Several videos circulating online have claimed that China is witnessing an outbreak of multiple viruses, including COVID-19 as well as HMPV (human metapneumovirus). These videos are being shared with claims that hospitals and crematoriums in China are overwhelmed, and a state of emergency has been declared over the epidemic. The videos quickly gained traction, sparking widespread concerns. However, the Community Note on X has debunked these claims, stating that there is no credible information to support the assertion that China has declared such an emergency. While it’s true that hospitals in some regions are facing increased pressure due to rising COVID-19 and Influenza A cases, the Chinese government has not officially declared a state of emergency.
