it's wintertime and almost all chinese energy is produced with coal which contains a ton of sulfur I just don't see how any plausible number of bodies, even tens of thousands, could contain enough sulfur to be noticeable

unsure what usual cremation rate is in China but if its 100%ish that implies +700% death rate

I mean at least +700% that assumes all deaths from coronavirus are being cremated

8 Million / 80 / 365 is 273. 273*7 implies just under 2000 deaths a day because of this?

That's 10k cases a day since it sure feels like 20% mortality is where we're ending up. Which puts us right about in line with those leaked Tencent numbers.
