Emm what's the story with the fat leg in his profile? Well that's my sense of surprise for the month done.

Nothing to do with death, if you don't have a job, no pay checks, you drop your mobile phone subscription so you can buy food. I don't think the Chinese Gov is sending $1,200 to every Chinese citizen.Very odd. If it's coronavirus related, would 80k infected and 3k dead equal nearly 30 million cell phone subscriptions canceled?
These are Chinas 2 largest providers. Going back all the way to jan 2016, they've never lost subscribers until this year.

This is about 3% of all cellphones subscriptions vanishing in 60 days. What's going on?

Thank you for your post. It is folks like you that truly added value to the community, by digging deeper into the numbers and coming up with true counter arguments to the obvious.I understand your logic but things are quite different in China in that all citizens MUST have a cell phone. I quote from the March 26-April 1 edition of The Epoch Times
"Tang Jingyuan, a US-based China affairs commentator, told the Epoch Times on March 21. Dealing with the government for pensions and social security, buying train tickets, shopping ... no matter what people want to do, they are required to use cellphones. The Chinese regime requires all Chinese to use their cellphones to generate a health code. Only with a green health code are Chinese allowed to move in China now. It's impossible for a person to cancel his cellphone."
The article also suggest that it is possible some migrant workers had two cell phones, One from their hometown and the other in the city they work and so they dropped one when travel restrictions were imposed. But they also raise the obvious question raised in this thread that death may be a big part of the 21 million drop in cell phones.
