This is for UNHRC's consumption. The real test is when burials start in Kuppiawatta, ---- I might add - You can fool the UNHRC some of the time, and some countries all the time, but you cannot fool all the right thinkers all the time.

We were not told that so many had even died. What is reported is only 2 or 4 deaths from the Covid pandemic on a daily basis. At least now let them honor the dead by revealing the truth.
