It doesn't pass the sniff test.
I am generally with you on this one - but when the central government realized the magnitude of the issue the PLA took over. They were capable of doing what the left likes - dictatorial control. Perfect opportunity for Xi to get rid of a lot of people he didn't like.

So what this doesn't count - is those that starved to death in sealed buildings or were eliminated by the PLA.

Has anything gotten out about opening any of the sealed buildings - like the brand new quarantine hospitals?

My thought is the draconian measure likely worked, but I would expect the death toll in Hubei itself to be in at least 6 figures...
