Another video has leaked out of China, this time a phone call from a nurse in Wuhan.
The desperate woman explains how the hospital is overflowing with patients, understaffed and has no supplies to treat them with.
When the hospital tells government officials about the situation, they simply tell them it's their problem, to solve it on their own, washing their hands of the situation.
Several videos have leaked out now showing the situation with the coronavirus is much worse than the Chinese government is reporting, leading many to question its truthfulness.
The accusations of a cover-up echo the furor surrounding the SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome) epidemic in 2002 when the government concealed the existence of the illness not just from the outside world but from its own people.
