A translation would be nice.

They all pretty much say the same thing. 200 = dead.

Cargo 200 is from the Soviet Union in Afghanistan referring to dead bodies being taken back. Instead of taking about deaths, they would refer to how many of cargo 200 they were shipping. But the public caught on a while ago. So my guess is it's saying you'll die, and the government will try and cover it up/minimize it.

I see. Thankyou for filling me in, I didn't know the reference.
