World Trending: China Cover Up Coronavirus


Corona Virus, now COVID-19 started in Wuhan City of China reportedly in a wet market of exotic animals. Chinese government reports that its first case was on December 31. But classified record's suggest that it started in mid-November and about 200 cases at the end of 2019,  according to an investigative reporter Josephine Ma, China Editor - South China Morning Post.

Wuhan City with 11 million people has allowed at about 5 million to travel to-and-from Wuhan to celebrate Chinese New Year together with their families, weeks before Wuhan City lockdown on the 23rd of January. And surprisingly the world believed that China was able to control the situation and later realized that it already spread around the world, and started a global pandemic that spared no nation killing thousands of individuals.

Dr. Li Weliang
Dr. Li Wenliang, a whistle blower who got arrested when he tried to warned the public for the new corona virus at its early stage later died of the virus itself weeks later. Dr. Wenliang's death spreads around China and triggered individuals to seek for freedom of speech as the government is doing censorship regarding coronavirus stories. Communist party of China does not want the spread of rumors and authorities has concealed the truth to the public. And after four weeks of the first infection, China notifies the World Health Organization (WHO) of the outbreak. 

While doing some research in Youtube, I found a recent documentary of a reporter in China Sebastien Le Belzic, entitled "A Quarantine Diary". An inside story how COVID-19 has affect China's capital, Beijing. It gives us an overview on China's way of preventing the spread of the virus. The lockdown was also affecting China's capital from all sorts of businesses. Nothing worst if your are leaving in a Communist country where there are clear oppression and no freedom of information.

Above all this; the quarantine and the series of lockdowns that is affecting the lives of the people but also to the economy of even the superpower nations. The underlying question will be, Did China really lied to the rest world? | bp
