Fact why crows swarm over China amid of the Covid - 19 outbreak

The Covid-19 Outbreak News - China

    Amid the cornona virus outbreak, there's alot inaccurate news regarding the situation in Wuhan as the fear of the widespread infection intensifies.  Conspiracy theorist were quick to make assumptions regarding the outbreak and use their social media accounts to post inaccurate news which apparently didn't undergo a thorough research.

     First there was the origin of the deadly Corona virus, a conspiracy theorist used a 2011 video of a repair man hired to replace the tile roofs.  In that video, the disturbed bats were seen flying away as the repair man uninstalls the tile roofs to replace them and clean up the accumulated dirt left by the bats that nested on within the gaps of the roofs.  According to the conspiracy theorist, the source of the covid-19 were actually those bats.

     The outbreak of the corona virus emerged on the late part of December of 2019 from the wildlife market of Wuhan and the video used was from 2011.  Indeed bats maybe presumed to be one of the sources of the cornona virus but it there are other theories that are still being considered.  The video that was used to identify the source of the covid-19 is completely dubious.

    Now another inaccurate information related to the Covid-19 outbreak is the "smell of death." Lately there are videos of black crows swarming the streets of Wuhan with a somewhat mobid background music to make it appear horrendous.    According to another conspiracy theorist, the crows were attracted by the smell of burnt bodies while being cremated.  Indeed it was accurate that crematorium workers in Wuhan have to work over time to cremate bodies of those who died of complications due to Corona virus infections as the mortality rate increases.  It wasn't true that the swarming  of the crows took place in Wuhan and being attracted by the smell of death is actually a false claim.

     According to the French agency news, the video that appeared on many media sites that shows crows invading the streets of Wuhan as they were attracted by the smell of cremated bodies is actually false. The video was actually taken in Xining which is more than 1000 miles away from Wuhan.

Pets thrown to death by owners after rumors of animals transmit Corona virus

The Corona Virus Outbreak News - China

      Few of pet owners have gone paranoid and threw their pets to death out of the windows of their tower blocks after rumors of the Corona virus can be transmitted by animals.

     According to residents, they heard a loud smashing sound which woke them up. They thought it was a tire that exploded. The next thing they saw was a dog lying dead on the pavement with blood staining the bricks.

      The horrendous incidents of pets being thrown by their paranoid owners was triggered  after Dr. Li Lanjuan made an assumptions statement on Chinese TV program said : "if pets come into contact with suspected patients, they should be quarantined."

     What makes it worse when local media exaggerated her statement into "cats and dogs can spread the Corona virus."

     The inaccurate and bogus claims that pets can transmit the disease spread like wildfire on social media.

      In order to combat the inaccurate claims, China Global Television Network posted a statement from the World Health Organization about animals in relation to the Corona virus. "There is no evidence showing that pets such as cats and dogs can contract the novel corona virus." Stated by the WHO on January 29.

Melbourne, Australia - On December 2018, former Cardinal George Pell was found guilty of rape of young boys  in Melbourne trial.  Pell was considered to be the third most powerful and influential official in Vatican.  He was found guilty of sodomizing a young boy under the age of 16 and orally raping two choir boys who were also under the age of 16 whom he caught drinking a sacramental wine in the church corridor.

     The horrible incident took place in 1996 when the two choir boys were sexually assaulted by Pell when he was still the archbishop of Saint Patrick Cathedral in Melbourne.   According to the complainants, after leaving the procession, they snuck back into the corridor and entered the priest's sacristy and there they found some bottles of sacramental wine.  Out of curiosity,   began to drink and that's when they got caught by Pell when he walked in. Pell told them something about words of threat reiterating that they were in big trouble.

      Pell maneuvered his robe to expose his penis.  He then moved forward and grabbed one of the boys by the back of his head and forced the boy's head  on to his penis, the complainant told the court.  It wasn't the first time that it happened.  In a different occasion, the complainant was again sexually assaulted  by Pell in the corridor, he was orally raped against his will sometime around 2016 or 2017.  Pell denied the allegations and claimed that he was innocent.  He pleaded not guilty to the charges calling them "a load of garbage and falsehood" in a recorded interview in 2016.

     Pell, stood silent and emotionless when the verdict was reached which lasted for more than a month.  He was found guilty beyond reasonable doubt.  According to his defense attorney, Robert Richter, he would absolutely appeal the court's decision.

     The conviction of Pell will cause shockwaves to the global Catholic Church congregation and is blow to Pope Francis' effort to get a grip on different sexual abuses involving the Catholic priests. George Pell was once one of the Pope's most trusted advisers. He was even praised by the Pope for his honesty and response to the child sexual abuse, but two days after Pell was found guilty in December 2018, he was removed by the Vatican from the Pontiff's group of advisers along with two other Cardinals.
