openness during Covid is any indication, it will probably be a while before we know anything.
