Getting arrested for just saying the word coronavirus, allegedly.....

Since I just did a post from Turkmenistan, one of my highest reading countries at the moment, they have been in the news reporting they have no reports of the coronavirus!

And, in fact, the president has allegedly banned the word coronavirus from their vocabulary, threatening to arrest anyone who uses the term, and ordered all of the citizens traveling outside of Turkmenistan to get the hell back home!

Now if these statements are true or not is up for debate because Turkmenistan is a highly internet/news censored country but you can read the recent articles below to find out more.

Read more from this article from The Diplomat, this article from RSF, or this article at CBS news and decide for yourself.
