When the coronavirus began to be treated as a matter of importance world (around January this year), the first rumors that circulated in the internet linked the origin of the disease (which to this day is unknown) to habits Chinese food. Months later, one of these stories returns to circulation on the internet. According to a video that is going viral on social media, Chinese people are selling frogs out of pickup trucks now that “things are back to normal” (which, by the way, didn’t happen). Proof of this would be the footage that shows the crowd of people in search of the “delicacy”. Read some versions of message circulating online: Version 1: HERE IN BRAZIL THE CHICKEN EGG CAR PASSES! THERE IN CHINA THE TOAD CAR. Version 2: Meanwhile in China, everything is returning to normal, Even the frog car is already passing through all the streets... 30 frogs for $10 Version 3: In Brazil there is the egg car, in China there is the frog car 5 per 10…!! ## Chinese sell live frogs in trucks after Covid-19 pandemic? The video was widely viewed on social media and many people started talking about it. that this would be the beginning of “Covid-20”. But is the video in question really recent and was it recorded in China? The answer is no. Calm down and we'll explain everything for you. So it is. Since the coronavirus emerged in China, there has been no shortage of things here in Boatos.org was a video of “exotic” animals being sold as food and assigned to the country. We have already denied, for example, false stories that said from “dog fair”, “bat being with me” and “rats as food”. Despite that, in fact, some “exotic” animals are consumed in China, the videos were from other countries. As in the other cases, this is what happened. We managed to find out more details on the subject with an analysis in the video. More exactly in “frog truck” sign. In addition to being written with characters that are not are Chinese, there is one word: “Khonkaen”. From there, we searched for name and we arrived at a city in Thailand. When searching for the name of the city plus the words “frog market” frogs), we discovered that, in fact, there is the sale and consumption of live frogs in location. More than that, we discovered that AFP in English also denied the information and confirmed that the sale took place in Thailand. In short: the story that shows that live frogs were being sold in China after the Covid-19 pandemic is false. The images are actually from Thailand and it is a type of traditional commerce in the place. Ps.: This article is a suggestion from Boatos.org readers.
