Harrowing footage of a patient uncontrollably shaking on a Wuhan bed has been claimed to show a victim of the coronavirus.
The widely-shared video shows the patient writhing furiously under the covers while face-masked onlookers watch aghast.
But it is unclear who the bystanders are – they do not appear to be doctors, who are typically treating victims in full-body hazmat suits.
The brief clip purporting to be captured from the epicentre of the outbreak in eastern China’s Hubei province was circulated on social media as the virus’s death toll climbed to 56.
More than 2,000 people worldwide have been infected by the disease which spawned in Wuhan – a city which has now been placed on lock down.
