President Xi Jinping published a timeline of his actions to combat the coronavirus racing through China, which indicates Xi was aware of the outbreak's severity two weeks before making the revelations public.
China President Xi knew severity of coronavirus weeks before going public; Americans trapped on cruise ship coming homePresident Xi Jinping on Sunday published a timeline of his actions to combat the coronavirus racing through China as the Communist Party worked to tamp down criticism of the government's handling of the crisis.
“I issued demands during a Politburo Standing Committee meeting on Jan. 7 for work to contain the outbreak," Xi said in the speech."On Jan. 20, I gave special instructions about the work to prevent and control the outbreak." Li had become a national hero for alerting fellow physicians Dec. 30 in an online post about the emergence of a SARS-like illness, warning them to wear protective clothing to avoid infection. Li was detained by local security police on charges of spreading rumors and forced to sign a document disavowing his statements.
“China has bought the world time. We don’t know how much time,” he said. “We’re encouraged that outside China, we have not yet seen widespread community transmission.”
