Coronavirus is the plague of the 21st century. The reaction of the Chinese authorities to the situation in the country.

Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) is a new type of coronavirus infection that has not previously been observed in humans. The outbreak began in the Chinese province of Wuhan and quickly spread around the world. The media was full of headlines "Xi Jinping 'Spread of Novel Coronavirus Accelerates'." The new infection causes cough, fever, and pneumonia (in more severe cases). The virus is contagious and spreads through the air.

The nature of the coronavirus

Coronavirus is the plague of the 21st century. The reaction of the Chinese authorities to the situation in the country.

Coronaviruses lived billions of years ago, so it is difficult to understand their nature. Scientists have several hypotheses. The most popular says that the infection came from bats. The Chinese have a varied diet, so it is likely that someone ate an infected mouse, because of which the virus mutated inside the body and acquired the property of infecting people. Scientists have found that 2019-nCoV is 96% identical to the bat virus.

IMPORTANT!
Some people believe that this is a planned biological attack. But such a statement is very bold and has no iron-clad confirmation.

Xi Jinping's first statements about the coronavirus outbreak

Immediately after the start of the epidemic, Xi Jinping convened the Politburo and warned that the spread of the deadly coronavirus was accelerating. The country was in a terrible position. Many events had to be canceled, and people coming from infected areas were urged not to contact people and go into quarantine. At first, 56 people died of pneumonia, another 2,000 became infected. Many provinces, including Wuhan and Hubei, have been closed. Exit and entry were strictly controlled by the authorities. Despite this, the coronavirus quickly spread beyond China. Carriers of the virus have been identified in:

  • USA;
  • Thailand;
  • Singapore;
  • Vietnam;
  • Italy;
  • Nepal;
  • France;
  • Dagestan;
  • Chechnya;
  • Russia;

Later, the infection was able to spread almost all over the world (in some countries, all patients were cured and died). The Diamond Princess cruise ship is frozen at sea after a passenger tested positive for the coronavirus. There were 3,700 people on board, 61 were infected (the first was an elderly Hong Kong resident, who most likely caught the virus in Singapore). People were not allowed out of the cabins in order to prevent the infection from spreading.

Indignation of local residents because of the actions of the authorities

Last winter, ophthalmologist Li Wenlian told his colleagues that he had discovered a new type of coronavirus, not yet known to modern medicine. Unfortunately, they did not believe him, they invited him to the police and asked him not to panic. After the start of the epidemic, he also helped the sick, but became infected from another patient (he told about this himself on social networks) and died in February. Initially, the government did not confirm the death of the doctor, but after a while officially recognized it. Li Wenlian was expecting a baby with his wife. So much hatred from local residents to the authorities has not been for a long time. The man is considered a hero and is actively discussed on social networks.

What is the President of China saying now?

The President of China said that the peak of the epidemic in China has passed. The country is recovering from martial law.

IMPORTANT!
According to statistics, older people are more susceptible to infection. Children under 10 do not get sick, while teenagers and young men carry the coronavirus in a mild form and recover in about a week.

As the Chinese president said about the virus, his research is in full swing. The vaccine is promised to be handed over by the summer of this year, many people have already been cured (the first patient was saved with the help of emergency lung oxidation). People began to take off their masks, the "raids" on the shops ended. In negotiations with the United States, the Chinese president confidently said that China would soon defeat the coronavirus.

Is Xi Jinping really infected with the coronavirus?

Despite what the President of China said about the coronavirus, there were rumors in the media that he was sick. Disputes began, someone believed that the president was really sick, and someone that this was a stupid fiction to raise a hype.

ATTENTION!
This information has not been confirmed by anything. The president himself has yet to comment. But the chances that the leader of the PRC is infected are small. Most likely this rumor was launched by the "yellow press".

Total

Coronavirus attracted attention and received the status of a “pandemic” and caused a big stir (in many countries, residents bought different products, shelves were empty before their eyes, and someone even considered it a planned biological attack). The World Health Organization is actively fighting the infection. A list was published for disease prevention and recommended medicines. In some countries, the panic is over, people are recovering. They promise to create a vaccine closer to the summer. It was also revealed that the virus does not like heat and will not last more than a few days without a host. It remains only to wait for official news. But scientists are already predicting the end of the “terrible” pandemic.
