Title: On a light note
Post by: Anonymous on March 27, 2020, 07:46:36 PM
As the coronavirus death toll continues to rise, not everyone in China will be in the mood for joking about the flu-like disease.



But what looks like an attempt to lighten the mood, state-run tabloid have shared a fake video on Twitter of people's flatulence being captured on temperature sensors.



The video was actually made in 2016 and the toots have been edited into the footage, but that didn't stop people accusing China of 'censoring farts' and 'intruding and invading on the rights and bodies of their people.



Sharing the clip in a Twitter post, The Global Times suggested cameras used to tackle coronavirus showed people letting rip at the People's Republic's transport hubs. :icon_wink:

Amid the tragic news of the coronavirus spreading in China, the state-run tabloid, the Global Times, has found space for a lighter look at the increasingly complicated lives of Chinese citizens in affected coronavirus areas.



"Can't help farting?" it asks. "Well, better try harder because infrared temperature sensors recently installed in airports and train stations to monitor temperatures of passengers amid #coronavirus outbreak can screen them all."



The accompanying video shows infrared images of people being monitored by temperature sensors set to slapstick music, complete with farting sounds.



Their flatulence registers as red "clouds". Even a dog is caught on camera breaking wind. One woman appears to be checking her phone, handbag on shoulder, when the sensor records a red emission.
