Human rights group estimates that up to 220,000 Tibetans will die of COVID

“Tibetans are living a nightmare and facing an unimaginable death toll. The Chinese government’s mismanagement of this crisis is endangering lives not only in Tibet, but in China and the entire world,” the report said.

China wants to "Hanify" the population in their immense country. I doubt the CCP really cares if Tibetans, Uighurs, Mongols, or Manchus (i.e. non-Han Chinese) fall to the Grim Reaper.

Quite a tragedy unfolding in China right now.

BTW: This poor kitty doesn't have opposable thumbs, making manipulating these human devices difficult.
