Amid claims of a human metapneumovirus (HMPV) outbreak in China, with reports of overcrowded hospitals and overwhelmed crematories, videos circulating on social media suggest a starkly different scenario. Contrary to allegations of a state of emergency and a "surge" in infections, the footage shows citizens engaging in normal activities, enjoying picnics, and walking mask-free in public spaces. These visuals challenge the narrative of widespread panic and dismiss claims of a severe epidemic in the nation.
