South Korea's total is expected to rise further with screening of more than 210,000 members of the Shincheonji Church of Jesus, a secretive entity often accused of being a cult that is linked to around half of the country's cases.

Again, who's to say China isn't simply pointing the finger at those who scored low on their social score system and choosing them as "infected" and then they finish them with a vaccine?

And who's to say that the same isn't being done around the world even in countries where there is no social score system?

What about The last of Us(videogame)?

The world wants to rally together to overcome this "pandemic". Will the US join?

Chinese researchers just confirmed that patients can transmit the coronavirus without showing symptoms. A woman passed it to 5 relatives.

It's starting to sound like governments can pick and choose who actually has the virus. What's more concerning is that in China there is a social credit score system. 

So what if coincidentally all people who are dying also happen to be low on that scoring system?
