<p class="mol-para-with-font">Residents of epicenter of the coronavirus pandemic in Wuhan, China claim pandemic has claimed 42,000 people in the city alone. Curiously the estimate or the city alone for that time frame is more than ten times the national figure claimed by Chinese authorities.<br />
According to official statistics released by authorities in China, COVID-19 which originated in Wuhan in Hubei Province has claimed the lives of 3,300 people and infected more than 81,000.<br />
Of those, 3,182 deaths were reported in Hubei Province. Those numbers have held steady or weeks as Chinese authorities claim there have been neither new infections nor deaths.<br />
Residents in Wuhan however, claim 500 urns have been handed out to grieving families every day from seven separate funeral homes all serving the city.<span style="color: var(--color-text);"> </span></p>

This means that 42,000 urns could be distributed in that 12-day period.<br />

Another popular estimate is based on the cremation capacity of the funeral homes, which run a total of 84 furnaces with a capacity over 24 hours of 1,560 urns city-wide, assuming that one cremation takes one hour. This calculation leads to an estimated number of 46,800 deaths.</p>
