Western media have recently reported that doctors in China are discouraged from citing COVID-19 as the cause of death in an attempt to downplay the severity and extent of the ongoing explosive COVID infection wave.

A number of Chinese citizens spoke to the Chinese language edition of The Epoch Times and shared their personal stories, saying that the regime orders doctors and community workers to falsify the cause of death on death certificates.
