The Iranian regime is doing anything it can to diminish the seriousness of the coronavirus outbreak in Iran.

Last week they were licking the Shia shrine in Qom.

Today the Islamic leader Ayatollah Khamenei called the outbreak a blessing.

Via Hanif Jazayeri.

Khamenei dismisses #CoronaVirus as "not that big a deal", even calls it a "blessing". Iranians should pray against the virus "as prayer can solve many problems"

Meanwhile the opposition MEK confirms 1000+ #COVID19 deaths in Iran
