On multiple recent days, Iranian regime has officially reported more than 200 fatalities from\u00a0coronavirus\u00a0<\/a>over a 24-hour period. In all likelihood, there have actually been more such days, starting much earlier in the country\u2019s outbreak, that the Health Ministry has publicly acknowledged. Virtually every aspect of that public reporting has been inaccurate since the very start of the pandemic, as the regime sought to downplay its own mismanagement of the crisis while also justifying a premature and hastily implemented reopening.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
