Death of Dr Li Wenliang (李文亮), who tried to issue an early warning about novel coronavirus outbreak, triggers wave of public mourning and rare expressions of anger in China
Some Chinese media outlets described him as a "hero who was willing to speak the truth", while other commentators posted poems, photos and drawings saluting him. "Light a candle and pay tribute to the hero," said one Weibo commentator. "You were the beam of light in the night". An image also posted on Weibo showed a message, "farewell Li Wenliang", carved into the snow on a riverbank in Beijing.
The topics "the Wuhan government owes doctor Li Wenliang an apology" and "we want free speech" briefly trended on Weibo late on Thursday, but yielded no search results on Friday. It would "protect people who have the inborn sense of right and wrong in telling faithful words to the public, and reveal the truth", he said in his post.The Wuhan hospital where Li worked said on its Weibo account that he died at 2:58 am local time on Friday.
A letter to Li from the Wuhan police bureau on Januray 3 said he had "severely disrupted social order" with his WeChat messages.
