“During the days of the extremely stern anti-epidemic campaign, the respected Comrade Kim Jong-un convened a series of meetings of the Political Bureau of the Party Central Committee to protect the lives of our dear people,” Kim Yo-jong claimed, “in which he personally came up with packages of various measures and ways, and visited anti-epidemic theatres day and night to teach clear-cut methods.”
KCNA omitted from its English-language report on her speech that she mentioned that Kim Jong-un had apparently suffered from fevers during the pandemic, which she did not specify was the product of a Chinese coronavirus infection but appeared to imply that it was.
“It is an undeniable fact that a single person or a single object infected with the highly contagious virus may infect many other people in a moment and cause a grave health crisis,” Kim Yo-jong insisted.
