(KGTV) - Does online data show that China is burning coronavirus victims' bodies en masse?

No.

The evidence in question comes from the website Windy.com which shows elevated levels of sulfer dioxide in the center of the outbreak. Rising sulfer levels indicate a release of organic matter in the air.

But the explanation is much less sinister.

Wuhan has a tremendous number of steel mills and, even though the coronavirus has forced them to stop production, the mills are still idling in preparation for a restart.
