Pictures from Chinese people that were collapsing on the streets in China and other situations were shared on social media in the west from January 2020 on.[1][2][3][4][5][6] These pictures added to the fear of Covid-19. These videos were at times taken by other passersby, but also footage from surveillance cameras was shared.
Points of note:
- people in these videos seemed primarily middle-aged persons
- commentators pointed out that some of these circumstances seemed fake (in the sense of "bad acting")
- in other videos there indeed seemed to be a medical emergency
- with some videos it is unclear if these were taken at the time of the coronavirus
- a number of videos had background music, some were a combination of surveillance camera footage and mobile camera (therefore cut for the purpose) [7]
- there was also surveillance footage from what seemed to be rooms of official Chinese agencies,[8] it is unclear how this could have found it's way to western social media
- at the beginning of the outbreak in other countries, similar circumstances have have not been observed
- The first images spread to the rest of the world was by the agency Agence France-Presse, and published in the Guardian on January 31, 2020.
